Snowpiercer was all right. Worth a watch for sure. People build it up too much though. Maybe it's just a Korean train movie thing.

I spent the entire day finishing Rectify. I can't imagine anything could ever compare to it. Television doesn't normally make me well up like that.

It hits every single emotion you can experience while consuming art, and it does so skillfully. The movie is beautiful, original, and absolutely full of moments that I can fondly recall years after I have first seen it. It's easily the best South Korean horror-comedy-romance-tragedy-action-thriller-supernatural-gore film I've ever seen.

I watched like 4 episodes of Baskets while I was stuck in a Zelda dungeon tonight. I'm really not sure if I like it or not. Sometimes it reminds me of a really depressing Napoleon Dynamite, except funnier but that isn't saying much. Louie Anderson as his mom is great though.

What are some other good dramas in the vein of Twin Peaks/Broadchurch/Happy Valley etc? Hinterland is what you're looking for, Top of the Lake is good too. Hinterland has the distinction of being the only British crime drama of the last few years which actually had a good second season. Both are on the 'flix.

Actual suggestions (though Thirst is definitely worth paying to rent, it's an amazing movie): The Host - monster movie, pretty funny too. A Hard Day - Dirty cops runs someone over, scrambles to hide the evidence. Very tense. Old Boy - If you haven't seen this yet for some reason, watch it now. New World - (on Hulu), gangster flick Raskolnikov2089 fucked around with this message at 18:43 on Mar 26, 2017 |

Yeah, I watched that one more or less by accident because I was on a "weird asian movies" spree, and it kind of blew me away by how legitimately good it was. It was still pretty drat weird at times, but in a really good way.

Yes! Really beautiful and touching film and surprisingly funny and romantic. I'll watch Tom Hanks' Castaway whenever it is on, but Castaway on The Moon shits all over the former in every way. isaboo fucked around with this message at 22:48 on Mar 26, 2017 |

I'm not a huge anime guy but One Punch man is great for how it doesn't dick around with certain recurring tropes. Particularly the one where Verylarge Badguy is invincible and the hero has to Train A Lot or just Learn Very Important Lesson to defeat him. Saitama is less like the hero of the show and more like a guy who has an anime happening in his vicinity. They do a great job in the early episodes of beating it into you that, no, this is not going to be like anything else you've watched. Episode 1: Ah, I get it. So this is going to be about him trying to find a worthy opponent, huh? Alright, that's different, I guess. Episode 2: Aaaaaah. So sure he can beat anyone in one punch but he's going to have trouble with a swarm of mosquit-- oh, well, never mind. Episode 2-3: Ah ha! So they're setting up a recurring villain type character, eh? So I guess they'll bring this guy back in...okay, never mind. Episode 4: Okay, this time I got it. He's super strong but he's going to have trouble with this guy who's much faster than-- ... ... okay, okay I get it now and I'm shutting up. Might also be a good show to watch to wash the taste of Iron Fist out of your mouth if you just wanted to watch somebody punch things really hard. Edit: First saw it with the English dubbing and I'm not against subtitles but I think I prefer the dub. The English voice actor has a blase sort of tone for most of it that works really well.

The former is a classic, the latter I haven't seen so can't comment. Vanilla Sky and The Last Samurai on Netflix both have their charms.

Vanilla Sky has not aged well, and it's hard to pinpoint why, but at the time it was one of the best films I had ever seen in my life. Blew the original out of the water.
