I'm not on any of these review sites but the idea of having only four top films is unique in the era where some have a top 100 by year.

Freddy Got Fingered is one of the rare DVDs that has both an R cut and a PG cut on the same disc.

It's a feature I'm surprised isn't on more discs as some prefer the TV edits for things like Road House, The Big Lebowski and a lot of Kevin Smith films.

228/390

Not quite two-thirds yet.

The weirdest thing is Aerosmith's last album of new material came out in loving 2012.

If you dig somewhat there are a lot of bands that had lesser-known days. My favorite might be late 1960s Judas Priest during its blues era:

Twin Peaks: The Return -- 18hr series digitally recorded but broadcast over cable television in individual episodes: Not a film, until it was aired concurrently in cinemas in special screenings at which point it became a film

When TV shows are followed by critically acclaimed movies I do hold off. I still don't know if I want to watch Twin Peaks or the Neon Genesis Evangelion TV series or just some of the films.

TrixRabbi posted:

...but what about animated GIFs? What about that animated GIF that was the entirety of Terminator 2 in full at original framerate?

Probably.

It's 2019 and even though billions of people stream movies on Netflix/YouTube et al. they never say things like "That's not a film. It's a H.264/MPEG-4 AVC file!"

I'm not sure what you mean by this in relation to Twin Peaks. The film isn't like, a remake of the movies the way Eva kind of is with it's movies.

Yea, it's a different situation. I've heard it said that one should not watch Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me because it's a prequel to the first series. And that watching it would be very confusing.

If that's not true I'd be open to watching it.

Quite possibly the best intro of the century.

I've finally updated my complete TSPDT list for 2020 (just in time to have to redo it again in a couple months): “They Shoot Pictures, Don’t They?” – The Complete List (Every Film From Every Edition)

I just need to see A Man Escaped to finish the top 100. I should try to do that soon.

I'm working on a list of movies in which people eat badly. Like, the tomato scene in lord of the rings, the squid scene in oldboy that wasn't even acting but real and also despite the actor being vegetarian and similar terrible food situations. Looking for input on this important matter

I did a thing.

Taking suggestions, both on new titles and "which one is the good one."

Rules: no remakes/reboots/public domain stuff like Dracula or Robin Hood, just two completely unique movies that happen to have the exact same title. I'll allow articles like 'The' or 'A,' but anything more than that and I consider them different films.

A few that came to mind:

Notorious (1946 / 2009)
The Black Swan / Black Swan
Kicking & Screaming / Kicking and Screaming

I'm 0/6 on these; which ones are 'the good ones'

The consensus would say: Notorious (1946), Black Swan (2010) and Kicking and Screaming (1995).

I noticed average review scores weren't showing for me, but nothing bad. I've been whipping the app because of a film festival, too.

Scorsese also joined Letterboxd and posted a bunch of companion films to his filmography with commentary. Fantastic stuff.

E:

He also has a Film Foundation list that is like, 900 films long of all the restoration work he's involved with: The Film Foundation https://boxd.it/pInR2

This is interesting. Lots of films I've been meaning to watch: The Heiress, The Day of the Jackal, Touchez Pas au Grisbi AKA Hands Off the Loot.
