Alita: Battle Angel.
The film looks stupid because they gave the main character giant anime eyes.
In the context of the film it makes sense and I think the look is meant to mirror the anime it is from... but for the film it still makes the film look stupid. Now the film itself is far from perfect, there is at least one storyline that is utter dogshit. However! The film ultimately was solid.
Sadly it ends setting up future films that will never happen, but I think it's still enjoyable overall.
How comes they won't be making more?
Because no one saw the first one.
Now some very influential people who were involved in the first one want to make a second one, so maybe just maybe it will happen one day... But I doubt it.
I saw it. There's at least two of us.
Three
It still looks goofy as f
Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time 🤷🏿♀️
The Lost City with Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatum, and Daniel Radcliffe. It seems like a tropey romance-action flick, but is more a parody of genre clichés. The writing, acting, and humour are pretty good.
We were having a movie night in our neighborhood a few years back where we got a bedsheet and a cheap projector. We hooked it up to a laptop to project a movie on someone's garage for the neighborhood kids.
We ended up projecting The Lego Movie and most of the kids lost interest about half an hour in - and were falling asleep and ready to go home.
I'll be damned if it wasn't one of the best animated movies I've ever seen. I sent my wife home with our youngest just so I could stay and finish the movie.
Everything is awesome.
Lego movie is brilliant. It's not a kid's movie. It's so good.
Real steel. Its about boxing robots
I watched it yesterday for the 2nd time (first time with my son). We laugh, we cried, we danced, we were shouting out loud and watched final battle standing on our feet. I unironically think it's an excellent sport movie.
Last year's The Beekeper starring Jason Statham was honestly the best action movie I've seen in years. Phenomenal movie
Alien vs. Predator... Lance Henrickson and a cast of nobodies with an intersting plot. I went in expecting full-on crap and got a real banger instead.
Honestly, princess bride. I'm usually not all that into rom com type movies, but princess bride is a masterpiece
Hey, that's the metaplot of the movie!
Barbie (2023)
I thought it would be a parody of Barbie but its actually a parody of Mattel and shows how men can be confused in this world. It's a real movie for all the bros out there. Its the kind of movie I'll watch again later because its good.
Just saw this a few months ago. And gotta agree. It's a solid flick. Nothing crazy ambitious, but told a story that seems pretty haunting in the past few months.
Haunting?
I am trying not to sound disrespectful. But Allow my to gesture vaguely to current events.
Swiss Army Man - Daniel Redcliffe with farting as a superpower. Sounds ridiculous but really fun to watch.
Daniel Radcliffe while dead the entire movie flexes his ass cheeks as a superpower.
Mean Girls (2004) a masterpiece
A Knight's Tale. Not only is it a good movie but it was my introduction to Paul Bettany and Alan Tudyk and they were brilliant in it.
I just can't get past the dance scene.
I love it. Starts off cringe but then once the Golden Years kicks in it's magical.
Alan Tudyk is a gem! There's a scene that I love from a doc about the voice acting on Moana. Cuts to Tudyk doing chicken sounds (he played the chicken), when he slyly looks into the camera and says "I went to Julliard".
"Trudging!"
"I will fong you. I will fong you until your entrails are your extrails! I will—pain! Lots of pain!"
I do believe I'll be watching this movie again today. 😁

Dude, Where's My Car?
I thought it was gonna be a dumb stoner movie, but it is actually amazing and hilarious.
While simultaneously being a dumb stoner movie. Don't tell me it wasn't, cause I still am!
Alien Resurrection is low key great and philosophically engaging movie.
The Adventures of Baron Von Munchausen, it's like a Monty Python movie but with American actors and an evil Robin Williams.
The recent Dungeons and Dragons.
'Upgrade' is an excellent sifi B movie.

Clue - A movie based on a board game sounds terrible, but it's really funny.
For more of a movie that visually looks bad.
Primer - Very low budget time travel movie that gets better every time you watch it.
After the second watch, you should read the hours and hours of content covering the time loops and paradoxes, and then watch it three or four more times to begin to grasp what you read.
