What movies are you watching?

The Overnight (2015).

What a weird movie. Adam Scott makes weird movies. I usually laugh a lot during them, though. So...

My favorite part of this movie is how whenever Scott Aukerman mentions it on their podcasts he makes sure to say it was Adam Scott's real penis in the film, not a prosthetic micro-penis.

yesterday I found out that Macaulauy Culkin and Elijah Wood starred in a psychological horror movie called "The Good Son" in 1993, so I needed to watch that immediately; I did, and it was fucking great

I then watched "Over The Moon" on Netflix and cried a lot, what a beautiful and moving animation

I loved The Good Son. I remember seeing it theaters. My friend and I argued about the ending for a long time. It was awesome.

Glad you liked it. I haven't seen it in years. Good to know it holds up.

What did you discuss about?

Spoiler: show

whether or not the ending was really "shocking" or not. All the marketing material advertised a twist ending that was super shocking. My friend didn't think it was surprising at all. He thought it was obvious.

Spoiler: show

Macaulay being the killer?

Spoiler: show

I think the mother choosing the other kids over her own son and letting her son die.

Oh yeah, totally.

Spoiler: show

yeah, I wasn't surprised by the cliff scene but I was surprised by the mother's choice; she had to make one, he had killed her daughter, so she did what a lot of us would do -- which was somehow even more shocking; I loved how this movie was essentially about relationships and the choices we make in toxic situations; it's a sophisticated little piece pretending to be a blockbuster

God I love The Addams Family

I've watched it every Halloween since I met my gf cause she loves spooky movies, and it really is so good. Just gets better every time.

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.

The first Men In Black is a perfectly cromulent movie!

[JuanHamm]

The first Men In Black is a perfectly cromulent movie!

Yeah, I watched it again recently and it's still really good

[ghost]

Rewatchables ep on The Exorcist makes me want to watch the movie again so bad but I just can't.

glad someone else is listening to this. It's my favorite podcasts right now.

I either devour it as soon as it drops, or skip it completely, depending on the movie/guests. I love the core crew together (Simmons, Ryan, Fennesy).

Exorcist with those 3 = instant listen.

Like, Raul Julia as Gomez? We watched that last weekend. First time I’d ever seen it. Can’t say I’ll ever feel the need to ever watch it again.

Raul Julia should have been nominated for his performance and I'm not even a little bit kidding.

The sequel is better than the first I think.

Searching.

I had fun. I prefer Unfriended tough.

Have you seen Host (2020), pretty good and efective.

I used to agree. Having watched both of them a couple of weeks ago, I've changed my mind. The first one is better. But both are great.

I've changed my mind about several sequels this year. It's weird. Like I used to think Bogus Journey was better. But I don't anymore.
