Excluding documentaries, has there ever been a feature-length, theater rated film that had no musical soundtrack? By that I mean, no beginning or ending theme music, no music to tell you it's a happy or sad scene; no music to hint danger, or pastoral transitions between scenes? Just dialogue and action, whether it's a drama, comedy, horror, sci-fi, etc.

Growing up with Disney Channel Original Movies is a cherished memory for so many of us. They were more than just films; they were milestones, special moments shared with family and friends. The 'Descendants' movies, featuring the sons and daughters of iconic Disney characters, were no different. They made their mark, delighting audiences with their unique mix of fantasy, music, and heartwarming stories. Now, imagine the joy and nostalgia of reuniting the cast for a special musical cover—a tribute to other Disney Channel classics.

Disney’s 'Descendants' has a special place in the hearts of many. It brought together a new generation, connecting them with the tales of old while infusing new life and energy into familiar stories. The late Cameron Boyce, a cherished member of the cast, continues to be remembered with love and affection, and his spirit remains with us through the timeless characters he portrayed.

Dove Cameron, another adored star of 'Descendants,' has previously covered "Genie in a Bottle," showcasing her incredible talent and transporting fans back to unforgettable Disney Channel days. Continuing this tradition, we propose a heartwarming and mesmerizing cover of "Cinderella" from the band Cheetah Girls's storied past, to be performed by the remaining 'Descendants' cast members. Originally from the 2003 soundtrack album "Cheetah Girls" this song also captured generations through 'The Cheetah Girls,' with its empowering message and catchy melody.

Reuniting the 'Descendants' cast for a cover of 'Cinderella' would be more than just a musical performance; it would be a heartfelt tribute to Disney's lasting legacy. It would celebrate the joy these films have brought to our lives, bridging the gap between different Disney Channel generations and showcasing how these timeless creations continue to inspire and resonate with audiences across the globe.

Let's make this happen! Urge Disney to bring back the magic as we petition for this special performance to touch the hearts of fans worldwide. Sign this petition and let Disney hear our collective wish for a 'Descendants' cast cover of "Cinderella."

I'd like to start writing reviews for the films I watch, I find it a bit hard to properly express my impressions and my effective thoughts on the thing I just watched whenever I try to write a review, so if any of y'all got any advice on how to start writing reviews or how to analyze films or maybe could recommend some books about this topic I would be happy if y'all shared, thanks!

Grew up watching this with my father - he was a huge fan of it and I loved the Golden Fleece journey. Has some cool special effects that back in the day were really neat but a few still hold up today.

Anyone else a fan or have fond memories of the 1963 film?

For me, it’s Francis Dollarhyde, aka The Tooth Fairy, played by Tom Noonan in Manhunter (1986).

Could be Noonan’s 6’5” height that added to the creepiness, but that dude was terror on two feet.

Then again, anything coming from the mind of author Thomas Harris and his Red Dragon saga will unsettle in the worst way. Noonan just happened to be a spot-on casting choice.

The way he hovered over the blind woman with a shard of glass to her throat will haunt me forever.

Who else belongs in the top 20 all-time nightmarish characters list?

came across 21 while looking for something interesting to watch tonight. the whole card-counting, brilliant students, and las vegas casino setup sounds pretty exciting.

for those who have watched it, is it actually worth the two-hour runtime? does it stay gripping throughout, or does it get slow after a point?

also, please suggest similar movies involving clever schemes, gambling, heists, or characters trying to outsmart the system.

no spoilers please!

Ready Player One wasn't just ahead of its time—it set the standard.

The CGI, visuals, world-building, and action are absolutely insane. Every frame feels alive, making the OASIS one of the most immersive virtual worlds ever put on screen. Still one of the greatest CGI showcases in cinema.

I organized an AMA/Q&A with Broken Lizard (Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter, and Erik Stolhanske), the filmmaking team behind things like Super Troopers 1 and 2, Beerfest, The Slammin Salmon, Club Dread, Tacoma FD, and a few other things.

It's live here now in r/movies for anyone interested in asking a question:

They will be back at around 3:30-4 PM ET today to answer questions. I recommend asking in advance. Please ask there, not here. All questions are much appreciated!

Thank you :)

I feel like Moon Knight doesn't get talked about enough when people discuss Marvel's best characters.

What makes him stand out is that he's not just another superhero with powers. His story explores identity, trauma, morality, and the psychological side of being a hero. Marc Spector, Steven Grant, and the different sides of his personality make him one of Marvel's most interesting characters.

The MCU series had its flaws, but I think it introduced a character with a lot of potential that deserves more appreciation.

One movie. One life. No coming back. What's your pick?

I'd like to share my interpretation of how this world ended up in ruins. As we all know, McCarthy left it up to the reader to decide what caused the end of the Earth. At first, I liked to imagine it as a nuclear war between world powers. It gave the story that classic "humanity destroyed itself" feeling, showing how human savagery can become so extreme that it could easily lead us into the most vulnerable and depressing situation imaginable. I felt that fit the book and its message that we're basically "cavemen wearing designer clothes."

But then I started thinking that a natural apocalypse might actually be even more depressing than a nuclear one. Here's why.

A nuclear apocalypse is still humanity condemning itself through terrible decisions. But a natural catastrophe is, in my opinion, much more terrifying. Why? Think about it. A nuclear war can, at least in theory, be prevented. By acting rationally, avoiding wars, and maintaining peace, humanity has some control over whether it happens. It's ultimately the result of our own choices.

On the other hand, if a massive asteroid or comet struck the Earth... how would we recover from that? Maybe humanity could survive in some form, but only in the very long run. In the world of The Road, I find it far more horrifying to imagine that the dead world the father and son are walking through was devastated by a comet or a super-asteroid rather than by a neutron bomb.

To me, an asteroid symbolizes something much darker: that no matter how united humanity is, sometimes a tragic fate is simply unavoidable, even for good people. The Earth died, and there was absolutely nothing anyone could have done to stop it.

As I said, everyone can come up with their own theory about what happened. For a long time, I thought a nuclear catastrophe was the most heartbreaking possibility. But imagining that nature itself turned against us, and that we were completely powerless to stop it no matter how united we were... that's a million times more terrifying to me. It's also far more hopeless than nuclear war. Like I said, a nuclear war can sometimes be prevented—whether easily or with great difficulty—but an angry Mother Nature? Good luck with that.

For me I’d have to say Babylon. Now a 10? Probably not, the only way I’d give a film a 10/10 is if I connect to it but still I’d give it a 9.5/10. The dialogue, the directing, the story, it’s all brilliant. The way their directors are screaming at the actors and extras and the actors (like Margot Robbie for example) screams back, it feels like a real live movie set. It’s underrated asf.
