Oh boy, this thing took quite a turn

I'm very glad I watched "The Ninth Configuration" before I saw this film. The midway switch from comedy to surreal drama is pretty amazing.

The Art Of Self Defense - 3/4

This was a lot of fun, and a lot of WTF.
Kept me guessing.

I have Jojo Rabbit and Vivarium on my Prime watchlist; I'm waiting until they get a bit cheaper before renting.

Some say Destor is still watching Aquaman to this day....

El Vaq, if you're gonna see it you might as well see it for free.

Dang!

i went to sleep after.



Aquaman- 7/10


its good. 2nd best dc movie fairly easily. The script has some real issues mostly around having waaaaaaay too much to do. Several arcs resolve one scene apart. Film is ultra rushed. Also suffers from an overuse of sets even for "exteriors" and when they actually go on location theyre forced to use this wierd vasalene filter to keep a visual consistency.


That said the characters shine bright and the action is among the best in the genre. Some of the jokes dont land but its enjoyable throughout and its world building (albiet very rushed) pays off in a satifying way.

What is the best DC movie?

Careful research shows that Destor rated Wonder Woman 9/10, so I guess that.

Oh its easily Wondy yeah. Phenomenal.

If its not wonderowman... what is it?

I liked Aquaman more myself. Wonder Woman was great though.... and I admit nothing in Aquaman gives me goosebumps like the no man's land scene in Wonder Woman.

I prefer Shazam, it brought the fun back in bucket loads.

Least you two picked the only 2 other watchable dc films

Just wait until the Snyder Cut comes out!!! Wooooooo!!!!!1

Lol in similar news is birds of prey any good?

I thought it was a lot of good fun, but at the same time incredibly frustrating for choosing to make the little girl character Cassandra Cain.... but probably the majority of "casual fans" don't really care about that.

I'd watch it again.

Mulan.

One of my favorite Disney movies and will be seeing the live action version just to trash it.

The Hunt 7/10

A group of liberal elite hunt a group of "deplorables" (i.e people who would vote for the Republicans). Pretty much takes the piss out of both groups of people. If you leave your brain at the door, its a decent watch.

"If you leave you brain at the door"


"To enjoy this you need to have had a lobotomy"

You are good to go then. Enjoy! :y:

Lol

Watching "Undercover Brother".

I am going to round up all of the comedy movies from the 90's/00's that had a major release but I never had a chance to see.

Sadly a lot of these films will have a 5. rating on IMDB...

Sweet, Dave Chappelle is in this.

Finally watched Aquaman.

It veered into Romcom territory almost too much with the scenes in the Sahara (the visuals for that were awful) and Sicily, but it was pretty good overall.

My score: 8/10
Wife’s score: 8/10

Coyote Ugly.

It was alright.

Watching a Lovecraftian horror called "Underwater".
It is astonishingly mediocre, I can't believe that the person who filmed this did so deliberately. This has to be an editing hatchet job.

That doesn't really explain the totality of the deafness of tone. Nowhere near enough time has been spent on the rapport or lack of...
Relationships with only exposition for proof are not relationships at all.

I hope the Ctulhu beast at least looks good

Vincent Cassel, Kristen Stewart and T.J Miller would be better in an Alexander Payne farce.
I'd love to see that.

Annoying English bird in this needs to get dead real fast.
In a movie titled "Underwater" she is literally and figuratively out of her depth.

Underwater - 2.5/4

The first half hour is a hot mess but the next half hour is good and tense followed by a pretty damned decent half hour of creepy shit happening under the sea.

The Lovecraft beast was good too when I finally got a proper peek at it.

Kirsten Stewart runs about in her underwear a lot so to be honest this was a lot more bearable than I thought it would be.

The English one is crap though. They just wrote an annoying twat for no discernible reason.

Feminism maybe

Much Ado About Nothing (1993) 6.7/10

It would have been a solid adaptation of the play if it was not for some rather poor casting choices (Keanu Reeves, Robert Sean Leonard; pretty much all the American actors); it is saved by the chemistry of Kenneth Branagh and Emma Thompson.

Joss Whedon did my favorite adaptation of much adu a few years back. So good. Shot at his home over a weekend.

That was a decent adaptation, though I haven't seen it since I saw it at the cinema on its release.

I was in Much Ado About Nothing once playing the same role Keanu did, Don John, and all I heard through rehearsal was teasing from castmates about "Almost as good as Keanu"

Don't get me wrong, big fan of Keanu but no clue what they were thinking casting him in that role.

He was the rising star of the time.

Denzel Washington, as Don Pedro, scrapes through on sheer charisma.

Is there a Simpson's episode called Much Apu About Nothing? I bet there is.

There is too, season 7.

They really have done everything.

The Layover.

Not very good but Kate Upton and Alexandria Daddario or however you spell it are both hot.
