I didn’t know anything about the body horror, or the comedy, when I went into it - but I loved the surprise and honestly wouldn’t have it any other way
The reason it doesn't quite work is because it's weirdly cartoonish and yet not cartoonish enough in order for it to be dark comedy. It's like there's always this self serious idea sprinkled over everything which prevents it from entering the fully comedic zone. If it was kind of poking fun at how obvious and silly the metaphors were, then it would be more successful.
OMG I had the exact same thought while watching it lol. It reminded me of episodes like Goobacks or Red Man's Greed where the characters constantly make the wrong choices in bizarre situations.
Watching The Substance in a packed theatre was one of the best experiences I've had with a movie in years. Everyone was cackling during the whole last act, it was awesome
That third act was the perfect culmination of everything it set up, and it tickled me that one of the special thanks credits went to “All the extras in the theater that got sprayed with blood!”
Horror? It was really a dark comedy, literally nothing scary about it. I feel like horror and body horror aren’t really the same genre at all in a lot of cases
I love how timeless the Substance is, like it feels like it exists in both 2024 and in the 70s. Similar to how something like Bottoms feels like it takes place in the 50s but has the dialogue of 2023 while being a 2000s type of film
Bottoms is a movie from a genre that's probably best left in the past. …but then it's actually so much fun. It's good proof that basically any type of movie can work given enough effort.

Eli Roth was LUCKY enough to say yes to Inglorious Basterds when Adam Sandler said NO By the way, Roth was one of many who tried to cancel Jonathan Glazer after his oscar speech against Israel.
It's time to talk about the most nauseating film of the year that makes you question what went on inside the director's head when they made it. Oh, and also The Substance as well.
So far, The Substance is the best movie I've seen this year. I don't think I've ever felt so overwhelmed by the end of a movie. I say this in the most grotesque and fun way possible.
"This one would be good to see with your family" -Alex, talking about the substance. I actually did see it with family, I went with my Mum to an early screening here in Australia. She said she enjoyed the movie and related to it a bit. She's not famous but still feels pressure by society to look younger and also doesn't like her body starting to get frail.
I've played about 4,000 hrs of Borderlands and had no intention of seeing the film. So I appreciate your suffering. Kevin Hart drank pee I guess Wondering if Eli Rother was just a director for hire so that he could get funding for Thanksgiving
Saw The Substance in a late night viewing, in a completely empty theater, absolutely amazing experience. Amazingly weird and incredible movie. Especially more creepy at points because of being in a cold empty theater. I thought a little bit gratuitous with the nudity, but I will say, Sarah Qualley is a drop dead gorgeous woman. And that scene when she opens the door to talk to the neighbor guy, I literally said “oh my god” a couple times out loud during that scene because she’s that pretty. But I do wanna say, while the overlying theme everyone talks about is about infatuation with youth in Hollywood and how it’s messed up, the real theme I felt, is about the cycle of addiction and self hatred. How addiction seems from an outside perspective compared to the first person perspective of an addict. And how it can overtake your life more and more over time, and ruin your life.
The Substance should be nominated for Editing Cinematography Production Design Actress (Demi Moore) Makeup Sound Director Costume Design and probably also for Supporting Actress / Actress (Qualley) Supporting Actor (Quaid) Screenplay
The discussion about "ending explained" content around 1:54:00 made me think about clickbait 2.0. Or it's like evolved clickbait. The title says something so thunderously obvious that you think to yourself that surely the answer can't be so simple, and then you click, then you find the answer is that obvious, and nothing matters anymore because they have your click. I saw an article for 'Scarface ending, explained' once and nearly slammed my head through my desk.
(like, I love the Scarface ending, but anyone who's seen it knows how straightforward and direct the ending is. The only interesting angle I guess you could take is exploring how that PS2 videogame boldly rewrote the ending)
Children's television show movie is such a good way of thinking of Borderlands. I saw it in theaters & there were two young boys (10 or 12 year olds I would guess) in front of me that had an absolute blast. They were trying to get everyone to clap at the end.
The real genius moment of this movie was the young doctor's "Matrix" being an old husk. Felt very Lynchian. A lot of moments throughout this movie reminded me of Mulholland Drive in particular. I'm glad we still get movies like this! Surrealism taken to the extreme!
I love the borderlands games and i think an eight episode animated series showing the fall of New Haven and the rise of Handsome Jack would've been cool, showing the events leading up to Borderlands 2. Borderlands is hyper animated and colorful anyways and they could've used the og voice cast and I'd be happy. Didnt even see this movie.
Regarding that "Woke that detracts from viewing experience" question, you lads mention the most common example of filmmakers not being sincere with the diversity. But one that I see here or there is when a filmmaker firmly believes in what they're getting across, but botches it in the final product. Black Christmas 2019 would be one of them, but others like Charlie's Angels, Bros, and Don't Worry Darling are some that spring to mind for me. Bros because it was a case of Billy Eichner trying to be a leading Rom-Com man, even though he lacks the likability or humbleness to pull it off (Not to mention how he blames straight people for the film bombing even though there were other factors at play). Don't Worry Darling because it had no clue on how to handle its feminist commentary (Trying to be a satire on Jordan Peterson using an "allegory of the cave" format, even though the story is riddled with plot holes and taking bits and pieces from superior works of art). There's just a level of narcissism and hubris when you see these projects come up, with those involved thinking that because they're catering to a certain identity that they've got in the bag, when there's a lot more that has to be done to win the crowd over. Something like the Barbie film knew that alienating the audience wasn't the right move, as it could sour the release (Like what happened with Ghostbuster 2016).
The people talking about the substance online are not doing it any favors. I had no interest in watching it because all i heard was that it was gorey and gross and theres body horror and blah blah blah. And i immediate assumed that it would be another terrifier type movie where they use gore to cover up the fact that the plot and characters are as interesting as drywall. After watching it for myself, man does this movie make the terrifier movies look like they were made by children.
A funny t shirt idea i have is if adum n alex were drawn goofy doing the siskel ebert thumbs up thumbs down post. Or at least something similar if they could get in trouble for that
"If Fallout can be a good show, this could have been good." See I don't know if I agree there. Fallout was good off the back of a cannon that actually like... Has some good writing. I mean not lately, but you know what I mean. There's a lot of viddy games with "good stories" from the late 2000s and early 2010s that kind of get away with having horrible stories and characters, but gamers don't care because it's a video game. Uncharted, Gears of War, Mass Effect, Fallout 3... Like, these are the kinds of scripts that would get you laughed out of the writers room for a SciFi channel original movie. But the game's industry just has lower standards for that sort of thing. A movie adaptation of Borderlands is a baffling idea, because it's kind of the worst of all worlds. Even when people like the characters, it's more of a memetic kind of appreciation. Like, oh, the character said a quip in the background while I was shooting raiders, haha fun-e. It's like, early 2000s webcomic humor. So trying to adapt that storytelling style into a medium that demands such a concretely linear narrative? A narrative that demands that the quips are now the POINT OF THE STORY?? That seems nigh impossible. It'd be like casting Timotheé Chalamet and Tom Holland to play Gabe and Tycho in a live action Penny Arcade movie. I mean this is the game that has a double rainbow easter egg. I don't know what they were expecting.
57:40 Adum, I don't think calling out Eli Roth on his age is helpful. People's age doesn't define them, and insulting them over that really isn't fair cuz it's not like anyone can do anything to change their age. I think the same message could be achieved if you just say Eli Roth seems very out of touch and unfunny. Adding on this "and he's also old which makes him lesser" seems unnecessary.

The Substance might be my favorite thing I have seen this year. Loved it.
The Substance felt like a South Park episode with the skin of a body horror movie. I'm kinda surprised it's not marketted as a dark comedy.
That's a really brilliant description of the movie. I laughed at how insane the last half hour of it was.
I didn’t know anything about the body horror, or the comedy, when I went into it - but I loved the surprise and honestly wouldn’t have it any other way

Watching The Substance in a packed theatre was one of the best experiences I've had with a movie in years. Everyone was cackling during the whole last act, it was awesome

Very different movies but it blew Furiosa out of the water in my opinion.
Very true, that was one thing that came to mind during my first viewing
I was also reminded that Demi Moore was also in an episode of Tales From the Crypt
