Re: What movies are you watching?
I wish I could take the feeling that Licorice Pizza left me with -- that warm, happy buzz like anything is possible -- and bottle it for when I'm feeling down. A 10/10 for me, wish it was even longer

I've felt like that after similar movies, just not this one unfortunately; loved the aesthetic, loved the cuteness, it just had like a million scenesJorge wrote:I wish I could take the feeling that Licorice Pizza left me with -- that warm, happy buzz like anything is possible -- and bottle it for when I'm feeling down.

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.

Bad take, Spencer is great. Also nothing like David Lynchtragabigzanda wrote:Spencer. Expertly manicured, hypnotic garbage. Like an early David Lynch film if he had no sense of humor.

"Metal Lords"
the first 5 minutes had me thinking this would be awful, but it got better and more interesting the more I watched; overall a better than average "teen" comedy

I'm really looking forward to rewatching Licorice Pizza. Especially that whole sequence with the out of gas truck, which is the part I keep thinking about the most for some reason.

This is an inconceivably bad take only made worse by the boneheaded follow-up comparisons. Dead fucking wrong.tragabigzanda wrote:Spencer. Expertly manicured, hypnotic garbage. Like an early David Lynch film if he had no sense of humor.
