Tommy let me see your Blu-ray collection
Here it is

Ah man I love it, very nice collection. Lots of great stuff in there. Though I am a little horrified to see that you’re a slipcover remover.
Thanks for the pics, I love seeing other people’s collections
I decided very early that if I couldn't have 100% of my Blu-Rays with slipcovers I'd rather have 0%.

All right but bear in mind that it’s in a bit of disarray right now because:
A. I’m out of room and currently building some shelf expansions
B. It’s spooky season so I took a lot out and put them in a to-watch pile (see the last pic)
It’s also nighttime so the light isn’t great

Got my first DVDs in 2000 when I was 11. And before that I already had a small VHS collection. So a long time!

Reptile (2023)
Pretty good. Always nice to see Del Toro. And Alicia Silverstone too.

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

Blink Twice. I had fun with some of the ideas, but overall it's just OK.

I watched "Challengers" last night for some reason.
What a terrible movie.

It's a bit slow but that's what watching at 1.25 speed is for.

I re-watched The Fall , recently re-released on Mubi. First time I think ever in any streaming service. I watched it a whole bunch of times in the past, but this is the first time I've seen it since at least 2012. Absolutely still great, had me crying for sure. I love this one
Please consider voting for me

Sticking with serial killer crime movies...
The Little Things
This one sucked. The beginning was dumb, the end was dumb, the middle was meh. Denzel phoning it in.
Spoiler: show Jared Leto perfectly cast as annoying guy.

I'm still looking forward on seeing both, but fully concentrating on movies from 2022 (and some classics thrown in) for now. But from those who have seen both, which is the better movie from Megalopolis and Joker: Folie à Deux?

Did the people move around real fast like they would do on Gilligan’s Island?

I haven't seen Joker, but Megalopolis on the big screen is the only sensible answer.
