Watched The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Holy crap that was a beautiful movie. Like, my bucket list now includes cycling through Greenland and Iceland.

I knew where the #25 was going to be as soon as I saw it was missing and even knew - more or less - what it was a picture of but the constant hype made me a little let down by the reveal. Not sure why.

But that's my only gripe. The whole film was amazing, and I honestly couldn't believe it when the credits said Ben directed it.

Moonlight.

Well, i loved the cinematography and most of the director´s choices regarding frame, focus, camera´s movements, etc..but the story was just..meh.
Basically the main character is such a pain in the ass. He is always crying about something or just not talking. What a fuckin wuss...he kinda deserved to be picked...such a drama queen, such a victim, it was boring to see.
The last part of the movie fells apart when you dont really know what happened with him after school...but its beatifully shot, so its an ok experience.
BONE FUCKIN´ TOMAHAWK.

Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk in 4K with HFR looks fucking WEIRD. I can barely even focus on the movie because of how unnaturally hyper-real the image and motion are.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Ha, I've been wondering about this. Do you think anyone will ever use it in a way that isn't awful?
