Finding New Shit on TV

[sdoyel]

I started watching Murder Mountain last night. Pretty good.

Mrs 99 and I watched "I Care a Lot" on Netflix. Crazy movie. There are no good guys.

we enjoyed it quite a bit

[jhawks99]

Good movie. Hard to say that I enjoyed it. None of the characters had any redeeming qualities. At the end I was like, who should win this?

[TDub]

I liked the first 75% of the movie. The last 25% sucked.

Yep.

[jhawks99]

Really? I thought it was good. I kept wondering how it was gonna end. She kills him and then goes to jail, he kills her and goes to jail. Someone gets away with it. Who is gonna win? Who do I want to win? None of the characters have any redeeming qualities. I think it ended about as well as it could have.

It just got unbelievably ridiculous after she made it out of the car that went off the cliff...after having a fifth of vodka pumped into her stomach.

I also didnt like that the story turned to make her out to be this badass action hero. Yes, none of them were good people. She spent her life fucking over vulnerable lonely old people....now all the sudden shes jean claude van damme?

[jhawks99]

Yeah, I get that. Thanks for ruining it for me.

Getting out of the car was hokey and no where near believable.

Rewatched Cool Hand Luke on Netflix the other night. Basically Shawshank with a shitty ending. But more realistic unfortunately. Couldn't get his mind right.

Lol. Sorry 99. I did enjoy it up to that point tho.

You want a really, I mean REALLY, good movie to watch on Amazon Prime right now?

Sound of Metal.

Don’t look up what’s it is about.
Just watch.
I dunno if it is up for Oscars but it’s better than Parasite so I sure hope so.

[pdub]

Looked it up.
It’s nominated for several awards, justly so.

[CrimsonNBlue]

Lol. Really good, but Jesus.

[pdub]

It’s a better movie. For me.
Movies of course are art and are subjective.
Parasite was really good—and I know the intention/metaphor of the ending but the part where they go to the guy living in the building/basement for years didn’t do it for me.

[pdub]

And as both movies were Oscar nominations ( best picture ) and have the same rotten tomato critic and user scores ( looked em up ) your “Jesus” sure seems pretty over the top.

Kinda like Parasite.

[pdub]

Also Wolfwalkers >> Soul.

[Overlander]

Sound of Metal was really, really good.

Nomadland was amazing.

And I was happy to see My Octopus Teacher win best Documentary

[CrimsonNBlue]

Nomadland was amazing.

Correct winner, weak year, though. COVID and all.

[TDub]

Watched a documentary tonight called "Trapper Jake" pretty dry, most of you probably would hate it. I thought it was great.
