Such an awesome movie.

My god, I have just seen possibly the worst film ever made. Gods of Egypt.
To be fair it was just on in the background while I have been doing other stuff.
Fucking hell though, it looked like Attack of the clones if it lost 90% of itā€™s animation budget.

Such a great film. Especially love the RZA bit. Have you seen Paterson? Thereā€™s an amazing scene with Method Man.

I watched grave of the firefliesā€¦ once.

My missus came home as the end credits were rolling and she thought something terrible had happened. I was a fucking mess.

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING film that I never need to watch again.

Another studio ghibli cry-athon is The Tale of Princes Kaguya. Not quite as horrifying but still sad.

I think itā€™s trying to teach you about regret and doing the right thing. But it just rips your heart out and stamps on it.

I cant even mention how it ends because itā€™s so bizarre.

Missed ā€˜Widowsā€™ first time around, watched last night and itā€™s very good.

Yeah I heard it wasnā€™t all that so didnā€™t bother, it was great.

Just watched Red dot on Netflix. Was ok, very predictable.
I havenā€™t watched any films lately, could do with some recommendations.

Currently watching Judas and the Black Messiah. Seems good so farā€¦

Just watching News of The World now with Tom Hanks. Itā€™s pretty pedestrian but not in a bad way. A old guy/young girl bond on a road trip movie set in a Western.

Iā€™m going to cry like a baby when Tom Hanks dies, heā€™s been in some great roles and you know exactly what youā€™re getting.

On a Thomas vinterberg mish at the mo, watched Festen, the hunt and another round.
All seriously amazing.

Also filling in the Kurosawa banks Iā€™d been missing: rashomon, Ran and red beard.
All great obvsss but red beard was so fucking mind blowing and easily in my film top 10. I donā€™t think Iā€™d even heard of it before.
Its about 3 hours and I wanted it to last forever.

Just watched ā€˜I Care A Lotā€™ on Prime.
Pretty good psychological thriller.

Rosamund Pike is a very weird person.

Iā€™ve got that one lined up next.
Just finished Escape from Pretoria and I really enjoyed it.
Harry Potter did a pretty good job!

Yeah Escape from Pretoria was good. One of his better post-HP films.

Guns Akimbo was less goodā€¦

I watched Moxie last night on Netflix.
100% recommend to all you teenagers out there. ha ha.

I did enjoy it though. Mainly due to the Bikini Kill bits but fuck me, I felt old.

Just watched this film short. Pretty good fun.
