Same! I need to watch more movies.
'Objects In Space'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Same! I need to watch more movies.
Note, in addition to Dope and Tangerine (as Vonnie mentioned), Bande de filles (Girlhood) and Phoenix are available on Netflix streaming.
I need to clear some time and see Tangerine, I missed it on the festival circuit.
I loved The Witch, Vonnie.
For those of you who saw Deadpool, I'd like to point out that today is International Women's Day.
You know, in case you needed a suggestion of how to celebrate.
Is it heretical to say I didn't really like Zoolander? (We watched it for the first time last night.) I didn't expect much, and expected mostly stupid-funny (which I am a big fan of when it's done well; c.f., Dude, Where's My Car?), but it was just mostly stupid.
Though it did make me want to watch the Starsky and Hutch movie, so there's that.
t edit Oh! I forgot David Bowie! That was good.
We saw 10 Cloverfield Lane yesterday. We all really liked it. It's a very small, intimate movie, even though it's also a monster movie. Very well done--it has a way of constantly surprising you in new ways, I think by understanding and deftly avoiding horror/monster tropes. And John Goodman RULES.
I just got back from it, Scrappy! Yes to everything you said, and also Mary Elizabeth Winstead rules. She does some great face-acting in this movie, and her character is resourceful as fuck.
I told my mom she might enjoy it, but my nose is too out of joint about them slapping the Cloverfield name on Valencia/The Cellar at the last minute as a blatant cash grab. Stick to Star Wars JJ, it seems like you're actually doing things right for that franchise somehow.

I hope all the Matrix/Zack Snyder slo-mo is just for the trailer and not in the movie.
