Black Bag was very good. It made me think how great it would be if Pierce joined Slow Horses

[Besticus Maximus]

That naked gun trailer is worse than anything Nepenthe ever posted

Speaking of fly-strewn dogshit, watched the Monkey last night. Now I've read me a lot of stephen king so I knew broadly what was supposed to be coming, but what I got...jesus christ it was bad. Not even so bad it's good, so bad we both fell asleep.

I’ve never seen the proper X-men origins Wolverine but I’ve watched the leaked unfinished version a couple times. Great fun to pull up the old .avi file from like 2009.

reminds me of when keith david and rowdy roddy piper reunited and it was just like 20 minutes of them punching each other because keith david didnt want to wear sunglasses

Speaking of The Thing, I was 12 years old when that came out and I think I watched it on HBO a couple years later. I was way too young to watch that by myself and it freaked me out. David Lynch's Eraserhead was another movie that I watched that disturbed me a lot.

Eraserhead was a strange one for me because I didn't understand it and that baby was creepy as hell. For a long time if anyone asked me what the scariest movie I ever saw was I would have said Eraserhead. 

I'm curious to know what movies people saw that they were too young too watch or any movie you found scary or disturbing. My ex wife had to take a break while watching Session 9. We made it all the way through but she said it was getting too intense and needed a little breather. 

[Polident]

Not the most reassuring talent behind it, but the soundtrack will be cool.

Probably all the old horror movies. Poltergeist, Nightmare on Elm Street and stuff. Although, the Vietnam war films probably were worse than any of those being they were reality rather than fantasy.

[Besticus Maximus]

The most recent movie to completely fuck me up was Bones and All. I walked out of the cinema with serious worries about humanity.

Thought the Dark and the Wicked was also quite scary in a world where things aren't very scary no more.

Shout out for Beau is Afraid too, which is sort of the most terrifying thing imaginable and built on dread and anxiety but in a completely different way

[Nintex]

Watched The Dial of Destiny this weekend and...

Well it wasn't that bad of an Indiana Jones movie. I've now watched them all back to back.

Harrison Ford is old but the digital deaging is 'ok' enough for a little WW2 Indy fun and in the present time scenes he does fine for his age.
Phoebe is a bit obnoxious but not that obnoxious and often times she actually does get into trouble and needs help from Indy.

Some of the lines that people complained about, well they make sort of sense in the context of the film. Mads also does a good job as the villain, as he usually does.
You can see references and cues from the previous movies in various scene. From Indy riding a horse to Teddy, who is clearly a nod to the kid that helped Indy in Temple of Doom.

There's is stuff missing though, no romance. Phoebe oggles and winks at men but nothing ever happens like it did with Indy and his flings.
Also too many chase scenes.

My final ranking is probably this. I have a soft spot for Temple of Doom because of how campy it is but rewatching them all has put The Last Crusade ahead of it. 

The Last Crusade > Temple of Doom > Indiana Jones > Dial of Destiny / Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
 
Kingdom of the Crystal also not a bad film in my book certain action scenes are just way drawn out. I believe it was a 3D film so it has those "this looked cool in 3D" scenes too.
What still strikes me as odd in this franchise is that if Indy had done nothing the outcome would've been the same the exception being Temple of Doom.

But yeah if you like Indiana Jones and you're on the fence about Dial of Destiny, it's not that bad of a movie.

[Potato]

Raiders is the only 5* Indy movie. Last Crusade is 4* and the rest are pretty trash. Haven't watched the latest one. Don't want another part of my childhood destroyed.

[Eric Cartman]

Kingdom of the Crystal also not a bad film in my book

[Polident]

Hell yeah

[chronovore]

1. Raiders is god-tier, despite the "indy doesn't really affect anything" argument. It's a fucking great film with amazing writing. 
   
2. Temple of Doom is better after I recognized they're going further into the pulp adventure territory, with (now problematic) depictions of ORIENTALISM writ large. But audiences wanted more nazi-punching, so:
   
3. Last Crusade features more nazi-punching, and it's awesome. It also has a fantastic message about obsession versus self-care. RIP River Phoenix. 
   
4. Crystal Skull was dumb. Also, WTF it looked a LOT like they were trying to shoehorn a passing-of-the-torch to Shia Labeouf, and NOBODY thinks of him as capable of filling Harrison Ford's fucking galoshes. WTAF?  
   
5. Dial of Destiny was meant to be a nice send-off for Indy but crawled up its own ass with delicately composing everything in CG and having videogame lighting… It wasn't bad, but it doesn't hold a candle to Raiders or Crusade.

This reminds me:
The new Jake Gyllenhall Road House movie is really good!

[HaughtyFrank]

What happened with Gladiator 2, didn't like that at all. Paul Mescal was like a charisma void

What's left at this point?

I finally watched Passion of the Christ and I was very distracted by the Satan in the movie.

Like...he/she is lurkin' around being like "hee hee...yessss Jesus is getting fucked up, yesss...I am SO eeeevill yesss"

and then Jesus dies and satan is like "aw fuck, that's actually the worst thing that could've happened!!"

Christians can correct me here, but Satan acts believing they’re manipulating and corrupting events and people around them. See the demonic baby and children. But ultimately, unintentionally, acted as a pawn in God’s plan. 

To use another religious movie as reference, it’s like when Neo lets himself get beaten by Smith in Matrix 3 because it’s the will of the machine gods. And in Passion of the Christ 2, Jesus becomes a video game developer and tries jumping off a building after winning GOTY at the Game Awards.

Michael Bay, Sydney Sweeney Jump-Start ‘OutRun’ Movie Based on Racing Video Game

[Snoopy]

The first time I tried to watch Tar I switched off after 20 minutes. I decided to give it another shot thinking maybe I just wasn’t in the mood the first time. It starts off with an extended interview, then a lunch scene, followed by a class scene. That’s a lot of dialogue. On top of that it’s filled with references to artists and musical terms only insiders would know. This time I stuck with it and it was worth it. Cate Blanchett is pretty fucking incredible. I thought she was great in Blue Jasmine, but she’s hitting Daniel Day Lewis levels here. I 100% believed she was a composer.

[Rendle]

@5:21 when the crowd is chanting "kiss" one of the extras starts chanting "head". God I love extras

[chronovore]

What's left at this point?

Well, at least one good thing has come from the otherwise wretched anti-woke/anti-DEI crowd. Those live action films were a fucking pox on the world.

He turned 79 yesterday.

I thought I had seen some weird movies till I saw Pink Flamingos. That was one of thoses films that shook me.

Shout out to a real one, John Waters.


Edit:
I want to quote what he said at the end

We were so stupid to make the enemy feel stupid we should have made them feel smart, make them laugh and then have sex with them and change their mind.

A bad version of Demon Knight with Billy Zane

Black bag was great. I like a movie that makes you feel smart
