@Seul:

The truly intruiging thing to me in that documentary is how Zündel basically denies the gaschambers/ holocaust because he doesn't want his mother country, German, to be seen as a place where such a genocide could've taken place… So is it his sense of guilt that forces him to go into a state of denial, or is he just using that cause admitting to being a neo nazi, anti-semite bastard is slightly less comfortable to admit to...

I swear I'll stop going OT right here, but there's an important book that gets into the mindset of German Nazi party supporters during that period. Denial, cognitive dissonance, and other delusions are still well with us and the book is hauntingly familiar today.

INCREDIBLES 2 - legit good Pixar flick right there…

I liked the first one better. Still, I agree it's good.

Everything in my being wants to watch 'mid 90s' my general world view is that everything culturally and musically has been a reinvention of what came before that year. It's just I personally cannot stand Jonah Hill. That said it may be different with him behind the camera.

We watched 'Mandy' last week. Bonkers is about the only word I can summon up to describe it. I can't say it was amazing, awful, or average. I've not really seen anything like it. Nicholas Cage does his thing x 1000 too.

@Jett129 oh, no doubt he seems a good guy, just never seem a film that he's made that's been my thing.

It's gettin' there!  We actually did our first Love Actually viewing already, even before Hallowe'en was done and dusted!

while we're catching steam, I'm going to have to say Elf as well. My age is showing.

[nurunuru]

Oh yeah, that's a great one. And Home Alone, of course. And The Snowman, with its lovely intro by Bowie in his short-lived 'nice cardie and a scarf' phase.

TIS THE SEASON

TO SHUT YOUR PIEHOLE

[Stuart.T]

I watched a couple of trailers for mid-90s…anyone remember the film 'kids'?...used actual skater kids from Washington Square Park in NYC. When I used to visit a friend who lived in the village you'd see them skating in the park. Mid-90s looks like kids' little brother.

[spitfiredealer]

I thought the same thing. Looks like a newer version of Kids.

Still hyped to see it though. That was my era,
Skated everyday and have so many great memories from that time.

I just saw The Grinch - it was great!  Eat your hearts out @Seul and @Giles - Cumberbatch was good, but either of you could have done SO much better

Now he'll need to do the prequel and call it Mid80's which was my era, clunky skateboards and all

Watched "Rush" (1991) again. Great soundtrack thanks to Clapton, and it was fun seeing Gregg Allman as a drug kingpin. Solid flick.
