Hunt for the Wilderpeople (2016) – ★★★1/2 (Ebert scale)
Good movie. The comedy works well and it’s a fun ride. Sam Neil is good, along with the rest of the cast. Good performances all around. I actually never knew that he was a New Zealand guy until I read some after watching the film.
Movie of the year!
Videodrome (1983)
5/10
That’s a higher score than I figured you’d give it.
It could have been worse.

Yes, you could have lived it like I did in college. 😉
Long live the new flesh!

The Great Wall (2016) * (out of 5)
I went into it thinking it was going to be historical drama.

I hope you’re kidding.
Premature (2014)
It’s about a high school student whose day keeps resetting whenever he prematurely ejaculates. As expected it was the best movie ever made, no question.
11/10
Not enough people read the EU.
^What the literal fuck‽
No joke, that’s the plot of the film. Like Groundhog Day meets American Pie.

No, I’m not. I had not heard of this movie beyond there being some issue with “white Washing”. I never saw an add or poster. All I knew was the title.

Hero (2002)**** (out of 5)
Now this was more of the type of film I wanted and did not get with “The Grate Wall”.

Planned a big Star Wars marathon this weekend, only had time for two movies 😛
Rogue One
Fourth time seeing it (first at home), and I still love it.
Star Wars (Despecialized)
In its various versions, I’ve seen it more times than I could ever count. It’s still a perfect movie, of course.
EDIT: Well, not all the versions are perfect of course, but you get the idea.

Hero was ok. I liked House of Flying Daggers better, but the last act kind of fell apart.

I just watched Rogue One for the second time today. I liked it, but due to the fact that, unlike the other star wars movies, it’s not really character driven it didn’t really pop as much to me. I mean I enjoy it, but it’s much harder to watch and it doesn’t really entertain me as much as the other ones. But I can’t really fault it for that, it’s just a personal preference. Also CGI Tarkin didn’t look as good as I remembered it from theater. I loved TFA though, I don’t hate everything disney.

I’ve seen it. It’s actually . . . a lot less dumb than it sounds. Kinda of endearing.
I would put this in my sig if I weren’t so lazy.

A lot of it works, but the explanation we get when he’s in the black hole just doesn’t cut it for me. It felt a bit lazy. But up to that point, and after, it was really good.

Oh yeah, I legitimately enjoyed it. I’d actually give it a six or seven out of ten.

You rated it lower than I did, but you liked it more than I did.
If I was a robot, my head would’ve melted by now.
It’s almost like ratings are subjective.

Interstellar spoilers:
I was debating 6 or 7 really. I liked the modern twist on the Dust Bowl era and most of what else happens on Earth. But then I found their insistence on hitting up the big tidal wave planet to be an unrealistic decision. I enjoyed their interaction with relativity there, but there really needed to be a more compelling reason provided for them going to that planet.
But then I really enjoyed the twist provided by Damon’s character, and the father-daughter reunion at the end. I think the idea that McConaughey went back through space time to save his family was a great plot point that was sadly very poorly and lazily executed. “Future human generations created this five-dimensional space for you.” yeah, sure. So why didn’t they all die in Dust Bowl 2.0 the first time around then?
