Baz Luhrmann is a tacky vulgarian and should never be allowed to make a film ever again.

That movie title makes me think of some sort of swamp Disney singing animal thing, or Ghost World’s parody Miramax-style art film “The Flower that Drank the Moon”

I want to see the bit of The Fabelmans where he finally meets John Ford and it's David Lynch, but YouTube will probably sort me out for that if I wait a few months.

Something about the Violent Night premise is intensely irritating to me.

gleefully smug transgressive action movies kinda wearying to me in general, maybe moreso these days. santa claus as a skilled wildcard killer foiling the bad guys' plans almost too dumb to be real. the die hard in a chimney premise almost feels like a simpsons parody.

I’ll possibly end up seeing it anyway, but The Whale looks miserable.

Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths

The theatrical version of The Whale is an incredibly moving piece of theatre. No idea how the film version will shake out but I'm going to give it a try.
Violent Night ruled. It's a bit weird in that its core, it's really a traditional family Christmas movie, but then eventually bad guys get decapitated.
It's more like Miracle on 34th Street with Santa ruthlessly killing bad guys to protect a little girl from harm.

Pretty sure The Whale.

it's a heartwarming, wistful memories of dad movie isn't it? I've seen people praising it but I've not felt very tempted to watch it as yet.

Wistful, sure. Dunno about heartwarming.

Saw a poster for Tar after coming out of a re-screening of Roman Holiday (Wyler, 1953). I can see the value of wanting things like this: light script (with stuff beneath if you wanted to go there), beautiful leads with chemistry, the right length of 90 minutes so no overstaying.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 February 2023 09:58 (one year ago) link
Films are absolutely all too long these days. Or rather, they spend too much time in the 2 1/2, 3 hour zone. Give me 80 min or give ne 4 hours.
― Daniel_Rf, Monday, 6 February 2023 10:49 (one year ago) link
Very few films justify the length of over two hours.
And the most repetitive but truthful comment is to say that x film was great but 20 mins too long.

It's become especially noticeable since 2020, as if COVID killed editors.

It's weird because something frivolous, fun, but also nicely made and played, that doesn't speak to anything contemporary and 'short' would be just the ticket after 2/3 years of no cinema.
(I am not looking too closely so I'm sure those things are about, but what dominates attention -- and is sadly on my radar -- is stuff like Tar rn)
