kalel posted:lol that's so fuckin bad I remember reading stupid culture journalists complaining about TD season 2 and saying they could redeem the show by linking it back to the 'mystery' of the first season. And, yeah, maybe that'd be neat but also you could just make a good show instead that stands on its own. But I also liked season 3 and I don't know what the consensus is on that.

You should watch Without A Paddle (2004)  An endearing tale of 3 friends, who after their other friend dies, go off to fulfill their childhood pact to find DB Cooper's loot and spend most of the movie fleeing from murderous rednecks, only to discover the real treasure is living life to the fullest. You should not watch Strange Wilderness (2008)  A crappy Happy Madison movie about an idiot and his stoner pals trying to find Bigfoot to save the tv show he took over from his dead father. The most bottomest of the bottom barrel grossout humor and just a terrible frustrating story the whole way through.

Watched "The Duellists", Ridley Scott's big breakthrough film. Thought it was pretty meh,. It did deliver on the volume of duels you'd want, but didn't have a ton going on outside of that. The best scene was very early when Carradine goes to collect Keitel to face the music with the military brass for dueling, and the mad fucker goads him into dueling him. I also liked how it portrayed a growing rot in the French military as they slog from miserable campaign to miserable campaign, and the feeling around the two guys who keep dueling each other goes from "these are the dumbest two fuckers I've ever met in my life" to "Oh, no you guys have to duel. It's what you do, and it would be a lot of fun for the rest of us." Also every timeskip they've both risen through the ranks, the military must be full of dumb assholes if they let Keitel be a brigadier general.

You know between The Duellists, Guy and Raynald in Kingdom of Heaven, the D-Day Invasion in Robin Hood, all of The Last Duel and Napoleon, I'm not sure that Ridley Scott particularly likes the French.

Yeah, I'm not taking it as a history lesson or anything.  Keitel's character is the biggest rear end in a top hat in the world and a hard-core Bonapartist

priznat posted:Fargo the series has stuck some weird poo poo in from time to time. It could be that dude is full of poo poo too, it’s never really demonstrated he has supernatural powers, just is a huge weirdo. Could be his backstory he has crafted in his head to explain why the rich and powerful use him for their own ends. He was great though, and I think out of all the Fargo seasons it has the most positive ending? I mean... didn't season two have a UFO battle? Spellcasting immortal Welsh assassin is probably fine. I ended up really liking season 5, and it's tied with season 3 for my favorite of the run. Message-wise, it felt like a kind season which, given the state of the world, was appreciated. Ending it with a bit of gosh golly "Loving and forgiving ourselves and others is the only way to cut the modern Gordian Knot of totalizing ugliness." worked really well for me.

It just kind of happened and then went away, whereas Munch seems like a more central thing the story hinges on. Like, you can drop the UFO poo poo from S2 and it wouldn’t really matter, you can’t do that with Munch in S5, he matters a whole lot.

kalel posted:We haven't had this good a best picture list in literally 8 years It's a pretty solid list. Also, I'm super-irked that American Fiction is probably gonna lose to Oppenheimer in every single category where it is nominated. (RDJ is gonna get a "thanks for the great career and for making us all so much loving money" Oscar, even though Sterling K Brown really deserves it.) Some people I know are also pretty upset that Gerwig didn't get a Best Director nomination. I'm just going to assume that they haven't seen many movies this year. Not that Glazer deserves his nomination (or that The Zone of Interest deserves any nominations at all), but even if that could be swapped out there are a ton of other movies that deserve a Best Director nomination before Gerwig deserves it for Barbie. (Todd Haynes for May December, Celine Song for Past Lives, Cord Jefferson for American Fiction, etc etc etc)

It's an intensely and inherently collaborative artform.)

Apparently Ant-Man 3 is the first MCU movie to be nominated for Razzies, and while I do kinda hate the Razzies I have to say it totally deserves it. Just a blatantly garbage movie that offered basically nothing to the audience but expected success regardless.
