God drat Widows was great. It reminded me how good movies are to the extent that I bought a ticket for Wildlife and am now waiting to see that.

Good to hear you say that, I trust most of your opinions and was wanting to catch it this weekend

I don’t know, I don’t even know if Pokemon Bank is available on Switch. And as far as I can tell it’s only the original 151, plus Alolan variants, plus Meltan/Melmetal, the new legendaries.

What about the Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Ionian, and Phrygian variants?

Yeah, Widows is great. The closest Steve McQueen will ever get to making a crowdpleaser.

When I saw the ads for that and it said "Directed by Steve McQueen" I was like "Wait, what?". It still looks pretty cool.

Making a movie about a circus elephant that isn't "Blackfish on land" is already a pretty fuckin questionable choice, so yeah, they might as well go for it.

Stretching a 60-something minute movie out to 2 hours means they'll probably be keeping everything.

This is true. Funnily enough I was just talking to someone yesterday about how the final season being a disappointment means I remember it overall in a less good light and am more likely to forget about it when thinking of the best shows of the decade but it really is so goddamn good holy poo poo (plus I just finished s1 of Deadwood with Ray McKinnon as the preacher and man no wonder he’s such a good director of actors, he’s incredible in the role)

Widows is definitely a pulpy thriller but it’s a smart pulpy thriller with great character work.

I also liked Wildlife very much, although not as much as Widows. Good low-stakes choice for Dano to make for his first movie. I had forgotten just how talented Carey Mulligan really is, she’s loving stupendous, almost terrifying at times

My favorite Pokémon is the one who is really cute in it's first stage but eventually evolves Into a big scary monster.

That and the one whose name is a pun.

Women On The Verge of a Mental Breakdown is fun, but kinda left me wanting. I guess I'm just not that huge on Pedro Almodovar's stuff, even though his films should totally be my poo poo on paper. This is the third time this year I've tried. Maybe there's something I'm not getting?
I love his color palette, though.

I saw Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! and The Skin I Live In this year, and Volver god knows how long ago. He's a director I like, but he kinda feels like someone I should love.
