Obsession: Bear is an asshole

Sheep Detective: good kids movie. Not the life changing movie the hype made it seem

Mandarin: pretty simple story

Roofman: more a light hearted drama than a comedy like it was advertised as

Took my first grader. Fun whodunit. Maybe a little older would have been ideal. Get an adult beverage and the jokes are funnier.

Backrooms was good, creepy fun.

Backrooms, Obsession, and Iron Lung all being good and doing well on tiny budgets should mark the turning point of studios starting to work with Youtubers en masse.

Those guys have had to be relentlessly entertaining or they’d get zero views, and are also used to working on a shoestring budget. In all seriousness, its a transition point that could save Hollywood from itself.

Here’s a top CAA agent echoing the point: Hollywood is at an inflection point.

Scary Movie 6 had some fun moments but was bad. As opposed to the Naked Gun movie which had fun moments and was also good.

He-man reminds me of the Dungeon and Dragons movie that came out like two years ago: very similar vibes. Jared Leto is a terrible human but he actually plays Skeletor really well here. The rest of it is solid but not really memorable.

The Drama was great. The twist early completely changed the tone and Patterson and Zendaya are great actors/solid supporting cast as well.

Anaconda is Jack Black’s 2010s Adam Sandler “lets get the crew together and get paid to do random shit” project.

Obsession was the best horror movie I’ve seen since The Lighthouse. I think Inde Navarrette’s performance is gonna go down as an all timer.

I Like Movies: very good coming of age indie comedy drama. On Prime. Takes place in 2003 - it’ll hit with ~40 year olds

I’ll watch any movie that doesn’t have Timothée Chalamet in it. Go Spurs!
