Upon reading some of the reviews, I've decided not to watch it any time soon.

don't let rotten tomatoes cloud your judgement

Alright. Fair enough.

I suppose I should be watching these trees outside my window ...





... as they might explode.

Just posting this here because if I post it on the discussion I wanted it would sound rude.

Watched RBG last night. Looks like she had fortunate and fulfilling life, with a wonderful marriage and family, and a shining career. Truly inspiring, and shows that one person can make a difference.

No, Mr Bond, I expect you to die at a ripe old age.

:death: :flower:

In honor of Sir Sean Connery 1930-2020 passing away this morning, I'm spending Spook Night watching 5 (out of my top 10 favorite) Sean Connery films in chronological order:

• From Russia With Love, 1963
• The Man Who Would Be King, 1975
• Robin and Marian, 1976
• Outland, 1981
• Name of the Rose, 1986

"Shaken, not stirred," of course.

:up:

Anyone seen One Cut of the Dead?

Since I quite possibly watched more new movies this year than all of my previous years combined, I figured I should offer the top movies I watched (for the first time) this year. No order:

• Aguirre, the Wrath of God - Werner Herzog (1972)
• The Spirit of the Beehive - Victor Erice (1973)
• Once Upon A Time in the West - Sergio Leone (1968)
• L'Eclisse - Michelangelo Antonioni (1962)
• The Passion of Joan of Arc - Carl Theodor Dreyer (1928)
• Harakiri - Masaki Kobayashi (1962)
• Napoleon - Abel Gance (1928)
• Ran - Akira Kurosawa (1985)
• Portrait of a Lady on Fire - Céline Sciamma (2019)
• The Apu Trilogy - Satyajit Ray (consists of Pather Panchali, 1955; Aparajito, 1956; Apu Sansar, 1959)
• Ali: Fear Eats the Soul - Rainer Werner Fassbinder (1974)

I've become hopelessly addicted to this youtube channel of this dude and his buddy "Poison" who traverse across Europe as hobos:

Couple struggling with relationship get stuck in a musical. Hillarious.

The monsoon rains on the parched desert.
The smell of hot, wet mesquite trees is intoxicating.

Watching and listening.

Nerd Fest UK:

My inspiration came from What's the Mashup? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmnSm...) but I didn't manage 100! The idea was to do the same for movies from the Golden Age – meaning no title later than 1953 (although there is one at the end.) Oh, and none of these clips was sped up or slowed down.

Turn on subtitles to find out the film names.
