Split Second 1992 sci-fi with Rutger Hauer The movie shouldn't work, the mystery is really meh and the killer looks absolutely terrible. At no point did I feel compelled to follow along with the plot or feel like anything matters. The setting being global-warming ruined London is a cool idea, with almost all the sets being knee-high in water is also cool but aside from window dressing nothing really gets done with it. It feels like it wants to be a horror-thriller, but then everyone plays their characters so seriously while saying the most ludicrous poo poo that it loops around into a edgy funny buddy-cop comedy instead. It feels like a parody at times. Rutger Hauer being the edgiest of cops out for revenge while delivering lines like "Lucifer is in some deep poo poo now." while binging cigars and chocolates is just great.

Smithereens (1982) - Not really my type of movie, felt like it stretched itself very thin at times. But it was an interesting look at 80s NY, narcisstic people and just how loving sexy Richard Hell was in those days.

Shrimp, short film directed by Zelda Williams. Though its more of a pilot for a TV show it feels like. The characters seem down to earth and interesting, obviously a little too short to sink your teeth into but a fun little watch. Reminded me of the stories my friends, who work in the BDSM clubs and events, tell me.

Poor Things - Been a while since I enjoyed a movie like this. Just sucked me right in from start to finish.

Ex Drummer - Movie about vile losers getting together to form a punk band so they can enter a competition. Definitely one of the darkest, most nihilistic movies I've seen in a while. Every character is some kind of terrible human being, ranging from negligent junkie to neo-nazi mysogist, and they all do terrible poo poo to each other. The soundtrack is loving awesome, though. It was a good watch and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

ShoogaSlim posted:i watched berserk last year and really liked it. i've heard that neon genesis evangelion is another all time great anime series, but i started watching it on netflix and it feels like a weird melodramatic horny slog lol. The thing with Eva is that all the philosophical and deeper poo poo starts happening around the halfway point of the series. Before that there are tiny glimpses of it, but nothing more.

ShoogaSlim posted:it feels like 96% of all anime deals with high school kids realizing being a human being is weird. why? i don't understand the obsession Because at the end of the day, the target demographic for most anime are (high school) kids and this stuff has a higher chance of appealing to them.

Out!(2023): Decent adaption of a deliquent manga that unfortunately does suffer from the usual manga-adapted-to-the-big-screen problems. Feels way too long, a lot of time is spent on characters just standing and talking and not doing much. But when they're not doing that, the movie has a nice flow to it. The characters and actors are charming and have very good chemistry, the action scenes are messy and chaotic but not so much that you don't know what's happening. Also the actor playing Tanzawa Atsushi nails his personality of being a fun little goofball and a violence obsessed psycho. Also some of the dialogue is hilariously stupid.
