Shutter Island.

really low on Marty's list of output

Don't know that I agree. There were so many beautiful scenes (especially the dream in the apartment). DiCaprio and Kingsley were great. Solid mid tier.

hard agree. there's a lot to admire in this film.

It’s competent.

Got a week and a half off starting after work today. Going to be busy on baby duty as always of course. She just went to sleep for the night. Wife’s at work. Made a little sandwich, and put on a movie. Feels good.

First time seeing Black Mass.

[Anders]

Really enjoyed the beginning of the movie, but ultimately it’s a little disappointing. It tries to cover too much ground, but lacks real focus. Depp is excellent, and the movie has an interesting look, so it’s a shame that it falls short compared to any top rate gangster film from the past few decades.

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.

Goodfellas
The Godfather parts 1 and 2
Once Upon A Time In America

[Anders]

Eastern Promises
Pulp Fiction
Miller’s Crossing

I need to watch City of God.

Pulp Fiction is one of my all time favorites.
Miller’s Crossing is prime Coen. Love the Coen’s.
City Of God is a solid movie. Haven’t seen it in a decade or more.
I enjoyed Eastern Promises as well, a positive surprise, just a couple of years ago.

I don't particularly care for the gangster label here but Pulp Fiction is easily one of my favorite films. There was a humanity that I found in his earlier screenplays that I can honestly say I could not really find until Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood.

Bad Trip.

yeah, i had fun

[Orpheus]

Bad Trip.

yeah, i had fun

I was dying, but I love Eric Andre. Tiffany Haddish was super funny too, she committed to everything 100%.

[Anders]

Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas

Perhaps the most famous 90s movie I’ve never seen before today. Remember my brother hating it so much, I never did see it.

[Anders]

Didn’t like it much either. Perhaps my timing was off. Had to have the sound low, and it’s early in the day. Perhaps with regular sound and a few beers late at night would have been better.

Hidden Figures. Solid first half an hour so far.
