The film Golda is a haunting tale that pays respect to those who died during the Yom Kipper War. A must see but not to be watched lightly. #neveragain #neverforget.

I saw live action Aladdin on tv, which i had been avoiding seeing for years because of all the negative reviews, and i was surprised how much i enjoyed it. So while i didn’t like Beauty and the Beast, i did enjoy Cinderella and Aladdin. And i haven’t seen any of the others.
The film Joker is a masterpiece and a social commentary. It deconstructs society and yet it’s messed up. A hard watch but also a necessary one. Top marks but not for the faint of heart.

The film Black Phone is a rousing tense thriller that has a great deal to say about surviving abuse and adversity. Not for the faint of heart.

Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 1. Incredible action movie. Only the train scene looked fake. One of the best Mission Impossible films. Why this film bombed at the boxoffice i have no idea. It was better than No Time to Die. And also better than the newest John Wick.

Barbenheimer killed all of its momentum.
The film Five Nights at Freddy’s is a fantastic adaptation of the game series. A must see for both fans of the horror genre and of the game.

I saw The Book of Life on Max last night and enjoyed it. Jorge Gutierrez’s art style is pretty amazing, and most of the characters are lovable. It is a MASSIVE improvement over Free Birds in my opinion.
The film Everything Everywhere All At Once is a fantastic story of redemption and acceptance and of being kind when life is tough. The only good thing you can do is be the best you can and do the best you can. A must see.

The film Scarface lives up to its reputation as a cinematic classic. The story also warns that power and greed will destroy you.

I hooked up my laserdisc player and watched some of Tenchi Muyo in Love 2. And Return of the Jedi. Tenchi is only in Japanese, the other was the HK THX disc for ROTJ. Pan and Scan. Interesting watching the old X-files previews at the beginning and the Leonard Maltin Interview with George Lucas. Tenchi in love 2 has a near DVD quality picture and is very good, the Hong Kong Disc for JEDI is very washed out and not so good. I honestly think the VHS has better resolution, the only thing that excels is the PCM sound its loud and wonderfully robust.
The skin tones are very red on the actors faces, i thought at first it was my tv but its properly calibrated so its the THX remastering.
The film Tower Heist is an amazing romp, with an important message, which is that insanity will always prevail in the face of the determination overcome injustice.

Best of series Japan Laserdisc of American Graffiti. I don’t recommend this transfer at all. Its one of the worst i’ve ever seen. I mean i can forgive that its pan and scan but its worse than some VHS tapes i have seen. Yes the sound is digital audio but its tinny sounding and absolutely terrible. Like someone taped a radio broadcast on cassette.
I’m just going to have to get the 1996 letterbox THX disc of the pre Special Edition and see if its better. I might have to settle for the revised 1998 edit if the sound and image is superior. the Signature collection.
I didn’t bother with my MCA Discovision disc its gotta be worse than the one i just watched. And its analog audio only.
Starcrash. I’ve finally watched a sci fi film that is worse than the Star Wars Holiday Special. One of the worst films i have ever seen, worse than At the Earth’s Core even.
Just watched Asteroid City for the first and probably only time. I was on a 20mg gummy edible, and I don’t recommend watching it any other way. It’s decent, but very “Wes Anderson”, and that’s all I can really say about it.

This movie has a cult following, and I just don’t get it. Caroline Munro’s hot. Big whoop. T&A alone can’t elevate a bad movie to so-bad-it’s-good.
“The Anarchists are right in everything; in the negation of the existing order and in the assertion that, without Authority there could not be worse violence than that of Authority under existing conditions. They are mistaken only in thinking that anarchy can be instituted by a violent revolution… There can be only one permanent revolution — a moral one: the regeneration of the inner man. How is this revolution to take place? Nobody knows how it will take place in humanity, but every man feels it clearly in himself. And yet in our world everybody thinks of changing humanity, and nobody thinks of changing himself.”
― Leo Tolstoy

Maybe it depends on the crowd, but I remember seeing it at a special screening with a few hundred B-movie fans and thought it was hilarious.
You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.

I did some binge-watching on a lot of B-movies and Roger Corman movies last year (Star Crash being one of them), and my experiences are hit-or-miss. It either entertains me or it doesn’t. I’ve watched plenty of b-movies that left me bored despite the rabid fanbase. While other times, I watch one that is universally despised by everyone else, but ends up being an unintentional comedy riot that makes my night.
I guess when it comes to b-movies, it truly is a subjective experience, even more so than with more “artistic” films. When you watch a movie that’s supposed to be good, there is a real effort to make it something more universally applicable to everyone. This is why people take it personally when someone says they hate, say, The Shawshank Redemption. That’s rarely the case with a cheesy b-movie where rookie mistakes are made on a consistent basis. Either those technical blunders are gonna get a laugh out of you, or you’re just gonna notice their existence and be reminded you’re not invested in what’s going on.
Tl;dr: the entertainment level of a b-movie is variable in my world, and if someone doesn’t like Star Crash, I understand why. Not everyone has to laugh at the same things.
I have altered Lucas’ visions. Pray I don’t alter them any further.
The film The Boy and The Heron is a fantastic film that speaks of moving through grief and accepting the new connections we can make.

I just watched Close Encounters of the Third Kind for the first time. Better practical effects than the original Star Wars trilogy. There I said it.

Douglas Trumbull was the special effects supervisor. Of course the practical effects would look great! He was the master of practical effects.
