I saved this post to remind myself I need to catch up on some “real” movies. Only one on this list I’ve seen is “Nomadland”. Really want to see Anora. I loved Baker’s movie “The Florida Project”

Wild. I’ve seen exactly two of those, Parasite (which I think @Matt would enjoy) and Oppenheimer. I enjoyed both of them immensely. I’m sure I’d enjoy a couple more from that list. Maybe one day…

@jordanscollected agreed, it is a good film.
The bad guy in it, is also in the original Old boy which is also a good film. Josh Brolin played his part in the remake.

Changed tonight's program to commemorate the great Gene Hackman.

@endo now we are talking

Best films of the past 5 or so years that first come to mind for me would be “three billboards, jojo rabbit, and poor things”. “dune” is shaping up to be to a masterpiece but this is known.

The whole family loved this. Won the academy award for animated film. Really cool…no dialogue, beautiful animation. Stuck with us.

@SKT want to see that one. Speaking of animation, we loved Wild Robot. Heartwarming tale.

[SKT]

@mclaincausey oh man we are big fans of Wild Robot. We all read the book and saw the movie in the theater. I think you will love Flow too

[Matt]

@mclaincausey I read the books to Imogene when she as little. We loved them.

[mclaincausey]

@SKT and @Matt we will grab the book! Bluey is everything btw Matt.

Bluey is the best show for moms and dads out there. And dogs since it’s made with colors that dogs can see.

Just completed Heretic on a flight. I’ll give it a B.

Parasite is a great movie.
I can add two more great Korean movies - Memories of murder (same director as Parasite) and Train to Busan (one of the best zombie movies for me).

yes!

@mclaincausey I did love Heretic, but agree... a B!

Watched Longlegs over the weekend.. Incredibly well shot, had a Shining/Misery feel to it. Still a little bemused overall about it..

Since we're talking Bong Joon-Ho movies, who's excited for 'Mickey 17'?

Hopefully going this weekend but excited to hear opinions as im currently about two thirds of the way through the book.

@Bailey this is high on my list. I love psychological thrillers. Still recommend?
