I'm Thinking Of Ending Things is interesting but my least fav Charlie Kaufman movie.
watching this documentary about Jeffrey Epstein on Netflix... why do I watch things like this. It ultimately just is depressing and awful, and I don't "need to be convinced." This is so terrible.
The War With Grandpa - not as bad as it could have been, actually... it was nice, 6/10. :-)
just finished Midsommar and I'm blown away. I actually was really underwhelmed by Hereditary, so I put off seeing this. Now I guess I'm gonna buy the director's cut. Wow, that was crazy. Great movie.
Devil All The Time is pretty good. Southern Hillbilly Gothic starring 2 English Men and Swede.
Out on Netflix.
Although she is isn't a big part of the story I was really into Kristin Griffith who played the character of Emma. I checked her body of work and it's almost all minor TV work. Someone should put her into more things. Jason Clark was born to play an intimidating creep. I have a secret crush on Riley Keough. I'm not huge on narration but the author whose book this is based on lent his voice... so that makes it a bit more ok.
Challenger: The Final Flight

Once again (as with Chernobyl, or 9/11...), they knew something terrible is likely to happen. :-(
(Edit: discussed also in the Netflix thread.)

I can't get enough of Raised By Wolves!
Weird as hell premise, 70's sci-fi aesthetics with religious horror vibes. False shepherds, wolves in sheep's clothing and opposing belief structures. Lovely cinematography and score. No idea how someone could give up on this show so easily besides it being a bit of a slow burn for things to move along. It's a very captivating show with a lot of cryptic shit going on.
I May Destroy You on HBO. Fucking brilliant, start to finish.
The Comey Rule
Reminded me of early House of Cards, or The Looming Tower, and it's good thing that all of this is fiction, because... wait...
(I'm sure this had to be mentioned somewhere around already but couldn't find)

Edit: Also, this one was pretty original. :-)

that still for the Comey movie is like a troll version of Trump. like all it needs is a damn wart on the nose and some slightly-more pointy ears and maybe a different shade of skin and it's a troll.
Who watches the Watchmen?
Well, I certainly do and it's great!
i finished both seasons of dead to me a few weeks ago. the writing is really great. i love the reveals they do of the plot lines.

Continuing my Ryan Gosling trek
That is such a good exactly-what-it-is movie. Did you watch the trailer and laugh uproariously? Then you'll love the movie.
My wife, upon finishing the movie, said "yeah, that's exactly the type of movie you like" which I'm still not sure if it's a compliment or denigration, nor do I know if it's directed at me or the movie. Or both? But it's great.
Finally finished watching S1 of High Fidelity; in general I enjoyed it. I dig the vibe of it, I liked the performances and really liked the way it wrapped up.
@Space Suicide i saw that movie in the theater in 2008 (i was 21 at the time) and proceeded to sleep with the lights on for an entire week because i was so terrified.
Started watching American Horror Story a few weeks ago and we're on season 3.
Why is there so much smoking on this show? Jesus fucking christ how much did phillip morris pay this show for all that product placement?
