What can I say, I'm a Daniel Day Lewis fan

JOHN WOO DOUBLE FEATURE:

The Killer (1989)

Hard Boiled (1992)

These are legitimately two of the coolest action movies ever made. John Woo is amazing. Chow Yun Fat is fucking cool.

John Carpenter’s Dark Star (1974), his debut, featuring a spaceship terrorized by a murderous beach ball:

A notable influence on Alien btw.

I can't make Friday events, but everybody has to see UHF with Weird Al. I watched it for the first time a couple months ago and the first 10 minutes had me dying. It's just dumb, deadpan slapstick.

Perfect Blue

If we're still in an apocalyptic mood next week, may I suggest *When the Wind Blows * and Barefoot Gen ?

Still think we should watch the room sometime. I'll bring the spoons.

How about some pure ideology? I present Animal Farm (1954), the animated film of Orwell's book, literally funded by the CIA:

Jason and the Argonauts (1963), the magnum opus of effects wizard Ray Harryhausen:

Features a fight against a group of stop-motion skeletons that you may have already watched on its own; was the inspiration for Golden Axe, among other things.

king of the hill still comes off as like sorta reactionary bigoted and such but like in this weird way where they're not promoting it and trying to be progressive, but still stuck in like the 90s/early 2000s where it comes off as making a mockery, despite what's likely good intentions. i have to just say it's an artifact of it's time, but it's still kind of fucked up. just sometimes. maybe that's what they had to do to push shit forward at the time, i don't know, there's just some episodes where it's like 'this is pretty fucked up' despite the message usually being "don't be a dick."

Man Bites Dog (1992), stylish French cult classic about a group of documentary makers filming a serial killer:

The director once threw a pie at Bill Gates.

Life Stinks/ Falling Down. Early 90s LA urban decay double feature.

here i am wondering where the fuck is @Mabbz

1)No Men Beyond This Point (2015 lib comedy)

2)Repo Man (80's dramady - great punk rock soundtrack)

3)The Andromeda Strain (70's sci fi )
