Add “sit through this movie” to the list of things I’d do for Ayoade.

Wildcat 2022
first time I’ve ever felt these feelings in a theater. Saw this thing so many times throughout the edit process, didnt think it could make me cry anymore. There are even more tears now.
I constantly wonder if making a deep hobby of mine into a career was the right decision, and it goes both ways at times. Sometimes I dont question it and other times I worry that I’ll end up hating both. After tonight, the experience of new feelings…

Rob Schneider: Asian Momma, Mexican Kids 2020
Mind if I write like 8 reviews real quick?
—————————
Squint your eyes and tell me who you see on stage. Is it:A) James Woods
B) Billy Crystal
C) Steve Buscemi
D) All of the above
—————————
Um, what’s the opposite of self care?
—————————
Rob uses his Asian mother to justify, uh, *gestures to racist dumpster fire*
—————————
“Is he... is he falling asleep right now?”

This is the longest intro to a Columbo guest villain/murder scenario… -
I Saw the TV Glow 2024
This is just a film adaptation of Plato’s allegory of the cave.
Had a really nice post-screening experience sharing coffee and dessert with friends.
Jane makes movies that don’t really feel like anyone else’s; it’s powerful and I’m interested to see where they go.

Milford Graves Full Mantis 2018
I maintain that this is probably the most personally important film I’ve seen all year. I’ve been trying to approach my work in many of the same ways Graves himself approaches life, and it’s helped me grow as an artist intensely.
We all have a propensity to listen to nature and go with our natural instincts from birth. However, we are immediately taught out of that way of thinking. For example, we all have a natural instinct to play music…

Tetsuo: The Iron Man 1989
Sometimes you give a movie 5 stars because it is technically flawless and sometimes you give it 5 stars because it’s just fucking awesome. This film is both.
If you ever have to describe the concept of industrial music, just recommend this film.

Love Lies Bleeding 2024
Was hoping this would be good and it's even better than I expected. Might go see it again.
Lights in the theater turned on during the climax, which was like someone walking in on you doing something nasty but awesome.

Demonlover 2002
35mm
Some movies have plot elements that are so obscure that they don’t make sense; in fact, many filmmakers don’t give them a purpose. It’s just supposed to be a feeling.Assayas gives them a purpose. You get the feeling, but the elements actually add up to something.
Sex, Power, Money (Jazmyne’s words). That’s what the film is. Lies, ghosts, consumerism. That’s what the film is. Assayas’ fetishistic playground. That’s what this film is.
This is the closest we’ll get to an Assayas Bond film. -
Licorice Pizza 2021
PTA’s Everybody Wants Some!!
Really dug it, lots of revisit-value.
Movies can make you feel so good that you feel bad.
