This list is in correct order.

 

Sidney Lumet was a master. Could do so much so well.

 

Wow the “highest rated” on Letterboxd is absolutely fucked

 

the second highest rated film of all time is....cowboy bebop?

 

The making of the final season of Breaking Bad is above The Godfather. Harry Styles “Behind the Album” is 30

 

Letterboxd definitely has some weird trends. I think it will balance out as time goes on because there is a tremendous bias toward films that were recent when the site became big.

 

watching Moneyball

got distracted by the This Will Destroy You track and zoned out to that during the baseball numbers talking with Jonah
hey, Spike Jonze
oh, same TWDY track again?
Brad is on Ted Lasso-level shoe game. did he inspire Sudekis?
i still have no idea what any of these numbers mean
is round three of The Mighty Rio Grande making me have feelings about Chris Pratt playing baseball?

 

Those are all mostly good movies though?

 

What makes them a “green flag” movie, where if someone likes them, you assume they’re a person worthy of trusting?

 

If you watch movies with very clear moral compasses that condemn bad guys explicitly, you can be trusted.

 

Hahaha oh I see why this tweet is lame now lol.

 

People are going to get mad at this, but someone's favorite movie or book usually tells you at least something about them. Music is too genre and era specific to have the same result.

 

I hate twitter more with each passing day, no one knows how to look at things with a critical lens, sad!

 

Whose favorite movies are The Joker and Fight Club who aren't 19

 

Fight club very good movie

 

It’s fun that we’ve gotten to the time when people are missing the point of Fight Club from the other side too.

 

Whenever I meet a new person, I always try to tease out their opinion on The Great Mouse Detective

 

Big fan

 

I inherently trust you

 

that movie rules. just watched it recently for the millionth time.

 

I've been wanting to watch The Black Cauldron again. It's been at least 250 years since I've seen it, but I remember really enjoying it. Is it a jam, or am I misremembering?

 

With something like Fight Club, there is the message that the movie intends to push but also how well the movie is at conveying that message. That is where it misses the mark.

 

An interesting and informative thread of just how bad Blockbuster was for film. People my age have nostalgia for it because it was where we got our movies from, but their policies had tremendous censorship effects.
