Have you seen the director’s latest film? It’s like Saw with ballet.

1. I mean it's just cheating that Blues Brothers exists. James Brown killing it and Rawhide are probably my favorites, but I mean come on.....

2. Miles singing along with Sunflower just did such a wonderful job of setting the tone for Spiderverse.

3. Puttin on the Ritz from Young Frankenstein.

4. Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.

5. I am a Man of Constant Sorrow.

When you have a family member permanently crippled by long covid - as I do - then perhaps you will finally understand.

Everyone always feels immortal and invulnerable until reality finally hits them hard.

I grieve for the lesson you will one day, inevitably, learn.

Arlington Road

Since we're talking posts as well, I'll nominate that thing people do where there are already active posts on a topic, but they'll pretend they didn't see them and start another about the exact same thing... presumably because they see the subject is getting a lot of engagement and want to reposition it with themselves as the center of attention.

On a case-by-case basis I can't prove that's what any given individual is doing, but it happens way too often and sometimes it's such an out-of-the-blue topic that I have a hard time believing the 2nd guy thought of it independently without having seen the other post. Plus you can often tell it's about them getting attention because they're usually some thread-sitting mfers lol

I think it helped that Chandon was a stock broker on Wall Street while writing the flick (or was before he wrote it, can’t remember). It adds an authenticity to how they talk, like how every one of the bosses doesn’t understand the technical shit hahaha

I don't know about edibles, but Barry Lyndon (1975) is the most visually beautiful movie I've ever seen, and it has amazing music.

Good luck in your hunt!

5. Singin' in the Rain

6. Let's Go Fly a Kite- Mary Poppins

7. Do you hear the People Sing?

8. In the Navy- Andrews Sisters musical war film

9. French National Anthem- Casablanca

MCJ feels a lot like an unironic circle jerk lately.

They mentioned that they're not only there for a single resource anymore. That was the reference to unobtainium.

Ahh yes, the variant of, "anyone else....?" Only to pose a very common opinion or question.

It was definitely too long, but that kinda helped with the immersion I think. It’s a movie to get lost in y’know?

I'm in the camp of "The Lost World came out when I was, like, 7 and I love it for nostalgia reasons". For the most part I can totally look past the faults in the T-Rex in San Diego sequence. But I agree with your assessment here, especially the parts about adding Van Owen and Roland to the sequence and how that could've made it so much better. Never really thought about it like that.

Edit: And I absolutely hate thinking about what the hell happened on the boat. It makes no sense. I pretty much have to ignore it when watching.

That's what I thought. They are totally on par with each other and I figured the same people who like one would like the other. Neck and Neck.

I really get this feeling sometime too, it's pitiful.

Yeah but I had a craving for French Fries and I don’t like the way James Cameron cooks meat so it worked for me XD

There’s another Denzel movie called Out of Time that’s a similar vibe to those other ones (although not as good). And if you haven’t seen The Equalizer movies with him, I think you’d like them. There’s a couple Harrison Ford movies from the 90s that are great, Clear & Present Danger, Patriot Games, and Air Force One. White House Down. Lucky Number Slevin. Broken Arrow. The Rock. Those are all I can think of off the top of my head.

In The Cut

Cool. No judging. Just was wondering since you very much liked the movie and didn’t know the Becky reference. Figured you were younger.

I used to keep opening night tickets and put them with the DVD/blueray when I bought the home release.

I’ll always remember being in 4th grade and having my first critical thought of a movie: just a simple, “this is a bit much” when the T-Rex got loose in the city.

I second that, it’s way over used and takes away from so many scenes that could have had so much more impact if it were taken seriously instead, I’m all for humor, but use it wisely. Don’t make light of every single scene.
