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 it’s animation budget.

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

I watched grave of the fireflies… 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 it’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 it’s so bizarre.

Missed ā€˜Widows’ first time around, watched last night and it’s very good.

Yeah I heard it wasn’t all that so didn’t bother, it was great.

Just watched Red dot on Netflix. Was ok, very predictable.
I haven’t watched any films lately, could do with some recommendations.

Currently watching Judas and the Black Messiah. Seems good so far…

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

I’m going to cry like a baby when Tom Hanks dies, he’s been in some great roles and you know exactly what you’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 I’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 don’t think I’d even heard of it before.
Its about 3 hours and I wanted it to last forever.

Just watched ā€˜I Care A Lot’ on Prime.
Pretty good psychological thriller.

Rosamund Pike is a very weird person.

I’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 good…

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.
