What movies are you watching?

The Five Devils. Goddamn, what a movie. Really stunning

Rewatched The World’s End for the first time since seeing it in the theater - good but definitely not the equal of Shaun and Hot Fuzz. Wish they had spent more time just bullshitting amongst the five leads, that was the best aspect of the movie.

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.

Agreed.

Movies on airplanes:

We’re the Millers — fun enough for an airplane

The Martian — Still fun, but Wiig and Glover are both atrocious in this

Ridley Scott is generally not a good Director of actors

Glover is written to be comic relief, so I at least appreciate the attempt. Wiig as the head of PR for goddamn NASA is like a bad SNL skit

Also, Matt Damon plays an astronaut.

He can do anything

He's a very serviceable actor.

Giving Dunkirk (now on netflix) another rewatch. This one really does get better with each viewing. Wasn't a huge fan of it first time I saw it.

I always thought RM's utter rejection of Dunkirk was odd.

The thing about Dunkirk is there are zero things about it that are good

ridiculous, because everything about it is very good

You both make compelling arguments.

Should be interesting.

I don’t remember Sandra Bullock doing any of these things

Couldn’t quite finish today, but I do think Kim Ki-duk was a great director.

Watched the Iranian movie The Salesman. It was good.
