Damn. That’s a good ass picture.

If I remember correctly, Jam Nordon thought it stunk. What a boob.

what are you in the mood for?

This sub has great suggestions, so genre doesn’t matter. Fuck capeshit, though. That’s a hardline.

have you seen The Master?

It’s Vurry good. Hoffman was, and Phoenix is still an actor that I’ll watch any one of his films.

Great question for /r/movies, stupid.

Clicked on it, saw the third post down discussing 13 Reasons Why. Not my kind of crowd in that sub, plus we maybe be fags, but the rest of Reddit is full on faggots. I don’t venture out of this sub.

Baby's Day Out

The Thing '82

I never get tired of watching that.

Watch it again to notice the subtle use of different shades of blue which, masks his hatred of humanity!

Greatest special effects ever. Rob Bottin was a demented dude.

If you’re looking for newer stuff...anything by Ari Aster or S. Craig Zahler. Not watching much foreign stuff but I would say those are two of the few American directors making good films right now. Check out “Aint them Bodies Saints” with Casey Affleck from a few years ago...”Ex Machina” was great too...also the recent Mad Max movie was awesome.

Thank you. I do love Oscar Isaac.

If you're looking for a slow, somber meditation on aging and the role of the mentor set in the picturesque English countryside with fine acting performances and an emotionally satisfying denouement then I suggest The Browning Version. Underrated film.

Another user recommended a Danish film the other day called The Guilty. The whole film is just a guy on the phone but fuck it's compelling.

Adding it to my list. Thanks.

Annihilation

Apostle

The Assassination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford, Naked Lunch, Road To Perdition, Kalifornia, Wonderland, Angel Heart, Cop Land, The People Vs. Larry Flynt, Bone Tomahawk, The Great Silence, Miller's Crossing (or any other Coen Bros. film)

I'm sure you've probably already seen most of these next ones, but just in case there's any you haven't: Heat, Donnie Brasco, Carlito's Way, Trainspotting, The Outlaw Josey Wales, Sling Blade, The Thing

Cop Land is painfully underrated. I love that film.

the end of the tour is on netflix and I really enjoyed it.

Sexy Beast from 2000 is awesome. Watch it with the subtitles on to capture all of the cockney insults. Ben Kingsley got a lot of praise for this film but Ian McShane steals the movie for me playing one of the scariest perverted gangster villains I’ve seen in a movie.

I just saw American Animals and it was pretty fucking good. The guy who made it previously made a great documentary called The Imposter which I highly recommend.

I also just rewatched Hereditary and it's a solid horror movie. If you like horror then I'd also recommend It Follows and The Witch as 2 great recent examples.

It Follows is the shit. Maika Monroe is in another really good horror film from a while back called The Guest as well. Both have great soundtracks.

Check out The Pusher trilogy. Mads Mikkelsen made his acting debit in the first one and he's the star of the second. Great movies, but they're Danish, so they have subtitles.

I just re-watched two Mikkelsen films the other day called The Hunt and The Door. That dude is such a great actor.

Check out Pusher 1 and 2 , they're great stories. Mads Mikkelsen is the star of Pusher 2. He is bullied and ridiculed by everyone around him until he doesn't take it anymore. Everyone treated him like shit, like a fucking idiot, but in the end, he tried to do the right thing.

Thanks I will. I hadn't heard of them before but they look good.

A Madea Family Funeral ( 2019 )

A couple of documentaries for you:

  • Cocaine Cowboys a documentary about two guys who imported Coke into Miami during the late 70s-80s. It's put together in a kind of glossy, fun, 1980s way; and has music by Jan Hammer who did the music for Miami Vice.

  • Electric Boogaloo: The Wild, Untold Story of Cannon Films. Cannon/Golan-Globus were 80s dirtbags who'd hammer out a dozen mostly-shitty movies per year, and in doing so made stars of people like Chuck Norris, Charles Bronson and Dolph Lundgren; and also launched the American Ninja craze. It's interesting because it shows how far you can go with zero taste or skill but balls of steel; plus they really did change the movie industry forever - one of the last interviews is with some ex-Cannon staff who admit to using their principles to make an endless array of Jason Statham films.

For fairly recent shit- check out 'The Art of Self Defense' with Jesse Eisenberg. It's a really dark, absurdist comedy that has Eisenberg playing this pussy who joins a karate school after being mugged one night. You think it's going to play out a certain way at the beginning but the plot just gets very twisted as it goes on.
