Msbelle, I figured we can find some things online, but I still prefer the movie theatre whenever possible.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!
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.

I really loved Free Solo, but then I'm a climber. It helps if you know Honnold survives while you're watching, I think.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, I was glad I'd seen him doing press for the film's release. Still very stressful to watch though!
This year's crop of shorts was SO dark. Even the animated ones were mostly bummers!

Bohemian Rhapsody was just not very good.

Right?? I walked out of the screening with three other people and we all agreed it was an okay by-the-numbers biopic with a pretty good performance at the center. It was FINE, but not Win All The Things amazing.

I sat down to watch Snow White and the Huntsman tonight, and I know it's a fairytale, and I'm still utterly gobsmacked at the idea that 50 heavy cavalry in a fucking line could gallop across a beach and hope to capture a fortified castle.
Do directors on these movies never hire a tactician?

I was more impressed by the evil queen's wardrobe in that movie.

That was pretty impressive!
I was also impressed by the lineup of British actors playing the dwarfs: Ray Winstone, Ian McShane, and Bob Hoskins...

I would like to keep up a steady movie watching schedule now that the Oscars are over. I am creating a list of all nominated films that I have never seen. Right now I am focusing on Best Picture nominees and I am starting the list with my birth year just because I have to start somewhere (1928 seemed really really daunting). I'm not even going to put all the years on the list to start. I have 1971 - 1975 and 2012-2015 thus far and it's already 43 titles. If anyone wants to join me, let me know and I'll send you the Google Doc as it is now, we can always modify it to indicate who has seen what. I may reach out to a few of you for direction on where to start and I may be eliminating some due to problematic people unless there is some way to watch where they would not benefit in anyway (if the film is up on kanopy do you think there are royalty payments based on views?).

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'd like to see your Google docs, if only to copy it for myself. I can't even keep with TV these days, as much as I want to watch more movies I just don't see it happening.
