What movies have you watched this week?

Finding Nemo and Finding Dory. Like three times a piece. My two year old has a new favorite "show" of them.

"Daddy! Baby fish! Nemo Dory!"

Honey, how about Bluey or Muppets or Mr Rogers?

"No! Baby fish!"

Holy shit Marlin is just an asshole. So is Hank. I mean yes, ultimately they both do the right thing, but the way they put down Dory, even just casually during the "nice" coded scenes is rough.

Star Wars eps 1-6 over past two weeks

Ford v Ferrari, and I really enjoyed it. It had the right amount of corporate backstabbing being out smarted by the main character. Not a feel good flick but it had a lot of good racing scenes and it was exciting.

Also watched the last 30 minutes of The Revenant which I had started but not finished.. that movie is brutal. And as my second watch-through, I'm still not entirely sure what the take away thoughts are. It's just survival and people are awful to each other. I'm not sure there's a lesson or reward at the end. Maybe I missed the whole point.

Me and the children l take care of we managed to see spider man 3

Blue Valentine (2010)
This beautifully raw film looks at a relationship in stages juxtapositional. It's euphoric, passionate, morose, and hopeful. It's the nature of love in real life and for most of us, will cut close to the heart. It's glorious.

That Thing You Do! (1996)
A classic tale of the 50-60s music industry done in the typical fun biopic style so much that I believed it was a real band. It is romanticist light fun and better than most biopics.

Terrified (2017)
An admirable attempt at the genre but falls to the classic pitfalls by the midpoint and logic goes out the window. The lingering scenes with the child was a clear high point of the film.
@kux@lemm.ee I finally watched it.

Vikram Vedha (2017)
I was recommended this as a film that tackles morality. It did not fulfill the promise as its characters and lessons are juvenile but it is an average action film with above par story for Kollywood (and Bollywood).

Elevation (2024)
Remove believable characters, modify the script, and you are now watching a (very) poor version of A Quiet Place. It fails on all fronts and is filled with tropes done poorly, which saddens me as I like Morena Baccarin.

Mostly Star Wars movies. Today I watched two movies with Harrison Ford: The Force Awakens and Captain America 4
