Just watched Dark Knight again. Overrated.
Probably watch Biutiful later.
Some films are okay.

Iāll watch Ghost In The Shell (the anime and not the Scarlett Johansson) later. Always been meaning to watch it but never got round to it.
July:
23 films, 2 were rewatches.
Best: Lynn and Lucy
Worst: The house that Jack built
August releases, in theory.
Not sure how I feel about Tenet. Should be right up my street but the trailer looks pretty boring.
Find Nolanās films very much style over substance, apart from The Prestige, which for me is his best film.
Thereās a really good three-part Kermode on Film pod ranking them.
Rewatched Burning last night, wharra great film
Last yearās Charlieās Angels film is the definition of trying too hard
July
32 films watched
Mars Attacks! rewatched (a mistake)
Best: Lynn +Lucy, Good Manners, The Good Girls, So Long My Son
Worst: Once There was Brasilia, The Partyās Just Beginning, Mr Jones, The Curse of the Wraydons
July
18 films watched (Iām including Hamilton and you canāt stop me)
Best: Da 5 Bloods
Worst: To All the Boys PS I Still Love You
Biggest surprise: Hedwig and the Angry Inch
Memento?
thinking of watching this tonight!
Juat want to mention Transit again, might be one of the best films of last decade
Also watched Reality Bites which I really liked, Ethan Hawke looks about 35 in it
Singles > Reality Bites >>> Empire Records
I was gonna watch Empire Records cause I thought it was some big cult film then the reviews were all shit. Not seen Singles either, worth a watch?
I really enjoyed Singles, great soundtrack plus itās where the āThis band is UNSTOPPABLEā quote at the start of this comes from, which was a fun discovery
I mean Empire Records has its charms, Iāll watch anything of that type set in the 90s, but itās decidedly Not Good
also at points a painfully accurate depiction of awkwardly third-wheeling, and the bemused disappointment at having slightly misinterpreted someoneās romantic interest
Has anyone seen Selah and the Spades? I think the story was kinda weak, didnāt lean hard enough into the crime family elements or the high school drama elements. Ending up being a little lost in the middle
But! It looked and sounded amazing, I loved the main performances and just the whole vibe and atmosphere it had, a really enjoyable way to spend the evening. Hate the cliche but this was a good example of a film that, if flawed, shows that the director could go onto great things
Under the Silver Lake is on MUBI. Very hyped to watch that again
yeah Iāve seen it, pretty much agree with you.
I do wonder if thisāll be a film which will grow in stature over time (I still thought it was shite)
