What movies are you watching?

I went through the top 100 movies on IMDb and I haven't seen about a third of them. Basically nothing pre-1960, nor the highly rated Avengers and Spider-verse flicks. I should probably fix that.

I was scrolling randomly through the various apps and The Shooting caught my eye. I like both Jack Nicholson and Warren Oates, plus it's under 90 minutes.

This was really good. Very tense and mysterious. Good performances from Oates, Perkins and Nicholson. Man , that Millie Perkins was beautiful.

I think tonight I might watch Ride in the Whirlwind, which Hellman shot at the same time.

I'd like to watch Two-Lane Blacktop, but it's not available anywhere.

I'm also hoping that a little Monte Hellman talk will summon Malloy.

uncut jim -- still amazing, probably one of my 10 favorite movies
furry road -- still a really good, fun, weird post-apocalyptic action movie

I'm watching another random movie this afternoon - Flashpoint (1984) It caught my eye while I was browsing TCM. It's been entertaining so far. Good characters and a good mystery.

Go for it.

Saltburn is goddamn brilliant.

[The Argonaut]

It absolutely did not work for me, I hated it. I really like Elordi and Keoghan, but the movie was annoying

[epilogue]

Yeah, that tracks

[BurtReynolds]

Some movie I've never heard of called Are You Here starring Zach Galifianakis and Owen Wilson. This has horrible reviews but I kinda like it. Weird vibe. Kinda honest. Actually I think it's terrific.

[The Argonaut]

Yeah, that tracks

I'm surprised you liked it. I felt it was really childish and made awful narrative choices. It was immature and then it treated me like I was dumb

Someone else go see Saltburn so we can figure out who is right

[VinylGuy]

I see its being pretty divisive. Here its a cool read about it.

My initial post about the film almost included "RM is gonna hate it."

But I keep getting chided for that kind of thing.

Guess I was right, though. Again.
