Matt BirchlerMovie #18: Old
I hadn't considered changing servers would break my movies thread, but here we are 🙃
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
Patrick Explains AMBULANCE (And Why It's Great)
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 #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 #34: Evil Dead Rise
To my great shame, this is actually the first Evil Dead movie I’ve seen.
Movie #39: Contagion
BTW I make these mini reviews using https://quickreviews.app ✌️
Movie #41: The Evil Dead
I decided to stop watching the series in reverse and get to the start.
Movie #42: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
It’s a coincidence, but it’s honestly perfect that this was my 42nd movie of the year.
Movie #44: The Evil Dead
Watched again with friends, and my review from a few weeks ago still stands https://isfeeling.social/@matt/110480500496987707

Movie #45: Evil Dead 2
I expect this to somehow be one of my less popular reviews, even though I liked it 🫣
Paul Stockton@matt have you watched Hidden Figures or The Help?
Favourite feel-good movie for me is That Thing You Do! I love the music (and Liv Tyler)

ravi@ravipatel @pauls Haven’t seen them, but I should one day!
Tim Chaten@matt awww sad to hear love this one didn’t see until later on - great score too
Granneman 😡@matt Having seen all of them many times, I too prefer the first one. Haven't seen the latest though, but I really want to!
@Granneman Good to know I’m not alone 😅
I really recommend the newest one. Definitely not goofy, but it really worked for me.
@matt one of my all time favourite movies
Paul@matt I saw a bunch of Verhoeven's films for the first time in the cinema last year leading up to RoboCop's 35th anniversary. RoboCop actually ended up being the least compelling imo
Agneev Mukherjee@matt i still have nightmares
Anthony Baker@matt I see what you did there
Jonathan Reed@matt Haha.
So great though, right? Gwen’s universe was really beautiful wasn’t it. I’ve listened to the soundtrack several times already which is something I did with the first film. Daniel Pemberton is one of the most underrated composers out there.

@jonathanreed Really great through and through!
alex.tm@matt Glad you enjoyed this! I need to rewatch them soon, Army of Darkness is so ridiculous and fun. And as I mentioned before, check out the TV show Ash vs. Evil Dead when you finish the films, it’s really good.
Albert Kinng 
@matt Great one!
Javier Gallén 
@matt Watch the making of if you can, because is as fun as the movie itself. Although it is known that this was a low budget movie, the level of precariousness mixed with the genius of that 20 year old Sam Raimi is just outstanding.
@ideimos I just know a bit about the filming process, but I’ll seek out a bit more. It definitely felt scrappy. You could tell they were getting the most out of very little, and they were having fun doing it.
Stan James 🏳️🌈@matt I watched Contagion at the height of the pandemic (because of course I did) and found it interesting in comparing what they got right (quite a lot) and what they didn't. I can see how the pseudo-documentary feel of it might put some people off, though.
@stanjames Haha yeah, I’m deep on Soderbergh, so the style didn’t bother me, it just didn’t…click for whatever reason. Happens 😁
@matt It's a weird film to watch now. I wonder how I would have reacted to it if I'd seen it originally in the quaint old time of 2011? Supposedly Soderbergh is working on a sequel, though I have no idea how that would work, other than the title absolutely *must* be Contagion 2: Pandemic Boogaloo.

Hiro@matt Are you using an app for your reviews or is this something you rolled on your own? They look great!
Wil Turner@matt Michelle Rodriguez FTW
Andy@matt I ended up being pleasantly surprised by Air. Thought it was way better than it had any right to be
Ugo@matt saw it yesterday!
Kit@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.
Cory Birdsong@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.
RG@matt Love these sharp yet complete reviews.
@ravigupta Thank you!
@matt this is a great movie.
Ben Thomas (he/him)@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.
