I had no idea how exploitative it was going to be and was really surprised at how much talent went into making a movie about that kind of subject matter. Wow. definitely check out the sequels, especially the second one

Amazing series even if the subject manner does make it hard to recommend in polite company. Pure cinema but also absolute sleaze.

I wasn't even aware of City Hunter's source material, nor the Jackie Chan film, but I thoroughly enjoyed the new film on Netflix. It definitely has pacing issues towards the end and it is quite unsuccessful mixing the serious with comedy, but it was definitely a fun roller coaster. The film left me almost exhausted how fast it was going. And honestly I even enjoyed bunch of the cinematography, especially in the beginning, even if it was largely aided by CGI. But the film definitely left me grinning a lot of the time. Even choreography was pretty decent even if aided with rapid cuts, bunch of it felt how the Cowboy Bebop adaptation should have been to a degree. Oh and the original theme definitely slaps.

RUN, don't walk to see Challengers, it hits the back of the net with a slam dunk of a film. Luca Guagdanino has really scored a hat trick with his latest heavyweight of a movie.

I watched Singing Guns and VHS Massacre Singing Guns has almost no singing. There's like three songs, all by the one guy. And he has a weird gimmick voice. The rest of the movie is fine, it's it's generic Western way. I did enjoy that this small podunk wild west town has exactly one woman in it, and she just happens to be the most glamorous woman in the world. There's like three buildings, but this lady apparently has a closet full of sheer bejewled gowns. And she's not even a hooker, she's like the sheriff's girlfriend. Where does she get these things? VHS Massacre was disappointing. It purports to be a documentary about the rise and fall of VHS, but it's really not. they talk a bit about VHS shops with people who have interesting things to say, mostly Lloyd Kaufmann, but the bulk of the movie is just this guy and his friend kinda loving around. They fuckin run out of stock photos of old VHS shops really early on too, they just keep showing the same photos again and again. The whole thing is structured very poorly. Way too much runtime is dedicated to the fact that they did a lovely version of Red Letter Media's Wheel of the Worst once on their podcast. Can't recommend.

Saw Challengers yesterday too, it's fantastic. It's also nice to see the return of movies that are just deeply, deeply horny for every actor involved. It feels like the whole concept time travelled here from 1996, in the best way possible.

Challengers is a mainstream movie that’s both smart AND sexy. It’s been way too long.

While reading through Hiroyuki Sanada's wiki page, I discovered that he acted in a 2018 movie called "The catcher was a spy", a film I have never heard of. These are the people that were cast with him. Paul Rudd Mark Strong Sienna Miller Jeff Daniels Tom Wilkinson Giancarlo Giannini Guy Pearce Ben Miles Paul Giamatti Connie Nielsen Shea Whigham That's a wild loving cast, has anyone seen this? It was a total flop, I guess it's bad or boring or both. It was scored by Howard Shore, like wtf?

Gaius Marius posted:I don't think Zoë Kravitz has. Or Melissa Sturm. So it’s a double-sided curse; if you play live action Mary-Jane you will play a tennis player in the future, if you play animated Mary-Jane you will never play a tennis player.

distortion park posted:Just saw Challengers, it's good. Final 5 minutes is top tier. Oh yeah, I thought the final two set pieces were amazing. I could hear people in the theatre audibly groaning and getting confused / frustrated, but I sense that they were there for the threesome scene* since the audience perked up there and then seemingly deflated after, and occasionally jeered at the film. Not a great crowd. I thought it was a great loving film though. *the entire film is basically nothing but threesome scenes, metaphorically, but you know the one I mean. distortion park posted:I don't think the two guys eating each others churros was an accident! It's all over this film in particular, and there's a bit of it in the HBO miniseries he did. Plus the erotic cannibalism film he did and a few other things.
