My brother hasn't seen this, which is a thing that must of course be fixed, leaving now to go see a 45th anniversary screening of —

#45, or #2415, 1980's "The Shining."

RE: https://beepboop.one/@Alexis/115277978137634810

Finally finished watching, and so can now count in the thread —

#46, or #2416, 1915-1916 silent French film serial "Les Vampires."

Not seen so much as a trailer for this, but I dunno, I'll go see a zombie comedy (zombedy), leaving now to go see —

#47, or #2417, 2026's "Cold Storage."

This is the one of these I've never seen, it's —

#48, or #2418, 2002's "Austin Powers in Goldmember."

Ping pong movie let's go, leaving now to go see —

#49, or #2419, 2026's "Marty Supreme."

(Fully forgot to hit send. Pretend I tooted this 3 and a half hours ago.)

Know nothing about this 1990 Lawrence Kasdan picture my dedication to podcast completionism is making me watch, it's —

#50, or #2420, 1990's "I Love You to Death."

In a genuine Valentine's Day coincidence, my dedication to Blank Check completionism is forcing me to watch a movie with the word "love" in the title that I would otherwise never have put on, it's —

#51, or #2421, 2008's "The Love Guru."

It's another Best Picture nominee that seems like one of those that had a good point at the time but we wooshed past that point half a century ago, it's —

#52, or #2422, 1957's "Peyton Place."

With and after dinner, watched —

#53, or #2423, 2026 doc “Disneyland Handcrafted.”

Truly just wall-to-wall violations of even the most loosey-goosey of basic modern health and safety standards.

I've definitely seen at least one other adaptation of this that I fully do not remember, leaving now to go see —

#54, or #2424, 2026's ""Wuthering Heights"."

David has told me to watch this 1972 TV movie that dares to ask, "what if a Black man was President of the United States, wouldn't that be something," it's —

#55, or #2425, 1972's "The Man."

It's the 1957 Best Picture nominee that dared to ask, what if there was a —

#56, or #2426, "Witness for the Prosecution."

The first of the 1958 Best Picture nominees, I know nothing about this one, it's —

#57, or #2427, 1958's "Gigi."

One of those "well if you can see it on the big screen, ya gotta" movies, leaving now to go see a 30th anniversary screening of —

#58, or #2428, 1996 Baz Luhrmann picture "Romeo + Juliet."

In this one Glen Powell kills the rich for fun and profit, leaving now to go see —

#59, or #2429, 2026's "How to Make a Killing."

Alex Daily not going to improv comedy class tonight, on account of it being a vacation week, and so Alex Daily can instead go to the Mystery Classic. (Like Sneak Preview but the movie is old.)

The hints are "The day after carnival," and "Iron ....," and we like @kurt 's suggestion of it being "The Hangover," but only one way to find out, leaving now.

#60, or #2430.

It's the third of four movies that have ask, what if a star was born, it's —

#61, or #2431, 1976's "A Star is Born."

Obviously accomodating my brother's schedule isn't an issue at all, but I do sometimes miss seeing movies at like 10:15am on a weekday.

But he doesn't care about these, so leaving now to go catch the 10:15am screening of —

#62, or #2432, 2026's "Scream 7."

I'm... pretty sure?, this is Jewish Mulan, it's —

#63, or #2433, 1983 Barbra Streisand picture "Yentl."

Remember how bad "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" was, well, what if there was a moderately better movie about Wolverine that was also a little weird about Japan, it's —

#64, or #2434, 2013's "The Wolverine."

It comes up sometimes how goofy it was for WB/DC to do a second Suicide Squad movie only five years after the very bad first one, but there were only four years between "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" and "The Wolverine."

Same title trick, even.

"X-Men: First Class" was a pretty clean reboot, it actively contradicts both the original trilogy and "Origins," outside of the one little scene of Jackman in the bar, there's nothing tying it to those movies.

But this is a Logan from after "The Last Stand," a Logan who still lives in the old continuity.

Logan is fighting a bunch of shitty hunters who killed his nice bear pal. This is really what Logan should be up to at the start of every movie he's in.

A bar, a cause, a fight.

A thing I said about "Origins" is it felt like it was stitching itself together from movies like it without actually doing anything meaningfully different with even an inch of it.

This is really doing the same thing, but — and this is crucial — the picture fundamentally understands the ways in which putting Logan in this material changes it, alters it, and what situations are fun to see him in.

I don't really remember how exactly "Days of Future Past" picks up Logan's story from here, but this mid-credits scene doesn't feel like it connects at all.

(How is Chuck alive? He's in his identical twin's body. You didn't get that from "The Last Stand"?)
