    The Banshee of Inisherin, I really enjoyed it. Very odd and funny in an uncomfortable, uneasy way. I especially enjoyed Kerry Condon as SiobhΓ‘n, her performance was a great emotional counter point to the dead pan comedy between Colm and PΓ‘draic.

  • Across the Spiderverse. I really like Mile's story... But I was a little disappointed by how slow paced the story seemed to be imo. Nothing got resolved. The whole movie was a lead up for the ending. Really disappointed with how the studio overworked artists (although that's par for the course these days) and how shitty the audio was before they finally fixed it. Music didn't live up to the first movie. The first movie has music that works great as stand-alone songs, but the second movie's soundtrack just sounds like a soundtrack.

    I still enjoyed it though. I'd give the first movie a 9/10 and the second a 7/10.

    Hot Fuzz, very comedic and got intense in the last moments

    John wick surprised me in being an actual good movie. No brains whatsoever but nice action.

    Spiderman ATSV

    It was fuckin incredible, this trilogy is going to be one of those once in a lifetime trilogies, like the Matrix Trilogy or the Dark Knight Trilogy, you mark my words.

    Can't wait for BTSV

    Network (1976).

    A prescient film that is just as relevant today as it was almost 50 years ago. A little monologue-y at times, but that's just the style.

    Barbarian

    Sadly it does not stick the landing but everything up to that point is great. Love how it plays with the fact that the audience already expects Bill SkarsgΓ₯rd to be creepy.

    I watched Tokyo Drift and Fast X back to back. Finished Tokyo Drift and loved it, felt like an actual movie with 3 acts. I made it a bit over an hour into Fast X before quitting, I honestly don't know what I was expecting after the 9th one.

    My dad had on Starship Troopers earlier and it was definitely much scarier to me a decade ago. I cannot say it's the best sci-fi film I've ever seen, but it's pretty decent.

    The latest Dungeons and Dragons film. I've never played the game and know nothing of the lore but found it to be pretty enjoyable.

    Watched John Wick 4 last night with my wife. Keanu Reeves is a legend.

    John Wick 4. Seemed like 2 uninterrupted hours of people shooting one-another in the face. I only made it 30 minutes.

    Last one I really liked was Valerian. Kind of a hokey sci-fi, but good story and engaging. I actually liked the lead characters a lot.

    Last one I can't believe I watched was John Wick 4. I mean I knew what it was going to be like. Was almost three hours long with thirty minutes of actual story, the rest just shooting and fighting, but I had to see it, just like the three before it.

    One thing that was really cool about John Wick 4 is there's a set of scenes where he's driving a 1971 Plymouth 'Cuda. I had that exact car with all the performance options except the Hemi engine (had a 440 six pack engine). It's by far the favorite of all cars I've owned. I found it in the mid 80's wasting away in a garage and restored it. To this day I think I should have kept it, found a way to store it properly. The whole time I was thinking don't you dare destroy that car, but it looks like they CG'd all the crashes. I'm sure the owner would never let them damage that priceless car.

    Asteroid City. It was... more meta than expected. Not so much breaking the forth wall as featuring the forth wall!

    Guardians of the Galaxy 3, pretty good.

    28 weeks later. Was recommend by Disney plus in the what to watch tonight section and I just went with it.

    Overall it was an OK movie. A bit too constructed maybe. Would watch it again in a year or so.

    My girlfriend and I recently decided to watch every Arnold Schwarzenegger movie in order. We saw Hercules in New York this weekend. It was pretty amusing. They clearly shot all the mt Olympus scenes in central park because you can hear the traffic in the background and the occasional crying baby or what not.

    The terminal; always a good movie! I watched it multiple times now, but this one never gets old.

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.

    I liked it, and it seemed like a good way to show characters changing without actual growth.

    The last one I saw in theaters was Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. It was gorgeously animated and detailed, and I'm excited for Beyond the Spider-Verse.

    Last night I torrented a camrip of The Flash. It wasn't terrible, but the ending kinda dissappointed me. (I'm not sure how to put spoiler tags on Lemmy, so for now I'll just leave this comment as it is.)

    Marcel the Shell with Shoes on

    A refreshing, slow paced and very touching "fictional-documentary" about the little microcosm of a shell with shoes and how he discovers what's beyond. Its based on three YouTube short films from 2010-2012 made by the director. Highly recommend both the short and the feature.

    Fittingly, it also touches on the feeling many of us had when first discovering the Internet. For me, that's also what's happening right now on Lemmy again (a tiny bit).

    Mulholland Drive

    A strange masterpiece and artwork. Been thinking about it for a few days now.

    I watched a night to remember the 1958 movie about the Titanic. It's out this morning on YouTube remastered with color. Phenomenal movie, there's actually no fictional characters or fictional side plot, it's basically just a docu drama. Most of it focuses on the most senior surviving staff member who had a pretty wild story of survival that night.

    The platform (2019) https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_platform

    Its worth a watch if you like movies where people have to survive in crazy games like Cube, Squid game, Circle or similar.

    Fall (2022). The concept is pretty simple: Two women climb a TV tower and are stuck at the top. Before watching it I thought: How are they going to make a movie out of that? Well, they did and it was better than I would have expected. If you like those movies with a limited cast and set and without much action, I can definitely recommend it.

    Fast X. It's gone off the rails.

    I went into it expecting it to be over the top, with a weak story, crazy twists.. but holy shit.

    Just finished "smoking causes coughing" which is a weird french movie that goes in weird directions. I don't know whether there's a term for gore comedy? This is that in places

    Finally got around to watching Stalker last night! Partner and I both really loved it. Absolutely deserves the legacy it has, it explores so many philosophical and existential questions but still stays incredibly clear. Would recommend wholeheartedly if you're in the mood for a slow paced philosophical/psychological sci-fi.

    Avatar: The Way of Water

    I liked it. Not much happens story wise but I love exploring the lore and stuff of Pandora.

    Charlie Day's new movie Fools Paradise!

    If you like always sunny you'll have a good time spotting cameos from like, everyone.

    I really enjoyed the film, but my family wasn't digging it and I could definitely see why.

    Ice Age 6(?) with my daughter watching on repeat. I couldn't help but immediately notice that the voice actors were discount versions of the original actors (no shade to them considering what they had to work with). 1/10 would highly recommend this masterpiece.

    The Flash, mildly funny, awful awful CG, the most interesting bit was spoiled in the trailer, I’ll never watch it again. 2/5

    Loved it. The lead actress was fantastic and it’s no surprise that she was nominated for an Academy Award.

    Flesh Gordon.

    No that isn't a typo.

    Yes it is exactly what you think.

    Yes it is hilariously bad.
