Zathura: A Space Adventure was on TV and I was bored. Yeah it 's a blatent ripoff of Jumanji, but really a sci-fi themed version of that story is a solid concept. This film is not bad; not great. Kristen Stewart was kinda wasted in what was barely a role. Didn't really need the twist at the end, but how else are they going to squeeze in the incestuous undertone, i guess.
It's based on an actual sequel to the Jumanji book!

I finally watched Crimes of the Future and I think it was all about David Cronenberg making fun of the Oscars and also learning to like Marvel movies. it's funny that it's billed as a horror movie 'cause it's basically a really gross comedy imo

I really enjoyed it

I tried showing it to my roommate and he made it about halfway (to the reveal of the everything bagel) and started fidgeting and paused it and was like "WHAT THE gently caress THIS IS LIKE THREE HOURS LONG" and stomped off.

Last time I try showing him anything, he didn't even get to raccacoonie
And it's only 2 hours and 20 minutes lol. these days that's like... average

Someone get James Cameron to make a sequel called Wellington. He made superior sequels to Scott's work.

I too found Saltburn to be about a 3.5/5. I knew nothing about it going in except that I love Barry Keoghan, hadn't seen Promising Young Woman, and I basically had... an acceptable time. There were moments that I found very straightforwardly entertaining and well-crafted, but a lot of it was surprisingly bland

I think my "bland" usage may be kind of a knee-jerk reaction to the movie's emphasis on certain shocking moments. It's less that it's genuinely bland and more that it seems to pretend to be extremely out-there while... not actually being that way.

Oppenheimer - Prime said "customers also watched:" and listed Sound of Freedom. I'm trying to imagine what that venn diagram looks like, and how far they got into Oppenheimer before turning it off in disgust that there weren't any cool bombs yet
Barbenheimer marketing probably got to them and they felt they had to pick a side
