I think Waltz is the best actor living. Til Schweiger was a heartthrob nice guy in German movies and his murderous change was quite shocking.

We tried to find Run Lola Run anywhere but could not, even on his dodgy box. Great movie. If anyone knows where to get it.

I've been meaning to watch Run Lola Run. It's currently on Hollywood Suite, if you have Shrogers with the channel you can watch it on demand online here or on your STB.

Gonna have to get to this this weekend.

Was thinking about revisiting Run Lola Run- I remember it being super fast paced, and music video like but fun.

Edit just checked and is is on Hollywood Suite on Rogers/ Shaw- will add it to my late night TV while buzzed list of things to watch

[Cecil Terwilliger]

Dirk Diggler and Ser Arlan should do a movie together.

[TheIronMaiden]

Zootopia is a fun who dunnit kinda funny, well animated. But damn renting movies with Amazon prime is expensive.


7/10

Speed Racer is awesome. I need to watch it again.

[3rd liner]

Just watched Mother of Flies. Disturbing folk horror. Recommend.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is such a comfort movie for me. I honestly think its perfect.

[Engine09]

Same here, I saw Scott Pilgrim in in the theater then bought the BluRay immediately and watch it at least twice a year.

Unrelated, finally got around to watching Ballerina. I absolutely love watching Ana De Armas but that genre of movies is just garbage, I've seen the John Wick movies and find they useless and boring.

[Burninator]

Love Scott Pilgrim as well. I have the remastered 4k blu-ray and it looks fantastic.

The Netflix animated series was good too. Took a few episodes for it to find its feet, but I thought, as a whole, it was solid.

Has anyone seen Iron Lung? My son really wants me to take him.

I find it is just like the last one.
A total waste of time.
My Iron Lung.

Scott Pilgrim does a really good job at depicting the youth of pre-Trudeau 21st century Toronto. I went to school there a few years after it came out, and it was exactly like the movie.
That was the only redeeming quality of the movir though, i found the whole thing tedious and the characters were extremely annoying. I almost walked out when there was a surprise extra ex girlfriend he had to battle.
I like the Cornetto trilogy, but Edgar Wright's other movies aren't that great. Even the Sparks documentary dragged on.

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

Can you stop talking?

For clarity, I don't just mean stop posting, I mean stop communicating with other human beings. Like, take a vow of silence and walk off into the mountains never to be heard from again.

[Shazam]

I didn't really care for the movie either. I just found it boring.

[woob]

hey n00berdeau, leave us be and go write "edgy" IMDb movie reviews, so we don't have to endure your garbage. Please.

too bad you didn't finish school. It would have helped.

[Sr. Mints]

Hamnet was very good. It explores life and our relationship with nature through a moving narrative. Some choices didn't work for me, it's a slooow burn, but the last twenty minutes are some of the most heartbreaking moments in any film I've seen in a while. Jessie Buckley is astounding. Paul Mescal's a bit overshadowed, but is incredible as well.

I've seen some people describe Hamnet as overwrought, and I'm afraid to admit I felt the same–especially the first 30 minutes. Luckily I take stimulants for a brain injury and abuse them as needed. It took me a while to tap into the film's melodramatic wavelength, however it's worth it for the ending alone. Totally transcendent and moving.

[photon]

Yup have to watch Scott Pilgrim at least once or twice a year.

I loved that series, when it first started out and it was beat for beat a total remake I was entertained.. but then suddenly it wasn't and it was awesome.
