avengers was 100% unadulterated horse shite

Rewatched The Master last night and i think it's the most rewarding second viewing I've had of any film. Watching the characters rather than worrying about anything else that's going on. It's funny, engrossing, sad and profound. Just don't want to be reminded of that many hairy bushes again though. They looked like the pelts from The Revenant.

Hairy bushes are a beautiful thing.

[dr lopez]

[Milwaukeeeee]

"The Visit", great acting by the granny. Entertaining and funny film overall, one of the best from Shyamalan in my opinion

[Silent Member]

One of my all-time favs, gotta watch that again soon. I've got the soundtrack on CD with a set of other Tarkovsky scores, great stuff.

Green Inferno was disappointing, thought it was going to be about cannabis not cannibals

i was also disappointed. i thought it was going to be about the first weeks of Hell, like when it just opened and all kinds of stuff is going all wrong and lucifer is just learning the ropes.

[usagi]

I thought it was a fucking superhero movie this whole time.

Watched a load of 80s films on YouTube over the weekend. Couldn't stop.

 

Deadly Intentions - 1985 TV film with Michael Biehn in fine form. Biehn was kicking ass in the 80s. This was unintentionally very funny just as Biehn plays a complete a-hole. It reminded me of those real life comic books autobiographical Clowes, Pekar, Matt etc

Final Approach - carrying on my obsession with the female lead I watched this film from 1991, imaging at the end of 2001 a space odyssey the main character Dave being interrogated after his ascension into the abyss. Unbelievable I haven't seen this before.

Dream Lover - this was so good in a dream like american goes to London and loses her marbles way. If you like Altered States, Dreamscape, Paperhouse and other dream sequence films go get your fix. From 1986.

The Borrower - John McNaughton's follow up to Henry Portrait of a Serial Killer. Great prosthetic explosions as the main character is an Alien that likes to rip people's heads off. Had possibly one of the sadist sex scenes of all time off camera when the criminal tries to escape. Brilliant use of sound in this though.

The Silence - recent German film - nothing original about this at all - was like an assembled mish mash of every other crime thriller made. Reminded me of a time when I cycled through Germany though and the countryside really stands out. Rural Germany chlorophyll to turn your eyes green.

Also found that the YouTube plugin on Kodi let's you upgrade the video to the highest quality, the playback seems slightly better than in browser.

Utter shite. "Men in Black" meets the Further, ridiculous Jeff Bridges performance..BARF!

Runaway, you may remember this silly 80s sci-fi with Tom Selleck, Kirstie Alley, and none other than Gene Simmons as the villain. This was the first time I watched it as an adult and the first time I noticed that the whole premise of the movie (and even parts of the soundtrack) are like someone played a game of Chinese whispers with Blade Runner as the message. And no matter how stupid the film and plot are, its boxy piece of crap robots were actually a surprisingly accurate vision of the future. Think robot mowers, drones, and self-driving cars instead of Blade Runner's androids.
