excellent movie, excellent book. unsure about how i felt about the ending, kind of wish they would've stuck to the storyline but at the same time i'm relieved they didn't

*Batteries not included.

Much classic, so cheese.

Judge Mandolore Shepard November 25th, 2016 6:45 AM

Yesterday I went and saw Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. I thought it was a great movie.

The_Consumer November 25th, 2016 5:13 PM

The last film I watched was Arrival. That was a really exciting and intricate science fiction movie about aliens!

Esper November 27th, 2016 10:02 AM

Fantastic Beasts was surprisingly good. I say surprisingly because the trailers made it look like a cheap SFX movie of action and no heart, but there was a lot of heart.

icomeanon6 November 27th, 2016 11:25 AM

I just watched Guillermo del Toro's Cronos. Can't recommend it highly enough, unless you really have an aversion to horror elements. Beautiful, beautiful movie.

Ozymandias November 27th, 2016 5:03 PM

Just wanted to pop in and share some of the movies that I've seen in theaters as of late :3

The Handmaiden - Park Chan Wook

Arrival - Denis Villeneuve

Moonlight - Barry Jenkins

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them - David Yates

Moana - I have no idea who directed this

The last two were fun more popcorny movies, but I absolutely loved the first three. Really looking forward to when La La Land opens and I'm hopefully going to see that opening night.

Esper November 28th, 2016 2:25 PM

Watched The American President (from '95) because I want to hurt myself.

Belinda November 28th, 2016 3:10 PM

Last movie I watched was Cuatro lunas (Four Moons), if you like gay dramas then I highly recommend it. It messed with my emotions for a few days after watching it, but it was so worth my time. It was quite interesting to see how they portrayed gay romance between men in Mexico. Also it is unrated with mature themes just to let you know beforehand.

rewatched hunchback of notre dame bc been on a disney renaissance kick lately

Judge Mandolore Shepard December 1st, 2016 4:55 PM

Today I watched the the cheesiest Christmas movie ever. The last movie I watched was Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.

Sektor December 2nd, 2016 2:58 PM

Sour Grapes. Kind of hard to feel bad for people that pay 4,000,000 dollars for fake wine. Rudy Kurniawan got ten years, poor guy.

blue December 4th, 2016 4:47 PM

just watched the conjuring 2, would def recommend if you're a fan of horrors and the like.

Sylphiel December 5th, 2016 7:18 AM

Moana.

Rather good Disney movie, I thought.

Logan December 6th, 2016 5:54 AM

Finally got around to watching Creed and it was incredible; buzzing for the next step in the franchise.

dad December 12th, 2016 8:05 PM

the color purple

one of my favorite classics

Esper December 15th, 2016 10:35 AM

Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope

Now guess what movie I'm seeing tonight. :D :D :D

forg December 16th, 2016 9:46 AM

The Mist

While the movie isn't anything recent, I never came around to watching it until now, when I was convinced to. When given a summary, my curiosity was slightly poked at. As a result, I started watching it with somewhat mild expectations, only to later finish the movie very satisfied.

Spoiler:
The ending was extremely bittersweet to me ):

VulpixVixen08 December 25th, 2016 6:08 PM

Star Wars: Rogue One, in movie theaters.

moon December 27th, 2016 1:06 AM

Bee Movie

Jesus, what even did I just watch

blue December 28th, 2016 6:34 AM

Lights Out

enjoyed it more than i thought i would and ended up being spooked afterwards lmao.

Lunar December 28th, 2016 11:49 AM

I watched The Revenant earlier today, it was really good and the fact that Leo won an Oscar with so little lines compared to some of his other films shows how good of an actor he really is.

Esper December 28th, 2016 12:02 PM

Moana was pretty good, just saw it yesterday. Maybe not see-it-in-theatres-good, but I'm sure kids will watch it over and over.

Dedenne1 December 28th, 2016 12:35 PM

So i did a quadruple feature with my friends yesterday and saw (in order):

Passengers which was the best movie that night and easily worth a 5/5 in my opinion because of the amazing animation, attention to detail, character development and the obvious amazing actors :3

Second was originally gonna be sing but since it sold out we saw Assasins Creed which was the worst one that night. Now I'm not a fan of Assasins Creed so I cant speak much on the subject but the movie had okay acting at best and didnt really appeal to anyone outside of the fandom so it was kinda hard to enjoy it and made it a 1.5/5 in my opinion.

Third up was Collateral Beauty which was most likely good for the average viewer. For me I enjoyed it buuuuut I could guess the ending before it reached the halfway point. I enjoyed the plot, acting and premise though so its easily a 3.5/5 in my opinion.

Lastly was Moana which was (as most disney movies are) amazing. Good vocals, great animation, nice plot, kept me questioning I mean I could go on and on. The only reason I won't give it a 5/5 is because it had some unanswered plot holes which I won't elaborate on because spoilers hehe. Anyways in my opinion overall it was a 4/5 and I will probably go see it again someday along with Passengers.

Her December 29th, 2016 1:49 PM

nocturnal animals

shouldn't have watched it on putlocker because there were five minutes of scenes missing lmao
when i watch the proper version i'll be able to say whether i liked it more - but i felt like while a single man was tom ford's better effort, it's proven that he is by no means a one hit wonder and should definitely be considered as someone with artistic merit behind the camera as well as creating items for it. jake gyllenhaal & michael shannon hit it out of the park, while i thought that amy adams got the look down (the final shot is haunting) but was overpowered by the sheer drama of the story and the much more compelling performances around her. i look forward to what else tom ford can bring us in the future.

singin' in the rain

every single aspect of this movie has held up over the years - even the natural clunkiness of the writing style of the time is endearing and doesn't detract at all. the setpieces are beautiful, the dance numbers stunning and the actors immortal. gene kelly really did no better than this totally-not-cary-grant impression and i can believe every bit of the charisma and debonair persuasion involved. debbie reynolds matched his charm with her own magnetism, combining the natural talent and youthful prowess expected of the golden age with a delightful girl next door charm. absolutely beautiful movie. oh debbie.

starseed galaxy auticorn December 30th, 2016 4:02 AM

Star Wars: A New Hope

You know why, people. TT_____TT

Judge Mandolore Shepard December 31st, 2016 4:38 PM

Today I went and saw Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. I really enjoyed it.

JJ Styles January 9th, 2017 5:20 PM

Underworld: Blood Wars.

More like why is this movie franchise still around? So we can still see more of Kate Beckinsale in her black body suits? I wouldn't mind that but to be completely honest, after watching every entry (YEP) in this series, i can safely say that it just has to stop.
  • Awkwardly long scenes where nothing happens.
  • Spoiler:
    Dominatrix scene. Oh the ladies loved that doe.
  • Exposition City. Explaining what happened, what's happening, and what will happen. WHY. Because STORY & NARRETIVE
  • The Dark Blue color scheme that the film (and the series as a whole) uses in order to look "EDGY" was getting rather old. It was already an issue from the first film, but its what people remember the film series.

The only good thing i can say is that Kate Beckinsale for all these years, still looked damn good in her role as Selene. And i do have to commend that rather than give a reboot, they decided to continue the storyline. I was actually quite amazed.

And yep, the movie was directed by a Newbie director. That's what an aging franchise definitely needed.

*******************

Assassin's Creed because VIDEO GAMES!

AC was meant to be played.

tokyodrift January 9th, 2017 5:22 PM

The Conjuring 2: it was a pretty damn good movie. gives the first run for it's money imo.

Margot January 9th, 2017 6:39 PM

The Grand Budapest Hotel.

Not my favorite of Anderson's films, but still a really good one nonetheless. I liked the characters in this film a lot more than the characters in his other films. It was stylistically beautiful, but sometimes the contrast in the colors were too bright or too much (I don't even know how to describe this) and I couldn't stare at them too long. The story was really nice, but it ended on a more somber note where his other films to end on a somewhat positive one.

Will definitely re-watch again soon.

I'm glad you finally did haha. It's a masterpiece. They all are. I hope you'll watch the other two very soon!


I watched Book of Life the other day. Suuuuper cute animated love story movie. I really enjoyed it a lot. Mexico and death has never been so cute c:

Esper January 10th, 2017 12:22 PM

Kubo and the Two Strings

It was pretty good. Kinda darker than most kids' films though. Not that that's a bad thing.

I thought this was his most watchable film. I couldn't even finish The Royal Tenenbaums.

what didn't you like? personally I think the style in Budapest is more overt and In Your Face than that of Tenenbaums so I'm intrigued! (I love them both.) (and all of his films, to varying degrees.)

I caught Princess Mononoke in theatres last night. I'd seen it before and loved it but seeing it on the big screen kinda reaffirmed everything I thought about it. it's probably the most atmospheric of his films that I've seen which is saying a lot because every single one conjures up that sense of mysticism to a huge degree, but the world in this film is so dense and fully realized. I also like that even in the Miyazaki fantasy worlds that are kinda shitty, I'd still rather live in em than the real world. Whoops. wonderful film, though, with a wonderful message that's elegantly handled, subtly enough that it's not forceful but with a heavy enough hand that it's still very much there undercutting everything that's going on.

I've heard this before, actually. My friend isn't a big fan of his other works but really liked Grand Budapest Hotel. Hahaha I guess we differ on this though, since Tenenbaums is my favorite of his.

mireka January 11th, 2017 6:22 AM

Last movie I watched was ant-man. I never got to see it in theaters and Paul Rudd is like my fav actor ever so I was pretty bummed.

ended up being my fav marvel movie, at least until spider-man homecoming comes out

It was a while ago now so it's hard to remember exactly what, but I didn't like any of the characters and so I didn't care to see how the movie ended.

Sydian January 11th, 2017 8:57 PM

Watched The Secret Life of Pets over this past weekend. It was cute. That's really all I can say about it. It's cute and looks nice. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't amazing either. I found it pretty predictable, especially when they went that route for Duke's previous owner. Like I called it as soon as the plot point about him came up and you see the old owner in the flashbacks. lol But I mean, it's nothing bad. Just cute. Nice to watch, probably won't watch it again voluntarily.

blue January 14th, 2017 8:13 AM

watched captivity and it was just eh. storyline was confusing and it didn't really leave a lasting impression like other horror movies.

Judge Mandolore Shepard January 14th, 2017 8:47 PM

Today I went and saw the Assassin's Creed movie. I really enjoyed the movie. One reason why I enjoyed the movie is because I have played the games in the Assassin's Creed series.

Esper January 17th, 2017 10:24 AM

Hidden Figures was a pretty good movie. Good historical drama with good acting. Good good good. Taraji P. Henson will probably get some awards off of that performance.

Judge Mandolore Shepard January 25th, 2017 6:48 AM

During the past five days, the last three movies I watched were as follows:

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans
Underworld
Underworld: Evolution

They were quite interesting movies.

Talon January 29th, 2017 7:24 PM

Blair Witch : Not amazing, but a significant improvement upon the first one. This one was actually scary to an extent, and built up and maintained it's suspense throughout.


Deepwater Horizon : An outstanding film. I don't really know how to explain it. It was so dramatic, but not overly dramatic. It was done perfectly. My favorite movie of the year thus far (Even though it was released last year).

tokyodrift January 29th, 2017 8:06 PM

Hidden Figures: It was a really great movie. Took place in segregated America which should speak for itself. On the other hand it was as intense in terms of race as I thought it would be but it was still very apparent.

Frozocrone January 30th, 2017 5:54 AM

Hunchback of Notre Dame. Felt like watching a Disney film and one I hadn't seen yet. Was a pretty good watch.

Not bothered with Assassin's Creed. The best parts of the game are the open world and travel mechanics, which the film doesn't provide. Pretty much all video game films are bad. The last one I saw was Ratchet and Clank and I loved it because of the nostalgia but outside the game, it won't really appeal to others.

Cariad February 2nd, 2017 5:24 AM

went to go see moana in the cinema a week or so ago; absolutely adored it! naturally since it's a disney film (i may be a little biased) it was adorable & amazing, and i absolutely loved the entire story and concept. moana is probably my second favourite disney princess after this (no one can take mulan's place) and everything abt it was rly pure - no love interest, no weird relationship between her and maui, just a good storyline with amazing music.

SameKOTF February 2nd, 2017 10:28 AM

Saw Split a couple of days ago. It was pretty intense. I highly recommend it if you're into suspense movies.

Frozocrone February 5th, 2017 5:08 AM

Saw Lego Batman today. Easily.better than any live action DC film in the last decade.

starseed galaxy auticorn February 8th, 2017 5:35 AM

Finding Dory.

Seriously, this movie was adorable. I loved baby Dory...she was sooooo cute. <3 It really made me love her even more though~

I mean look at her:

The Selena Movie. Found it on Lifetime while channel-surfing. The only time I saw something on Lifetime without getting hammered first.

Sothis February 11th, 2017 8:59 AM

One called Twixt
Was interesting, I like the ending song.

Lunar February 11th, 2017 11:45 AM

I don't know how, but I only saw Shutter Island for the first time last night. It was a really good film, even if I did call the big twist like halfway through ;)

Judge Mandolore Shepard February 11th, 2017 3:52 PM

Today I went and saw The Lego Batman Movie. I really enjoyed it.

Amore February 13th, 2017 10:13 AM

Just watched Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid on Netflix again. One of the all time great westerns, just wish Sergio Leone's Man With No Name "trilogy" (one guy plays two different characters in consecutive films where the latter is set earliest out of all three, but they're thematically the same) were on there too - I'm a student, I can't afford multiple streaming services, I don't even have a tv licence.

Esper February 14th, 2017 10:01 AM

I watched Mad Max. Having only seen Fury Road I was kinda expecting something different. Really surprised that the movie had sequels made.

antemortem February 16th, 2017 1:23 AM

King Cobra and Doctor Strange

Pretty fantastic movies for very different reasons.

Juno February 21st, 2017 1:24 AM

Went to see Split today! Really liked it for the most part, but without giving anything away, I felt like the takeaway message/ending was kind of wrong. From a movie-going perspective it was really interesting and I was on the edge of the seat the whole time, but I also feel like it kind of further stigmatizes people with DID, since this is a real disorder.

RyleeXylph February 21st, 2017 4:35 PM

Jurassic World. It took me long enough to get around to watching it, but I had a really good time with it! Truly the sequel Jurassic Park deserves.

Sylphiel February 22nd, 2017 9:23 AM

Finally got around to watching Sully. Been wanting to see it for a while as I was interested in how they dramatized the event, and...well, I did enjoy it. Might have even been a bit better than I was expecting it to be.

I watched Ponyo!!! <3

I love this movie so much. I find it easy to relate to Ponyo in a lot of ways.

Limey-chan February 24th, 2017 3:11 PM

Saw the latest Fifty Shades movie with GF tonight.

It was awful haha. For a movie called 'Fifty Shades Darker', it wasn't very.. dark. To be honest, it was pretty tame sexually as well. 2/10, would not recommend.

dad February 26th, 2017 9:18 AM

get out and it was good as fuck y'all. like probably the best i've seen in a year or two, would pay to see again

Amore February 27th, 2017 1:06 PM

All that oscars build-up led to me reading an article about Marisa Tomei's oscar win and the bs theory about it being an accident (which seems prescient now although I'm sure those articles are posted by news sites every year), so I watch My Cousin Vinny. Would definitely recommend it.

Also been going through a little Will Ferrel phase today so watched Talladega Nights, Blades of Glory and Stranger than Fiction. The former is almost as good as Anchorman imo but less quotable, and the latter is so unlike anything else he's done buy also really quite good.

Esper March 2nd, 2017 10:44 AM

I saw Moonlight. I can see why people would pick it for best picture (I would still have picked Arrival), though I don't think it's my kind of movie otherwise. To be sure, the acting and all that was good and if you like those kind of intimate, coming of age stories then you should see it.

Amore March 2nd, 2017 1:01 PM

Allied. Wasn't sure what to expect but saw it had a decent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Quite a good film.

mikey March 2nd, 2017 1:14 PM

The remake of Blair Witch.

Perfect example of why I rarely watch remakes. Was so corny.

Loriania March 2nd, 2017 4:31 PM

DVD- Ponyo, Spirited Away

Theater- Doctor Strange

ilookgorgeous March 3rd, 2017 12:23 PM

Titanic, Wedding Crashers, and Twilight. :) I don't know why I just happened to find them on tv. (Twilight I have more than one of.)

Amore March 3rd, 2017 3:16 PM

1941 I know it got a mixed reception but I think its hilarious

Cay March 3rd, 2017 8:03 PM

I SAW MOONLIGHT AND HOLY FUCK

Meganium March 3rd, 2017 8:14 PM

Saw La La Land last night.

I see why it won so many oscars.

Esper March 6th, 2017 12:34 PM

Logan was good. Better than Deadpool. Lots of violence though, but I guess I should have expected that given the rating.

tokyodrift March 6th, 2017 2:47 PM

saw Get Out recently and it's such a good movie!

Amore March 6th, 2017 11:39 PM

Godzilla (2014) Surprisingly good. The beginning is one of the few times I've had a tear in my eye watching a movie. Also Godzilla is totally Tyranitar.

kitarei March 7th, 2017 8:33 PM

Logan. It was brilliant. I'm a huge Wolverine and Hugh Jackman fan so I found it a little sad that it's the end of Jackman's era as the character. Overall it was an awesome, action packed, violent, and funny film. Cried at the end.

Florges March 9th, 2017 5:14 PM

Logan was absolutely perfect. I am a huge X-Men fan, and although I have been overly critical of all of the X-Men and side films so far, this movie exceeded my expectations. It was the perfect swan song for Sir Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman. It also cemented the spot of my favorite superhero film of all time.

Cay March 11th, 2017 8:38 AM

just saw get out

i am blown away

same :(

Also bought Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find them on digital, and just got done watching that. I'm a big fan of all things related to the Harry Potter universe, so this movie never gets old for me. I'm also really excited to see more of Grindelwald's story in the sequels as well because to me he's a way more compelling villian than Voldermort..and unlike Voldermort you can almost understand where he's coming from imo even if his methods are extreme and crazy misguided.

Esper March 12th, 2017 9:02 AM

Finding Dory was pretty cute.

Judge Mandolore Shepard March 24th, 2017 5:41 AM

The last movie I watched was the new Power Rangers movie. It was really awesome. Now I would like to point out that it takes place in a different continuity from the show. When a certain song was heard in the movie, people in the theater I was in not only started cheering, one person even whistled. I highly recommend this movie to any Power Rangers/Super Sentai fan.

Amore March 24th, 2017 9:21 AM

Watching Office Space to get over the fact that I dropped my iPhone in the toilet last night and now the camera is like permanently blurred and half the screen is dark.

Still a great movie at the same time as being obviously dated.

Syssareth March 24th, 2017 9:26 PM

Solace. It's about a grumpy old psychic (Anthony Hopkins) working with the FBI (Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Abbie Cornish) to hunt down and catch a serial killer (Colin Farrell). There's way more to it, of course, but that's the spoiler-free summary.

My mother and I both really enjoyed it, and I was utterly shocked to look it up out of curiosity and see that it has a 24% RT rating. (Not that bad critic ratings for good movies are out of the ordinary, but that's a very low rating, especially for a movie I expected to get at least 70%.)

Esper March 25th, 2017 10:14 AM

The new Beauty and the Beast was, um, something. Cringy at times, and in every scene you could almost picture the room full of executives discussing what changes to make:

"We should have a gay character. That will help us sell it."
"Oh, like Lumiere and Cogsworth could be a couple?"
"No, don't make it an important character."

The new songs felt really out of place. And really, when was the last time you had a movie with so much talent come out so muddy? Emma Thompson and Ewan McGregor in particular felt miscast.

pastelspectre March 25th, 2017 2:03 PM

the last movie i saw was naomi and ely's no kiss list on netflix. it was a cute and drama filled movie, and had one of my favorite actresses, victoria justice. she was hot in that movie ngl. it was a cute movie and if you like drama and comedy, and romance then i recommend this movie.

blue April 1st, 2017 1:23 PM

Don't Breathe is one of the best movies I've seen in recent years. So many scenes where I was practically on the edge of my seat and literally had no idea what was going to happen from one moment to the next, especially towards the ending.

maccrash April 1st, 2017 2:57 PM

I went and saw Blade Runner in theatres on Thursday night, probably the fourth or fifth time I've seen it. there's only one part in the film I'm iffy on
Spoiler:
(the romance between Deckard and Rachel whose first "romantic" scene is Weird and I'm still not entirely sure of the Tonal Read on it)
but there is so much to love about this movie. it's completely stunning and there's so much going on that I Could write about but that would require a lot of thought organization that I might not be able to accomplish on this dreary Saturday evening. needless to say, definitely one of my favorite films of all time.

e: i forgot this is how the spoilers here work i very rarely use them. SORRY THIS POST LOOKS DUMB.

i'm glad victoria finally has a fan bc the poor girl has been trying so hard to no avail

body heat was a lot of fun. i know people remember this film primarily because it was kathleen turner's star making turn as matty tyler, but i found myself drawn to the slimy and pathetic ned. not because of any sympathy or what not, but because of how william hurt took the role of the incompetent and naive sucker and gave it that exciting mix of 'do you want him to succeed or do you want him to suffer for being a fool? keep watching' that gave the movie its kick to me.

Amore April 9th, 2017 9:40 AM

Goldfinger was on tv. James Bond has a magic stick in his trousers apparently...or maybe it was just rape. Yet still I find it less creepy than his first "romance" in Spectre.

Just re-watched Creed. Great addition to the Rocky canon, I'll be gutted if there's not a Ryan Coogler-helmed sequel because clearly him plus Michael B. Jordan = winning.

Also...how much cheek must MBJ have had during his youth? I really hope someone nicknamed him "Looney Toons" post-Space Jam haha

moon April 18th, 2017 8:59 AM

Moana, for the second time. Just as good now, even though this wasn't in the cinema c:

I admit, I wish they'd make it a romance story in some ways. Buuuut I also really like that you could swap Moana out for a boy of the same age and not change much of the dialogue and nothing at all of the plot and it would all make just as much sense. Not saying that it would be impossible for that boy-Moana and Maui to be gay lol, I'm saying that it it quite refreshing that Moana really wasn't a stereotypical "Disney princess". She didn't even dream of princes and dances and dresses like Anna from Frozen or Rapunzel from Tangled did. Moana was just a really cool dudette.

Her April 21st, 2017 6:04 PM

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

The subtext! Elizabeth Taylor! Paul Newman! Been wanting to visit both of their respective filmographies as of late. Gonna start with Ms Taylor and see where we go.

The Escorts. Has the daughter from HIMYM in a lead role, pretty formulaic rom-com but fun / sweet enough on the way to the inevitable ending.

You Don't Mess with the Zohan. Possibly the best thing I've seen by Adam Sandler made in the 21st century. I know I'm not saying much there, but it really is quite funny. No doubt it offends Israelis and Palestinians equally (there's a lot of hummus and poking fun at both sides) but I'm white so its all perfectly fun for me. One of the few times he's doing an accent / voice without playing the character as mentally challenged and it benefits from it.

Whiplash. This was really, really good. So good it made me download Damien Chazelle's first film, and also really wish I'd seen La La Land whilst it was in cinemas because all the same people praise all 3. J.K. Simmons is great, really quite scary and Miles Teller is also brilliant in this.

I just finished watching Hacksaw Ridge. As it is a World War II movie, I thought it was quite interesting.

Minions.

Noticed it as we were scrolling through netflix, and I was basically like "let's watch that just for the hell of it." And...it wasn't really obnoxious like I thought it would be. Definitely ridiculous, though. Also rather cute. I actually didn't mind it at all.

Tramps

A mildly diverting 80 minutes on Netflix, I watched it whilst eating, then did most of my daily internet routine while it was on. The sort of thing where you don't want to think too much, full of nice warm tones, no violence either, surprisingly.

Fast 8. It was very entertaining!

I just watched Rogue One finally. It was so goooooood.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2

Watched the first one before I headed to it, for direct comparison. It did not disappoint! Probably the funniest and most brightly-coloured superhero film ever made.

Yeahboi.

Welfare: a 3 hour documentary about a day in the life of a Social Security office in 1970s New York City. Absolutely gripping, and an eye-opener to how monumentally shit and confusing US bureaucracy truly is.

Last night I watched Guardians of the Galaxy for a recap. Why did I do that? Well, today I went and saw Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. I really enjoyed the movie.
