Movies

Still waiting for showtimes of Poor Things to show up here. Hopefully next week. But hey, I am on break now! For the next three weeks. And if all works out, I plan on going to the movies 3 times next week, which is a bit crazy for me. But I want to see Boy and the Heron again (this time subbed), The Iron Claw, and Poor Things.
 
This was definitely heavier than the first two. Some really sad scenes, especially in the second half. But a lot of funny scenes as well.

Did Groot take steroids or something?

Since you liked Guardians so much, you should watch the Holiday Special on Disney+.
 
I watched this last night. The first 2/3 were fun, but the ending went a bit cliche. Still enjoyed it and got a couple laughs in.
Whole concept is kinda cliche. “My husband is an undercover agent and I had no idea ahhhh.” True Lies comes to mind, as that one just got the 4K treatment.

I think you can say that about a lot of movies these days. It's very hard to find something that hasn't been done before.

I'm in it for the entertainment and laughs, not the originality as that would be setting expectations to high.

This is mostly the reason I seek out older films/classics I’ve not seen before (pre-2000s at least). The amount of mediocre fluff that streaming services jam down our throats that passes as entertainment these days is laughable. So that’s where I get my laughs.
 
Poor Things was pretty good, though it didn't really rise to much beyond my expectations for something with such a long runtime. Funny enough, that's how I felt with The Holdovers: both good movies which held me for 20-30 minutes too many.

I adored Poor Things and didn't feel the length other than being surprised by the false ending. By only major critique is
that the lack of menstrual blood at any point feels like a real oversight that is the result of a male creative team.
 
I need to watch Aftersun!

My favorite film of the decade, I think.

There are sooo many good films being made though. Last decade honestly sits next to the 90's as my favorite decade of film. Love the 70's but a) it's hard to access some of the content and b) the creation of digital resulted in a serious indie boom. This decade started out slow because of the pandemic but this year has been excellent and last year was rock solid.
