Clue. 1985 Yes, Tim curry is fantastic in it.

The Boy and The Heron

A truly excellent movie made by Ghibli, fantastic studio with some really high quality films. Definitely recommend giving it a watch.

The Life Aquatic

Wes Anderson movies are an acquired taste. But this one in particular is very accessible, and very funny. And it has a very emotional ending.

The only thing an uninitiated viewer needs to know is that the effects are intentionally low-budget. Just take them as seriously as the characters do, you’ll warm to them.

I guess I'll be the thread's normie:

Deadpool & Wolverine

And yes I would recommend it. (If one is a fan of the genre of course)

Lilo and Stitch. Of course I’d recommend it. One of the best movies of all time!

Safety Not Guaranteed (2012) - Aubrey Plaza in an engaging character piece that has hints of Eagle vs Shark among others. It's not outstanding by any means and not among Plaza's best, but still witty and touching.

In theater, deadpool and wolverine. Plot was silly but holy fuck the movie itself was incredible. Won't spoil it but they're are some great surprises for 90s kids. I felt pandered to in the best way.

At home, the mask. Girlfriend hadn't seen it. Warned her that I remembered it being amazing when I saw it ages ago, but it might not hold up. It held up. Chick chicky boom.

Treasure Planet for the first time... It was a ride, I liked the animation and the old Disney style actually got me thinking if it had gaming adaptations... And ofc it had them... I want to at least try one (for nostalgic reasons), but I am unsure if the PS1 or PS2 version is the right one to go.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988). While not The Blob or Night of the Creeps, it's pretty fun.

Nausicaa of the valley of the wind. A Studio Ghibli film.

Yes, would definitely recommend! A classic. It's older at this point but still a great movie

Watched Dune pt 2. I personally didn't like the rewrites to the story, but I enjoyed Villeneuve's artistic style.

Regarding if I would recommend the movie, I'll paraphrase a video review I saw: "I would recommend it to anyone who liked the first one and hasn't read the books".

Twisters, the one that just came out.

Generic, corny, unoriginal, boring collection of green-screen effects

Turned it off after about 40 minutes

Borderlands. Unsurprisingly, no.

Interstellar. It was like the 4th or 5th time I've seen it, so yeah, I'd definitely recommend it if you're into sci-fi epics.

The last movie I saw for the first time was Barbie. I went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. It also didn't take itself too seriously, despite having a very positive message for women.

My partner and I are watching every movie that Arnold Schwarzenegger has ever been in, no matter how small the role. We just finished watching Scavenger Hunt from 1979 and it was fucking horrible. By the far the worst movie from his early days in film. It's not that he made it bad, the movie in and of itself was bad.

Vesper. It is imo a good sci-fi movie, but a tough one. The lives of the characters are not easy, but the movie doesn't tell you that, you discover it through details casually said by the characters. The movie itself is a post apocalyptic movie in a very original setting. It is about biotechnology instead mechanised or AI tech. It is worth it for this alone IMO. It was a great movie imo, but not one to cheer up.

I just watched one, like 30 minutes ago. It's Doraemon the Movie: Nobita's Earth Symphony

It's about music, and honestly animated films about music are some of the coolest films, as they can have infinite imagination of synchronizing and visualizing the music.

I know Doraemon isn't that popular in the west, but it's one of the top franchises here in Asia.

Mad Max: Fury Road, it was just as good as I remember

Oops, forgot about watching Murder Mystery 2 and Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire with my parents. They were ok for a few chuckles, Ghostbusters had some fun easter eggs.

Operation Mincemeat. Love me some bickering British spies.

Robocop & Robocop 2 back-to-back. I’d recommend the first one but not the sequel. Even though it’s the same main actors, the writers seemingly decided to lower their IQ and make their personalities more shallow in the sequel.

Deadpool vs. (and?) Wolverine. Meh. They try to be funny by making fun of the megacorps that produce such movies (how witty indeed!) while being the same thing you've watched 1000 times before.

Perfect Days. Got it half-off from Criterion based on the trailer and little else. Absolutely gorgeous cinematography, and a subtle and compelling character study.

City Lights. (1931)

Found it on a harddrive at work. It was fun to watch, if you can find a copy somewhere I can recommend it.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_Lights

Inside Out 2 - and yes, I thought it was great, although not quite as good as the first one.

Last grown up film I saw was Emily the Criminal, which I really enjoyed. Aubrey Plaza is excellent in it.

Red Rock West, 1994

Nic Cage movie I heard about in a thread here the other day.

Cage is unemployed and down on his luck when he gets mistaken for a hitman and is paid to do a job. He takes the money and tries to run, but gets caught up in a more intriguing whirlpool of trouble than I expected.

Nothing groundbreaking here, but it had more surprises than I had expected and it's fairly well acted for a 90s movie. If you want something interesting that isn't too deep and has a vaguely No Country for Old Men flavor, this isn't bad.

The Sudbury Devil. Would I recommend it? Yes, if you don’t mind weird, independent horror movies.

Jay and Silent Bob strike back

BOONG!

Heat (1995)

Absolute must-watch

My GF asked me to come to it ends with us with her. I didn't see any trailer or read anything about it so I assumed it was a romcom or something, boy was I wrong...

The plot was quite gripping though and Blake Lively and the cast were really good in it. I'd definitely recommend watching it but keep in mind that it's a pretty intense movie with lots of dark content in it.

Gladiator. Hells yes!

Deadpool and wolverine. It was a pretty good movie.

Longlegs If you like psycho horror it's fun. So yes :) Takes place during the last years of the satanic panic. Not necessarily my cup of tea but nicely made. Not as jump scary as expected, but still some jump scares, so be aware.

Bone Tomahawk was alright. Kurt Russell played a solid frontier law man. There's a pretty spicy gore scene in there too.

Spaceballs. yeah

Damsel

Hell no

I watched but did not finish inglorious bastards because we had to take iur kitten to the vet.

However, I watched and finished District 9 and it was unequivically a banger. I can't reveal too much without spoilers so I will only say this. It primarily takes place in South Africa and the history of apartheid is important to its message.

I also watched Starship Troopers not to long ago and it was a banger too. The history of American imperialism is incredibly important fot this one.

Both of these are very relevant to world events at the moment and watching them now will only do you good
