Red Mosquito

Seems like you’re sticking to a bit of a theme with these past couple movies tree

yeah, after that first one I was like, hmm, I've never actually seen Lolita and that's a Kubrick movie, I should probably give it a try

Hell yeah go Giants.

Bullit.

Yeah. So cool. Lalo Schifrin's soundtrack should be mandatory in schools. The airport scene is fucking wonderful.

Sickest car movie ever? The sound, man!

yeah, probably.

also, i love he treats his lady really good but also he just doesnt get her. He looks at her like "wtf just dont follow me to my work"

Revisited An Officer and a Spy and Carnage over the last few days. Every time I come back to a Polanski movie, I have the same thought: he is simply the best to ever do it. Shot to shot, edit to edit, scene to scene - he’s just the best there’s ever been.

I think Spielberg is the greatest American director and Polanski is the greatest European director. And their styles reflect that difference in sensibility: Spielberg shots big, wide, and bright, while Polanski shoots tight, claustrophobic, and moody.

Damn. Our boy spittin' over here.

After flipping around a bit last night, I gave "Eddington" a 2nd watch.
I think liked it even more the 2nd time around.

finally watched "Weapons"

much better than "Barbarian", it juggles its different tones well; I made a bad decision to watch it during the day, so it didn't have as much atmosphere as I wanted, but I'm gonna watch it again before my rental is up; it won't be my favourite this year (that's still 28 Years Later), but it's up there

"Dream Scenario"

well-acted, well-shot, horrible subtext; blegh

Loved "Weapons".

It might be in the lightweight category when compared to other horror flicks, but it's just right for me.

I'm sure there's a better term than "lightweight" that I missed; here's what I mean though:
Somehow at 46, I'm far less inclined to watch a barrage of jump-scares than when I was in my 20's.
I'll wet the bed with some of the hardcore horror/terror stuff that's been popping up.
Weapons (to me) is perfectly balanced in that regard, the jump-scares (which are not critical to the plot) are few and far between.
This movie is scary, creepy and very interesting. I feel it keeps your attention on the strength of the story and how it's being told, beautiful photography too.

Cobra.

George P. Cosmatos, what a master of his craft. The credit scene alone is wonderful. The movie is a mess, doesnt make that much sense and its a bit boring but Stallone is in his prime and its still compelling enough. Still, Sly´s script must be one of the worst he did, kinda funny it was supposed to be his Bevery Hills Cop.

Watched Weapons, it was fine. I don’t get the hype.

K-Pop Demon Hunters

it was fun

one big giant trans metaphor!

it clearly takes place in the same universe as "Sinners"
