Top Ten Movies

[epilogue]

There are still a couple I wanted to look at that I never got around to but tonight are the Oscars so here's a top 20 as it currently stands

Civil War was one of my most hated movies ever.

Civil War was great. Way better than most of the films "honored" in this Academy Awards.

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.

Kneecap I haven’t even heard of that one

[epilogue]

But seriously... Kneecap is leagues better than Anora.

LV watched Anora yesterday and rated it 1 star.

[The Argonaut]

Argo while I quite liked Challengers, and struggle to see a world where it’s the best movie. Please state your case.

I liked it the most
