Dungeons and Dragons also has a lot of really fun practical effects if you're that kind of freak like I am. Let's put tall people in weird creature suits again.

If you liked the D&D movie I cannot recommend Game Night (the directors' previous film) enough. The D&D movie is them being as funny as they can within an IP straitjacket.

On the list.

Having never seen the cartoon, I noticed and was tickled by those costumes because I assumed it was a nod to larpers or those people throwing tennis fire balls at each other in the woods inspired by dnd. In general tho it felt like the movie acknowledging the inspiration's dorkiness and allowing it to just "be" instead of having someone quip at how dumb their outfit looks.

Yeah, I liked that the reference was just allowed to exist and they didn't really point too much at it.

Yeah, Green Knight was pretty fuckin' neat. Made its way to the list of movies I want to watch in 4K once I get a device capable of such.

Anyway, I was deciding what to take out from the library next, and I saw that Crouching Tiger was available, so I'll pick that up when I drop off Green Knight tomorrow, and I also put House of Flying Daggers and Police Story 1/2 on hold from other libraries because hey, why not get into a whole wuxia/HK cinema mood for a bit?

Silence is one of the two Scorceses I've seen and it owns, and it's very funny that it came out like only a year and a half after I read the book for a college course. Book is also good.

Sometimes I get upset with how much Disney has bungled the Muppets. We should be getting a fun, charming, low-key, serviceable Disney+ Muppet movie once a year which parodies some genre or adapts and old book or whatever. It's really not hard.

Robert Pattisson isn't in anything that's officially planned to come out in the next few years it seems and that makes me not super happy.

My favourite story of his which I admit he may well have made up but it's funny regardless was that he had a stalker while filming in Europe and after getting both bored doing nothing and frustrated with avoiding her he asked like 'Look, if you agree to get patted down by security and I take you wherever you want to go for dinner will that satisfy you long enough to give me some space?' And then they went and she never contacted him again because well stars are actually boring most of the time.

He was gonna be in the next Bong Joon-ho joint but that seems to have evaporated

I haven't seen it in probably fifteen years, but I remember is as good, and the early scene of the two heroes in full coats and hats as very visually striking.

i rewatched brotherhood of the wolf like 3 weeks ago after finding a 4k bluray at my local video store.

hadn't seen it since i was a teenager and forgot basically 99% of anything that actually happens.

it was fun and you can tell the crew really cared about what they were making, so it's admirable from that perspective. but overall it's kinda goofy and too long.

the aesthetics are on point tho

I also think there could have been a couple more scenes of the Beast attacking people, give it a bit more horror

I've never read the book. I recently saw Part 1 in IMAX when it was put back in theaters for a few weeks. Majority of the film, I had zero clue what was going on. It didn't help that the dialogue was often nearly inaudible, but then again, I sometimes have auditory processing issues when there are a bunch of conflicting loud noises. Regardless, I thought the film was great. I've seen complaints of "Oh they didn't explain <x>" but gently caress it, it wasn't necessary for my enjoyment and going into a long explanations of aspects of the novels would have just weighed it down.

DUNC Part 1 is more about vibes than anything else. And the vibes were immaculate.

The first movie felt like mostly setup, which makes sense considering it's the first half of a one book
