What's the last movie you've seen?

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

I really enjoyed this film, it was such a refreshing pace from the usual drivel that streaming services having been releasing lately. Plus you can't go wrong with a good murder mystery that was full of twist and turns and had a very satisfying ending.
 
saw babylon in theatres with my mom last night! it’s definitely one of the weirdest, and longest, movies i’ve ever seen, but i enjoyed it! i wasn’t expecting it to be as vulgar and insane as it was, but it was entertaining! enough so to keep my attention span in check for 3+ hours haha. margot robbie was stunning in it as well. <3

i don’t see myself watching it again just because of the length alone (can barely pay attention to something for 30 mins, let alone 3 hours lol), but it was good! crazy and confusing at times, but good!
 
The One, with Jet Li. Awesome soundtrack! Contemplating on watching either the new Pinocchio or Black Adam.
 
The Graduate (1967)

As awesome as I remember it, and not to mention the music! 😍 Watched it last night.

Paddington (2014)

Watched this one today since they put it up on the public telly "play"-channel online and I wanted to see it :D
Very cute, and fun for all ages! ❤️
 
Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery
Huge fan of the first one and I liked this one just as much! I really hope they bring out more. Saw someone suggest a Knives Out spin off with the muppets where Benoit Blanc is the only human and I would LOVE to see that.

Matilda The Musical
Loved this! Whilst nothing can replace the original IMO (Danny DeVito & Pam Ferris etc), I still really enjoyed it. Will have Naughty stuck in my head for the foreseeable.

Sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty 😈😉
 
Decision to Leave (2022) ended up being my favorite film I’ve watched all year, and I watched a LOT of good stuff! Can’t say what I loved about it without spoiling but I have a feeling I’ll rewatch it a lot for that stunning cinematography and melancholic atmosphere.
 
Saw Matilda: The Musical today. The singing was good, however I still prefer the 90s version. I want to read the book now and see how accurate this version is.
 
Thor Love and Thunder. It was...adequate. The idea was good, but the mood shifted too much from nauseous meme to serious. It was better then the 2nd film, but no where as good as the 1st and 3rd.
 
So, long story short, there used to be a show on the TNT cable channel called MonsterVision. On MonsterVision, they'd generally show horror movies, but not exclusively. MonsterVision ran for 9 years from 1991 to 2000, 4 years of which (1996-2000) it was hosted by a guy called Joe Bob Briggs. Basically, he'd introduce the movies, pop in between ad breaks, talk about the making of the films and such, all with comedic flare.

In 2018, the horror movie streaming service Shudder decided to bring Joe Bob back for a 26-hour marathon stream of various movies. It went over well and in 2019 Shudder turned it into a show called The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs. Every once in a while throughout the year there will be a new episode of The Last Drive-In where they show a few movies.

On Christmas, I watched this year's Joe Bob Briggs Christmas special on Shudder that came out earlier in the month: Joe Bob's Ghoultide Get-Together. They showed two movies: Don't Open Till Christmas (1984, director Edmund Purdom) and A Christmas Horror Story (2015, directors Grant Harvery, Steven Hoban, and Brett Sullivan). I'd never seen either of them before. Don't Open Till Christmas was pretty fun. Didn't think much of A Christmas Horror Story, but it was serviceable I guess. That's fine though since half the fun of The Last-Drive In is all the Joe Bob stuff interspersed throughout, and especially this time since the Christmas specials double as charity auctions for good causes and they included fun, humorous adverts for the stuff they were auctioning off. Had a good time, sorta glad I waited to watch on Christmas instead of the live broadcast on the 16th (still donated though).

I also revisited the original 1974 Black Christmas (director Bob Clark) which has become a Christmas mainstay for me over the past few years.

I still felt like watching some Christmas stuff on Monday as well since I was too busy throughout the rest of the month to watch stuff I intended to get to. So, I revisited the 2015 movie Krampus (director Michael Dougherty) as well as the 2017 Christmas zombie musical Anna and the Apocalypse.
 
violent night and don’t worry darling. i wouldn’t say that i particularly enjoyed either of them, but i’m glad i watched them — they’re both worth watching at least once imo. i mainly watched violent night for david harbour since i’m not really into action movies, but it made me laugh a bit. my parents definitely liked it more than i did, though. 😅 david was great; he always slays all of his roles!

don’t worry darling was my favourite of the 2, but it was kinda ruined for me since i’d already seen so many clips from it, so i already knew a lot of the ‘twists’ and how it ends. the concept was cool, though! florence pugh and olivia wilde did amazing, and it was nice to see harry styles in an acting role! last time i saw him act, it was on icarly in 2012, and i don’t even consider that acting since he was playing as himself lol. 🤣
 
I've been working my way through The Thin Man series. I watched The Thin Man Goes Home yesterday, so tonight I'll watch the last in the series - Song of the Thin Man. Probably the weakest in the group, but I do love William Powell and Myrna Loy.
 
I had a Movie Marathon over New Years to catch up on movies I haven't seen yet but been sitting in my "To Watch" list for who knows how long.

Here's the movies I have seen:
  • Glass Onion: Knives Out Mystery - Really good, one of my favorites from this marathon.
  • Bullet Train - Thought it was interesting, nothing else
  • Disenchanted - A nice sequel to the original, thought it could be slightly better
  • Strange World - A nice film.
  • Don't Worry Darling - An okay film even though I called out the twist correctly before it was revealed.
  • Nope - Another okay film, sort of interesting, but something different.
  • Do Revenge - Pretty surprised by it, kind of all over the place near the end. Twist is good.
Overall a success :)
