@ÆRϺΔΚ Finally saw Marty Supreme tonight,and was on the edge of my proverbial seat. Just absolutely loved it,as did my wife.

[flannel slut]

found Marty Supreme very entertaining, just wasn’t ready for everyone in the film to be so unlikable

[Bridger]

@flannel-slut - just watched Marty based on your recommendation. I would never have watched a movie about table tennis otherwise. It is a hell of a ride. Not a short film, but very pacy and likeable. 3.5 stars

[Jett129]

@Bridger @flannel-slut I recommend looking up Marty Reisman who the film is inspired by. I found it to be an interesting rabbit hole to go down.

I haven’t heard a bad review about it yet. Looking forward to watching it.

On a related note, my general demeanor of crankiness makes me want to dislike Timothee Chalomet and his puckish manner but I have to remind myself that he’s a young guy on top of the world and he should be enjoying every minute of it.

I missed this when it came out. Written by Sorkin, but based on a true story.

On Netflix I believe.

[Jett129]

@Bridger I saw it when it came out,and I don't remember thinking all that highly of it,but for the life of me,couldn't tell you why. Let me know what you think. Maybe I need to rewatch it.

[Bridger]

@Jett129 if you didn't think much of it then, I suspect you won't feel differently now. Each to their own cuppa joe.

[Jett129]

@Bridger But,I really enjoy your posts and have come to respect your opinion,so therefore,if you thought highly of the movie,I might consider re-watching it.

[Matt]

I also saw it when it came out and don’t remember being blown away it. I’m a Sorkin fan.

[Matt]

Not that it was bad, just not memorable.

I’m with you,as I’m generally a Sorkin fan as well.

I watched a Korean movie called No Other Choice loved it and highly recommend it.

No Other Choice (2025)
After being fired, a man devises a unique plan to secure a new job: eliminate his competition.

@1WayTrip been trying to get the Mrs to sit down to this one this past weekend but made the mistake of telling her it’s from the writer/director of Oldboy. It’s been a hard no since but definitely giving it a go when solo

[1WayTrip]

@flannel-slut

Haha yeah I had to watch it on my own. It is good though

[Chibs]

Watched One Battle After An Other with Mrs Chibs. When we saw how long it was, we planned on watching half tonight and the other Sunday Night. That didn’t happen because it was great! It’s been a while since we’ve seen a good flick. Recommended!

+1 for “The Bluff” on prime. I’m a sucker for pirate movies and this one was great. Me and the wifey really enjoyed it.

@meatmarketdenim1

I wasn’t prepared for how finny it was going to be in places. So good.
