December Movies
Alright ya'll. Here comes the big month.....what movies are you going to see, and which ones will you seek out first, and why?
Little Break
Hey guys. Sorry I've been MIA. Just a lot of life things have been hitting at once. Just needed an impromptu break this week from everything going on. I apologize for the late notice. I'll get back to the new releases next week...starting with a review of Tar. Hope you guys are doing well, and staying safe.
What Interests You More?
What's your go-to for opening week?
TAR
Who has seen it? What are your thoughts?
Welles on Kazan
Ya'll seen this?
Topic Question
Name your favorite movie that takes place in a shopping mall (ex: Nocturama, Observe and Report, Jackie Brown, Chopping Mall, etc..) and why.
Closet Picks
This was a fun one.
Don't Worry Darling
Spoiler alert for those who haven't seen it. But I have a quick question for those of you who have....at what point in the film did you figure out the first big reveal/twist? Was it around the halfway point, before, or after? if at all?
Sight and Sound
Does anybody have any info on when the updated movie list will be out? I figured it would've been released by now. :/
November Movies
What films are you looking forward to next month? Let me know your recommendations. It's getting to be that hectic movie time of year.
DAHMER
Has anyone seen the netflix show out of curiosity? If so, gimme your thoughts!
DECISION TO LEAVE
I caught this one over the weekend, and while I admired a lot of aspects of it, it was a bit of a disappointment for me, compared to other works by Park Chan-wook. Though I feel his films deserve multiple viewings from me before I feel confident in a solid opinion. But while we are on the subject...what's your favorite Park Chan-wook film?
RIP Coolio
Naturally, on the way to work this morning, the first song I played in honor of Coolio was Gangsta's Paradise. Duh...it's a requirement at this point.But immediately after....you gotta go for the good shit: The "Hit 'em High" Monstars' Theme from the Space Jam soundtrack. I mean you got Coolio, Busta Rhymes, LL Cool J, all in one song!Unfortunately I've had Thrift Shop ...
Movie Survey
Which film do you plan on seeing on October 7th?
Topic Question
The month of Halloween is upon us. Name a movie that scares you the most and why.
October Movies
Month of Halloween is coming! What films are you looking forward to seeing in theaters and why?
Take Me Out to the Ball Game
I think this is one of the worst songs ever, and I will likely stand by it to my grave. What's a famous song that you hate, that's incredibly well known, and beloved? It's a tough question. For me there are so many. This one, Don't Stop Believing, Sweet Home Alabama.....gah, the list goes on and on and on. ><
Topic Question
What is your favorite movie soundtrack (not to be confused with musical score) and why?
PATHS OF GLORY
I've been wanting to review this film for a while, and I've been chipping away at a review for it sometime in the fall. What are your opinions on it, and how do you compare it with other Kubrick films?
Topic Question
What's a famous movie that you've never seen up until this point, and why?
TOP GUN MAVERICK
Would love to hear your thoughts. I've been mulling this one over the last couple of days after having watched both.
THE LAST JEDI
Revisited it recently. This will easily be the hardest review I do for Star Wars...and likely one of the hardest ever. XD
Topic Question
Name a guilty pleasure and why (remember, guilty pleasure as a word, doesn't have to be taken literally. It's more of a concept).
New Topics
Ya'll got any topics or questions you'd like answered on a future video?
September Movies
What movies are you guys looking forward to in September? I have a few floating around that I'm curious about. Let me know what I should see!
Topic Question
What movie have you seen the most, and why?
Wise Words
I respect Louis CK's intellect a lot. I really like what he says here about fame, and choosing to focus on the positives of what happened to him here. Accepting the realities of the world, and how this can benefit you, is something I wish we could hear more of. Fame and attention is really not what you think it is. We will all be humbled eventually. Best to recognize it, and be aware of it.
Topic Question
What are some of your favorite video games and why?
The Force Awakens
bruh....I just watched this one a few nights ago after a long absence. I was so prepared for a better film than the prequels this time around. Wow...it was terrible. XD Way worse than the prequels, imo. My original rankings that I posted a while back of the Star Wars films...is definitely getting switched around. Once I'm done, we will have to compare and contrast.
Dang
I used to be a waitress at a bar briefly, but then once the pandemic happened in 2020, I told my boss that I wouldn't be returning before lockdown started, and he was closing down shop temporarily anyway. Turns out he was shot and killed a few nights ago in a homicide. He was an extremely angry man, ex military trained hard-ass, and whatever happened, happened due to escalation of tensions app...
