Earlier tonight I watched Spirited Away. I'm happy to have seen it, but it didn't really speak to me the way it apparently has with other people. I was very surprised to learn how much of a smash hit this was.

I also watched "Milk" and "The Imitation Game" which I thought were pretty solid films

I made it through the first half of Putney Swope (it's free on youtube) and liked what I was seeing but had to cut it short because I needed to take care of a few things. Maybe I'll watch the rest tonight.

Ninny · Post by **Ninny** » 30 May 2017, 16:00

I liked Trainwreck and The age of Adeline

And Manchester by the sea, I'm in a gay type of mood I guess. Lost of movies I started on but couldn't finish, like Doctor Strange

The new Alien was weak too

That lead actress was just boring

I saw new Alien, ehhhhh it was OK, could have been worse. It was a step in the right direction.

Also rewatched Dead Alive (Braindead) for first time in years

Hey Ninny I am in your country in 19 days

Just got a projector last Friday so my movie watching will likely kick back into high gear in the coming weeks. Watched Predator, G.host in the Shell (anime) and Body Snatchers over the weekend.

I fucking loved it. I actually watched it twice before the rental ran out. Definitely going to pick it up and on bluray whenever its released.

The blackcoats daughter came out today. You seen that? Going to pick it up before leaving work. Best movie I've seen since the witch.

Yes, I've seen that as well. I thought it was good.

Trainspotting 2...although enjoyable, I thought the ending was kinda lame. Obviously, the nostalgia factor of seeing them together again is the major draw of this film.

A dark song!

Ninny you liked it?

Ninny · Post by **Ninny** » 05 Jun 2017, 03:59

I watched it in the deep of night and it was creepy

I thought this was some gay musical... well I guess it is. But a very powerful gay musical with two lovely young stars and it's visually very pretty

With entertaining discussion of the arts. I wish I had gone earlier

From the maker of Whiplash

But with a strong Woody Allen influence I would say, lots of romance and jazz

agony bagony · Post by **agony bagony** » 21 Jul 2017, 19:12

whiplash was hugely disappointing, i felt

Ninny · Post by **Ninny** » 15 Jan 2018, 22:17

La La Land is not though. I just watched this, I was a the 50+ afternoon where they show older movies. I fit right in, my new scene

Watched the ritual on Netflix last night. Damn good movie. It's like a mix of the Blair witch project and the witch. The creature is really cool too.

Holocaust · Post by **Holocaust** » 19 Feb 2018, 10:42

I liked the BWP

I think I liked The Witch

This will be viewed after work on the morrow

droidspawn · Post by **droidspawn** » 19 Feb 2018, 11:22

Great atmosphere. Filled with dread

droidspawn · Post by **droidspawn** » 19 Feb 2018, 11:27

Also if you are really interested in it or going to watch it, do NOT watch the trailer. Gives away too much.

As a long time fan of the manga, I was suuuuuper skeptical about it successfully being squished into a 2 and a half hour film. Takashi Miike fuuuuckin' pulled it off. If you're going to hack up BotI and condense it into a feature film, that's exactly how you do it.

Chappie. Was better than I thought it would be.

djonni greazo · Post by **djonni greazo** » 28 Feb 2018, 17:57

Blame! (on nettoflixu): 5/10. interesting idea, bad execution
The Death of Stalin: 7-7,5/10. funny movie, turns pretty dark in the last 15minutes
Ernest & Celestine: 7/10. charming little cartoon. a bit too much "for kids"
Sowrd of the Stranger: 5,5-6/10. points for getting right the vibe and aesthetics of Edo Japan without resorting to anime shenanigans. minus points for boring characters, story and resorting to anime shenanigans during battles

Annihilation: had some hopes due to Garland directing, but it turns out it only has some decently good visuals during the middle, a very very boring beginning, and a borderline nonsensical pretentious ending. the "bear" monster was awesome. 5/10

Seen that in theatrical play form a few years back. Good story driven evening but was kinda disenfranchised by some of the local actor participation. Do you happen to have recommendations for a dvd/streaming format you could recommend?

agony bagony · Post by **agony bagony** » 08 May 2018, 19:50

it came on good old cable actually

turner classic movies if i recall correctly

as far as streaming goes netflix is complete turds if you want to watch old movies or tv shows. there may be a dedicated channel for this on roku or sling but i have no idea

i nominate nick and lummo to share what they know
