People Break Down Which Movies Had Them Asking 'WTF?' While Watching

I love unconventional movies and storytellers.

I live for the times when artists and creatives take big chances.

Sometimes those chances pay off and other times... it's a travesty of life.

Yes, I'm dramatic, and so is movie-making!

The WTF aspect.

That is usually born out of big chances.

Whether that moment leaves people thrilled, shocked, or disgusted... that's in the subjectiveness of it all.

It's always a gamble to create.


Redditor MightGuy420x wanted to share thoughts about some of the movies that left our brains and souls puzzled, so they asked:

"What movie had you saying 'What the f**k' the most while watching?"

Movies leave me aghast more often than not.

And endings are never easy.

Last Lines

"Swiss Army Man."

JawlessRegent64

"Isn't 'What the f**k?' also the last spoken line in the film?"

"Yeah lol, literally. It made me laugh so hard because I'd been saying that for the entire two hours I was sitting on my couch watching it. Never saw that coming from Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe is a strange man lol."

A Midnight Opening

"The most audible 'What the f**k?' I have ever heard from an entire movie theater audience was actually from Pixar."

"It was their short film Bao, I think before Incredibles 2. A woman makes a little baby out of dumpling ingredients, there is a cute montage of them together, and then she eats it without warning."

"It was a midnight opening so the audience was all adults, and yeah nobody saw that coming."

AllBadAnswers

Weird but Funny

"Sorry to Bother You."

MCPanda6969

"I saw this in theaters having absolutely no idea where it was heading (like everyone I think). I must’ve walked out to pee at exactly the wrong time, when I came back I had to double-check it was still the right theater."

drownednotgod

"I freaking love this movie and you're exactly right. There was a point I went from like 'This is a weird one, but it's funny' to 'What in the actual f**k is happening?'"

"What's even better is if you go back and watch, they led you right up until that point. They're always hinting at it, but the protagonist makes everything about him and I think that's why it just hits you out of nowhere."

JackJackensworth

Gross

"Splice."

AnotherBadPlayer

"I feel bad for introducing this movie incorrectly to some friends. I really thought it was going to be some kind of science-fiction drama. And then Adrian Brody mated with it."

ddh85

"Well, that's easy the thing he was f**king was a human-animal hybrid that he raised from birth like a daughter and was made from his girlfriend's DNA the hybrid later changes from female to male and attacks the before-mentioned girlfriend which I guess is technically its own mother."

30% Out!!

"Mother!"

GreatTragedy

"We had to refund AT LEAST 30% of the admissions for this movie every day when I worked in a theater. People were leaving the cinema pissed off because of this movie."

That movie makes no sense at all.

Someone explain it to me!

No Light

"Human centipede."

Odd_Adhesiveness4804

"When Roger Ebert reviewed this movie, he gave it zero stars, saying such a movie could exist only in a universe with no light in it whatsoever, and hence there could be no stars in his review of it."

Jan's Story

"Abducted in Plain Sight."

sodangshedonger

"My mom actually went to school with Jan and her mom was friends with my grandma. I’ve tried to get my mom to watch the show but she has refused because 'I have already had more than enough Jan Broberg in my life.'"

"From what my mom said, I’d take everything the family claims happened (especially Jan’s story about what happened while she was kidnapped) with a grain of salt because Jan was apparently super melodramatic even before the abduction."

"That said, I found the show to be less shocking than most people because their naïveté is incredibly unsurprising for a Mormon family in a small town in the 70s."

ToBeReadOutLoud

Unconvential

"The Lobster."

awakami

"Seriously had no idea what I was getting into. A couple and a dude bailed out of the theater when I saw it."

2ndRook

"The Lobster made me realize I had an unconventional taste for films. It’s my favorite film of all time next to Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I tried to make my friends watch it, and they all would bail out mid-film."

areyousureyourealive

"This. What utter f**king bats*it crazy horseshit this movie was."

Tackit286

Hey John...

"'Being John Malkovich' is just one weird thing happening after the other, giving you very little time to process it."

LoopyPro

"I got to see an advanced screening of Being John Malkovich. I knew absolutely nothing about it going in. It was the first time I was ever left so completely speechless by a movie in such a good way."

"I was already in love with the movie before the portal was even introduced. It could have just been a really weird series of set pieces revolving around those bizarre characters interacting in that weird half-floor and puppetry recitals and I would have been happy. Then it gets all metaphysical and kooky... And it did it all so perfectly."

lingh0e

Unreal

" Cats. I was just constantly saying 'What the f**k?' under my breath as I watched it in theaters. I honestly don't remember much of it. It was so incoherent in tone and execution, and weird that it just feels like a fever dream in my memory."

So many movie WTFs for me are about... "How did THIS find funding?!"

Thank God for vodka.

His latest grievance, however, is thinly disguised as grammatical. Specifically, he is once again furious that the Associated Press (AP) capitalizes “Black” while keeping “white” lowercase.

Marvel Just Confirmed That Chris Evans Is Returning For 'Avengers: Doomsday'—And Fans Have Mixed Feelings

Folks, once again, continuity is more of a suggestion than a rule in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel has officially confirmed that Chris Evans is returning as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Doomsday, and the internet has responded exactly how you’d expect: screaming, celebrating, arguing, and a very justified side-eye toward how Sam Wilson keeps getting treated.

The confirmation comes via a teaser now playing exclusively in theaters ahead of Avatar: Fire and Ash. There is no official online release, despite leaks circulating. If you didn’t catch it on the big screen, Marvel’s response is essentially: sorry, guess you had to be there.
