I can't say I have.

The 70's are better for American film, but the European arthouse was firing on all cylinders. I have already mentioned the French New Wave and Leone but you also had Fellini at his best and Bergman and Bresson and Dreyer and Tarkovsky and Antonioni. An embarrassment of riches.

Best decade for music and movies?

Morrissey replied to the thread TV Show Scrubs.

The Janitor is a bigger omission.

Morrissey posted a new thread: History of Film, Part 6: 1960-1969.

A variation on the yearly threads we did a few years ago, with these monthly threads we will talk about individual eras of film, from the obvious classics...

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie Weapons (Zach Cregger, August 8, 2025).

It has been a crazy few weeks. I will make it tonight. Hopefully more than two people respond.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie Weapons (Zach Cregger, August 8, 2025).

I like you both but I will tell you who is wrong by the end of the week.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie Weapons (Zach Cregger, August 8, 2025).

That seems to be the general consensus. I need to pad out my worst of the year list, though.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie Weapons (Zach Cregger, August 8, 2025).

I will watch this and the new Bigelow after I finish Super Mario Galaxy.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie Weapons (Zach Cregger, August 8, 2025).

How does it compare to Barbarian?

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie Weapons (Zach Cregger, August 8, 2025).

There are over 14k posts in the Marvel thread.

Is this worth seeing?

Morrissey replied to the thread Video Game Nintendo.

Rayman Legends is a platformer that needs a sequel.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie The Mummy 4 (TBA).

I hope the CGI is better.

Morrissey replied to the thread In Memoriam.

A ruthless butcher and we are cursed with his wretched daughter. The world is better today.

Morrissey replied to the thread Entertainment Forum General Chat Thread.

The problem with Hot Ones is that wings are best served with either mild buffalo or barbeque sauce and then washed down with a nice soda. No need to suffer through heat.

Morrissey replied to the thread Entertainment Forum General Chat Thread.

Some people have a dislike toward video essays but they make sense. When talking about a visual art form it helps to actually show the work. Nerdwriter and Broey Deschanel are very good. RedLetterMedia still does interesting work.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie The Mastermind (Kelly Reichardt, October 17, 2025).

Reichardt has some of the best stealth comedy in the field today. The debriefing between the robbers only to cut back to the kid vomiting is master class.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie The Mastermind (Kelly Reichardt, October 17, 2025).

I know period settings are expensive but the Pepsi product placement was pretty extreme. The cop might as well have turned to the camera and winked.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie The Mastermind (Kelly Reichardt, October 17, 2025).

Minor Reichardt, but fun. The audience was definitely surprised.

Morrissey replied to the thread Bugonia (Yorgos Lanthimos, 2025).

I have been out of the loop for a few weeks. Blue Moon today was my first time at a theater in a while. I need to get to Frankenstein, this, The Mastermind, the Panahi film, and the Guadagnino one. Maybe the Springsteen movie if I can get my blood pressure down.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie Blue Moon (Richard Linklater, October 17, 2025).

The funniest part of the movie is that they left Hawke's head and torso the same size so it doesn't match up with the short height at all and it feels like someone walking on their knees.

Morrissey replied to the thread Bugonia (Yorgos Lanthimos, 2025).

The first section of Kinds of Kindness is his best American film.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie Blue Moon (Richard Linklater, October 17, 2025).

Linklater's best in a while.

Morrissey replied to the thread TV Show VEEP (HBO).

Veep might have spawned from Palin but that character really feels like Kamala Harris now.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie The Beatles - A Four-Film Cinematic Event (Sam Mendes, April 2028).

"Could possibly".

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie The Beatles - A Four-Film Cinematic Event (Sam Mendes, April 2028).

Ringo could possibly suffer the indignity of being the only Beatle alive and his movie doing the worst financially.

Morrissey replied to the thread Movie The Beatles - A Four-Film Cinematic Event (Sam Mendes, April 2028).

Studios strategically plan out release dates so as to not conflict with a film that might be similar but they are going to release four films at once?
