Idk why, but Westerns have never done much for me. I like some movies in the style of westerns, like No Country for Old Men or There Will Be Blood, but actual Westerns do little for me.

Watched Crazy Rich Asians today, really enjoyed it. Not a huge fan of Rom-Coms usually, but this one was really well made, had some good jokes, and had surprisingly well developed leads. There were a couple of small film editing consistency issues, but most movie-goers probably wouldn't notice/and or care, just as someone who does a lot of editing it bugged me a bit. Didn't detract from my overall enjoyment of it though.

Definitely solid, I'd recommend checking it out.

The Descent Spoilers:
While true, it's not like she did it out of malice. She had some fucked up justification, but that's about it. Really, the only thing she potentially did out of malice was sleeping with Sarah's husband, but that's as much on him as it is her.

Apparently The Meg is a surprisingly fun movie, might go see it soon.

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

I just watched The Descent. Decent horror movie, I enjoyed it overall. The edits/cuts were kinda all over the place, made it visually tough to follow.

Juno got kind fucked over tbh. Like, yeah, she killed Beth, but it was hardcore accidental, and shit, I would have left her behind too tbh, I ain't bout to get eaten. Yeah, fucking Sarah's husband before he died sucked, but literally killing her over it?

Also, I guess I saw the US version, cause I looked it up and read that the original version had an extra minute of run time, where apparently both Juno and the escape were hallucinated, she gets another vision of her daughter, and the monsters close in on her.

I personally would have liked that ending much better tbh. Without that ending, that subplot of the hallucinations of her daughter kinda went nowhere, and the vision of Juno in the car with her just feels like a pointless, last second jump-scare that doesn't fit the feel of the remainder of the film at all.

But apparently, they thought American audiences wouldn't like that "darker ending", so they cut it.

I fucking hate bullshit changes like that. It's literally a horror movie. If you want happy shit, watch something else.

I will say though, the all-female cast was pretty dope.

Haven't seen Trial and Error, but Brooklyn Nine-Nine is also great.

Not a movie, but I binged all of Season 1 of the Good Place today. Good shit, I'd highly recommend it. Go in blind if you can.

I know literally nothing about it, so maybe I will. I started Taboo tonight with Tom Hardy, I think it's only 6 episodes and i'm 4 through so i'm thinking when this is done I might give it a go.

You definitely should. It's an NBC sitcom, but it's one of their more unique one's I've seen in awhile. Solid humor, and a surprisingly interesting plot.

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

I was gonna keep binging, but apparently season 2 doesn't come on Netflix till the 28th, so I have to wait for a little bit. :(

Not gonna lie, I'm thinking about seeing The Meg in theaters. It looks not good, but I feel like I'd enjoy it. I like movies based in/around the ocean for some reason.

Too bad there's not that many good ones. You got Jaws.... and.... Jaws.....

The Abyss was ok.

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

I really want to go see Blackkklansman.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

I haven't seen Lowlife, don't think I've heard of it honestly.

Definitely recommend Inside Out, it's fantastic. I love the premise, and for me at least, it's incredibly relatable. It's one of only 4 movies to ever make me cry, and the only one to make me cry every time I've seen it. >_>

Meet The Robinsons is such an underrated Disney film, I enjoy it a lot.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was ok. Don't remember much about it.

I've been in the mood to rewatch Megamind lately. Probably my favorite animated comedy.

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

Inside Out is my favorite Pixar movie tbh. I love it so much.

Movie Bump, got a lot going on so haven't been able to watch has many movies lately.

Friendly reminder that everyone should watch Amadeus, my all time favorite movie.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

If they keep going at the rate they're going, they will for sure. They're the one's cranking out the new, unique, impactful content right now. With Disney now owning close to 50% of the American film industry in terms of profits now thanks to the Fox deal (yeah, it's scary), we need companies like A24 to give us different, unique, powerful content.

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

So a theater kinda nearby was showing Yellow Submarine for it's 50th Anniversary, so me, my gf, and a couple friends went and saw it in theaters.

That was.. something.

I did enjoy it, but honestly, the end kinda soured me. It was such a bizarre, random, all over the place film, particularly in the middle. But as a result, the climax felt kinda weak. The weirdness didn't keep escalating and it peaked before the climax, and since the weirdness was basically the premise of the entire film, it mellowing out near the conclusion caused me to kind of lose interest.
---

A24 has been knocking it out of the park lately. I'd love to work for them after I graduate.

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

I liked the first Maze Runner, despite its flaws. Haven't seen the other 2.

Watched Eighth Grade today, liked it a lot. Nothing super amazing, but good concept with solid execution, very relatable lead character, and is extremely cringey in the best way possible.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

First Man and Mary Queen of Scotts are gonne be Oscar contenders for sure, so I'd check them out when they come out.

On The Basis of Sex has a solid shot too.

Not sure what else is really in the running right now though.

I low key think A Quiet Place might pull a surprise and get a BP nom.

Sorry To Both Your will get an Original Screenplay nom, maybe even a win, but that's it.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

My viewing of movies in theaters has gone down substantially thanks to the Moviepass shenanigans, haven't seen a movie in theaters since Sorry To Bother You.

MoviePass or not, I do plan to see Christopher Robin.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

I saw Mama Mia for the first time.

It's fine, it embraces its cheesiness, which I respect, but it's not really for me, but I also feel like it's not a film really made with my demographic in mind.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

Rogue Nation is the only MI film I've seen. I liked it well enough, so I probably should go back and watch them all, but eh...

*Truth or Dare spoilers* I know that it was for self-preservation, but it was a dick move how the girl at the end unleashed the curse to everyone

It was, but honestly, I loved it. That "twist" at the end made the movie worth it for me, I legit wasn't expecting that as an ending.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

Our only theater in town is a Cobb, and it's garbage. We're in the middle of Alabama, yet tickets are still always $10.

Moviepass was great cause it gave me reason to go see movies I normally never would have seen.

I don't think I would have seen Upgrade, Adrift, Sorry To Bother You, Book Club, or several others if I hadn't had movie pass.

Me and my GF were seeing 2-3 movies a week when in the past I was lucky to go once a month.

MP just made things so much more cost efficient.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

So it looks like Movie Pass is finally dying. :/

A shame, but no real surprise.

I do hope a more feasible option pops up soon, I did really enjoy the usage of it. If there was a universal version of AMC's new thing I'd probably hop on that for sure, even with it being more expensive and less viewings per week.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

I loved Incredibles 2 tbh, it was basically a perfect sequel IMO.

Haven't heard of What We Do In The Shadows, but it sounds interesting.
---

"She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up."

What were your thoughts on Hotel Artemis? You might have already said earlier in the topic, but I don't remember.

I definitely felt underwhelmed by it, but I didn't necessarily hate it. Just thought there was a lot of wasted potential.

My girlfriend despises it though, says its her least favorite movie of the year so far.

I also still really need to see Isle of Dogs and Early Man, I'm sad I missed them in theaters.

I'm a cartoon freak. Avatar has been recommended to me for years and I've ignored it for a long time. I recently got my hands on the series.

I gave up after a few episodes. Simply because the brother constantly protesting everything annoyed me. And I'm rarely picky about minor details like that. He ruined it for me. I'll eventually give it more time.

Sokka gets a lot of growth over the course of the series. All of the characters do.

He's someone who is thrusted into a world that he knows little to nothing about, and it takes time for him to adapt, but he eventually does, and becomes one of the best characters in the whole show.
