TBH I think vol 2 was kinda disappointing, and certainly did not deliver what the expectations are after watching the first.

That depends on what your expectations are.

I didn't mean as in quality necessarily. It is simply based of the assumption one gets when watching vol1 - you can probably agree with me that vol2 is pretty different from  vol1.

Yeah I definitely like volume 1 better.

But I want 3, damn it!!!

Casino (1995) - A movie that I actually prefer yo to Martin Scorsese's other gangster flick, Goodfellas. It's larger in scale, it's more immersive, and it's more historically accurate. 9 out of 10.

That film has some of my favorite Joe Pesci moments. Always a treat to see him angry and threaten people with violence on film.

Especially the desert scene.

I think it was Bambi.

 American Girl: Felicity. One of the better American Girl movies; they were best in the earlier days.

I rewatched Arrival after buying it on Blu-ray. Honestly one of my favorite Sci-fi movies of all time, other than Interstellar.

3:10 to Yuma (2007) - Probably one of the best remakes of a western I've ever seen (behind the 2010 True Grit remake).

ZOOMBIES 2- ZOO OF THE DEAD TWICE the horrible attractions !

" Scoobs! "  9/10 It's a good movie and a great homage to the classic Scooby Doo! I didn't watch the trailer so it was surprising to see they added Dick Dastardly and Muttley to the movie. What a bonus!

Last movie I watched was Stargate (1994), usually watch a bit of Stargate SG1 and Atlantis from time to time but rarely watch the original movie so was refreshing when seeing it again after a while.

Dirty Harry.

A great movie and groundbreaker for that kind of crime drama. Andy Robinson created the template for psycho creeps and Lalo Schifrin rendered one of the best and most unusual scores ever. Aside from a few gratuitous directorial touches, this film is a classic of its kind.

Raising Arizona and The Faculty.

 

 

• Raising Arizona, although far from the best of the Coen brothers' films, is a solid purely entertaining film. That isn't to also say there's philosophy and heart to the film either, because even if the former isn't too obvious, both are there. Nicholas Cage and Holly Hunter both deliver great comical performances, but honestly for me John Goodman's supporting role in this movie really stole the show at times. Honestly a shame that Cage couldn't be in future Coen films, because he fits them just as well as John Goodman does. The arc of the film doesn't have much to read into, but it contributes to the setup of the comedic performances. 9/10.

• The Faculty is pure cheesy 90's horror B-Movie goodness. The scores for this film seem to just reflect that people don't seem to understand that it's not a film that takes itself very seriously. The teachers and students both are quite obviously caricatures designed to amplify this sort of B-Movie atmosphere and RT just says it's a bad horror movie, when it's not necessarily bad. There's nothing awfully stand-out about it though aside from a sort of anti-War on Drugs message that I'm not sure is intentional. The lack of depth to the characters doesn't really subtract much from this movie, but it does suffer from its setting a bit even if it doesn't necessarily work against the film. 7.5/10.

The Faculty is immensely underrated.

All 3 Back to the Future movies. uwu

I saw Da 5 Bloods, the new Spike Lee joint on Netflix. Gripping, intense, and very timely drama, easily one of Spike Lee's best films. 9 out of 10.

10 Clover Field Lane

 

Wasn't sure what to expect going in but I was positively surprised!

There Will Be Blood (2007).

 

This movie is very, very close to a cinematic masterpiece. The acting in this movie is so close to perfect it would be likely impossible to find a single performance that WASN'T at least good if not stellar. The writing of this movie, although sometimes losing me for a minute or two was quite great as well. The only flaw with this movie that I find really note-worthy is that its ending, although poignant with some thought applied, doesn't seem like the best ending for this movie. I will, nonetheless, say this movie is probably one of the best westerns (yes, it is a western even if it lacks a lot of standard western tropes and presents itself as a drama moreso than a normal western) to come out in the last 2 decades. I would say No Country for Old Men is the only one that I can definitively say is better. 9.5/10.

Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge. I really enjoyed it. It was almost everything I expected from an R-rated Mortal Kombat film, and it's fairly true to the games. I hope they'll make a sequel.

[TheAnimationFanatic 3,596]

Speaking of Spike Lee, I also watched He Got Game and found it to be very moving.

Paper Moon (1973).

An absolute classic with Ryan and Tatum O’Neal as a couple of con artists working their way across the Midwest during the Depression.
