oh wait B.McC was posted

just saw marie antoinette the other night, it ruled

and I hear good things about John Wick

Ha, I knew I was setting myself up with that post. Although I should've clarified that I meant biographical films using that title format. Under the new, tightened restrictions, I'd say the only exceptions mentioned that prove the rule are Ed Wood and Air Bud.

Erin Brockovitch?

Marie Antoinette doesn’t fit firstname + lastname formula y’all

Definitely one that sucked was Steve Jobs

Probably doesn’t need to be stated, but: Cats

I totally forgot Cats was even happening until I saw some fancy new edition of the Eliot book today. And then I remembered and I died. I died, guys. I died.

Most of the movies represented during the pre-Star Wars trailer suite looked like steamy refuse but the only one that stood out enough to really get my goat was the one that, sight unseen, I would've found the least objectionable.

Why. The fuck. Is the dog in the new Call of the Wild 100% bad CGI. What could possibly justify not using an actual dog in a live action movie about a dog. Did Harrison Ford only agree to star if they were willing to hang a green screen hung in his living room so he never had to leave his easy chair?

EXCLUSIVE: James @mang0ld to direct Timothee Chalamet in Searchlight’s #GoingElectric about Bob Dylan’s move from folk to rock musichttps://t.co/OZnkvp1dVs

Lol good nominee

ugggggh Fuckkkk that!

Chalamet is a terrible actor

coming around on it purely for the fact that no on will be more annoyed at its existence than robert himself

I thought I read he was executive producing it?

jesus, missed that

some fuckwit has made a movie about the military wives choir

We needed calendar girls for gammonettes

I would watch a Short Cuts style movie about the wall of gammon lads tbh

I once sent a very offensive and treasonable comment to military wives choir on twitter in response to their xmas single when i was pissed. GCHQ probably have a file on me.

ugh, Peter Cattaneo

as well as all that other parochial garbage he also did the fucking A Word. I nearly assaulted my television with a lump hammer over that shit!

jesus what a wasteman

ffs Sharon Horgan youre better than this

She was also in that awful Game Night movie, which she was also better than.

Crazy Samurai Musashi: https://www.filmfreakcentral.net/ffc/2020/08/fantastia-fest-20-crazy-samurai-musashi.html

I love examples where certain reviews are better than the movie itself

Tenet

The Painted Bird

What if you saved a souvenir from every relationship you've ever been in? THE BROKEN HEARTS GALLERY follows the always unique Lucy (Geraldine Viswanathan), a 20-something art gallery assistant living in New York City, who also happens to be an emotional hoarder. After she gets dumped by her latest boyfriend, Lucy is inspired to create The Broken Heart Gallery, a pop-up space for the items love has left behind. Word of the gallery spreads, encouraging a movement and a fresh start for all the romantics out there, including Lucy herself.

it's the last sentence that really suggests "this will be trite and forced and awful"

Pete formerly of this parish had a lot of good things to say about it - it stars the actress who played John Cena's daughter from Blockers!

well, certainly i support her getting more work! the kids in Blockers were all really good iirc.

Avoiding it all this year as the 2nd wave comes along :-(

otm times a thousand

Hillbilly Elegy

o shit yes

Spencer
Belfast

Spencer's good, but in an "effective portrait of a miserable situation" way. which i would fault no one for avoiding.

Dune

i am also avoiding belfast

i liked dune. it is about as "out there" as a mainstream movie can get.

It's going to turn into a three film bore fest. Just can't face it.

The worms are definitely boring… through the sand, that is

I lasted ten minutes through King Richard.

Gonna be fantastic seeing Big Willie Style sweep the crix awards this year.
