Movie sucked, especially for anyone who knows anything about the Calvinists who settled in the New World. And, not good horror story, either. Btw, it’s the “VVItch”, too, not the “Witch”...

I watched the documentary on Netflix "Shirkers". I found it to be quite fascinating, its about a teenage woman directing her first movie, only to have the movie stolen from her by someone she trusted. A mystery as to what happened to the man as well as her film would take her 20 years to discover.

You care a lot about how the title is stylized for someone who hated the movie.

Also, I see that it’s “The Witch” literally everywhere except for the poster, so probably calling it “The Witch” is OK.

I started that one — as I’ve said, I think — but turned it off because I got the impression it was going to do Anti-Christy things to my brain. Lull me in and then fuck with me in a big time, serious way.

Devils Rejects

I've seen this a few times and I was in just the right mood for it this time around, so I did enjoy it. But my love/hate thing with Rob Zombie is what it is. I'll always watch whatever he does and inevitably find things I love in them and things I either hate or, when I'm in a more amenable mood, just find really frustrating.

Didn't see the last seven minutes due to the restraints of class time (related, fuck Mr. Greenwood). Certainly good and interesting.

Allison Williams is kinda cute, and I noticed a few scenes where she had a fairly masculine-looking face (prominent jaw). Gives me a little hope

Watched Pasolini’s Decameron

Well... I was expecting an “art film” but I got... an almost slapstick and sacreligious comedy. Very funny. Makes me want to read Boccaccio.

Not great but good

NO SPOILERS HERE!

Let me know what you think.

Or let “us” know what you think, but would be hard to talk about the movie in the thread without breaking your own spoiler rules. Personally I think there should be a statute of limitations on such things, so people can talk plot points about movies that nobody’s waiting to rent or standing in line to see.

This is a TV-related thing, but...
I think it’s actually really helpful to watch the entirety of ATLANTA after watching Get Out. Especially for whitey-whitey-bo-biteys like myself (and probably you).
From what I can tell — and I think Jordan Peele has even said this — Get Out was inspired by an episode of ATLANTA called “Juneteenth,” which, I believe, manages to do an even better job of highlighting the troubling relationship between the self-congratulatorily “woke” and people who actually live and deal with racism. “Juneteenth” is like Get Out boiled down to 25 minutes with no sci-fi horror stuff.
I was really hit by it, and it made Get Out seem like a better film in retrospect.
Not to paint with broad strokes, but some folks can get creepily up-their-own-asses about how “empathetic” they are to racism, slavery, etc., even if they cannot possibly understand those things well enough to claim true empathy.
I’m sure I’ve acted this way without meaning to and that’s exactly why it’s important to see things like Get Out and ATLANTA.

Also, ATLANTA is odd and surreal as hell when it’s not being terrifyingly accurate and realistic. There’s only two season, and the episodes are short. Make a weekend out of it.

Heh?
Is that the extra-horrible one from GIRLS? Yeah, she’s pretty or whatever, but unfortunately she played Marnie so convincingly that I just see that nutter when I see her elsewhere. And I care more about sociopathy and malignant narcissism than I do about chin shapes or whatever.

Anyway, check out ATLANTA if you haven’t.
Everyone.

bored AF and doing chores last saturday, the wife and I gave this horror show a shot. what a fucking piece of shit movie. Fast forwarded about 30 minutes of it. Is it just me or does Owen Wilson get uglier every single fucking time you see him? Like, you know how some people get better looking the more you see their face and their idiosyncrasies? The exact opposite happens with Wilson. what a fucking troglodyte.


This movie is another one of those "well off white folks have stupid problems that are not really problems, because they can get away with murder because they are nice shiny white people." what a fucking shit.


I give it a 2/10, because I laughed at three things that Vince Vaughn said.

I watched Der Goldene Handschuh by Fatih Akin on monday, never been so bored in my life. The whole movie seemed kinda pointless, seemed to be he only wanted to shock with the depictions of drunkeness and murder. I wonder if the book by Heinz Strunk also sucks so much. I *might* read it, just to make sure Hein Strunk doesnt suck.

I also watched Gegen die Wand by Fatih Akin. That one I really liked, though. Had nice shots of Hamburg in it and really depicted the kind of feeling I had when I spent my first summer here (minus the violence and minus growing up in a muslim family; but the city's vibe was nicely captured other than that).
I learned that the female lead grew up in the same city as me! AND she was in Game of Thrones? woot woot!

Juno (2007). The title girl is fun and funny. She's an iconoclast who doesn't seem to really care what people think, and that makes her admirable too. The soundtrack is like a time capsule for me, I think this may be the first movie where I knew every single song that they played. And Michael Cera is in it, and he's wonderful as usual. Ceriously, I love Michael Cera.

JK Simmons is good, Jason Bateman's character reminded me a bit of my brother, eerily. Jennifer Garner had her full yuppie going on. Good show.

i sorta laughed in the end because of her walking companion lololo

i didnt like the weak plot. i mean there was a story, but shit just happened without a lot of structure or motivation.

in a way i appreciated the end titles which explain the sources. a bit like psycho with the need to clarify things haha, but it works for me in that it lets me put into perspective the whole thing.

also did not enjoy the utter lack of contrast in the dark. had to tweak the controls to extremes to be able to see. which i assume was against the atmosphere the thing tried to convey, but still...

the... no, it wasn’t boring. had a good atmosphere. i was just... it felt quite haphazard storywise. but then in retrospective i though “okay... i accept that”.

Well, I thought Juno was pretty awful but I’m not a big fan of “pregnancy movies”, or pregnancy at all....

Recent appearance by Cera in one of the Weird City series. Series is hit or miss, but the Cera story was great.
