What movies are you watching?

[Jorge]

Here we only dub cartoons, so Mario is probably available in both versions. Sometimes the dubbed versions (like Ice Age and Shrek), receive more praise than the original, even if everyone older than 6 knows English, and we are used to watching a lot of movies and TV in English.

The guy who does the dubbed donkey in Shrek is much better than the original. Just amazing.

Yeah, cartoons and kids movies are dubbed here, with subtitled versions usually screening at nighttime for adults. But for some reason the Mario movie is like... one subtitled screening for every 10 dubbed screenings. I think I'll have to wait until it comes out on digital.

Rank them in the order of excitability to watch

[Anders]

I have seen the first ten before, and ranked them all highly. I’ve only seen most of them once, and especially look forward to rewatching Room and Spotlight. The Star Wars one I have probably seen five times, but will see it again.

The next forty I have not seen before. Here I am really looking forward to seeing Carol, The Lobster, Green Room and Brooklyn, and will probably save these for the final movies of the year.

Green Room is awesome.

[tragabigzanda]

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.

Green Room is awesome.

Trying Green Room now. It better not suck.

[Anders]

Green Room is awesome.

Yes. Anders don’t watch that one near your daughter.

Always careful with that.

Born on the Fourth of July is on Netflix, in the US at least. I've never seen it

I haven't seen Independence Day since I was a kid. Does it hold up at all? Will Smith basically sucks*, save for his performance in I Am Legend.

*not because of "the slap", I swear.

I would consider that more anti-patriotic

all of stone's films, really, except maybe the twin towers one

Honestly, I haven't seen many of them (probably because I'm English)

I rewatched The Patriot recently and it wasn't as bad as I remembered it being. Independence Day I haven't seen since it was in theaters. I don't imagine it's held up very well.

I thought it was OK. Not awesome.

LV and I did a live posting while watching this together. Good times.

Didn’t love the film, but that does sound like fun.
