[Parsely]

After watching In the Mouth of Madness, I have to wonder what the first example of the "crazy person writing on the walls" is in movies.

[Yoink]

I just re-watched Children of Men, and was surprised by the amount of details I missed the first time I viewed it.
Or perhaps I just forgot more of it than I realised? Either way, it's an excellent film, watch it. Watch it.

Watched The Revenant for the first time just now. At last, I've seen the performance that finally won DiCaprio an Oscar.

Spoiler: Not really a spoiler at all, just a vague comment on the tone of the film (click to show/hide)

I feel like I just watched Adventure Mode: The Movie.
Except with less fast-travel...

I'd like to recommend Rubber to everyone who liked Men Who Stare At Goats. Slow pacing, excellent movie.

[Atian the Elephantman God]

I recommend "300" to anyone who hasn't seen it.

[TD1]

This. Is. BAY12!

Of course we've seen it.

[Yoink]

I haven't seen it...

I'd like to recommend Rubber to everyone who liked Men Who Stare At Goats. Slow pacing, excellent movie.

I didn't really like MWSAG, as much as I tried to. But I loved Rubber. 
Everyone needs to watch that film, it is amazing! Pretty sure I've praised it in this thread before.

So, um, Drive (2011). It's nice, noir-ish flick. Nothing extraordinary about it, it's just all-around good, that's what I make of this movie.

Nothing extraordinary about it

Apart from it oozing retro 80s style like it's the old Miami Vice on steroids.

Just watched Super 8. I actually found it quite touching in parts.

I enjoy Steven Universe. You're not getting that from here.

On an unrelated note, The Killing Joke (DC animated movie) is pretty good, with Kevin Conroy as Bats and Hamill as Mista J. First 30 or so minutes of the movie were sort of out of place, IMO. But that one joke spoken out in these voices makes it, really.

[Yoink]

Anyone who hasn't seen Frank (2014) should really do themselves a favour and watch it.
I just did, after spotting in on a Netflix trawl and having only the vaguest idea what it was about, and it was actually really good. Not going to say anything about it lest I spoil the surprise, but it's good. Go watch it.

[Yoink]

Just watched a movie called Asthma, it was alright I guess.

But last night I watched Small Apartments, which I'd seen floating around on Netflix for a long time but had never gotten around to watching. I dunno, I guess Switzerland and alphorns just aren't really my thing. But it turned out to be a rather charming, compelling, very strange and occasionally hilarious independent film. I recommend it, for sure.

I also re-watched Napoleon Dynamite, which was a good thing since I didn't get much out of it when I watched it years ago.
Glad I did, it's actually a pretty great film. Not sure why I didn't like it last time, it was so long ago I can't remember.

[Il Palazzo]

Arrival! Watch iiit! So nice.

Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. II.

If you have not watched it, do so now. It is now my official favourite Marvel movie. I don't think I've ever laughed so much in a cinema before, and yet still been capable of feeling sadness when the plot called for it.
