Cult Of Chucky.

While i think Curse is better, its another very strong entry on the franchise. Mancini does a good job connecting all the movies again. I hope his series picks up after this movie.

Fate Of The Furious. Completely ridiculous but fun. You certainly see every dollar on the screen.

I have also been meaning to watch the FF movies. I've only seen the first one, when I was 15 and getting into "serious films", and I hated it because I was a pretentious little shit. Not anymore though!!!

I would never recommend them. You have to make a lot of allowances cause they are dumb but when I'm in the right mood they do tickle the right spots.

I think 5 was the one where I thought for the first time "hey that was pretty good".

I’ve never seen a F&F movie. It’s probably snobby but the kind of people that watch them turn me off wanting to ever see them. Meaning people I know here. Not you guys.

I saw 3, which apparently is the most divisive, and probably not even a real Fast and Furious movie.

They ruined the numbering and continuity with that one.

1, 5, 6, and 8 are legimitely great films. 2 and 7 are also good. 3 and 4 pretty much suck. Their reputation as “dumb” is mostly just elitism; there are genuinely thoughtful themes and the craftsmanship is pretty terrific.

I think I've only seen the first one and kinda hated it from memory. Never felt the desire to continue with the series, but I think I might be coming around.

Watched How it Ends last night. This movie seemed a little confused as to what it wanted to be.

Meant to ask you! What we do in the shadows is getting a tv series?!?!
That could be brilliant. What do you think?

When I say dumb I'm not referring to the themes or craftsmanship rather the gravity defying superhero level strength and ability of the characters. I find car porn to be dumb too.

In general I think car chases and races are the most boring shit on earth.

That’s just because they’re usually poorly made. They can be great when shot and assembled well (The Road Warrior).
