I just saw The Substance on Thursday in a fairly full theater. I really enjoyed the movie and the last 30 mins was batshit insane and a fun viewing experience in a packed room.

While I really enjoyed it and gave it 4.5 stars on letterboxd, my gf was physically uncomfortable for a lot of the movie and didn't like it nearly as much as I did.

Just looking to hear other people's opinions who have seen it already. It's been getting a lot of buzz in the movie channel with my discord friends.

I've got a niece (5) and nephew (3). The niece is really good about finding ways to entertain herself and the nephew will always try and take it for himself and intrude, usually not in a compromising sort of way. Obviously, this is pretty typical kid behavior overall.

She's reaching the age where she can learn more complicated games and ideas, which sounds really fun to introduce her to. If he's around, I feel like it will certainly cause a meltdown, and he's too young to reasonably participate anyway.

As an older sibling myself. I think it's also unfair to hold her back until he can participate too. Some would say it's unfair to do it until he can as well. I would argue that it's actually unfair to introduce 5 year old games to her when she is 7 and he's 5 and can join too. She's being punished imo unnecessarily and being held back. Why does she have to wait till 7 while he gets it at 5?

Is the only solution to try and schedule separate activity times to individualize the activities? Am I being biased as an older sibling myself in feeling that I would be holding back until he's at the same capability? Just curious for feedback. Thanks
