Everything Everywhere All at Once
 
One of the best, most unique movies I've seen in a long time. Not for everyone. If you are looking for something that is chaotic, brilliant, insanely funny, absurd, meaningful, existential and just plain everything everywhere all at once, this movie is for you.

Looks crazy. Looks like it's got a good chance of being entertaining.

LWJ 03-30-2022 08:55 PM

Shaun, you should write ad copy. I’m hooked. Thanks!

svandamme 03-31-2022 12:33 AM

thanks for the tip, looks great
the moment of split person looking at herself reminds me of that fresh blotter of LSD that kicked my ass that one time

Norm K 03-31-2022 03:26 AM

The title seems appropriate. I'll definitely watch it, while hoping for the enjoyment promised by the trailer.

If that was Jamie Lee, let's hope she keeps the twins under wraps in this one.

And did I see the kid from Indiana Jones?

“Everything we do is a stunt in some ways,” Daniel Kwan says, when I ask whether casting Ke Huy Quan, the now-grown up actor who once played Short Round in Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom, in his movie was an example of stunt casting gone right or some special knowledge he possessed. “But then the stunt becomes earnest.”

He's Short Round ?? very cool !
I thought he looked a lot like JAckie Chan, like a younger brother almost

That trailer was enough to pique my interest, definitely have to check that out.

I don't know about that but it is fun to put all the right words together and just the right amount, fewer the better, so they actually mean something when put all together.

I think you will really enjoy the movie.

Anyone seeing it, post your thoughts. It's definitely one of those movies that you get it and it strikes a chord and you love it or you leave the theater saying WTF.

I'm seeing it again Saturday night. It might be a 3X movie movie but 2 is probably enough to leave it special.

Seahawk 03-31-2022 02:35 PM

I am in.

Shaun @ Tru6 04-03-2022 05:38 PM

So, for me, there may not be a limit to the number of times I can see this movie and both appreciate it and take something new and thoughtful that sparks both introspection and inspiration. It definitely needs to be seen a minimum of 2 times for anyone who enjoyed it and got it, the first time. Second time allows for a deeper degree of absorption, at least for me. Third it becomes more comfortable and you can have a conversation with the movie while it's playing. I think I'll take a breather at 5.

astrochex 04-04-2022 12:43 AM

Looks worthy.

Shaun @ Tru6 01-26-2023 04:15 PM

11 Oscar nominations. Seeing it again for the 9th time Saturday night in the theater. This movie was made for INFJs.

I just borrowed the bluray disc from a friend today.
Should be interesting.

Good:
-Michelle Yeoh..okay.
-Daughter seeks Mother love..okay.

Then:
-A series of continuous random schizo screens which made even my acid-marinated head explode in terror.
-Random plot sequences which dont make sense and ceated to induce chaos and uncertainty in the viewer. To accept any new thought...
-Then dudes kung fu fighting with dildos swinging from their anuses. Um. Yeah. No. Hell no. That is not normal. And never will be.


It's not public library material which children should have access to.
Just like Charlotte Rampling in Benetta (basically lesbo christian nun porn with full nudity in many scenes, forced rape, some weird suggestion of god's morality, and none of it in a good way)
It should be banned.

At some point a viewer must be able to push the on/off button with material which is not beneficial to their brain.

Simple response is: Don't watch it.

I'm sorry, what? I don't think they included that detail in the trailer. I was telling my wife about it from this thread and she said "I might be interested," but on that note, I'm not sure that she would.

OK, I found a short clip of the butt plug/phallous fight scene. It's not that bad. I'm more curious (about the movie) than anything else. I read a short review to the missus. She's curious (about the movie) too.

I don't know how to quit you either, Texas.
Watch it with your son. Or grandson these days. Teach him how it's done right. Something you can enjoy together.

SMH.

cstreit 01-26-2023 05:35 PM

THe scene with the rocks was amusing. :)

LWJ 01-26-2023 06:01 PM

So, after reading Shaun ranting about this, it was my most anticipated movie of the last 12 months.

Saw it about a month ago. It was great. Thanks for the heads up!

Rusty Heap 01-26-2023 06:21 PM

Over the top, Bizarre is the word I kept repeating.


I watched it twice in 5 days.

it's the sort of movie that will attract a cult following asking "what did googly eyes on rocks" reeling for years.


once again, BIZZARE! I loved it and would love to buy the DVD/Blu Ray if they included some blooper and un-cut scenes.

john70t 01-26-2023 07:11 PM

Everyone bored loves a puzzle to figure out.

So after watching this 20x in slo-mo, analyzing every nuance and genuflection of the creator's intention, what have you gained in life?
Something useful?

911_Dude 01-26-2023 07:21 PM

^^^^^^ I recommend you dont watch it. And dont watch Letterkenny, that is also being discussed. I think both are awesome, but I can see how some would not. To each his own.

john70t 01-26-2023 07:54 PM

Oh I've watched it. And seen/experienced plenty of other things over the years. Trust me. I'd get banned for describing it here. This isn't the place. Some here have experienced much much worse. I also like to bite at the bit of morality and will probably continue to do so. My brain has a thick layer of scar tissue which keeps it numb. But at some point there is a time for self-examination and decide if something external makes oneself better or worse afterwards. Or more succinctly, if it is good for society as a whole. At some point there should be a line. Everyone has a different line. That is all. Enjoy.

It may already be out

This references an official blooper reel so the DVD probably has one. Others on YT

It looks like Amazon's got the DVD for $7.50 (BD $15). Or you can buy the download for $20, but I don't see a streaming rental option (which is a rip-off, IMO, since most streaming rentals only allow a single viewing).

you can just say you didn't get it.

its a fantastic movie. dealing both with internal trauma, and generational trauma, in a very kind and forgiving way. it confronts nihilism and perfectionism so well. my personal favorite scene is between the mom and dad in the universe where she became a movie star. its so quiet and gentle, and powerful, and kind.

i can see why this message would be seen as dangerous to some.

Rusty Heap 01-27-2023 04:44 PM

it's playing on Showtime.

What ever happened to a good old fashioned Western where the Cowboys kill all the Indians, yeah?

What’s better for society? The freedom to create or the filtering of every creation through some imaginary morality filter?

Besides,,who would create that filter, what morality ‘compass’ would be used and who would make the decisions to in your words,,, Ban it?

“Personal Responsibility”. It’s not just a convenient buzz word.

flatbutt 01-27-2023 05:27 PM

On a complete tangent the title reminds me of a Latin saying..."omni, omnibus, ubique" Everything for everyone everywhere.

So, this title might be "omni, ubique, simul" or some such. FWIW this is just one of those things that amuses me.

Carry on.

I vote we pick a militant, non-binary, fluid gendered 19 year old that uses the pronouns ze, zem, zey.

I think they would definitely do The best job.

And all this time I was here completely unaware your side has always been the protector of the family unit. Nekromantik and On Golden Pond were similar stories of love compassion and finding togetherness. Debby Does Dallas is classic visual literature and should be required watching for elementary school arts appreciation. How mistaken I have been all this time. Fly in the soup to eating fly burgers. Yum.

Can we just have one thread that you don’t show up to insult or argue with someone?

Heel n Toe 01-27-2023 10:22 PM

No thanks. Movies with ridiculous "fight scenes" like this...

<iframe width="921" height="497" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-zPZ6QV80FU" title="Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022) - Alpha Waymond Fights The Security [2/2] | HD" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe>

...where one guy is fighting multiple others and they encircle him, then he fights them one at a time and you can see the others jumping around trying to look menacing as they wait their turn to get kicked or punched... nah, I'm out.

I'm sure there are enough other scenes that somewhat redeem the movie, but... nah, I'm out.

I thought it was an entertaining movie. I do admit to having a couple of brief naps through the showing...

Shaun @ Tru6 01-29-2023 05:51 PM

Theater was packed

9th time was the very best

A fitting tribute

I finally saw this movie. The first five hours were okay, the next three hours were sleep-inducing, and at "Part 3" I felt true despair.

Seriously - I liked the actors' performances a lot, there were interesting aspects, but - and this is just personal preference, no panty-bunching - I just a) don't like Matrix-style stretching one instant of action into minutes of flash-backs, introspection, and dream-states, and b) don't like plots that equate some pedestrian human relationship issues (mother-daughter, etc) with the fate of the universe.

My family thinks I'm a total heathen.

You are far too well-adjusted for this movie. :)

stomachmonkey 02-25-2023 06:28 AM

Loved it.

At first you think, i should be baked for this one.

Then it’s over and you think, Thank God i was not baked for that.

And the story was as simple as it could get.

It’s about a fractured relationship between a mom and her daughter.

That’s it, nothing more to read into it.
