I will say it every time : the Ang Lee Sense and Sensibility is one of the most beautiful movies ever made and your mom should watch that.

Can anybody recommend any horror movies for kids 12 years old? They don't have to be particularly good. We've watched Brahms the Boy II which was awful but they enjoyed it. I was gonna say nothing with too much blood and gore but remembered we watched 30 Days of Night recently and they loved it. Monster or ghost or killer doll movies would be ideal.

How's the kid feel about goop and cartoonish gore? Any aversion to "old" movies?

From Onomarchus's childhood: X: The Man with the X-ray Eyes (I mainly remember the ending, and if you're young enough you just try and forget it) The Fly (er, I meant the first but you can try Cronenberg films if you think they can handle it. If.) I'm not sure I even saw The Pit and the Pendulum, the memories are so dim, but a child's horror exposure should include Vincent Price, and that one's another Roger Corman too.

Shoot, forgot Gremlins, Little Shop of Horrors (1986), and Gremlins 2, for a slight change of pace.

I just watched Hotel Artemis which was a pleasant surprise and a sneakily stacked cast. Any recommendations for recent well made/sufficiently budgeted sci-fi that might have slid under the radar?

Not a huge budget, but they wrote to fit what they had. Really well done, knocked my socks off. It’s older, I know, but it flew waaaay under the radar even back then. Just chilling on Tubi too.

A smorgasbord of funny people doing awful things to each other. The cast : Rob Cordry, Adam Scott, Zach Gallifanakis, Bob Odenkirk, Ellen Barkin, Maggie Q, Tim Bagley, Emile De Ravin (Claire from LOST y'all), Jeffrey Tambor and goddamn Ving Rhames. it's also a solid flick wherein a super secret assassin's guild start killing each other after the death of their leader, leading to some really brutal moments of interoffice politics gone awry.

Heads up, this movie loving sucks. Easily the worst movie I saw this year. Despite the cast there is not a single decent joke in the whole thing. Absolute dogshit.

Dr. Yinz Ljubljana posted:noted, anyone who wants to see it, be warned it's apparently not for everyone It's the first movie I've seen in a long time that was so bad I actually got angry at how bad it was. Like, Ving Rhames plays a character called Judgement, and he always tries to work the words "judgement" or "judge" into everything he says. We know he does this because Rob Cordry says he does it during the character introductions. We are told he says judgement before he ever does, and then in the course of the movie he only does it like two or three times. Other characters talk about Judgement saying judgement significantly more often than he actually says it. They had an idea for a joke but instead of actually writing the joke into the script, they just have characters explain the concept of the joke as if that is as good as actually doing the joke. It's loving terrible. Goddamnit!

Timecrimes is legit quite solid. Just a cute little time travel movie that’s actually well written for a change. I think it’d be better known if it weren’t for that awful title. Los cronocrimenes sounds way cooler.
