Movie #18: Old

I hadn't considered changing servers would break my movies thread, but here we are 🙃

Movie #19: TÁR
Movie #20: Infinity Pool
Movie #21: Fire of Love
Movie #22: Knock at the Cabin

Movie #23: Albulance

For the record, it's movie day at the Birchler household because I feel sick and don't want to do anything else.

Also, Patrick Willems has a great video that I watched afterwards and made me appreciate this one even more. https://youtu.be/vlEEjHWJhyY

Movie #33: Full Time (À Plein Temps)

Had to watch something a bit more down to earth after binging on a few action blockbusters in a row 😂

Movie #34: Mission: Impossible - Fallout
Movie #35: The Father
Movie #36: Dune
Movie #37: Alice, Darling

Movie #38: Avatar: The Way of Water

Cameron blew me away.

Oh, and it’s a shame the digital version is presented at a fixed 24fps. I don’t know if I would have liked it much, and I know it was in the theatrical release to help 3D screenings feel better, but would have been nice to have the option.

Movie #29: Rye Lane

Movie #30: Enys Men

Loving a good Saturday morning movie double-header 😁

Movie #31: Hot Fuzz
Movie #32: Scream 6
Movie #33: How to Blow Up a Pipeline

Movie #34: Evil Dead Rise

To my great shame, this is actually the first Evil Dead movie I’ve seen.

Movie #35: Air
Movie #36: Return to Seoul
Movie #37: Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
Movie #38: Perfect Blue
@matt Are you using an app for your reviews or is this something you rolled on your own? They look great!
@matt Michelle Rodriguez FTW
@matt I ended up being pleasantly surprised by Air. Thought it was way better than it had any right to be
@matt saw it yesterday!
@matt I briefly thought this was part of 365 albums. And now I wonder what a late-80s Ben Affleck album would sound like. Not good, I am guessing.
@_kit I think the odds of it being good are low, but the odds of me listening to that if it existed are 100% 😛
@matt This continues to haunt me. He just so happened to grope someone during the same appearance, so it is really hard to find video. If it resembles Marky Mark and House of Pain in any way, I will know that my life is incomplete without seeing it.

@matt ‼️

You need to remedy this.

@matt If/when you end up watching the originals, make sure you include the tv series Ash vs. Evil Dead too, it might be my favourite part of the franchise tbh.
@matt They are all great, so you are in for a treat! I also recommend the Ash vs Evil Dead TV show.
@matt oh man, watch 2 and Army of Darkness, then go back and watch 1.
@matt Love these sharp yet complete reviews.
@matt this is a great movie.

@matt I fall into the same category - huge fan of the trilogy.

I’m not sure how it’s happened but my Wife and I quote Hot Fuzz to each other almost daily 😂

@Beetee Oh yeah, same here 😂

“Yarp” and “narp”

“Stop this mindless violence!”

“You’re off the fucking chain!”

“Here come the fuzz”

“A BIG BUSHY BEARD”

Not a day goes by without at least one of those.

@matt Looking back through your reviews. I must admit I judge people on this movie. You passed. Isn’t it just great? Great reviews, btw
@qwxlea Haha thank you! I truly do wonder about people who don’t like this one 😋
@matt Shaun of the dead and 28 days are my favourite: “why it’s good Britain is an island movies”
Now reading through your other movies, feels like a movie night is coming up 🍿🎬
@matt it's SO GOOD
@Barredo I was really not prepared to love it! The first movie was fine, but this one was incredible. One of the rare 3 hour movies that made me check the time remaining and wish there was a bit more.
@matt so sad there isn’t a HFR 3D release for VR headsets would be incredible - maybe - Apple can snag that?! Incredible in theaters. As a new father this movie hit hard watching in theaters at that time
@matt the HFR here was used sparingly. I’d estimate 40% of the film was HFR. I’m not anti HFR, but I despised the constant swaps (often many times in one scene). They were noticeable and distracting, and I’m still mad my money was conned out of me. Not worth it.
@matt I also watched this recently, for the first time, and enjoyed it a lot. I did find the dialogue levels very difficult to follow throughout, which mostly just bummed me out because it was all so well done that I didn’t want to miss anything.
@matt I watched it recently and it’s fresh and remarkable (I’m new to Dune however).
@matt Florian Zeller? Am I missing something 🤔
@ravipatel Nope, you have caught an oversight in my post 🤦‍♂️ Fixed!
@matt Didn’t think recent French movies where reaching overseas audience.
@eiffair Very few! Modern, non-English European films are definitely a blind spot for me.
@matt We are lucky enough to have a big movie industry in France, 150 French movies in 2022 which is enormous regarding the small country we are. Actually, there is an important funding system to support it.
@matt Ok now you’re just messing with me.
@oliverhaslam If it helps, it’s probably my favorite Roland Emmerich movie 😂
@matt @oliverhaslam Independence Day?! - I have a soft spot for his movies they are crazy in the best kind of way - remove all logic and have a good old time :)

@tchaten @oliverhaslam Oh maybe Independence Day wins out.

Everyone can like what they like, of course, I just find these crazy in the most boring ways 😂 There's a lot of crazy movies out there that I dig, Roland and I are just on very different wavelengths.

@matt @tchaten @oliverhaslam Guys what about the 98 Zilla?

@matt unfollowed, blocked, everywhere.

Madman.

@oliverhaslam I was so bored during this 😂
@matt Disagree with giving this the bottom the rating, but agree about the strange lighting choice! It felt more like they shot the movie in one of those underwater tunnels at Sea World to me. And how is there supposed to a reflection within closed-off rooms anyway?
