    I watched Alien Romulus last night. It was pretty meh. I appreciated some of the other movies in the universe that covered new ground, but Romulus was basically

    Tap for spoiler

    "trapped in a spaceship with aliens," which been pretty well covered by the series so far.

      Agreed, it was just fine. I found the fan service callbacks to the previous movies pretty distracting and unnecessary.

        I really enjoyed it but fuck me the callbacks really took away from it. Like it’s a decent movie, just stand on your own. We’ve all seen Aliens.

    I just watched the Stutterer short film, really well written and directed, it made me shed a small tear at the end 🥲

      Do you mind me asking where you saw that? I’ve a heap of shorts in my watchlist but can never find any of them anywhere.

    Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, not as good as the first one, but not as bad either.

      A worthy sequel…

      • Foni@lemm.ee ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Yes, worthy may be a good word to describe it.

    El Hoyo 1 and 2. Not sure of the English name, The Platform?

    Watched the first a few years back and quite liked it, went back and watched the first again for a refresh and then the second the next day. Quite enjoyed it although the second left more questions again xD

    Also watched Inside Out 1 and 2. They were alright I guess, some humorous moments. The first was definitely stronger than the second.

    We got a new TV last week so we had to test it out with:

    A New Hope

    Dune (pt 1 & 2)

    Rocky Horror Picture Show

      Nice selection!

        Thanks! We’ll probably put on more spoopy stuff in the coming days. I’d love to see Alien: Romulus, but I’m not paying $20 to rent it. I’ve tried to torrent things, but either I’m doing something wrong, or the vpn I use is useless because my isp always sees what I’m downloading. Like, the c&d emails they send cite exactly what I download every time no matter what I do, so I’ve given up.

    Alien Romulus

    I really liked it. After not really following and not even watching the trailer I saw it still running in a local cinema (no 3D) and decided to watch it on a whim. It was everything I had hoped for

    Watched Barbarian after having it in my list for a while. It was VERY annoying seeing the main character make one bad decision after another. But somehow it was still a really good movie.

    Coraline with my daughter. Killing them softly by myself. I had seen it before but the details had been lost to time. Pretty decent flick.
