Saw Deliver Me from Nowhere yesterday and my wife and I both really liked it. When it comes to movies in this genre,your enjoyment,I think,starts or ends with you buying into/liking the actor’s portrayal of the main character. I thought Jeremy Allan White did a really good job. I’m not the biggest Springsteen fan,but my wife is,so I needed the story to be more compelling once I settled into JAW playing Springsteen. If any of you are ever in NYC,and would like to come to Asbury Park, I’d be happy to play tour guide.

Catching up on some movies/tv while recovering from surgery….
Weapons was awesome!
Hard to describe how disappointed I was with The Substance

@Matt dude it was goodgood. Movie of the year for me. Just watched it, beautifully engaging.
Guillermo did it as it should be done . While watching, I saw so many Death Stranding winks. I hadn’t realized how much influence he had on Hideo games, but the connection became so much clearer seeing this.

@WhiskeySandwich I really enjoyed that movie as well. runtime put me off at first, but it was highly enjoyable.

LOVE “Poor Things” so went into “Bugonia” without watching a trailer (won’t watch a trailer or read up on a movie I know I’ll watch). Stone and Plemons are great in it but if I were to sum it up in one word: NUTS

Rest in peace Rob Reiner and Michelle Singer. What an unbelievable tragedy.

Think it, be it.

@flannel-slut My wife and I split on Bugonia. I liked it a lot and she hated it. Nuts is right. We shared the same split opinion about "The Substance". I thought it was crazy genius.

@flannel-slut Not sure if you've heard of the movie "Bring Her Back", but it is incredibly shocking, disturbing and brutally weird. I would never watch it again, but I'm glad i saw it once.
I also said i would NEVER recommend it to anyone, but here i am

@jordanscollected I definitely appreciated Bugonia and wasn’t one of those “wish I had those 2 hours of my life back” but a hard no on a second viewing. And a great shout out to “bring her back” totally falls in line with; very good watch/very much do not ever need to see again (the self mutilation scenes were brutal)

Awful

Watched 2 brain dead movies this snowy weekend. 1 of which was the perfect escape and the other obnoxious.
Predator Badlands = perfect escape - you more or less know what your going into with Predator but for me easily the best installment since the OG. If a fan and considering giving it a go, do it.
Running Man = obnoxious - ironically, another Swartzernagger (not going to be bothered to look up the spelling) original; irritating cast (w exception to Michael Cera) and about what you’d expect in terms of writing from a Hollywood reboot.

Red One - utter shite......My only excuse for watching it to the end (though no idea what happened, I was so distracted) was that I have had a bad dose of man flu, so was flat out on the sofa and could not be bothered to find the remote....
