Movies That Didn’t Actually Happen • Page 200

Damn. Still need to watch Mitchells Versus the Machines. Forgot about that.

 

5 star movie for me

 

Didn’t love buster scruggs, the meyerowitz story is good

 

I also think Roma is fine.

 

So much fun!

 

Buster was pretty solid, Roma was not my thing at all

 

Yeah, I appreciate the craft of “Roma,” but it was not for me.

 

My girlfriend and I have a semi regular “rainy day Sunday movies that didn’t happen” watch and this is what we stumbled on today:



We are both stoned and the moderate jump scare that they have before the intro credit scene had us laughing so hard when it shouldn’t have been funny

 

I saw that tweet earlier and it made me think when I was a kid, my dad was friends with a guy who owned his own mom and pop video rental store so he would get movie posters sent to him to hang up. One time he gave my dad a bunch of rolled up posters of movies he took down to replace. The one movie poster I remember unfurling was this forgotten Steve Martin movie. I had the literal movie poster in my possession but had no desire to hang up. To this day, as much as I love Steve Martin popping up in anything, I never had a desire to watch this.

 

I saw a clip on YouTube of the part in IT: Chapter 2 where the CGI Paul Bunyan statue attacks the kid from Stranger Things, and it really made me wish we got the Cary Fukunaga version that was coming before Andy Muschietti took over. Big time.

the first part from 2017 was pretty good, but bad CGI isn't super scary, and Muschietti really leans on the bad CGI moving fast with loud noises trick a few too many times, whereas I feel like we would have gotten something cerebral and terrifying from Fukunaga - a version of IT on film that could hold its own against the book. I'm not sure if I ever even finished watching the second film.

 

From my memory, the way they defeated IT was pretty underwhelming and I too was turned off by too much CGI

I don’t recall that Animorphs book.

 

Besides Morgan Fairchild, none of those are real people.

 

Not to dunk on anyone that didn’t know the allegations because it’s hard to keep up with everything, but probably for the best that Fukunaga, an accused sexual harasser and groomer, wasn’t given access to the cast.

 

stacy keach!

 

Stacy Keach is way more legit... Haha

 

The 30 best Netflix original movies

 

The Irishman at 10 is insane
