Re: What Are You Watching Right Now? Episode 3 - Turtles in Time
My theory about older people is that they're so used to watching TV at home and talking through it that they fail to realise they're in a cinema full of other people. This happened to me last year as a couple decided to comment on everything. The great thing about the UK is everyone is so posh and p...

Re: ShrykeVerse Top Movies of the 80's Countdown
I watched Heaven's Gate on New Years Eve for the first time, as I nabbed the Criterion Blu-ray for cheap. It's the full version. I was impressed by it. The scale is amazing, and the bitterness of the theme and the main character who isn't the nicest. I'd argue it's too long, particularly the opening...

Re: Best of 2023 So Far
Yep. Had a while ago, I think, but never bothered to commit. Now I've put almost every feature film I've seen on it. Strangely, my life doesn't feel any better.

I think a couple of my least favourite ended up in your favourites, Chien.

SIX TIPS, OR HOW TO PLEASE YOUR SLATE – THE FILMS OF 2/23
It seems love was in the air last week, or at least one love as One Love surprised pundits and defied critics by opening to a massive $52m as people got ready and were left waiting in vain to get seats for sold-out shows. With a great cinemascore and RT user rating, expect Bob’s positive vibrations ...

Re: Tranny Tackles the Cinema: The Films of 2/14, 2/15
That, and it's appealing to an older audience who haven't had a film for them in a while (although the Boys in the Boat probably counts)

Re: Screening The Releases - February 9th
What a disasterous week. Less than $30m for the top 10.
The studios could have picked up some indie films and pushed them harder, instead of another failed attempt to make a Diablo Cody script a hit.

Re: ShrykeVerse Top Movies of the 80's Countdown
Interesting. I have the Criterion WKW boxset and this is the only one I haven't watched. So it's as good as his subsequent films?

Re: Rate That Movie Part IV: Movies Never Sleep
You can be stupid. You just can't be excessive, which is where a lot of the criticism is coming from. A film like this doesn't need to cost $200 million to produce. It didn't cost 200m to produce, it was acquired for that amount. Vaughn's company privately funded it for way less (less than $100m I'...
