| madadude 12/30/19 10:47:40 PM #3 | Baumbach+Gerwig power couple on top for you, damn. Wish I loved Marriage Story as much as you. More time passes, the less I feel like I liked it, especially compared to Baumbach's other films since he is definitely a modern favorite of mine. Also, remind me, Spring Breakers was one of your favorites that year right? Shocked you didn't like Beach Bum that much if that was the case. Spring Breakers is definitely superior, but I feel both have a similar atmosphere to it from Korine, just with Bum being much more focused on comedic aspects. Otherwise looking at it compared to my list, definitely have a lot of the same favorites (like every year). Ones I would recommend the most that you haven't seen would be A Hidden Life (which I imagine is on the slate for you soon), Long Day's Journey Into Night, Dragged Across Concrete, and Monos. --- |

| Topic | If you and your cousin use the same strap-on, is it incest? |
| madadude 12/27/19 1:39:45 PM #8 | unless you mean at the same time, wouldn't it just be equivalent of both being fucked by the same person. Not incest, just Eskimo brothers. --- |

| Topic | Do you remember what you were doing when the world ended 7 years ago? |
| madadude 12/22/19 3:34:59 PM #17 | Don't remember what I was doing, but going through an old excel spreadsheet I can see I rewatched David Fincher's The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo on that day. Good movie. --- |

| Topic | What are some of the most satisfying or cathartic REVENGE scenes in Movies / TV? |
| madadude 12/22/19 6:19:15 AM #21 | The ending of Dogville. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ud5-cq0a1sU Clip doesn't do it justice though, since it requires the context of the 2 hours of injustice that precedes it --- |

| Topic | The president has been impeached. |
| madadude 12/18/19 8:58:09 PM #15 | Mead posted... congress has a job to do, they took an oath True. I guess I meant more how it has consumed the media as well as just Congress's time, but you are right. Maybe I'm being cynical, but to me this all just feels like it is helping Trump in the end. --- |
| Topic | The president has been impeached. |
| madadude 12/18/19 8:33:26 PM #3 | Good, I guess? Not like it matters since he won't be removed by the senate anyway. All of this is just a massive waste of time. --- |
| Topic | I watched a movie called Midsommar |
| madadude 12/18/19 12:25:53 AM #6 | I do gotta say, for better or for worse, both the car scene in Hereditary and the end of the opening segment of Midsommar rank as some of the most disturbing things I have ever seen in a movie, so Ari Aster definitely has that going for him. --- |
| Topic | I watched a movie called Midsommar |
| madadude 12/18/19 12:19:25 AM #4 | JoanOfArcade posted... Looked interesting I think the people who made hereditary did it. Or maybe The vvitch Yeah it was the Hereditary director. Didn't like Midsommar as much as Hereditary, but yeah, not a bad film. --- |

| madadude 12/16/19 12:37:20 AM #39 | What a great finale. Seriously one of the best seasons of television I've ever watched. GanonsSpirit posted... I am so glad that https://www.hbo.com/content/dam/hbodata/series/watchmen/peteypedia/09/memo-dale-petey.pdf --- |
| Topic | Why is Golden State 5-21? |
| madadude 12/13/19 1:25:18 AM #5 | Yeah, its seriously a team with its entire starting lineup injured, so they are making due with bench players. Though even without the injuries they would still definitely be weaker than they have been in previous years, but at least an average/above average team --- |
| Topic | Did you have sex this year? |
| madadude 12/10/19 8:51:52 PM #13 | Yes but not since February :/ just been really lazy, stopped trying to date in maybe March and haven't started again yet, just been enjoying living a wasteful life --- |
| Topic | Are you going to see Star Wars Rise of Skywalker? |
| madadude 12/09/19 3:44:40 AM #50 | Going to wait until dvd/blu ray/leak because I don't want to support Disney. --- |
| Topic | Watchmen (2019) is some of the best television ever made *spoilers* |
| madadude 12/08/19 3:58:16 AM #31 | Very good show. Not surprised since Lindelof ran my favorite show I've ever seen (The Leftovers), but yeah it has been really good, especially these past 3 episodes. Some of the stuff in the nostalgia episode is just perfect, and I have no idea how it is going to wrap itself up in these two final episodes after that game-changing moment at the end of episode 7, but I am incredibly excited to see what happens. --- |

| Topic | Is Knives Out any good? |
| madadude 12/05/19 8:52:18 PM #9 | Blighboy posted... I would say the subtext and themes of the film are pretty clearly political. This, its political, but mainly just as a context for the rest and as an underlying theme, the plot as a whole doesn't involve it. And yeah, it is fun. --- |
| Topic | Billy Dee Williams comes out as gender fluid |
| madadude 12/02/19 1:59:23 AM #6 | Awesome in the most Billy Dee Williams way possible, transcending gender out of sheer coolness and full confidence in himself --- |

| Topic | What are some good recent/semi recent sci fi movies? |
| madadude 10/28/19 3:02:58 PM #19 | JOExHIGASHI posted... Would anyone recommend ghost in the shell? The live-action? Eh it has its strengths but overall I think it is pretty awful and not really worth your time. Just go watch the anime movies. --- |

| madadude 10/28/19 3:01:52 PM #18 | Lokarin posted... madadude posted...Upgrade Tons of fun. I think its a perfect recommendation for most people because its really just a sci-fi action movie, no pretentiousness at all just a sick movie. --- |

| Topic | Just saw The Lighthouse |
| madadude 10/25/19 5:55:49 AM #2 | Wasn't big fan of The Witch but yeah really loved The Lighthouse, just saw it as well. Dafoe has always been a master of playing roles that are somewhat campy, but he is particularly incredible here. The way he commits so fiercely to his performance here basically took my breath away here. And yeah Pattinson great in it as well; he has had a really great last 3 years of performances. Spectacular on a visual and aural level as well, and the performances play off this the harsh atmosphere of the film's creation so well it definitely managed to get under my skin far more than almost all other thriller/horrors --- |

| Topic | that shining 2 movie looks awesome |
| madadude 10/20/19 6:43:18 PM #3 | Mike Flanagan's 'The Haunting of Hill House' was the best piece of movie/tv horror probably in decades, so since he did this right after coming off that I'm definitely hyped for it. Of his other movies I've only seen Ouija: Origin of Evil and Gerald's Game, neither of which I thought were great, but still more interesting than most directors making similar things, so yeah, still excited. --- |

| Topic | In general are you a fan of the mcu films? |
| madadude 10/14/19 9:33:53 PM #17 | Not at all. There are some that I think are fun, but even then I am very against them and similar franchises as a whole. Just want more original stories driven by the filmmakers and not by a corporation, but that has been going downhill in mainstream Hollywood since the 80s and exponentially so since the MCU took off a decade ago and became the singular towering force in pop culture. --- |
| Topic | Republican shares a Pic of himself in BLACKFACE in a bid to be TRANSPARENT!!! |
| madadude 10/13/19 9:03:37 PM #3 | I'll give him a point for being the one to put it out there in an effort to be transparent, but to claim that it was okay because it was a different time... in 2010, is stupid. Just acknowledge that what you did was wrong, show why you know its wrong, and that you know better now, and you are fine by me. His infantile excuses for why what he does was actually ok is stupid. --- |
| Topic | How does it make you feel? Day 2: Disney |
| madadude 07/05/19 5:08:19 PM #10 | Very bad. I like most of their properties, but over the past decade they have grown far beyond what should be appropriate, and are becoming a near monopolizing force of media. It really needs to be broken up because it is becoming dangerously large. --- |
| Topic | What are you playing right now |
| madadude 06/01/19 6:09:06 PM #12 | Mainly Overwatch and Crusader Kings II. Occasionally Call of Duty 4 and Golf With Your Friends when I am playing with my friends. --- |
