Super Sweet Movie Discussion Thread

@Locksteady You should watch Ad Astra and The Lighthouse both phenomenal movies with him as the leading man or sharing that role and he kills it in each one.

I think what he planned was, do the easy big cash grab at the beginning of his career, then drop bombs on people for the remainder.

ETA: Sorry not Ad Astra, I meant High Life. Although Ad Adtra is great too.

That’s the exact same thing the InterWebz were saying in 2007 when Heath was cast as the Joker. And he had “Brokeback” on his record.

Well, think about how most of his stuff was Romance comedies before that, that's a serious movie where he had to play a gay guy. Decent amount of range then.

Pattinson, it's a nope for me, even if he's good here, he's marked for life.

Dude was 20 when he signed on to it. He's got a few interviews where he said being in that series ruined big budget stuff for him, hence the shift to art films and what not.

Only reason he signed on to do Batman is because the writers are focused more on the detective/intelligence aspect of the character, and this is a one off film(AFAIK).

I started watching the lighthouse today cause, this thread (obviously). I haven't seen the Twilight movies except the first one.

So far the cinematography in the Lighthouse is a work of art, I didnt even recognize Dufoe at first, and Patterson is rad.

I'm not a big horror movie fan, but I've got all the lights on, a 5.5" phone screen, 48 hours before the rental expires, and so far, so good.

Four nearly back-to-back recommendations in this thread to see it and it's a horror flick?

I'll shoot it up the movie bucket list and post my reaction soon.

I'm glad I watched the Lighthouse. Thanks for the idea.
It's a picturesque setting-- that alone made it worth it for me- ocean and whatnot. It was a good soundtrack. Patterson, and Dufoe are excellent. Liked seeing what a Lightkeep might have done in the late 1800s as a task - my favorite part, actually. Worth it. Thanks.

@Locksteady Although Ad Adtra is great too.

Ad Astra was pure unadulterated garbage. That movie was incoherent and completely ridiculous.
Beat your face.

6 Undergound. Fun cast. Basically Ocean's 11 but for Coups. 7/10

Ad Astra? Unadulterated garbage? Incoherent and ridiculous? What kind of jenkem have you been huffing on? I like your posts but you need to fix yourself and self reflect on the absolute garbage taste you have.

Guy Pearce and Pattinson in the Rover. Well worth a look.

Watched Bloodsport tonight for the first time in a while, I had forgotten how cheesy it was but it's still a damn fine beer and pizza late night movie.

The sudden ominous downturn in the music whenever Chong Li starts to dominate his matches never grows old.

Fun fact: If you continue your trip down memory lane and play the original 'Mortal Kombat', you will notice clear signs of its direct inspiration from 'Bloodsport'.

Ad ASStra is a movie made by an EMO tween that didn't get enough love. I would rather masturbate with a cheesegrater than rewatch that abomination of scifi. If you had to frame how an aborted fetus would look if it survived, that would be this movie. This was not scifi. It was a hate crime against film. I need to blow 37 dicks to get the taste of this trash out of my mouth.

I saw Netflix original movie Project Power and the best part about it? The end credits

Feature (movie)-length documentary about Desert One:

Must have been a lot of trial and error to figure 37 Dicks, instead of 40 or 35. Might as well go with 74, being proactive; just in case you get more trash in your mouth.

Where do I start wih this page?

Ah, yes, another pour of Elijah Craig.

Until then, you're all cunts according to my Aussie friends.

Carry on.

There is plenty of shit out there, and I'd agree that it wasn't Oscar worthy, but it was entertaining and definitely watchable. Maybe Cuties is more up your alley?

I don’t know what movie you saw but clearly it was not Power. Power makes The Texas chainsaw massacre 2 look like Citizen Kane
