mike12345 posted:Is the Last Jedi more fun? I need some crappy movies for new years, trying to catch up with last years hype(s). The first half(?) is pretty movie-movie, but then it just devolves into badly-edited action intercut with lengthy bits of expository dialogue. When you see it referred to as ‘subversive’, this actually means the narrative incoherence from obvious focus-group mandated reshoots defied hypercommercial youtuber clickbait-speculation.

Happy New Year, you filthy animals. Seriously, a lot of y'all are better friends than I deserve, and I firmly intend, with all of my mind, body and soul, to make 2019 kick rear end as opposed to the shitshow that was 2018.

Like, if there's one overarching message of Game Over, Man! - like, something that consistently holds as a theme established in the beginning and paying off at the end - it's that really getting your dick cut off isn't such a big deal.

2019 is the year Akira, Blade Runner, and The Running Man take place in. A good year for dystopias.

After watching a bit of Bandersnatch last night and thinking about this looming huge research assignment I'm going to have this semester at uni, are there any other films that actively engage the audience/gently caress with expectations of narrative choices? I've thought of the William Castle one, Mr Sardonicus, and Clue (to an extent) as well as Bandersnatch, obviously.

I've been putting off making a Letterboxd account for too long so as long as their site is tablet friendly I think I'll actually get to that today.

I have close to 1000 films ranked on criticer, I really don't want to put in the effort to move it over. If I don't care about looks, what kind of stats and stuff can I get from Letterboxd that would give me an incentive to get on there?

The first movie I have watched in 2019 isn't really a proper movie; it's the concert film Queen Rock Montreal (originally released in 1981 as We Will Rock You and then re-released in this form in 2007). It isn't as good as Stop Making Sense but it's still good stuff. Despite the purportedly difficult circumstances which surrounded its production, I think it captures the band at their absolute peak. It was all shot in 35mm whereas a lot of concert recordings are shot on video so it looks very good as well.

Men in Black is the official first movie of the year for me. That got me wanting to watch X Files again, which was apparently taken off Netflix, long story short I ended up getting Hulu finally. What's good on there? I'm excited to finally watch Skate Kitchen.

married but discreet posted:I have close to 1000 films ranked on criticer, I really don't want to put in the effort to move it over. If you don't care about aesthetics, the lists are the reason to make the switch. Those lists are so much better than anything Criticker produced and that's coming from someone who used it for like 8 years. I had 2,083 rankings on Criticker when I made the switch, it's never going to be easier than it is now. What helped me was simplifying the process - unless I had a really clear star rating in mind for something that I watched before switching systems, I just marked it watched or watched and liked.
