neutral · AI labelView post →Picking a random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Year 2, Day #161 "Funny Games" (Michael Haneke/1997) I love this movie but I recognize it is not for everyone. It is a deeply uncomfortable watch. You should probably check it out to determine if I am crazy or not 😅
positive · AI labelView post →It's been about 17 years since I watched the English language remake of this film so I decided it's finally time to watch the original. Any fans of Funny Games out there? Either version.
neutral · AI labelView post →Funny Games. It's an Arthouse Horror movie that hates Horror Movies, and the moral of the story is that you are a bitch for liking this film.
neutral · AI labelView post →Psychologically uncomfortable films like Funny Games (1997). Could anyone who has seen and felt psychologically uncomfortable during _Funny Games_ (1997) suggest similar films? My own suggestions are: - _Midsommar_ (2019), - _Eden Lake_ (2008), - _Mother!_ (2017).

neutral · AI labelView post →Is The Bride! a great piece of filmmaking? No, but I dug it. I would ride into battle for Jessie Buckley, man, she was awesome. I’m probably in the minority for that movie. Rewatched Funny Games cause I was in the mood for something relaxing & calm lol 😉. #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday #FilmSky
positive · AI labelView post →Civil War gnaws at me like Funny Games: a movie that I know what it's about, that I know I'm going to find both repellent and haunting, and that I keep deciding never to watch but still thinking maybe I should watch anyway
neutral · AI labelView post →#filmsky The horror movie as art film? In A Glass Cage (out today, 1986) takes on similar terrain as Salo and Funny Games: an appalling subject (Nazi abuse of children, then revenge) done in a stylish, artful, powerhouse way. You can’t stop watching, but it’s dire nihilism is on full display
neutral · AI labelView post →I don’t think Cabin in the Woods is a movie for critical thinking. I’m probably prejudiced against it because I watched it when people said it was better than Funny Games, an angry movie with real contempt for the genre it depicts. Cabin is by comparison fairly toothless, a gentle ribbing of horror
neutral · AI labelView post →As WBD drops a trailer for its animated remake of ‘Funny Games,’ I again ask if WB can, this time, become a major box office contender in the realm of feature animation. Can ‘The Cat in the Hat’ succeed (in terms of paving the way) where ‘Space Jam,’ ‘Happy Feet,’ and ‘LEGO Movie’ did not?

neutral · AI labelView post →In my defense (1) I actually really (I don't want to say like, but respect?) Funny Games as a film and (2) at a meta level it was very, very, very, very funny.
neutral · AI labelView post →🎬 Funny Games (1997) 🇦🇹 #Movie “Is that enough? You want a real ending, with plausible plot development, right?” It opened later in Japan around 2001. First saw it in a theater back then, and revisited it on streaming this time. Still leaves that uneasy feeling long after it ends.
positive · AI labelView post →I've told you about the time a French girl was living with us for the summer (daughter of longstanding family friends and she was interning for a photographer in STL) and she chose Funny Games for my mom's first, and as would emerge, only, planned family friday movie night?
neutral · AI labelView post →This is why I was never able to get on board with Funny Games. It makes a judgment that purports to directly intercept its audience. But it’s like. You’re the movie, man. It’s your house!
negative · AI labelView post →Snowtown/The Snowtown Murders and A Serbian Film for me. I have Funny Games on DVD but I've never watched it... 🤔
neutral · AI labelView post →"Okay so Funny Games or A Serbian Film?" "Which do you think I'll enjoy more?" "No, which do you wanta watch FIRST"
neutral · AI labelView post →Third film on HBO Max, another Haneke, Funny Games. Seen the American remake. Hear this is better. Haneke directed both films. #filmsky #letterboxd #LastFourWatched boxd.it/1WKM

neutral · AI labelView post →Funny Games, the central thesis of which was “movies like this are bad and if you like them you are a bad person” Fuck that movie

neutral · AI labelView post →I finally finished Funny Games (1997)... I love a movie that can stress me out and leaves me feeling filthy
positive · AI labelView post →Well… damn. New Zealand #Horrorfilm “coming home in the dark”. That was so well done but geez it was bleak and brutal. Quite a hidden gem of a film. Recommended if you like films like Speak No Evil (original) and Funny Games (which I do) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2 #HorrorSky
neutral · AI labelView post →I really walked out of the theater sick to my stomach and woke up the next morning feeling like I’d just Witnessed Something. Funny Games-level Horror Movie Excellence.
neutral · AI labelView post →Funny Games. An accomplished film which I will never, ever, watch again.
positive · AI labelView post →To me this is Michael Haneke’s masterpiece, and I love Cache and I was wrong about Funny Games, it is so much better than I originally thought, but this film I cannot get out of mind over the years!
positive · AI labelView post →Funny Games is a Michael Haneke film about savescumming during an evil run
neutral · AI labelView post →One takeaway from the "dark movie" discussion yesterday is not enough of you have seen Funny Games It's a rip roaring ride for the whole family 😊
neutral · AI labelView post →I need a feelbad movie to watch maybe I'll finallu hop on Funny Games or Irreversible soon
neutral · AI labelView post →Naomi Watts is best known for her more prestigious work, but her genre and genre adjacent work is STELLAR. The Ring, Mulholland Dr, Funny Games (a movie I actively hate, but Klein is outstanding in). And let’s face it, it was her performances in these that made her a name. Naomi, we miss you.

neutral · AI labelView post →The director is actually critical of featuring horror, violence, sex, etc, which is what makes "Funny Games" interesting in that he's trying to portray them in the least artistic and most uncomfortable way possible, which makes for a confronting but ridiculous horror movie imho..
neutral · AI labelView post →Today’s Bloodhaus podcast covers Funny Games, but first they talk about THREADS. @joshuaconkel.bsky.social : you want 80s nuclear dread, nothing is heavier than Jane Alexander in TESTAMENT (1983). That film guttttted me. Also, this video by Ultravox is deeply upsetting; this was the Zeitgeist then.
neutral · AI labelView post →This is probably the best Drakengard video i've seen (and i've seen too many of them at this point, as an anime character would say "I'm so fucked up.") There's an interesting parallel near the end of the video with the movie Funny Games, i've made this parallel too in my head (please clap)
neutral · AI labelView post →Hi I’m Michael Haneke, I am posting on Ratking’s BlueSky to say . The evil boys from Funny Games BECAME REAL. So watch out. I didn’t even think this was possible. Fuuuxk I shouldn’t have made that movie. Oh my god. This is so bad actually.
neutral · AI labelView post →so earlier Ophelia and I watched Funny Games (2007), which is a near shot-for-shot English language remake of the 1997 German language film of the same name by the same director, and it got me thinking some stuff about the differences in how we culturally perceive film and video game remakes
neutral · AI labelView post →I had fun with The Running Man, but was a little infuriated because it felt like it was playing everything a little safer than it really should've been & was longer than needed (there's a great 2hr film hidden here) as it kinda runs out of steam by the finale & enters Funny Games territory #FilmSky
neutral · AI labelView post →#filmsky #horrorsky Funny Games (1997) What a film. The camerawork and lighting are quite elegant. The scope shrinks throughout and traps the viewer in this horrible situation. Haneke expertly uses tension to play with the audience. The themes are interesting if inaccurate. Still, excellent movie
positive · AI labelView post →Grandma fell asleep watching what I assume she assumed was a Hallmark movie, but appears now to have become a Funny Games Xmas special. Just gonna switch it back to Animal Planet.

unlabelledView post →Last House on the Left was a rather disturbing movie, and hard to watch at times. pales in comparison to Funny Games.
unlabelledView post →Well, it’s almost time for my annual October challenge where I watch at least one horror movie every day. Here are some new ones I plan to finally see this year: -The Wailing -Barbarian -Funny Games -The House By The Cemetery Any other suggestions, horror fans? Interested in new and old.
neutral · AI labelView post →Horror movie viewing shortly, courtesy Scream Factory TV. Michael Haneke’s Funny Games (disturbing but brillant film) followed by Mario Bava’s Black Sabbath. #HorrorSky #filmsky
positive · AI labelView post →I actually walked out of Funny Games. When it became apparent that the message of the film was this was all a terrible spectacle that existed only because there was an audience, I left. Sometimes the only way to win is not to play.
negative · AI labelView post →1. Packed cinema on a Friday night, opening weekend of Vanilla Sky. About 20 mins in, someone stood up, yelled “this is fucking shit” and stormed out. 2. Large amounts of booing at a film festival screening of Funny Games.
neutral · AI labelView post →I've never seen Funny Games in a cinema, but I would would have walked out. Took me two tries to watch on video. I maintain it's an excellent film, but one I have absolutely no wish to see again.
positive · AI labelView post →And largely for the same reasons. Funny Games is a movie that says “hey do you like violent horror movies? well they’re bad and you’re a bad person!” Sucker Punch is “hey I talked to one feminist once she made my boner sad and did you know Anime Schoolgirls Kicking Ass is Bad Actually?”

neutral · AI labelView post →Did u ever see Funny Games? That one always struck me as being if "guy who hates movies makes a movie" But the thing about that is is that it actually has stuff to say, and a theme. And a thesis Madame Web looks like 2 hours of just Nothing
neutral · AI labelView post →this is the film that does what Haneke wanted to do with FUNNY GAMES, only does it much, much better. Funny Games is shit.
negative · AI labelView post →god I hate Funny Games what a stupid fucking movie
