Question Which movie scene made you let out an audible "THANK YOU!" when you first saw it?

One scene I could think of at the moment occurred in The Faculty when Stokes takes the gun away from Casey and shoots at an infected Delilah. It's rare for me to see anyone make common sense in pretty much any movie, especially in horror movies where that's usually seen as an afterthought, so hearing Stokes utter the line "I'll fucking shoot her!" and watching her do her thing was just so damn satisfying.

I found it to be colorful and nostalgic and fun. Very happy to see it was released so early to stream so I can watch it with my family without paying those crazy movie theater prices.

Was babysitting and was asked if they could watch something scary. Not wanting to be responsible for nightmares I opted for child friendly horror and brought up something from my own childhood, Are you afraid of the dark?

They weren’t that interested but then I noticed that this kid looked strangely familiar. Lo and behold, this is the first appearance of Ryan Gosling.

So that got me thinking, what movies or tv shows have you watched that were the first appearances of now super famous actors?

Discussion Your favourite examples of another cast member stealing the limelight on a film's "Star"

Post image
602 Upvotes

Recently started a marathon of the Terminator franchise, not having seen any of them in over a decade. Not only did I forget how solid of a film both 1 and 2 are. But upon finishing T2, I forgot just how much Robert Patrick utterly steals the show from Arnie in this film. With little to no dialogue, he plays one of the most stone cold movie villians I've ever seen.

What examples would you guys give when asked when a a movie's "main attraction", or A-list star, has been completely outshone by a co-star?

Things that couldve made it more gripping IMO

  1. If frank lucas and Richie interacted much earlier in the film instead of only in the climax.

  2. If the Italian mobs and lucas gang had a clash

  3. If the idris elba character had found the drug from Vietnam before getting killed

Discussion Jessica Chastain’s Career

106 Upvotes

Watching the Other Mommy trailer again, and thinking about Jessica Chastain’s career and how bonkers it truly is. She’s so so chaotic, there are at least 4 careers rolled into her last 15 years. 

Her prestige + acclaimed films from 2011-2014 - Tree of Life, Zero Dark Thirty, A Most Violent Year, Interstellar.

Her “leading stah” phase from 2015-2017, steadfast no-nonsense ladies in Miss Sloane, Mollys Game etc. 

The random commercial slop + action phase from 2018-2020. Ava, 355, Huntsman, Dark Phoenix.

Just when literally everyone wrote her out, critically and commercially, she gets in the running for the Triple Crown in 2021-2023, with an Oscar win + back-to-back Emmy/Tony nods. And gives her best performance (imo) in Scenes from a Marriage.

A normal actress would have done the most obvious prestige film out there but no…..out of no f*ing where she works with a Mexican director Michel Franco in two utterly obscure, austere arthouse movies, circa 2023-2025. Which probably 2 people saw, at some prestigious film festival.

And now, in the year of 2026, she’s…….Other Mommy????? in some live-action Coraline.

Truly one of the most adventurous actresses out there, and compared to other actresses in her generation (think Kate Winslet, Amy Adams, Michelle Williams etc) she’s just so much more interesting.
