What's the latest movie you've seen?

[Guybrush]

Yes, Carrie is great 🙂 a bit underrated maybe as it doesn't get mentioned much.

For one dreadful moment there I thought they'd remade it.
Hands off the original, Hollywood! Stick to your superhero movies!

Rewatched The Royal Tenenbaums which I hadn't seen in like 19 years.



It's so good and a lot funnier than I remember it even, so I'm sure it's grown on me. I like Wes Anderson in his current form, but his earlier movies (especially Rushmore, Royal Tenenbaums and Life Aquatic) just blew my mind. They're so funny and quite dramatic in that subdued sense where certain characters struggle to maintain civility despite their inner pain and despair.

Anyways, love this. Funniest joke could be how Bill Murray's neurologist character Raleigh is always followed by his research subject, the cognitive deviant Dudley. When Raleigh is depressed, Dudley kindly asks if he'd like to experiment on him or run some tests to make him feel better 😄

Also people squatting when they talk and other silly things.

I don't care that much for Gene Hackman, but he's great in this. Most of the cast is, though Ben Stiller doesn't quite feel like a good fit.

It's a:

Rewatching Rushmore next which was my favourite of the bunch for a while way back, so I'm thinking I'll enjoy that one even more. Looking forward to finding out.

They did remake it in 2013.

I love that movie. The epitaph on the gravestone at the end is simultaneously one of the funniest and most bittersweet things I've ever seen on film.

Rushmore is still brilliant! If you haven't seen it, it's initially a movie about 15 year old student Max Fischer (Jason Schwartzman) who falls for a teacher (Olivia Williams) at his school and then eventually competes with his friend, the very much older Herman Blume (Bill Murray) for her attention.

This one may have more laugh out loud moments than any other Wes Anderson movie, at least for myself. Jason Schwartzman's Max Fischer walks a fine line between being a douche and a creep and likeable nerd. His dynamic with the endearing and somewhat sad Herman is so great.

It's hard to say if I like it more than The Royal Tenenbaums. It does have a very satisfying wrap at the end, so maybe this gets a slight preference.

Watch it if you haven't seen it!

Such a great movie!

MAX: I like your nurse's uniform guy.

PETER: These are OR scrubs.

MAX: Oh, are they?

Haha 😄 then he still invites the doc to his play at the end (but tells him to wear a tie). That whole dinner scene is great ❤️

We watched Saltburn today.



My wife picked up that it was popular a while back and wanted to see it. I had no idea what it was.

I don't wanna spoil the plot, but it wasn't a movie either of us really liked. As a romantic movie or a drama, it has no really likeable characters (imo) so I found it hard to care much. As a suspense movie, it's just not very exciting.

Other than that, I've already tired from movies and TVs obsession with rich people. The rich people in this movie seem like hugely unlikely parodies of what a dysfunctional rich family might be like. These characters don't seem real or believable.

I also didn't care that much for the cast. I have undeserved, bad associations with Barry Keoghan and his dead facial expressions from The Killing of a Sacred Deer. Seeing Richard Grant is always a pleasure, though.

For me personally, it's a

Wow. I really liked it and the ending is what helped so much to me.

Tank Girl

Like if Mad Max were badly made, racially stereotyping & trying to queerbait you, 10/10
Also nerdy tomboy Naomi Watts is HOT people

I've seen Tank Girl, but that was back in the 90s. I can't remember much at all.

Looks like it might be worth a revisit 🤔

Yeah, many like it. I guess I just didn't vibe with the movie or its characters at all.

[Marie Monday]

I should warn you that if the aesthetic and lesbian queerbaiting don't do much for you, it might not be worth it lol

[Marie Monday]

also I should mention that the soundtrack is impeccably fantastic and jarring, it'll throw Björk bangers at you like jumpscares
