• Hundreds of Beavers

    Hundreds of Beavers

    A rare DNF. Not because I didn’t like it, but because I’m an idiot and can’t focus when the Yankees could theoretically made a trade or free agent signing at any minute.

    Will definitely revisit this in the future. This was so so so impressive and clever.

    Juan Soto I miss you so much 💔

  • Excalibur

    Excalibur

    ★★★★

    We used to be a society that made well-lit, extremely horny fantasy epics with excellent production design and terrible performances. What happened to us? Why did we let Ronald Reagan do this to us?

    Watching this triggered a deeper think about something I’ve become a little obsessed with recently: the concept of what storytelling should be. And where I’ve settled on it for now is that we’ve become a little too concerned with thoughts and people explaining them to each other…

    ★★★★

    Kevin Costner doing hammy accents in 60’s set political thrillers is the best movie genre

  • The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial

    The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial

    ★★★★

    Maybe the key ingredient to making a great movie is just to let Jason Clarke interrogate people with an escalating amount of intensity.

  • The Hunger Games

    The Hunger Games

    ★★★★

    Say what you will about the filmmaking choices, but the casting is just off-the-charts good. This also made for an interesting watch post Songbirds and Snakes.

    Great concept, great execution, these movies are really good!

  • Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy

    Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy

    ★★★★★

    At an appropriate time, I would very much be into another limited series adaptation, preferably on HBO. If it’s on Netflix I will commit arson.

  • Tomorrow Never Dies

    Tomorrow Never Dies

    ★★★½

    Michelle 👏 Yeoh 👏

    This definitely registers as one of the more fluffy and fun Bond movies, but it’s also one that’s aged especially well given the subject matter.

  • Watchmen

    Watchmen

    ★★★

    This proved once and for all that adapting Watchmen was possible, and perhaps necessary, no matter what that grump Alan Moore says.

    It also proved that the person tasked with adapting it needed to understand the story better than Snyder seems to here.

    Maybe one day.

  • A Simple Plan

    A Simple Plan

    ★★★★

    Can’t help but love a nice, taut, morally ambiguous thriller.
