What movies are you watching?

[VinylGuy]

I might see it.

[epilogue]

What We Do In The Shadows (great)

There Conjuring (fine)

[Mickey]

20th Century Women (dir. Mills).

Bening was great but the beat-you-over-the-head HISTORY IS HAPPENING was too corny for my tastes.

We also watched it this week. A big, fat yawn all the way through. I don’t remember anything beyond the fact that she smoked?

Yeah it was weird, the individual scenes had some absolutely stunning writing and acting--Bening and the kid's fights were great--but it didn't really build to anything? What a waste.

I'm right about this.

cloud atlas was quite the experience...i noticed some of the actors played multiple characters, and there was like some kind of theme of like connectivity or something? idk

[The Argonaut]

re: Vox Lux/Her Smell
They do tread similar ground, and at the end of the day I'd agree that the only thing special about either one of them is the lead performance. That said, I saw them both around the same time and right now I can still vividly recall elements of what Moss did, but I can't say the same for Vox Lux. Moss was great

Yeah she really went for it. Since the pandemic started i saw The Invisible Man, Shirley and Her Smell and she was incredible on all of them.

[Mickey]

Yeah I really enjoyed Shirley but she carried that movie.

[VinylGuy]

Yeah I really enjoyed Shirley but she carried that movie.

Have you seen Invisible Man? She is super good there. Acting mostly by herself.

[The Argonaut]

Well, there's that other guy, you just can't see him most of the time

[Rangi Guy]

Palm Springs was fun. That's about it.

This is pretty much my take on this too

Yep

[VinylGuy]

yeah, it was ok. Nothing great. A few moments.

[Monkey_Driven]

Yup. A great length though.

[Mickey]

The Old Guard.

[VinylGuy]

The Old Guard.

how was it?

[Mickey]

The Old Guard.

how was it?

It was okay. Theron was good, Layne was quite bad, some of it was really corny but not an unenjoyable action movie.

[E.H. Ruddock]

but not an unenjoyable action movie.

So... An enjoyable action movie

[Mickey]

but not an unenjoyable action movie.

So... An enjoyable action movie

I didn't regret my time, put it that way.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
