The Last Movie You Saw?

[KoV]

^wait that cheap-looking 'remake' from...last year? 2022? was a musical?

They turned the 2004 movie into a Broadway show several years ago, and the 2023 movie was an adaptation of the Broadway musical.

Kingdom (2019 Japanese movie set in the Warring States era). Mainly watched it because it was on Netflix and didn't look like their usual slop but very distinctly like a Japanese theatrical-release movie, which it was. But yeah, it was...not good and I don't get the point of having the lone female character in the entire movie be dressed like a life sized ancient-era plushie I was high as a kite and the costume just made me laugh (not even joking she's dressed as an owl all the way through)

I typically hate (or just generally avoid) horror movies, but everything I've heard about the new Nosferatu makes it sound like a must-see.

Robert Eggers is to filmmaking what Alexander McQueen was to high fashion. Such a masterclass of substance brimming, seething beneath all the brilliant imagery.

Like his The VVitch, hIs versions of Nosferatu instantly gives gothic fairy tale. But I get the horror vibes most are feeling. (BTW, couldn’t keep my eyes off Ralph Ineson; his stature, his voice, his body. YSL-era Stefano Pilati reminds me a lot of him.)
