It shows how straight white men are bad. That's why it won an oscar, buuuuuut I agree with you good for a watch but not oscar good

Grinding Nemo

Disgusting - pooftas and trannys should be gassed! instead we make movies tryna make people proud to take a dick up the ass!!! REEEEEEEEEEEE

>glitched. prices!!!! nons

better than that "yet another black movie about racism"

I mean the acting is good, visually it's really good but it felt like a rip off of Amelie mixed with King Kong.

so far we've had monkey, fish, next time we'll get a white woman fall in love with a giant moskito.

Fuck at least in the movie Her you could understand why the guy fell in love with the AI.

check em, the post should have won best picture. hands fuckin down

...

wut? Is that the main woman of the film??
Movie is more like "Ugly woman fucks a fish because humans don't want to fuck her".

That's what this movie is, essentially the Fish Man is a metaphor for slavery and love between races, aka, Oooga booga, where da white woman at.

totally my dude. white guys should be able to fuck who/whatever they want but white women need to stick to white men.

shitting on popular things to reassure your individuality

/thread

nice b8 m8 i r8 8/8

Actually she looks quite lovely in the movie, she has a really nice smile.

>Genre: Drama, Science Fiction & Fantasy, Romance

Why the fuck did you watch it?
Even if you say 'my partner made me'... Why fuck did you ..actually.. watch it?

Not really, it's not like I don't like popular movies, I enjoyed Thor Ragnarok and Dunkirk. hell I even enjoyed Wonder Woman.
It comes at Night was good , I have yet to see Get Out though.

hefty chuckle

Didn't bother to see it, but I keep wondering why when they come up with monsters like this that are clearly not actually human they assume that they would be biologically compatible. Kind of like everyone in the universe apparently speaks English if you go by tv standards.

agreed! not "best picture" worthy.
I honestly thought it was (Hellboy) Abe Sapien's prequel story for the first half of the film.
I was waiting for them to rescue the waterboy.
The inclusion of the gay artist storyline made absolutely no fucking sense.
but this seems to be the norm now...adding as much gayness to a film/show for no realistic reason.

It was just a retarded fanfic of Creature from The Black Lagoon
I was surprised when the first 5 minutes of the movie was the mute chick finger banging herself silly though

10/10

when the bathroom fills with water...how fucking stupid.

I have a feeling that this was to appease Hellboy fans that didn't get to see fish on elf action in the golden army... Fucking liberals lmao.

> Fuck at least in the movie Her you could understand why the guy fell in love with the AI.
funny how you can't understand the situations you listed that are told from a woman's perspective, but the situation from Her, told from the perspective of a man, you totally get. and you so you totally disregard the stories from female perspective. and you're a man. what a crazy coincidence.

>Kind of like everyone in the universe apparently speaks English if you go by tv standards.
Stargate actually addressed this, tl:dr, It's impractical (even with a linguist) to translate a language barrier every episode, unless the story calls for it. They suspend disbelief by having all humans share a common origin, all non-humans having learnt it from humans, unless otherwise plot directed

This was clearly Abe Sapien: Origins
His mom was pretty hot tho, I'd bang before it got fishified

it's the most unoriginal piece of shit i have ever seen. it had some visual charm but overall it was shit

I see your Abe, and raise you Nem

Problem is that that's one franchise vs pretty much all the rest. Especially the case in any with a basis in space exploration where humans previously had no presence. Star Trek being a prime example in the early series.

Any place I can see this sex secne?

Oh, you're one of those. You probably walked out of inglorious basterds

Citizien kane
Rich boy becomes richer man
That way of describing plot is fucking childish

Yes. The theater

...

Isn't this the point of the title of the movie?

Star Trek begun in 66', they probably pioneered the genre, not surprising there wasn't an industry standard. I think even Red Dwarf 88'+ addressed this

A vagina isn't a container though

No one says it is technically biologically compatible. I don't believe she became pregnant, or that we are even certain she was all human... You have to watch it. Also in the end she
died.

Death by fishy snu-snu

Death by gunshot.

Gotta keep the bloodlines pure.

I liked it. But the Oscars are a fucking joke.

Shape of Water is no better than Del Toro's own Hellboy. Logan was equally as good a film as any of the nominations. It's just elitist bullshit that stops certain genres being nominated.

And Get Out was clearly nominated for being a 'black' movie. A decent but run of the mill horror/thriller and not even a strong film in it's own genre. I'd put it on par with The Visit personally.

Not sure what to call the fish guy.... amphibian? Reptilian? Or maybe actually based on fish? If based on fish dna, the assumption that it would have a penis that would be compatible with the human biology? Same extends to the others really. Point being, the assumption that such a being could have sex with a human is far reaching at best.

Just another way for Hollywood to push bestiality

No the AI in her was actually capable of interacting; It made jokes, was capable of conversations and pretty much available everytime he wanted.

The gender is irrelevant.

We know the shape of its dick, though

>this movie is popular
>I'm not popular
>I hate this movie
>Let's say it's overrated to pass like hipster

Go back watching porn

Yeah, but i bet if there actually were fishpeople, they'd get more women than ooga booga.

That's my point. Why would the assumption be that it had a penis of that nature to begin with. To point, the monster doesn't appear in any way to be a mammal. In that regard, if you look at the biology and mating practices of any of the other possible dna base that it could be, they lay eggs. Often times the mode of fertilization if basically crop dusting the egg location and the existence of a penis of that nature isn't present.

>so far we've had monkey

You mean get out?

Let's not act like every popular movies are good. Spotlight was an obvious Oscar Bait movie and it's probably one of the most boring shit movie I've seen in a longtime.

And no I'm not a christian.

Be a pretty shitty Oscar-bait love story is the shat clouds of DNA at one another.
Or is his dick was barbed, or knotted up like a dog's.
Disbelief suspension I guess.

>Mute woman bangs a fucking fish, gets an oscar.
Best movie summary

You might be joking, but i feel like Mainstream media is really pushing incest.

underrated

If you unironically care about the Oscars or the films they promote then you don't belong on 4 chan you pleb. Hollywood hates us and thinks we are all degenerate freaks for not loving films like "call me by your name" and "shape of water" because they have decided what films are good and bad and fuck everyone else tastes.

Shitty movie defeated by even the most basic of Science classes and biology classes.

Popular? The Shape of Water made $67 million, and only $30 million of that was before it got the Oscar nominations. The only two contenders for best picture that are anything near popular are Dunkirk and Get Out (both $175 million+).

its a film about bestiality. and I agree OP it was seriously overrated.

Crop dust me hard

I couldn't give a flying fuck. Who the fuck would sit through that shit anyway.

My point was, they only ever catered for their own elitist agenda. If they awarded films people actually loved, more people would give a shit.

And belong on Sup Forums? Do I need to turn gay like the rest of you?

It's supposed to be fantasy/fairytale. It's not Planet Earth is it.

Like I said, shitty movie defeated by basic science classes. What exactly is the big difference to this movie vs one of those shitty women porn novels... you know, besides the length of the two.

Curious, what makes you think that beside porn ?

She's mute, he's a fish. Together, they fight... basic biology!

That doesn't make it any better you know... typically in fantasy based movies and fairy tales the other races then to be racist as well, or even just openly hostile to pretty much everyone.

I rather enjoyed this movie. One of the better ones both this and last year.
Together with The Ritual it's the best two releases for me at least in that time period.

So it's shit because the fish dude isn't part of the Ku Klux Klan?

Game of thrones has the Targaryens, who have brought about a bunch of good kings and danyaeris (and what happens at the end of the latest season), also while starting out pretty evilish, Jaime becomes a sympathetic character.

The Flash's weird pseudo-sibling relationship with Iris West.

I don't know how main stream this really is, but a german-made show on netflix i watched had the main character end up with his aunt as love interest because of time travel.

>1. Man/Fish mutant worshiped as a god in some shit hole country
>2. Woman from said shit hole either gives herself to or is raped by Man/Fish mutant.
>3. Baby is born and abandoned by river.
>4. Baby grows up to be crazy mute woman who falls in lust with her dad.
>5. Dad heals closed gills and they live happily ever after.
6. Roll credits

Yeah the Irish/Barry one is pretty weird even though they're not related, I mean it's only weird because Joe considers barry his son and even sometime call him that.

But Idk I don't see it beside Game of Thrones.

This was meant for you :

No it's shit because the creature is more likely to eat the woman than fuck her. That a creature that has no reason to be attracted to a human and would likely be hunted down to be dissected for science, would have a want at all to seek out a human to mate with for any reason is a level of suspended disbelief that enters into B or D grade movie when placing it in a modern setting of any kind.

There was a weird scene in the movie, the creature kills and eat the cat, hurt the nice old guy, and run away.

He comes back, heal the guy and then play with the other cats..

The healing part I understand but why'd he kill the cat but play with the others after?

It's not just that, he seems to see everyone from the west family as family (Joe, even Wally).

But what if the creature is actually a god like they hinted in the movie?
Or the other more likely theory that she is from the same species?
>she was found as a small child down by the river
>she had those perfect slits in her throat where it just happens that his gills are positioned
>they instantly connected on first sight
>he could turn those "scars" into gills again

The creature is also clearly smart, near human level of intelligence.

Gayest thing on Sup Forums right now.

>why'd he kill the cat but play with the others after
Because he didn't know what a cat was, it hissed at him and he got pissed?
Then learned his lesson.
Nothing strange about it,

Explain why the fish looks like a human man.

Either it's a ridiculously improbable instance of of convergent evolution, or some kind of mimicry. The latter case means there's a reason why he looks human, and if that reason involves seducing women, have the ability to engage in some kind of simulated intercourse isn't much of a stretch, given how extreme the mimicry is to begin with.

The other alternative is it's a fantasy, and he's in human shape because fantasy anthropomorphizes everything.

That's the kind of thing that doesn't make sense about the premise. You have contradictory basic instincts and behaviors of the creature in question. Hurts the NICE guy, but comes back to heal him? Why? Being a carnivore or possibly an herbivore given eating the cat, why would the creature assume that the man wouldn't try to do anything besides kill the creature if only in self defense. Basic fight or flight instincts there. Probably the same reason that the creature would hurt the guy in the first place, but most sentient things understand you ether keep away or you finish the job.

>ugh it doesn't make sense
>ugh it's unrealistic

Yeah well that's the point. It's fucking fantasy.
Women fucking dead guys (aka vampires)have been popular in media for decades but she fucks a fishman? AW HELL NO DAT NO REAL BRUH

Nice!

Fuck me, I'm gay for finding her pretty.

...

Being a gay fish is okay

now where have i seen this before... a fishman that wants to bone a white girl...

Back to 9gag kid

Because that's what OP was complaining about..
Fucking mongoloid..

Pretty much sums it up.

It can heal people by touch, it's an humanoid non-mammal ( im not aware something like that exists)

It's as realistic as Godzilla and Spider-Man.
Has anyone ever called the movie realistic, or why is it so hard to suspend your disbelief.

People are idiots. Guess they were expecting a documentary or something.

mimicry of animals by other animals is a defense mechanism, not one for mating. That's also on top of the fact that he's clearly not even a mammal and by all means shouldn't even be compatible.

Entering into the fantasy realm aspect to it, if one thing has been proven repeatedly it's that fantasy settings ether require hundreds if not thousands of years for even non hostile races to get along due in large part to conflicts in culture and blatant racism. Hell just look at man kind. Fantasy setting or reality we're still notoriously racist at large and have problems getting along with our own species let alone something that isn't even human.

>Godzilla and Spider-Man.
That makes no sense. Gozilla's big greenish dong would be just too big to fit in Spidey's ass, and if it were the other way around Godazilla wouldn't even feel it.

>movie about Woman banging fish monster
> not original

Call it what you want but at least get a fucking dictionary before you do it, mongoloid

Not a very unique concept

youtu.be/HMde_PHlSzs?t=37m41s

Fish monsters fucking human women Is fucking common.

Consensual sex with monstrous beings, also not common (Beauty and the Beast and stuff like that).

The thing is Del Toro is actually an excellent director so I understood why he won. And I don't think his was about white men being bad... Gary Oldman won best actor the same night for his performance as Churchill, one of the best white men to ever exist. And Churchill was pretty racist against Indians IRL and the movie didn't even bring that up. And Sam Rockwell won for playing a white racist (who really doesn't even stop being a racist by the end of the movie) in Three Billboards. So I really didn't see an anti-white thread in the show last night. Most of the winners were still white. Del Toro is a visually stunning director who makes some kickass movies. He was rewarded for his technical ability, not the color of his skin.

Implying that Godzilla or Spiderman are treated as anything but popcorn flicks and takes seriously at all? Godzilla also isn't being based on the giant reptile trying to fuck as the basis for the movie(s).

That's false. Mimicry of other animals can be a defense mechanism, but there are many other types. The angler fish uses a fake fish as a lure, for instance. Some ants look like other ants to hide in their colonies. A fishman attracting a human woman most likely finds some evolutionary advantage, like security or a protector, in pretending.

The other alternative is gene transfer. He's a parahuman, a human base stock with animal genes. Improbable naturally, but pretty common in transhuman genetic engineering.

Your argument that fantasy races are always racist is silly. Look at how many selkies, mermaids, fairy wives, angels, pearl wives, and so exist in folklore around the world.
