What movies are you watching?

The Lobster seems like a whole lot of pointlessly high-concept defamiliarization to explore something ultimately facile and straightforward.

You watched it? Or you're assuming? I've not seen it yet, but have certainly been curious.

I'm like halfway through.

Mike Birbiglia has a new movie out. His first, Sleepwalk with Me, was something of a masterpiece. The newest is called Don't Think Twice, and I enjoyed it. It wasn't trememdous, but it had a good heart and is worth a look.

Sleepwalk With Me is glorious! I'll definitely give the new one a watch.

For whatever it's worth to you, trag, it's the best movie I've seen this year so far. I goddamn loved it.

You all need to watch tale of tales as soon as possible. Beautiful piece of work.

i dont trust you tho

This will be one of of those weird convergences where im right, like I always am, and you're unable to admit it.

I'm betting you won't even watch it cos I recommended it.

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.

Yea i can't wait to see it.

It looks like the perfect movie for people who watched Her and thought "yes, I need more movies about sad ineffectual white guys with bad moustaches looking for love"

Shut up

I liked Her quite a bit. The Lobster is nothing like it and, I think, far better.

I haven't watched it but the trailer looks good aside from the somewhat silly conceit

[epilogue]

I thought it was a brilliant conceit when I saw the first trailer. *shrugs*

How brilliant?

[Jorge]

It reminds me of the stuff people come up with in a hurry during the workshop section of a creative writing class. Ridley Boyega are gone and no Kenobi film so.

How about -get this- alien ghosts! They're aliens, but they're also ghosts, and also they are from the 1800s, but they can't eat vegetables.

How brilliant?

Give me a scale.

The Lobster sucked. My wife liked it, though. I stand by my initial assessment.

But I grew to appreciate Dogtooth after reading an analysis my wife wrote, so maybe she'll analyze this so I can appreciate it.

(Probably not.)

True story: she has an account, but has never posted.
