I really liked that Godzilla movie, but have no desire to watch it again. I liked a lot of the cinematography.
It's one of those things for me where the in-the-moment experience was fantastic and I don't think a rewatch could recapture that so I'd rather just hang onto the memory of it
Also, related to the last conversation topic, when I saw it in theaters a few white folks behind me would crack up every time Ken Watanabe said "Gojira" and it was infuriating

I have that with a lot of movies. It's why I've never rewatched Get Out or Fury Road. I got over it to rewatch Logan, which I liked just as much a second time.
I liked Fury Road more the second time, I think. I wasn't quite on board with it as much as everyone else the first time.

I will watch Fury Road as much as you wanna throw it at me, but yeah, Get Out is so harrowing that I'd have to think twice about watching it again even though it was great

Yeah in general a movie has to really connect with me to want to see it more than once. Into the Spider-Verse is the first time it's happened in a while

I am watching For a Few Dollars More
I think my favorite thing about it is that Leone felt the need to put another guy who thinks Clint Eastwood getting beaten up is the funniest goddamn thing he's ever seen in this movie
Variety has confirmed that four Oscars will be presented during commercial breaks of the 91st Academy Awards.
The awards will be best cinematography, film editing, live action short, and makeup and hairstyling. The winning speeches will be edited into a package to be aired later in the telecast.
What if instead of just CGI-ing scarily too-real anthropomorphic animal people, the roles were all played by people but they were wearing costuming to represent the animals from the original?
Watching Fellowship of the Ring after a shitty Monday at work
Love this damn movie. Every time I watch it I'm like "oh yeah this is awesome"
So much good about that movie, but I think my favorite segment may be the whole Moria sequence. Both the quiet parts (Gandalf and Frodo's conversation, the reading from the book, poor Pippin fucking up in front of everyone) and the awesomely bombastic (the balrog, Aragorn surfing a goddamn stone pillar, "YOU! CANNOT! PASS!"), all of it.

It's weird to me that there are people who regularly rewatch LotR. Not because I look down on doing so, or don't think it's a perfectly fine thing for a fan to do. It's weird because it's something I was involved with, and it's kinda odd both understanding why people would do that with something I, personally, contributed to.
I don't watch the films all that often myself, although I'm sure I'd still love them. To an extent, though, I don't remember them all that well. Like, I recognise shots and memes and that one scene of Viggo breaking his toe which seems to come up in 'best bloopers that ended in final cut' montages, but mostly when I think on the movies, I remember standing on that goddamn wall with no safety rail. Eating in a white pavilion mess tent with 60 other extras in elf armor that didn't bend at the waist, so all the benches are half empty except for the handful of Rohirrum while the rest of us ate standing. Driving up to the quarry set in rental shuttle from the mountains, their ski & snowboard racks strapped with swords and bows and shields. The jeers and insults of the Uruks, who did not mingle with the elf extras, and instead fostered a friendly rivalry that echoed the movie - a non-serious antagonism between the groups for shits and giggles. Watching Viggo fight Sala in Beserker get up so I'd know when I was supposed to run past, or return to my mark for the next take. Viggo handing out water. That one gay extra with the long red hair who was totally into me. And a dozen other moments that are weird and wonderous and just difficult to put into words, but happened.
It's strange, wonderful, unexpected moment of my life and to still see it part of the ongoing pop culture zeitgeist continues to just be occasionally startling and surprising to me.
I liked Fury Road more the second time, I think. I wasn't quite on board with it as much as everyone else the first time.
There was so much going on in Fury Road that I feel like a 2nd viewing is almost mandatory if a person liked the first viewing even a bit. Being able to take a deep breath a second time and really look at everything on screen was just an amazing treat after the crazy show that is the first time seeing that movie.
thankfully, i was only in jersey girl: a movie no one would ever choose to rewatch
Likewise, the only time I've ever done anything as an extra it was Chain Reaction. In a single day of filming I decided that Keanu was a really nice guy and Morgan Freeman was kind of a dick, and it's been interesting to see both get more and more confirmation over time.
I watched the movie once to confirm that even with freeze frame you can't spot me or any of my friends at all, and that one time was enough Chain Reaction for a lifetime.
Two towers is always my favorite LOTR. If only for the charge of the king and then gandalf showing up like a baller with reinforcements, but the ents going to war is also really strong.
Basically just the release of all the stress the two movies leading up the heroes being pinned down running out of options and then all just let out in two climatic awesome battles.
Plus Two Towers has if its not a direct army of darkness ref, an accidental one.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
I was going to see The Lego Movie 2 on Saturday, but decided against it due to not wanting a theater filled with children. More so wanting to avoid crowds rather than "Oh god, why are there children here to see this movie based upon Lego?!"
So I caught an 8:30 pm show tonight. On the largest screen. The only one in the room.
It's a shame that it was a disappointment, because it's a pretty great way to watch a movie.
the idea that James Spader from Stargate went on to make Age of Ultron kept amusing me, so I re-watched it tonight.
For the most part I couldn't make the connection, but towards the end I did hear a bit of Dr. Jackson in,
"you know, with the benefit of hindsight" and a couple of his other lines after Thor, Vision, and Iron Man damage him.
Noticed a couple of little things, though, which relate to Infinity War and Endgame
specifically the term endgame is used by Stark; which makes Dr. Strange's line resonate a little more. Rogers claims they'll win "together" which gets called-back at the end, but also seems to apply to Infinity War, where there's a strong case to be made that they lost because of the aftermath of Civil War.
Is it really a comeback if he never left in the first place?
He basically went quiet for a year after the allegations first bubbled up after Bright
I don't know if that even counts. That's a vacation by Hollywood standards.
It was a pretty intentional move, he went completely silent on all social media and had no work announced after years of having like 6 scripts going at any given moment
Dude was intentionally letting everything blow over and now is trying to come back

If he was going to do that coming back with a #metoo movie is both something I can understand but also the stupidest possible thing he could have done.

Give me a six minute standoff with ecstasy of gold playing as Godzilla stares own the three heads before breathing them down
The score is still really god damned good for "we are going on an adventure" type music
Yeah I went to the premiere showing and you could feel the entire theater holding their breath as it charged, it was amazing

I haven't seen Jersey Girl at all
Should I watch it just to look out for you
Likewise, the only time I've ever done anything as an extra it was Chain Reaction. In a single day of filming I decided that Keanu was a really nice guy and Morgan Freeman was kind of a dick, and it's been interesting to see both get more and more confirmation over time.
