Re: Good films..
It looks great, but I don't have Hulu. Maybe it will reach these here shores in other ways tho! Watched Spring Breakers again. Such a great movie. With this scene as the absolute highlight of course:

Re: Good films..
I'll up the weirdness and say that I can see both videos. @ Satis, I'd recommend you watch it. The movie is written and directed by Harmony Korine, who also wrote Kids and Gummo back in the 90s if those ring a bell.

Re: Good films..
I never watched kids, but I watched gummo. That was a fucked up movie. Thanks for the tip, I'll see if I can wrangle up a copy.
BTW, watched the Invisible Man recently. OMG, that movie was terrible. I have no idea how it's gotten such good ratings.

Re: Good films..
Oh damn...Elisabeth Moss is a pretty great actress so I figured her presence alone would have made it work, but I guess not. I'll still give it a spin when I can though. Watched The Irishman yesterday, all 3.5 hours in one go. Wonderful movie.The only gripe I have with it is the weird decision to let De Niro and co play their (much) younger selves with the de-aging techniques. It works well when it's just a close up shot without a lot of movement but the moment they move you can tell it's not the movement of a man who is supposed to be around 40 years old. It's really jarring. But these old geezers sure can still act. Pesci, De Niro and especially Pacino are great. I thought Pacino was done but what he pulls off in this one is some of his best stuff ever. Crazy. Can't believe I wasn't bored for one minute during all three and a half hours....beautiful cinematography, great soundtrack, amazing script, top notch acting. And that ending...

Re: Good films..
haha... funny... Shiny and I hated that movie. It was so slow and boring. The de-aging was horrible... I guess we agree there. It did not look like a young de niro curb stomping some guy, it looked really stupid and fake. *shrug* Also, Pesci's nose looks like a penis. It's horrible. :p
So, you may like the invisible man. To Shiny and I it had some seriously bad plot holes. There's also a scene involving a knife and some casual dinnertime murder that makes no sense at all. That was a 3 tequila shot scene at a minimum. however, please, watch it.
That aside, I did indeed wrangle up a copy of spring breakers, but have not yet watched it. I imagine that'll happen this coming weekend. I'm kinda looking forward to it. The opening boobs scene was a strong encouragement. :p We did finish Crossing Swords and it was pretty good all the way through.. worth a watch if you want. Also watched the Altered Carbon: Resleeved anime on netflix, enjoyed it quite a bit. I like that whole universe and both seasons so far, so not surprising. The resleeved was more a standalone anime movie, but cut in the same mold.
Also watched Space Force on netflix. I'm not a big fan of Steve Carrel(sp?), but I really enjoyed the show. Some rather enormous science issues, but hey, whatever.

Re: Good films..
I watched Spring Breakers... that's a pretty good movie. I definitely liked it, so thanks for recommending it. Also rewatched Starship Troopers... I still love that movie. As for Fallout... I'm kind of excited. Assuming it becomes a reality, I'd love to see all that retro-futurism-apocalypse translated into live action.

Re: Good films..
Yea, I think there's a lot of room for Fallout to be amazingly standout. Between the retro-futuristic 1950s chic and the super bleak reality... it can definitely be amazing.
BTW, I watched The Old Guard on Netflix recently. I liked it. This is about a group of immortal soldiers running around being badass.
Don't expect too much from it and you'll probably like it.

Re: Good films..
I found the movie really weak. There's really no saving factor. Almost everything seemed like half-assed. Perhaps not the final dive though, that was actually ok but you can see it coming the moment they step into the room.

Re: Good films..
I did however like the movie 'Lost bullet'. Its a french action film. Make sure you set the voice over to original because the English one is ridiculously bad and use subtitles instead.
