Yeah the animation is top notch and the subject matter is definitely not “kids movie “. I’ve now been trying to get people to watch it, so poignant for the times we live in.
I thought it was ok, I was hoping for more action from a movie about one of the greatest generals but it glossed over that to highlight his weird sex and marriage.
Watched Little Miss Sunshine and Grave of the Fireflies last night with my movie group.
LMS was pretty good, the pageant was creepy bit but I think that was the point. Nice little heartwarming family story and some corpse wrangling.
GotF was intensely sad as expected. The animation is absolutely top notch and the story is super relevant to our current events of war and civilian suffering.
I’m excited to see what is next after the superhero trend dies and goes the way of the Western. In 20 years maybe we’ll get the Unforgiven of cape movies.
I will definitely put them on the long list, we come together every other week and watch 2 movies, one is picked by a different person and one by me. My buddy’s next turn I think he’s doing Get Out so maybe another horror night, that’s in a couple months though. We’re watching Little Miss Sunshine and Grave of the Fireflies next.
Watched From Beyond and Ready or Not, I liked both. Ready or Not is a lot of fun and gave me the feelings of a Cabin in the Woods side story. Bonus points for portraying the rich people as stupid and useless.
From Beyond was exactly what I wanted it to be, weird body horror top notch 80’s B movie. A classic everyone should see if you even have a passing interest in the horror genre. It’s so gross, the grossest part isn’t even a special effect, I love it. Happy Halloween Everyone.
My movie night group watched The Woman King and Us, The Woman King was ok, fairly generic besides it being lady warriors. Us I liked a lot if I don’t try to logic it out. I really liked in the beginning with the dad like being in a different movie than the rest of his brooding family. He reminded me of the Dad from Eraserhead eating his mutant chicken just trying to have a calm day after work.
On this Thursday we’re watching Ready or Not and From Beyond, both I haven’t seen before.
