Do America is still the better movie, but Beavis and Butthead Do the Universe is still way better than a B&B movie has any right to be in 2022.

There's just something about Judge's delivery with Beavis that I still love all these years later.

I didn't care much for the white lotus but it was a pretty funny choice to have graphic full frontal male nudity and dudes banging but like one brief shot of a boob

nonathlon posted:Enlightened is a masterpiece. Just very adult, happy to be complicated and ambiguous, comfortable with being uncomfortable. Oh for sure. I remember it being a bit cringey to watch at first, but by the end I was absolutely IN IT, and was upset that it wasn't renewed for season 3. Mike White's season of Survivor was one of the best seasons ever. Survivor season 38: David vs Goliath. I think it's streaming on Netflix right now, and is also on Paramount Plus. He was on the Goliath tribe, as he is a successful Hollywood screenwriter and actor. He placed second. The only other celebrity to go on the show and do as well as him would be Lisa Whelchel, who played Blair on the Facts of Life and also placed second.

Saw MAD GOD on shudder. I liked it, but was both grossed out and deeply confused, which I think was the point. Beautifully made though.

I just watched Alligator on Shudder which was a lot better than I was expecting. I got diagnosed with covid (first time!) yesterday so I'm looking forward to working through the Shudder catalogue over the next week.

Punkin Spunkin posted:How do you rate it alongside Crawl, if you've seen that? That film is kind of a recommend tbh, if only to see Barry Pepper grunting while he hits an alligator with a shovel. Also apparently produced by Sam Raimi. Thanks Sam! Well, Crawl doesn't have Henry Silva in it for a start... and I only have vague recollections of the movie so I can't give an honest comparison.

Well, I just cancelled my Shudder trial. Way too many buffering and video quality issues that I don't get on other streaming services. On the upside, I have discovered Tubi has all the Full Moon Features movies. I'm currently 'enjoying' Creepozoids (1987).

Spent the entirety of Season 4 of Stranger Things believing it was the last season and was very confused at the end until I googled and found out there’s actually going to be 5 seasons.

I watched Puppet Master last night which was duller than it had any right to be given the premise. Maybe the later movies are more fun? Today I watched Lurking Fear which was a forgettable H.P. Lovecraft adaptation, in the way most of them are. I followed it up with Trancers which was full of 80s cheese but surprisingly fun. I don't think I'll watch the other five films in the series, though. To cap it all off, I just finished Shadowzone, a mash up of Alien and The Thing. It actually had an interesting premise but didn't quite stick the landing for me.

One of the puppetmaster movies is a clip show. Anyway the first and second are the best of at least first 10ish, they were still occasionally stop motion animating them, after that it's just recycling the footage of blade running and puppeting them in front of the camera like action figures by the feet.

Yeah, the Puppet Master franchise peaks with the first two imo. If you dislike those already, abandon ship because it gets Rough

In regards to the Trancers sequels, while I haven't seen them it's a series that people who like the first movie really seem to continue digging. So it might be worth it if you ever feel the need for more Jack Deth in your life.

I've only seen the first two Trancers movies, overall the first is a lot better but the second movie has probably the best 30 seconds in film history.

Also someone mentioned Future Kick a while back in some thread, that movie takes place entirely within that future bit at the beginning of trancers but also everybody kickboxes all the time.

I watched Nemesis last night, which also took place in a future where everyone kickboxes all the time. It's a fun companion piece to either movie.

Nemesis is completely insane - it’s blatantly a ripoff of like four other movies shoved together into one cyberpunk kickboxing fever dream. Bring back European kickboxer actors!
