Also, if you have a spare 50 minutes, here’s a great doco about Gray, Glasgow, and Poor Things.

You get the feeling there are some mixed feeling about the film back home - glad to see his work getting tackled, but sad that a book that has so much about Glasgow in it has the city completely erased.

 
Youngest wanted to watch this after listening to the soundtrack. I enjoy this movie way too much. Unlike the wife and daughter, I enjoyed the ending. And to drop Guy Patterson in there as a cameo makes it extra special.

Columbia's has a bundle of 100 movies for $100 to celebrate their 100th anniversary.

I'm tempted but not sure if I want to spend $100.

You’ve probably spent $100 to rent 5 movies in the last month alone. Seems like a solid deal.

For every decent to good movie there is another that is something I would never wanna pay any money to watch. I think I would rather drop $100 on 5 movies that I love than $100 on 100 movies I don’t really care about. It’s a quality, not quantity thing for me l.

I had this thought before looking at the list, but there were more than 10 good movies whose sale price was around 10 bucks imo. Does it mean owning Mike Nichols' Wolf? I'm afraid so.

My favorite time of year! Some killer stuff here. I'll gladly defer to other folks, but for what it's worth, I'd take:
  • Psycho
  • Oldboy
  • In Bruges
  • The Exorcist
  • To Live and Die in L.A.
  • Avatar
  • Peeping Tom

In the past, @The Denmarkian Wonder has only asked me to cover shipping. I've been the beneficiary of quite a few great movies this way. At least a few are Region B. The 4Ks are region-free.

I'd consider Peeping Tom and District 9 to be glaring omissions from these (otherwise accurate) highlights.

Whoa, a psychological horror movie from Michael Powell of The Archers? Color me intrigued. Putting it on the list.

I haven't seen District 9 since theaters. I do remember liking it.

Somebody oughta grab that Coens box! And The Taking of Pelham One Two Three! And Blow Out! So much good stuff in there.
