Anyone *seen* any good films... lately???

Enjoyed the by (now older) new Dredd. Bit gritty. Sucks it didn't make enough money for a sequel.

Dredd was actually very fucking good. So have the last what 3(?) Batman movies. None of these characters were supposed to be the Hollywood camp shit that their respective movies in the 90s were.


Same goes with Craig and the Bond flicks. Bond getting fucked up and hurt was amazing story telling, and a complete departure from the narrative. Made him more human.

Fury Road wasn't as bad as well. Despite all the herp derp from the MGTOW crowd about feminism, still took Max to save the day.

Rake: not very subtle, not very funny but still entertaining

Okay, I spoke too soon, the dog fucker episode was hilarious.

Torrent crapped out on me for get out, heard it was good, maybe later.

3 episodes in, liked the last one best (haunted house)

Lovecraft Stories, scene of the white dude getting sodomised with a shoe is kind of on the nose but great skin-shifting visuals, I like that character btw. Maybe it's a slow burn, hope it isn't a mystery box, I can def see big nose guy reading in the dark room/cellar turning into a scholar of the dark arts (Lovecraft staple). Pale skin blue-eyed dandy/sorceress is the type of gender fluidity I could get behind ;-)
Hope this is my old pervy self speaking, not the wokeness finally getting through to me by being beamed into my eyeballs by those damned social justice mages...

In Lovecraft Country, during the shoe scene...I was in a room filled with black women and I was wincing and they were laughing.

Very post-modern.
Didn't enjoy series as a whole, swing and a miss IMO.

Most of the movie stuff will get streamed from now on I guess. Doesn't change much for yo-ho-ho me.

Enjoyed Color out of Space.
