Must See Movies

[shoop]

I watched the first like 1/2 of it and got bored to be honest with you. Then went to bed. I thought it was going to be really good. I'll finish it at some point but yeah the buildup was pretty damn uninteresting.

I think it helped that I didn’t know it was a vampire movie when I started it. That happened and I went oh, really?

Name them, so I may judge you appropriately.

In fact, I think all of you people need to post your personal top 5-10.

Banshees of Inisherin is the only one you need to bring up.

Total Recall is a great one. I'm adding it to mine.

Dark Knight Rises over Dark Knight?

I haven't seen Dark Knight Rises.

Dark Knight Rises over Dark Knight?

I haven't seen Dark Knight Rises.

I know the first one is more popular, but I liked the second one better. I thought catwoman was really good and I especially liked the part where he's in prison and has to rehab his broken back and escape.

The problem is they gave away the vampire part of it too early too. By showing that farmhouse scene with the white girl and her boyfriend. Just poorly laid out in general.

 

[Genghis Khan]

I had to add Bram Stoker's Dracula to mine. Great movie that I saw in the theater 3 times.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Rev's list reminds me... I should have put Silence of the Lambs on there somewhere.

And I'm not a John Wayne fan, but the original True Grit is really good. Especially the young girl.

Speaking of westerns, hard to leave off Tombstone, too.

Tombstone is such a GOAT for me, I'm considering this for the living room

Jaws

Been watching a lot of the 50th anniversary retrospectives. The cinematography was unbelievable.

Just noticed that on Netflix last night. Will give it a watch tonight.

 

[Irving Cowboy]

Watch the Jaws documentary on NatGeo. You won’t be disappointed.

 

[boozeman]

The new Superman movie was just eh.

I am glad we went and saw it for $5 a ticket.
