Or possibly last year, not 2017. Still a high number but I've had years like that where I watched something almost every single day.

I did mean 300 watched throughout 2016; i drive a security car around town all night and my dashboard tablet is constantly playing something because i do not value my safety. Or my time, as my 3 most obscure movies are Little Miss Perfect (2016) - Ginny eat something Honey 3: Dare to Dance (2016) - A hip-hop R&J, y'all Clowntown (2016) - What those sightings last year were probably viral marketing for.

I'm such a pleb. All the movies I've watched have been seen by at least 289 others! 289 is kind of a depressingly low number though for the Apu Trilogy. More people need to watch that. Its pretty funny though, my most "obscure" movies are all lovely 90's crap that I saw just because I was a kid and movies are awesome. We're talkin Cop and a Half, Camp Nowhere, and Ladybugs. The 90's really were something.

Spatulater bro! posted:What are the most obscure movies you've rated on Letterboxd? Go to your films and sort by popularity. I got: The Secret of the Selenites (1984)- **1/2, a really cheap animated movie that played on Nickelodeon once with a memorable theme song. Rated as high as it is for nostalgia. Invasion Earth: The Aliens Are Here! (1988)- ***1/2, one of those clip compilation movies focused on 50s sci fi and monster movies, with the framing device of aliens taking over a theater. The Martian Chronicles (1980)- **1/2, the TV miniseries adaptation w/Rock Hudson. A lot of it falls flat but I enjoyed their take on "And The Moon Be Still As Bright" The Mouse and His Child (1977)- unrated since it's been forever. Lords of the Deep (1989)- ditto, low budget attempt to cash in on The Abyss.

Most obscure is Christmas Under Fire, a British WWII propaganda film that was screened before a Christmas showing of It's A Wonderful Life I went to in 2012. 14 viewers. As far as full-length "proper" movies, it's the god-awful 2006 movie The Contract with John Cusack and Morgan Freeman which I think was largely straight-to-video. But I've also only rated up to G and the TSP list.

Spatulater bro! posted:What are the most obscure movies you've rated on Letterboxd? Go to your films and sort by popularity. Snake in the Eagles Shadow 2 (1978, just me): This sequel is by most accounts a movie called Snaky Knight Fight Against Mantis with footage from Snake in the Eagle’s Shadow spliced in to capitalize on Jackie Chan’s name. Kennel Tokorozawa (1992, two people): Punk Dog. Pet shop owner’s daughter Chika Tokorozawa spends every waking hour with her dog, Rin Tin Tin, who repays her love by watching over her while she sleeps. Based on the manga in Young Sunday magazine by Maki Otsubo, who is better known in the manga world for Mr. Cinema. La Pastorela: The Shepherd’s Tale (1991, two people): Originally produced for PBS’s Great Performances Series, La Pastorela is a musical retelling of the shepherds’ journey to Bethlehem to see the Christ Child. We see the tale through the eyes of a modern young girl, the oldest child in a large rural Tex-Mex family. During a surrealistic dream, which brings to mind “The Wizard of Oz,” the young chicana makes a fantastical journey with the shepherds and along the way, witnesses the triumph of God’s Angels over Satan’s diablos. Full of drama, comedy, fantasy and wonderful music; this is a rare film the whole family can enjoy together. Traveling Man (1989, two people): A poignant comedy about a middle-aged salesman trying to get his life and career back on track while being pushed and antagonized by an aggressive rookie he has been teamed up with. Where’s Willie? (1978, two people): An 8-year old boy invents a hand-held computer which can control any electronic device, and uses it to affect the entire town where he lives.

It was some really bizarre anime bullshit and felt like a fever dream all the way through. The most obscure movie I have on letterboxd is probably The Business of Fancydancing.

It appears that Letterboxd has removed Histoire(s) du cinema from their database. So the TSPDT list is now one short. Why would they remove it?

I dunno, they get weird about what things they have on their site. Like I know they've gone back and forth on whether Twin Peaks: The Missing Pieces is even a movie or not.

You know what feature Letterboxd really needs to add? The ability to cross-reference lists. It would just be a filter, like the current "In Your Watchlist" filter, only it would let you choose any list. This would be so incredibly useful.

I, Butthole posted:I finally finished my Tati watch-a-thon: https://letterboxd.com/aewade/list/watchin-and-rankin-jacques-tati/ I guess my problem is that I watched Playtime first, and it seems like, from what I've read about Playtime, any Tati film I see after that will probably be a let down. The expansiveness of Playtime is really unbelievable, and from what I understand Tati never really had those kind of resources before or after that.

I'd definitely be interested in a recommended Tati order. Almost watched Playtime recently but now glad I didn't.

Escobarbarian posted:I'd definitely be interested in a recommended Tati order. Almost watched Playtime recently but now glad I didn't. Chronologically is pretty good - maybe sit Trafic in ahead of Playtime and if you have the Criterion set, shotgunning all the shorts ahead of them all is a nice mini-map that reflects his features almost perfectly. Playtime really is the be-all-end-all of Tati, but Parade is worth keeping for last because for me, it distills him away from his exploration of film and lets him just exist as a comic while strongly reinforcing his belief that comedy is not purely the realm of the performer, but includes the audience as well. As a film, it's undoubtedly his worst, but as a statement, it's such a starkly encapsulating piece that ends up being so fitting as his final feature. It took me two months to really muster up the courage to sit down and watch Playtime because of everything I'd heard of how gargantuan it is, but I really can't wait to get back into it again. It can't be stated how goddamn great it is and how much of an honest to god marvel it is to watch - outside of it though Tati is a master physical comedian and all the Hulot films are a joy
