Don't think people have as much of an appreciation as they should of how hard 80s martial art film stuntmen went.

Just brutal hits with minimum padding.

That scene includes some very serious on camera injuries even!

when a stunt failed in 80s Hong Kong, they kept it in and showed it in slow motion

It really really sounds like it. Particularly Serenoa, he starts off really stiff but by the climactic scenes he's into it. Frederica is good the whole way through though.

TAR is the only film I walked out of knowing I watched an outright classic. Top Gun of course was Tom Cruise saving cinema, so that's good. Armageddon Time was also surprisingly not as bad as I thought it was going to be, granted I thought the trailers looked terrible so it didn't have much to fight against. Seeing people try and push the Fabelmens just feels sad, it ain't that good. Elvis getting talk makes me feel like I slipped into a parallel reality governed only by insanity and hysterics. That film's got the depth of a puddle and the worst performance Hanks has put out since Terminal. EO has some incredibly sick drone shots and creative camera work in service of an absolute mess of a plot. Medieval is a movie that apparently only I saw, but it was pretty sick, not the best I saw last year though. Bones and All is one of the few movies that I think should've surfaced it's anti Regan criticism more, and the director should've reigned in Rylance in more too, he's just making choices too big for the tale being told. Babylon is Boogie Nights if you shift the subject matter back a couple decades, and lose a lot of the cohesion and impact, but a substandard Boogie Nights is still a better movie than most that come out nowadays. It also has the most disgusting and horrific sequence I've ever seen in theatres, truly repellent. Juxtaposing Bergman's Persona with Camerons Avatar bullshit seeing poo poo like that could shake a man to his core.

So my list is like
5.Moonage Daydream
4.Northman
3.Babylon
2.Top Gun Maverick
1.TAR

2022 movies, not ranked:

Glass Onion - it’s not as good as knives out but still good
Blackout - one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen, just the dregs of made for streaming movies
Death on the Nile - this is a very expensive feeling movie
This place rules - I liked it more before finding out about the sexual abuse allegations against Andrew Callaghan
Emily the criminal - Aubrey plaza is pretty good at acting!
The Batman - I like this less the more i think about it
The 355 - Women assassins? I barely even remember watching this
RRR - best movie of the year, not even close

e:

My goal for next year is to watch 84 movies from my letterbox watchlist (like a specific 84, not just any).

So far I’ve seen:

Lotr return of the king - it’s really long but I’m glad to have watched it finally
The iron giant - I’m a big sucker and this made me cry
A bittersweet life - a really great Korean action movie that is actually a thoughtful western

Death on the Nile was the worst movie I saw last year, See how they run and Knives Out show that mystery movies still work, how Kenneth Branagh is allowed to still commit crimes against the Christie corpus is beyond me.

Green Knight was the best movie to fall asleep in the theatre and wake up to a fever dream I saw this year. The Menu was the best movie I saw today, finally a movie about how rich people suck and there are actually consequences instead of gentle ennui.

also The Menu would be a great Hitman level that plays itself.

See how they run was really great, we watched it randomly and then because we wanted more of that kind of movie we watched the two Branagh poirot movies. I saw worse movies last year but probably not if you factor in budget and expectations.

I wish my attention span hadn't withered into non-existence as I got older. I have so many books to read and things I want to watch but I have so much trouble doing anything without getting distracted.

I think the last movie I watched all the way through was loving Rise of Skywalker in the cinema.

Certainly no other film this year had the tastemaker class of normals showing their entire rear end while misunderstanding the material on a fundamental level quite like Tar, but I don't think the movie was on a mission to be easily digestible anyways.

I liken it to CRPGs having tooltips for some proper nouns in dialogue that have a lil explainer when you mouse over them. First place I think I saw that was Pillars of Eternity. Obsidian is always best

my dad died last year and on request from my mom I went through his laptop to find any files that we might want to keep before we recycle the laptop. I found his saved porn collection. it was pretty generic image collections. Out of respect to him I deleted it so my mom and sister wouldn't have to know

I think it's great when an RPG respects that you might be playing other games concurrently and don't have the mental bandwidth to remember who every character is or what every term means.
