I can't get through Requiem for a Dream again.

The biggest problem with the original is the entire olot dump about 3/4 in.

The biggest problem with the remake is the concept over-reaching.

It insists upon itself?

[Badger]

Damn you Steve. Just watched kids for the first time in like 25 years. I forgot how annoying some of it is, but it definitely brought me back. That soundtrack is a lot doper than I remember it being, but damn that last 10 minutes is hard to watch.

Lol, I’ve been watching some emotionally draining movies. Thanks Steve ;D

Grave of the Fireflies next?

Grave of the Fireflies next?

Oh god, that one is rough.

Yo. I don’t know what the freak it is I just watched. I can’t even make my mind up on whether or not I liked it. But, man Possession just mind fucked the excrement out of me.

I cannot say all of the violent things this pun is making me think because I will be typing for decades.

This was such a fun movie, I have no interest in wrestling but I loved it. If you have Prime it's currently streaming on there.

It's behind some sort of premium subscription here.

I don’t know if it’s possible, and I’ve watched it and re-watched it again, but if somehow you could add the entire This Is England series (‘86, ‘88 and ‘90) that would be fantastic. It’s on YouTube but it’s not the easiest way to watch it and it’s one of the best series I’ve ever seen. Literally on my Mt. Rushmore of tv.

After seeing Uncut Gems, I’m curious about Good Time now. Haven’t seen Memento in awhile either. I want to watch Blood In, Blood Out again. I know it’s in there and I haven’t seen it in literally 20 years.

[Badger]

I recommend Good Time.

[guinness77]

So Gummo…um yeah.

[guinness77]

Also, recently watched Shutter Island, Harold and Maude and Dog Day Afternoon (all finally) and have to say I loved Harold and Maude. Slow start but a couple of really hilarious scenes and an uplifting movie too. Shutter Island has that twist at the end that, frankly, I should have seen coming and Dog Day Afternoon was good, Pacino great of course, but I wasn’t blown away by it. I guess, in it’s day, it was groundbreaking.

So Gummo…um yeah.

Feel good fun for the whole family.

Feel good fun for the whole family.

I actually went down the Harmony Korine rabbit hole a bit yesterday and watched his Letterman appearances which were hilarious (I’m pretty sure he smoked crack before the third one) and watched the show/doc about him on Vice which actually shed a pretty good light on him and, to me, explained a lot about his writing and movie making. Despite how obviously weird Gummo was, I didn’t think it was bad at all. It’s not gonna make my top 10 list but I’m intrigued enough that I’m probably gonna watch Julian Donkey Boy soon. I’d even watch Spring Breakers but it’s not on the list.
