the hype for the movie has them thinking they saw the light and are better because they didn't like the movie like the majority did

I mean the choctaw seemed more afraid of the vampires

He definitely didn’t like the KKK, but he changes tactics to get in once he realizes they are KKK. I still think he woulda bit em anyways, just would have used different tactic rather then ā€œthem dirty, injuns are tormenting me, also want some gold?ā€

violet anchor
#

they were afraid cause they knew he'd bonk their asses in the dark, with the sun out they would've turned his ass into dog food

I wonder if rammeck is semi immune to the sun, or if he just has a higher durability compared to lesser vampires

#

Since hes implied to have hauled ass accross a fuckin desert in broad daylight and dosent look that burnt

#

For me personally, I didnt watched any trailer or read synopsis, i went straight in and I was in till halfway through and enjoying it. Then all of a sudden we have vampires now? I was like wtf is even going on where are they going with this. It was too on the nose and not subtle enough for me

stray swan
#

Which also I really did like the design on making the vamps truly monstrous looking when they showed the angler fish like teeth n glowing eyes. Very nice change from the twilight vamps we’ve gotten shoved down our throats

acoustic spoke
#

isn't the implication as he lands that maybe he flew there... maybe turned into a bat

violet anchor
#

redneck vamps ahah

he does fly in that other scene though, there's no jump takeoff

violet anchor

I think like that too, boy was older, stronger, kinda goes together

stray swan

#

Rammeck can fly but we dont see any evidence that he can turn into a bat i think

violet anchor
nocturne vector
#

So in theory does that mean that stack could endure the sun if he gets old enough?

violet anchor
#

anyhow, seeing the hype around the movie I really came in the theater with one goal in mind, hate on the movie, it didn't happen tho

nocturne vector
#

Because rammeck was fuckin flying for an entire day it seems since he reached the house of the couple a hour before the sun sets so man was jus tanking the sun for a whole day basically

violet anchor
#

that must hurt like hell tho

nocturne vector

#

how long had they been hunting him though. they might have just dug him up and chased him around a cave all day

#

I think this shows a misunderstanding, they don’t fuck with yt ppl… my impression is smoke and stack don’t trust yt strangers. The reason Mary is diff is because she knew them since young.

I wanted to be cool but I'm a sheep now

#

Some people outside my theatre were complaining that it wasn’t a vampire flick till the end and a lady sitting next to me got SUPER frustrated cause she couldn’t tell Smoke and Stack apart. So not for everyone I guess.

nocturne vector
#

Their deadass dressed in red and blue so you can tell em apart tf

stray swan
#

Completely different style hats and personalities too lol

nocturne vector
stray swan
#

Call me weird but I thought smokes hat was rounder cause he was more soft and stacks was sharper cause he was a little firmer/no nonsense

#

šŸ˜‚

nocturne vector
#

I think their outfits are based on the gangs they worked for in chicago

#

Saw the idea that smoke worked for the irish and stack for the italians

stray swan
#

I was confused cause in the beginning I thought there’s no way this dude is playing BOTH characters, they were so unique. Then I sat next to that lady šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

nocturne vector
stray swan
#

Yea that definitely makes sense with the Irish beer, Italian wine dealeo šŸ˜‚

nocturne vector
#

I think they both joined different gangs just so they can steal their money and then leave while they duke it out

stray swan
#

Damn I guess if they took the immortality route, the mob couldn’t really do shit about it. That woulda been funny AF.

#

In a sense the juke joints literally built with blood since the twins just caused a full on gang war back in chicago just to fund it

stray swan
#

Did anyone understand the significance of the Juke floor being washed when they purchased it? It was presented like foreshadowing but it flew over my head.

violet anchor
#

the guy selling didn't wanna tell it was a slaughterhouse

#

it wasn't no barn or nothing

nocturne vector
#

Wasnt it a saw mill?

stray swan
#

OOOOOOOHHHH I thought it was a sawmill

#

But they were prolly lying lol

violet anchor
#

no they got lied to, its exposed later on and then back again when the boys roll back to sweep the black folks afterparty

#

they sold them a slaughterhouse and wanted to kill 'em all at the end, keeping the fat stacks of course

stray swan
#

I understood the kkk plan, but it really blew past me that it was a slaughterhouse.

nocturne vector
#

Ngl the kkk would have been fuckin rekt either way

violet anchor
#

I forgot who said it but I remember the words

stray swan
#

I was all ā€œhow do the clean floors help them kill everyone?ā€

#

Rammeck said it when he was trying to make the remaining members leave the juke joint

#

He revealed the kkks plans

stray swan
violet anchor
#

I realize this more often now but since I'm watching the movies in english and they're subbed, I get to see everything that was said but like good lord sometimes you cannot hear shit

stray swan
#

But I thought he was just saying that cause the kkk intended to kill everyone the next morning

violet anchor
#

think its linked

#

Yk i just imagined, what if the kkk pulled up and just got fodderized by the vampires and then the vampires just went back to waiting to be let in

Which i think would have failed either way

#

Remmick had enough vampires to deal with the Juke. He should have sent the KKK couple vamps to go turn the rest of the KKK. They would have let their grandkid and his wife in for sure.

nocturne vector
#

Yk the whole movie coulda ended allot sooner if rammeck and the kkk coupe just did a rocky road to dublin performance infront of the juke joint

#

Im sure the twins woulda left to check out the fire dance number rammeck was busting out

HOLY SHIT

#

Great fuckin movie

#

Sinners > Nosferatu

#

That dance hall scene with the past and future spirits was like, one of the coolest things i've seen in a movie in years

#

Im trying to figure out the oral motif? Was it like the power of the mouth?

#

Theres like 6 different scenes with references to oral sex, and that paired with prayers and singing and the bites of the vampires, it felt like a very intentional repeating motif related to mouths

#

I thought before seeing the movie that the vampires would be a sort of metaphor for rich whites, given the subject material, but it was interesting that it wasn't the case. Despite their evil the vampires wanted a full "family" regardless of color

i was about to comment

something like

"what does nosferatu have to do with anything"

#

then I remembered

#

sinners

#

is a vampirish

#

ionic jungle
#

They're also two of the biggest horror movies in the last year

#

Sinners was smart to keep the camera on those TEETH

#

I hated how we didn't even see Orlock's fangs until like 5 seconds before the end of Nosferatu

#

how can you hide the damn fangs in a vampire movie

#

The vampires were also oddly compelling and empathetic in a way?

#

Like they were evil but I felt like their desire for "family" was authentic

#

I didn't enjoy Nosferatu

ionic jungle
#

I liked it a lot, but didn't love it

#

I was hoping it would be a little more different than other adaptations of Dracula

#

I prefer the 1977 Nosferatu

stray swan
#

I actually really enjoyed Nosferatu. But Sinners blows it out of the water. It’s almost unfair to compare them. The only thing both films had in common that I liked was the vampire(s) were alluring without being over the top attractive ā€œtwilightā€ types. Orlock was downright repulsive, but there was still an odd draw to him that I feel like it’d be normal for these creatures to have.

#

Yup! Michael A Jordan tells his cousin how to go down on a woman, he uses that later, the white girl chastises Michael B Jordan with "you stuck your tongue in my cooz", there was a few more too

#

It was too specific to be a broad "sexuality" motif like most vampire movies have

ionic jungle
#

Also Hailee Stanfield with fangs and blood dripping from her mouth.. was really really hot

Oh yeah, I also loved the homage to The Thing with the garlic eating scene, and the usage of the shot from The Shining when Vampire Stack is locked in the storage closet

I haven't seen that other film, so admittedly cant comment on that portion of this paragraph at all

narrow zealot

I dunno. The movie didn't land for me. I could see what he was going for but it just didn't do it for me. Didn't like the garlic scene. I get it the thing and faculty. Then that "oh are you sure that was blood?" Didn't vibe with me at all

mild storm
#

"a lot of people dont know about the reference" ....but the film outright shows that through the mere events, no?

Also

They were burnt because of the sun, not because he was stabbed.

And remember, its mentioned vampires CAN return...they exist even if a physical form is destroyed.

And I mean...it WAS a massacre...everyone except Smoke and Sammie died.

But i do understand..not every film is for everyone! If it didnt work for you it didnt work for you

just cause both are vampire films, doesn't mean its easy to compare

As for smoke letting stack live. I'm guessing stack wasn't running around eating rats through the years. The blood on smokes hands is probably a lot.

But yeah plot armour I feel there was a lot of that.

I am a little confused because a lot of these are just you asking questions rather than stating the inconsistencies or contradictions
the vamps dying when remmick got stabbed tho I was confused about that moment because they all reacted when he got hit with the guitar so I thought huh? are they linked through pain. But it was just that when he got hit the first time, they all psychologically felt the pain but then after he dies the sun rises and that's what kills them all

acoustic spoke
#

why would the kkk show up at night

narrow zealot
mint hedge
#

"oh they gonna booze up all night and be tired all morning lets kill them all while they sleep"

#

vamps died when the sun rose lmao

#

not when remick got stabbed

#

How did 6 people with zero training (except for michael b jordan) fend of 20 vamps when they stormed the barn. Should have been a massacre.
it was a massacre everyone died except sammie

#

how is that even a question

#

only smoke survived the vamps

#

he died too

#

oh nvm lol others already answered the question

mint hedge
#

its fine if you didnt like the movie

#

its just a problem when you ask questions that were answered in the movie

#

i could say smoke could get past the vamps cause of the guitar blow to the head made them staggered but that prolly sounds like a cop out to you and i get it it;s fine lol

vestal lily
#

Like yeah, she ran away

#

But the morning was just around the corner lol

#

Stack probably had to stay inside the barn until the next night because he obviously couldn't get out, and when he finally did he had to walk past Smoke's body :c

mint hedge
vestal lily
#

Don't quote me on this, but I think there was a shot of her in the mid credit scene where she was running away

#

Or she stayed in the barn as well idk

#

Either way, lol

#

I honestly don't mind plot holes, I don't mind using my imagination a bit if it's not too outrageous

narrow zealot
# vestal lily Don't quote me on this, but I *think* there was a shot of her in the mid credit ...

No you're right there was a shot of her running off. The question to ask is Why did she run???? What possible reason did she have to run off and leave stack and all her vamp brothers and sisters and even her vamp lord remick. If she was so keenly aware of the sun why werent the others. Anyways maybe it's my ocd. Maybe inconsistencies and things that don't fit bother me. Or maybe I'm just no fun. Who knows?

No agree the kkk are cowards and that's why historically they attacked at night. And they would wear their robes. It's much easier than in broad daylight. Look it up. Why wait till morning when you could set the barn on fire and shoot anyone that comes out. What if everyone left before you got there. Was supposed to be a slaughter house right? Why not catch people while their in the throws of music and booze. At least that's what I feel would happen. Anyways, maybe your explanation is what coogler thought.

acoustic spoke
#

the kkk come at night and lynch a single person or a couple of guys, but even though they are dumb fucks they are also cowardly enough to never go into something outnumbered

narrow zealot
#

They wouldn't have to. They have guns. The party goers dontt. All they would do is hide in the bushes and pick people off. They wouldnt even need to hide in the bushes.. A crowd of unarmed party goers wouldnt stand a chance against even 5 people with guns. And they were alot more than 5. School shooters and club shooters are usually just 1 person and the damage is a lot. Bullets beat bodies any day. I dunno man. To me waiting till morning makes no sense. What if the majority of people had left.

Okay you know what? I'm gonna go watch the movie again. To see if I was just nit picking. No use me ranting about it

mint hedge
#

hell yeah

#

better watching movies than talking about them

acoustic spoke
#

I feel like you're really trying hard to justify why a couple of white guys would show up to a party in the middle of the night (a party run by notorious gangsters, who are likely to be quite armed). I feel like if in the movie the kkk had showed up at night you'd say that was a plot hole too and ask "why did the kkk show up?"

#

I like the movie well enough. It's just people who say plot holes that aren't actually plot holes are the reason a movie is less good is a pet peeve of mine.

It's a good schlocky period vampire movie that riffs on movies that came before it. But full of "plot holes" it is not

narrow zealot

Fair enough

I think that is part of the issue… ur looking at IMDb/letterbox ratings or what ever rating site…etc with regard to merit of a film. It isn’t the end all be all, especially with how easy it is to manipulate scores.

It can be a 4/5, 4.5/5, 5/5 and not be as good as godfather right?

Idk anyone that is saying this is the greatest movie ever made, it’s def impressive far from the greatest.

#

The juke club scene, the one that everyone is glazing over is imo lame in that its wholly inconsequential. If Coogler is actually a mad lad, he would work the surrealist elements into how the film would be presented throughout, or give these elements actual thematically meanings. But as it stands it screams "I can do surrealist arthouse scene too" energy.

#

Also are just gonna ignore the fact that Coogler put fucking Wukong in there literally because two of the characters happened to be Chinese?

This is like if they had some Indian people helping out and they just put some Bollywood shit in there next to the blues stuff. No one thinks that's kinda fucked up?

I'm with you Lyla. It doesn't make any sense. But no one wants to mention it because it would mean their perfect movie actually has flaws. For me, it's fine to like it but atleast be honest about it. The movie had a lot of scenes like that where shit was just done out of convenience. Like Mary conveniently running away so that she survived in the end. Why would she run? Why was she the only one? Why would she leave stack behind? Its not like all her vamps were dead and she felt outnumbered? And if she ran because she was aware of the time wouldnt everybody?

exotic vector
#

She didn't leave Stack behind though

# narrow zealot I'm with you Lyla. It doesn't make any sense. But no one wants to mention it bec...

What’s crazy is I LOVED this movie. Seen it 3 times in theatres. The imax experience was MAGICAL. But there definitely were plot flaws/things that didn’t add up 100%. For me the big ones that you have to STRETCH to explain is Smoke appearing out of nowhere to stab Remmick and why Stack/Mary ran away when first turned and did not make ANY attempts to bite Sammy or ANYONE else at the juke when they are part of the hive mind. And if they WERENT part of the hivemind, why were they doing Remmick bidding? It makes sense in the END that Stack and Mary are the only ones left in the hive so they can pretty much do what they want…..doesn’t make sense they had this ability to ignore hivemind and make deals while Remmick and others are still alive.

exotic vector
#

they were able to ignore Remmick's hivemind at the end because that was around the time Smoke had killed Remmick, the hold had dissipated

stray swan
exotic vector
#

It wasn't that far a distance from the Juke house to the river

#

and it's been established that Smoke is a combat vet, same as Stack, and was shown to have quick reflexes and good combat skill against the vampires throughout the whole movie

stray swan
# exotic vector they were able to ignore Remmick's hivemind at the end because that was around t...

Pretty sure Remmick was still alive when Smoke made the deal with stack. Because right after that deal is made, he runs to Sammie, and stakes Remmick from behind. Also, when they are first changed, hivemind is very much in tact and yet Mary decides sexy time with stack is more important then the hivemind goal of turning Sammie. Then both stack and Mary decide running out of the juke is the best option instead of biting as many people as possible (hivemind goal).

#

Again, I can make stuff up that fits with the narrative to try and explain, but it’s a stretch and these are things that wouldn’t have had to been explained if they were avoided/done differently. I LOVED the movie, but these 2 things could have been better. Wouldn’t be surprised if there are some nice deleted scenes in a directors cut later

exotic vector
#

Okay so the structure of the order of events is that yes Remmick was still alive with Smoke made that deal, what happened in between that moment though was Smoke making his way out of the juke joint and running to Sammie. Also, since its a hivemind you can equally argue that since Remmick was focused mainly on Sammie and thinking he'd won, he had not considered or even noticed Smoke coming up to him, it also entirely possible that Smoke swam under and came up from behind him

#

ALSO, considering that Remmick was injured thanks to Sammie hitting him with the guitar, he was already distraced, and since, hivemind, the hivemind was also distracted

stray swan
#

The fact that this is an issue at all shows they should have spent just a TINY bit more time exploring the hivemind and how it worked.
But hey, I’m not complaining. I friggin loved the film. I really hope there some extra footage released šŸ˜„

Well said Lyla. I like the way uou watched the movie. You can love it. And still call it out when needed. These days everybody is all do or die. The thing i support can do no wrong and any one that points out flaws is an idiot that should be shunned. Its called film criticism for a reason. Objectivity has to come in. Personally I didn't love it. Not that I thought it was shit. It has bright spots the cinematography, the music, a couple of the performances ( Delroy Lindo, Jack O' Connel and Wunmi Musaku for me). But story wise certain things didnt land. I had the same issue with US and Nope. Also coogler made certain choices that i didnt agree with. But thats all personal preference so no issues with that. All in all I thought it was decent. The best of the year so far? Its a toss up between this and Mickey 17. But i have a feeling over the coming months neither will be high on my list.

hollow rose
#

It may feel like deep nitpicking but things like these which seem tiny, impact an important scene which comes later on so it's necessary to discuss.

stray epoch
# stray swan How is it fucked up to represent someone’s culture? O.o

Because that's not representing, it's reducing it enough to use it in your movie as a set piece. Does Chinese opera have any significance in the movie? The whole analogy is about blues and music that inspired and inspired by blues. It even uses the Irish music as an antithesis, so what is Chinese opera doing here besides "hey we got two Asian characters in the scene"

stray epoch
#

Also, does becoming a vampire make a different character? The film seems to suggest that is the case (which is why they're killing all the vampires, because your friends are dead, they are no longer your friends, just people with their memories)

But in the post credit scene the film still treats stack as the same character? Otherwise the whole dialogue would've made no sense. So were they actually just killing their friends when they killed all the vampires?

stray swan
# stray epoch Because that's not representing, it's reducing it enough to use it in your movie...

I disagree highly. The entire point of that scene was to show how the power of Sammie’s music was enough to blur the lines of Time/Space of MUSIC and those connected to it. I thought it was beautiful to include the representation of Chinese culture considering the Chows were just as much a part of the juke as anyone else there. They were a part of the music so their ancestors were also called upon. Kinda the reason Remmick desired Sammie so badly. Do you think he just wanted to hang out with black music artists from the past and future? Nah, if Remmick was a part of Sammie’s sound, his ancestors would have been called too. Which is what he wanted. It was powerful to show that Sammie’s ability isn’t solely about blues or black artists, is about his sound being so righteous that it calls upon the ancestors of whoever is enjoying it to come party lol

Also the reason why there is confusion by some about this scene is how things were set up. Remick sizzled earlier in the sunlight he didn't burn so ofcourse people are going to think it cant be the sun that killed the vamps so.quick. It didnt help that seconds prior to them burning up, remick got hit in the head with guitar and they all recoiled in pain. Logically one would think a stake to the heart would affect them all. Possibly leading to them being annihilated at once. Then they see that stack and Mary survived and then they are left wondering all over again.

#

I feel it was intentional so that Stack showing up at the end was unexpected

#

When he was sizzling the sun was already down past the horizon

#

Smoke sneaking up in the water was certainly a convenience though

#

But most films have conveniences, few are airtight

#

A minor flaw

Absolutely amazing

#

It really shows you at happens when a director is allowed t spread there wings

#

Like entirely

#

The whole point of that scene was that music and culture is transient and each can inspire others in ways that are positive.

#

Stop with the weird gate keeping

stray epoch
#

These things are not mutually exclusive

surreal field

#

Missing

#

The point

#

Your argument is the weirdest misconstrued way of interpreting Coulgers inclusion of this thing .

mint hedge
stray epoch
#

It sticks out like a sore thumb stylistically and screams "I want to shoot an artsy oner" which is just cringe and tryhard

#

And that wasn't even my biggest problem with the film

#

This whole vampirism as cultural appropriation/music industry sucking the life out of "real music" analogy imo is just as goofy, especially with the inclusion of that post credit. When the entire premise was that turning into vampires is to become a different character, that post credit sequence just a slap on the face

#

Like I actually like the concept behind this idea, but if you can't hold off on this superhero tarantino bullshit then maybe don't treat your analogy, especially the mechanism of your analogy, that seriously before

#

Either you are serious or you're not, as it stands, the film just keeps on embarrassing itself by betraying its own tone. The loosey goosey from dusk till dusk stuff directly undercuts any serious character works and thematic notes the film is trying to make

stray epoch

#

That music scene..coming from a musician..was one of the best scenes this last decade. Visionary, and brilliant

#

He captured in 5 minuites the thoughts every musician has. Will my music be remembered? Am I a part of something bigger? How will music evolve? Rtc

#

Never seen anything like that.

Sinners AU where everything is normal except that every character besides Smoke is a muppet

ionic jungle
#

Just sounds like you're desperately hunting for things to complain about

#

Which I can understand, I do the same thing for shit like Prometheus and Alien Covenant, but thats because those movies constantly break their own canon/rules to shoehorn in shit that makes no sense

I thought this movie was massively overrated

#

If Michael b Jordan gets an Oscar nom for his performance I will throw away the Oscars in my head as barometers of good movies/performances

#

The only part I really really liked was the ending

#

Super poignant

#

I’ve been listening to the blues ever since

#

I couldn’t understand what the characters were saying half the time

shouldn't you have thrown away the oscars in your head for the numerous past worse choices they've made?

Anora to me was a fine best picture nominee

#

By the way I didn’t hate this movie

#

Sinners

#

Maybe half of it I more or less disliked but the ending added like 3 or 4 points

#

In the end I’d probably give it a 6 or 7 out of 10

I enjoyed myself

You can bet your ass that Micheal b Jordan will not be returning unless they give him a hefty amount to return

I think he has enough respect for coogler to acknowledge he wouldn't really want a sequel

I do not want a sinners sequel

Cause I know it won’t tie into the first film as that’s all ended. It’ll just be ā€œah yes more vampiresā€ but with a whole different story just to have the title Sinners… stupid.

#

Yuuuuuup

#

I don't really see anyone from the first movie returning

At least a sinners sequel isn't forced upon coogler and he's stopped from doing another personal film project

The cinematography, production design, editing, direction, and score all need to be at least nominated too

We rarely have a movie last two months

Despicable Me 4 did

#

Cus it was a slow summer for animated movies

And they need to have at least one family movie

It came to the point where I was still uninterested but just said fuck it and saw it in an ugly Spanish dub

#

I speak Spanish and I was horrified at the dub

If you haven’t told someone to see Sinners yet
