Are you telling me there's only one Back to the Future movie?

It’s a big collection of little stylistic vignettes, it’s like 50 movies in that aspect

Speaking of long movies, I found the last third of the Godfather movie (539 minutes) to be quite lacking compared to the rest.

Ok, you’re right. But what I mean is that it seems clear with the matrix that there’s a story that needs a trilogy to tell, rather than a movie. All 3 flow (part 4 is something else) and I really don’t believe any one of them can stand alone without the others.

Kill Bill is one movie. They split it in two because no one is gonna go see a 4 hour movie. I remember when it came out and people were commenting on it.
I would have liked there to be only one Matrix film, that being the first.

edit: I also wouldn't mind if Kill Bill didn't exist and Tarantino would have a few more shots in his round.

Meh. A bit too pretentious for its own good
I liked it. Certainly wouldn't call it pretentious but I will say that in the immediate aftermath of a first screening I do think it makes some odd choices that don't totally work for me.

Saw I Robot for the first time in a decade. Not great, but I do love the robots.

Yeah I don't think the matrix needs three movies to tell.

Before Midnight
Before Sunset

Im watching the trilogy inverted, and its great so far. The last one is heavy, their fight is fucking vicious. Sunset is full of joy and a little tense too.

Ill close with the first one this weekend, but these three movies are among the best

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.

Both were very enjoyable.
Watched Chip and Dale with the nephews and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.

It's a great movie to watch if you want kids to genuinely be interested in you explaining random references from your childhood.

I watched Chip and Dale this evening with my nephews and we all really enjoyed it.

Sorry i should have clarified. The 3 people that went with me. Our theater was about half full and everyone seemed to love it. lol the villains song was fantastic

My favorite scene was when the cousin was chasing them under the pier, when he was side by side with them, the back and forth eye contact with Tina.

And of course the skeleton’s teeth falling into Louise’s mouth
