The Last Jedi I haven't seen, haven't watched a Star Wars movie since '84, not my cup of tea. I'm more into Alien and Aliens, more gritty sci-fi films. However, The Shape of Water is in my top 10 and maybe even my all-time favorite.

The Shape of Water has suspense, intrigue, it had atmosphere of the 1950's or 1960's, it has a real monster, it's a great villain in Michael Shannon, and the heroine was mute, someone who's is always put down and yet she has compassion for the creature. It brings out the same feelings like a Forrest Gump. Maybe it's a generation thing, I'm 69 and have seen thousands of films, many bad and many good. My favorite all time film is Chinatown from '74. I guess I'm not alone, The Shape of Water did win Best Picture Oscar.

I've been wanting to see Sisters Brothers. Netflix doesn't have it and it's has not played on any of the premium channels I have, HBO, showtime etc.

I think it's on Amazon Prime if you have that.

It's an odd movie. It feels sort of like you have an extremely quirky script and the actors play it in a more straightforward way than it needs to be or just the opposite where you have a serious script and the actors play it in a quirky manner. I don't know. I like more traditional westerners so it didn't really work for me, and it wasn't strange enough to become a fun "weird" western tale.

There are some talented actors in it, but their performances seem a little stilted. The fight scenes aren't filmed in a very interesting manner either. Maybe the fault lies with the direction?

There is some very nice scenery however. And you get a surprise appearance by Carol Kane at the end.

That pretty much matches my feelings about it. I thought I would love this but something was just off about it. It isn't horrible or even bad - it is just off.

i watched The Turning. It is horrible. I wasn't a big fan of The Innocents but this version is just wrong. The acting is fine and Brooklyn Prince is adorable. Basically it is a creepy kid and a bunch of dream sequences (presented as reality until waking up) and the ending is something else.

What didn't you like about The Innocents?




Im watching 47 Meters Down: Uncaged right now. Pretty generic stuff. No tits so far either. How can a cgi shark in 2019 look less realistic than a rubber shark from 1975?

I really don't remember - when I think about it I just don't remember it fondly - but I looked on letterboxd and I gave it a heart so I must have liked it when I watched it. It hadn't crossed my mind until I was 5 minutes into The Turning.

I liked it (somewhat). The plot is ridiculous but I like claustrophobic horror. I enjoyed Crawl more but it was a fun watch.

An allegory apparently. It's one of those movies you watch to see wtf is actually going on and then when you get to the end you still don't have a ****ing clue.

I thought it was an ineffectual allegory about a struggling writer juggling a conflicting group of characters in an imaginary home. Actually it's an ineffectual allegory that "depicts the rape and torment of Mother Earth ... I (Jennifer Lawrence) represent Mother Earth; Javier, whose character is a poet, represents a form of God"

Toy Story 4 was just OK in my book. I really thought the new character Forkey was ****ing hilarious for some reason, but this one was probably the worst of the Toy Story bunch.

Just watched "Midway" I enjoyed it. Saw "1917" still on the fence. SW Last Jedi was ok b/c they tied what they could all together - very hard task.

Ah yes, this is a good ol' Darren Aronofsky film that left me quite shook when I saw it in theaters. The 3rd act is so batshit insane that I went with it. Wild film.

The thing with Darren Aronofsky is he directed Black Swan, the Wrestler and Requiem for a Dream, three films I gave 10 stars. What went wrong?

BTW, has any person outside of Hollywood seen Parasite? That reminds me of the Japanese film from 1985 "Ran". It was nominated for 4 Academy Awards and won best costume. Not one video store in Savannah had a copy, I ended renting the film in '89 when I moved to Atlanta and could find it. It was an incredible battle scenes on horses and great costumes. It's worth seeing, sort like the opening of Gladiator but the whole film.
