The greatest final movie lines of all time. Number seven will amaze you! (is that click-baity enough?)

Movie dialogue can be revelatory. It can be weird and otherworldly. It can be funny, or hyper-realistic. It can be downright bad. When dialogue works, it makes the entire movie work. nice. And sometimes a single line can upend the entire way we feel about the movie. In fact, some movies are nearly dominated by their final line. For your enjoyment, as far as This Couch Thing is concerned, these are the greatest final lines of movies of all time. 10. “Alright, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up." - Sunset Boulevard 9. "Now, where was I?" -Memento 8. “It’s a shame she won’t live. Then again, who does?” – Bladerunner 7. “I’m Finished” - There Will Be Blood 6. “It’s a strange world, isn’t it?” - Blue Velvet 5. "Ernest Hemingway once wrote, 'The world is a fine place and worth fighting for.' I agree with the second part” - Se7en 4. "I can't imagine why." - Jaws 3. "Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown." - Chinatown

A Massacre of Societal Norms: Reassessing Feminism in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Part 2

A Massacre of Societal Norms: Reassessing Feminism in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Part 2 While often dismissed as exploitative gorefests, Tobe Hooper's " The Texas Chain Saw Massacre " (1974) and its sequel, "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre 2" (1986), deserve a deeper look through a feminist lens. Beneath the surface of blood and terror lies a surprisingly complex critique of societal norms, gender roles, and the American family – one that, while flawed, offers subversive and surprisingly potent commentary. Subverting the Final Girl Trope : Both films depart from the typical "final girl" narrative. Sally Hardesty, the sole survivor of the original, initially embodies traditional femininity – vulnerable and innocent. Yet, she sheds this passivity, transforming into a cunning fighter who outsmarts and even momentarily cripples Leatherface. Similarly, Stretch in the sequel actively seeks revenge, wielding power tools and embracing her rage. Th

30 for 10: The Best Horror Movies of the 2010s

The 2010s were a great decade for horror movies. There was a small renaissance of sorts, where horror regained some of its mainstream appeal while at the same time seeing a resurgence of art house terror. People Like Jordan Peele and Ari Aster did a lot shape the conversation and to remind people that horror is the best genre to work in if you want to say something about societal ills. Couch Thing would like to present our picks for the 30 Best Horror Films of the 2010s: 30. Let Me In A touching story of childhood loneliness that just happens to feature vampires. 29. Don’t Breathe A tense thriller that pretends to be a home invasion horror flipped on its head, but is really more interested in urban poverty following the housing collapse. 28. The Purge: Election Year The Purge series started with a mediocre home invasion horror. The series has bucked the normal trend by actually improving with each entry. This one manages to be a strong class satire w

Let's sit here by the fire and discuss The Mandalorian

Before we get started, this is the mandatory warning that everything below is filled with spoilers. If you have not yet seen the first two episodes of The Mandalorian , then stop reading now. You've been warned. The Mandalorian is basically a western. It opens with a scene that would fit in any Sergio Leone film. Inside a rather dank looking saloon, obvious baddies are harassing a meek fellow, and threatening violence. The doors open and the hero of the piece saunters in. The Mandalorian is a silent, lanky presence. He brings to mind a young Charles Bronson or Clint Eastwood. Within moments he has killed the bullies, and revealed himself as a bounty hunter. The twist in the scene is that he is here to capture the milquetoast man that he just saved. We follow our now obviously more antihero than hero as he goes to get paid and seek out another job. He is led to Werner Herzog, who adds gravitas to a character that we would expect (this being Star Wars, after all) to b

let's improve on the Oscars

I largely gave up on the idea that the Oscars were some realistic measure of quality in film (mostly talking about the Best Picture award here, but your mileage may vary with all of the awards) around the time I learned that How Green Was My Valley bested Citizen Kane for the best picture award back at the dawn of time. Everyone still takes these awards seriously, but why? I mean, how many Best Picture Oscars does Mad Max: Fury Road have? Zero. It has zero despite being not just the best film of the year it came out, but the best film of the decade as well. The Academy has released the nominees for this years awards, and there is a lot to be worried about. The list of Best Picture nominees isn't offensive. It's just odd. Here it is: Ford V. Ferrari The Irishman Jojo Rabbit Joker Little Women Marriage Story 1917 Once Upon A Time... In Hollywood Parasite Ford V. Ferrari doesn't belong on this list at all. It's mid-range suburban dad en
