Divemaster, you're gonna believe this - I asked around on reddit about the film, and they pointed me in the right direction.
Do you know which film it was? Why Don't You Play In Hell? LMAOOOOO

Ah! That is funny. What threw me off was that the subterfuge is not a music video, and it's not so much that they want to cover it up, but for...other reasons. They're not trying to disguise anything. But, yeah, I'm laughing at myself (elephant in the room and all that)

Good Boys:
Viewed this a week ago. Just as the movie started ~35 developmentally disabled young adults came in with there chaperones. Initially they were loud and spurting out for no reason and I figured they would ruin the movie viewing experience for me. A strange thing happened, they settled down, and began to enjoy the movie, laughing at many of the funny scenes. Their laughter became a bit infectious and everyone had a great time. They actually improved my viewing experience.
The movie is quite funny (though very predictable). I give it 4/6 Beers on the RFSRS.

Saw IT Chapter Two (big review incoming) and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood which was really good. The ending was not only hilarious, but beautiful.

It Chapter 2:
A letdown from chapter 1. At 169 minutes the movie plods along. The best scenes are where the group is together, but in a waste of time, each is sent on a private journey to obtain a totem. The only one that works (and it does work exceptionally well) is Bev's visit with an elderly lady who resides in Bev's childhood residence. Several false endings, and constant stroboscopic flashes come close to ruining the ending.
Sometimes more is not more.
3.5/6 beers on the RFSRS.
My breakdown of IT Chapter Two, which I rated three stars.

I just saw The Happytime Murders. I think this was pretty poorly received, getting just about as much support as I'd expect for a movie that is both puppet-oriented and filthy. I, however, loved it.
There really aren't any subtleties for me to go into; if you like what you see in the trailer, it's probably for you, and if not, it probably isn't.
Eastasia has always taught college students to feel pride or shame according to their race.
Ad Astra - Viewed in Imax:
In interesting combination of 2001 a Space Odyssey, Apocalypse Now, every 'Daddy Issues" movie ever made, and a weird Space Cowboys tie-in.
Brad Pitt gives every mopey, introspective, non-teary eyed sad look a person can with their face in an astronauts helmet. Devoid of emotion, incapable of anxiety, essentially a hollow draft of a human being (but perfect for space travel-as he follows in his hero fathers footsteps (Brad Pitt senior? - No, actually Tommy Lee Jones doing what TLJ does-provide worthless exposition). Pitt helps drag this wonderfully shot movie that is as devoid of passion and inspiration as he himself is.
Too many Daddy issues, too many drama moments that defy the law of physics, let alone credulity, this 2 hour slog will have you wishing you left the theater to view "Rambo Last Blood".
More on that in the next review.

I had been on the fence about Ad Astra, but you confirmed every fear I had about it.

I knew Ad Astra would be a stinker from the minute I saw the first commercial. The marketing for that did not scream confidence to me.
Delinquent Girl Boss: Worthless to Confess (1971)
A group of young ladies just out of reform school find it a tough go as they try to make their way in society. One has a boyfriend who is a DFG*, and she steals from her father to support his habit. Another has a husband who quit the Yakuza but is now dying of TB (and she's pregnant). Another lost her job at the girlie cabaret and another is surviving on nude modeling gigs. And the local Yakuza shakedown thugs are bothering all of them.
More comedic touches and characterization and less violence and nudity than the typical pinky violence films of the era (for example, Female Prisoner Scorpion: Beast Stable or Criminal Woman: Killing Melody or Cloistered Nun: Runa's Confession or Zero Woman: Red Handcuffs or Terrifying Girls' High School: Lynch Law Classroom or Female Yakuza Tale or Sex & Fury). In fact, in Delinquent Girl Boss: Worthless to Confess, there's only 2-3 topless scenes and nothing really attempting to titillate. Sure, you'll never see any SAK** in a mainstream Japanese film, but usually we get more of a show.
Even so, I liked it! The characters were engaging and you could tell the director was trying to create a sympathetic story. Sure, the gals all team up at the end with swords and attack the Yakuza headquarters and slaughter everyone, but that's the expected payoff.
There's a scene where one of the young ladies working as a cabaret girl is trying to get one of the salaryman customers to fork over more $$. "I've got to buy school books for my college classes." HAHAHAHA. There's nothing new under the sun, is there?
