You’re a bigger (no pun intended) for rating Wicked that
high, but again one of the few movies I don’t like is
Wizard of Oz.

No musical hating, btw

you mean The Wiz?

i guess i'd recommend to you and your misses The Wild Robot.
it's good for kids (also very honest on the brutality of
nature) and for parents

i have to +1 that one as well, i see, to 9

+ La corona di ferro (aka The Iron Crown), 1941 - enjoyable and nicely shot, 8

+ I vampiri (aka Lust of the Vampire), 1957 - more mad scientist in a castle
being investigated by the local journalist than a vampire
film, but enjoyable, 7

+ 巨神兵東京に現わる (aka Giant God Warrior Appear... - Japanese short which essentially
is just a CGI giant god warrior appearing in Tokyo and
causing ruination, 7

+ 西荻窪駅徒歩20分2LDK敷礼2ヶ月ペット不可 (... - a fun animated short wherein a
young woman wakes up to discover she's a cockroach, and
attempts to let her boyfriend know, who then chases her
(believing it's a cockroach) around their apartment.
Inventively animated, 8

+ Pyschogenic Fugue, 2016 - John Malkovitch portrays David
Lynch and several iconic Lynch characters in this short film
made especially for the David Lynch Foundation, 7½

+ Girls at 12, 1975 - short documentary by Joyce Chopra,
which follows a small group of girls in the mid 70s as they
discuss life, boys and their discovery of gender inequality,
8

+ Wonka, 2023 - very uninspired songs, a plotline
that seemed so pointless, but the charm of the actors worked
and even as I knew shameless audience manipulation was going
on, I shed a tear a end, 7

+ What Happens Later, 2023 - Meg Ryan directs herself opposite
David Duchovny in this two-hander; at a small airport during
a storm delay, two people who shared a major relationship
during and after college bump into one another and play out
the usual analyses, hurt, reconciliation, understanding,
etc, 7

+ Nutcrackers, 2024 - A gem of a film, a well-worn plot
that is elevated by the cast, the setting, and the natural
offbeat naturalism of it all. Really enjoyed it, 8

+ Drive-Away Dolls - Hilarious and the nods to Henry
James actually make complete sense; like Nutcrackers
it had a mainly negative reception - both films have
plotlinles that on paper are very old hat, but in both cases
it is the characters and the individual situations and
flourishes which elevate them, 8

+ The Apprentice, 2024 - Sebastian Stan and Jeremy Strong
are fantastic, both inhabit their roles impeccably, like a
Sith Lord and his apprentice. The choice of filmstock and
techniques that recall the periods in which the film is set
(early 1970s to late 1980s) are most effective, a
fascinating and singular film, 8

Red Sparrow 6/10, maybe 7/10, just not big on the genre

Conclave 10/10 (i guess it's a more of a traditional movie,
fwiw)

in bruges 10 (i actually just went to bruges, it's like
that, only now busier, something they mention in the movie,
saying: it's not too busy because it's too far away for
brits. so that changed)

holdover 9. it's really great and heartfelt. breakfast club
with more real people or something

Shogun (TV mini-series 1980) 4/5 because I haven't
re-watched the whole show, the grade might only go higher

Die Hard (1988) 4/5 or even 3.5/5 because why didn't
he...when he could....but it's an xmas dumbing down movie,
so....the sober you get while watching the dumber it looks.

Alien 5/5 just started rewatching, brb

I genuinely want to see "Queer" starring Daniel Craig. I
like Daniel Craig and I like to see him happy acting and not
doing Bond through gritted teeth.

And I like Gay films.

Daniel Craig is cool
Queer reviews all look like trash
No homophobia, I don’t care who or what you butt with
The film just doesn’t look good at all

Now if Mr. Wilco was doing gay stuff in it I’m sure it
would raise the rotten tomatoes rating

children of men 10 (hadn't seen it, confused it with
something else till recently)
paul (the alien movie) 4
the untouchables 10 (maybe skewed with some nostalgia)
tropic thunder 10 (maybe i'm over rating)
galaxy quest 9 (maybr i'm under rating)

landman 9 (it's not deep or whatever)

Nosferatu struck the right balance of homage and innovation,
and creepier than I expected
