Never too early to start on the 2020s tournament

Haha, true that!

I'm surprised you guys aren't enjoying Palm Springs more.

I like Palm Springs a lot better now! I just watched 47 Meters Down: Uncaged. What a load of crap. 3/10

I watched this recently also. I wasn't expecting much, just a mindless shark movie, and that's what it is. It's not great by any means. The dialogue was awful, the CGI sharks weren't great, the whole plot of the movie was a little silly.

My favorite line in the whole movie was right before they go cave diving and one of the girls goes, "Guys, cave diving is dangerous!" And that's why they deserve to get eaten.

...sounds like I need to watch I Saw the Devil.

Absolutely, but be warned - it is probably the most violent film you'll see this side of Ichi The Killer.

Feev, will I like it? It's been on my list forever, but now I'm a little worried since you mentioned Ichi the Killer.

I still have The Nightingale on my mind. They are both brutal revenge films. If highly violent scenes aren't your thing, I would pass. This violence is especially perpetuated against women, so it's really hard to watch, but it's a great film.

[fernandito]

@Heater it's a fantastic film with some tantalizing cat-and-mouse trappings, but yes it's extremely violent. The killer in the film targets women so if that's hard for you to watch, you might reconsider.

Incendies... Denis V Is one hell of a director. I absolutely loved this film. I couldn’t take
My eyes off it. 9.5/10. Virtually flawless.... if you have not seen this.... you need to.

Agreed. Every single film he's made is at least very good. Check out the rest of his stuff. His earlier movies like Incendies are no less engaging than the later well-known stuff like Arrival or Sicario. For example, Polytechnique is extremely tense, it's about a real-life school shooting in Canada, filmed in stark black and white. It's streaming on Prime. Unfortunately, it wasn't seconded during our 2000s tournament but I nominated it And I also nominated his debut feature August 32nd on Earth during our 1990s tournament, that one is a smaller film, but you can already see his unique vision. That one, sadly, doesn't seem to be streaming anywhere now.

I'll be renting The Nightingale on my Xbox and watching it up north when I visit my mom.

I'm unnaturally excited for you to watch this one.

The Perks of Being A Wallflower

Perks is one of my favourite movies ever. It’s easily a top 5 for me. Same goes for the novel. Glad you enjoyed it. And sounds like I need to watch I Saw the Devil.

...and every time I come to this thread my to-watch list grows...

[mae]

Jean! I hope you can take part in the voting process of our upcoming 2010s tournament (starting this Monday), after you missed nominations!

[Jean]

mae , I really really hope so! Too much is happening, both inside and outside bears' head, can't keep track of any events, but will certainly do my best to dig my paws here as deep as I can this time

Today was my first day back to the movies.... OHH HOW IVE MISSED YOU! We seen “Target Number One” and it was amazing. First post Covid release
And what a wonderful story. A true story from the 80’s sooooo relevant today with corrupt cops.
I cannot believe what I seen... another Denis V. Coming out of Canada!! 8.5/10.

AMAZING story telling.

Easy now. That's a big name right there.

EDIT: It seems as though the film Web is referring to is also going by the name Most Wanted.

[Randall Flagg]

Congrats Kris. We (SF Bay Area) are a ways off from theaters opening.

Yeah I seen that. Crazy... wonder why it’s different here? Man it was a well done movie. Maybe cause I was so happy to be back to a theatre too. Haha

I'm sure that played a part. It's only natural. The trailer looks good and it's interesting to see Josh Hartnett again.

I felt the real stand out was the unknown kid that played the framed drug dealer. He was awesome! And Josh was good to... I always liked him. And Lucky number Slevin I loved where he was great in.

I rewatched Spotlight last night- only saw it in theaters - just to refresh my memory and get a better feel for how far it needs to go in the tournament. My assessment: pretty fucking far.

A powerful, important film about failed systems and the dangers of perpetuating secrets. If you haven't seen it, you need to. It's on Netflix.

[Still Servant]

Spotlight is that rare, timeless film. It's super timely, really mainstream and really good. That is a combination of 3 things that are hard to find sometimes.

Not that it's new to me, but lately I've been seeing bits of The Wedding Singer on a regular basis (thank you, Freeform channel!).

Something curious that I've noticed the last two times I watched it: when Glenn asks Julia (Drew Barrymore) to order him a Heineken the next time she has a chance, Freeform blanks out the word "Heineken." Why? Is beer a big deal these days? Seems odd.

Here's the original clip (unchanged, except for the addition of something else at the end for humor purposes):
