Leviathan is good, Deepstar is only memorable for its poster and ridiculous crab monster. But it’s shorter than the Abyss.

Cameron said he finished the 4K Transfer for Abyss. Rumor is Spring '23 but nothing official.

Rogue One is the greatest Star Wars movie but it's not even as good as Monsters?

yeah a lot of people were too harsh on Noah. I thought it was alright.
Looking forward to your take on whale man

Noah is right at the top of his filmography or me, truly stupendous. The Whale is definitely at the bottom, it sucks

I remember liking Noah, but I don't remember much else about it.

If I remember correctly, I thought the first half of Noah was good, then it got kinda boring.

Updated!
I avoided The Whale for a while because I heard it was too sappy, but he's a kinda sappy director, and I thought it fit the material. I was pleasantly surprised by it. The performances were great (except maybe the mousy preacher guy). Looks great, too.
