🎥 What films are you watching? December 2024 🎬

Let’s keep on consumin’ that media

Nice movie November!

My Movie Moment of the Month was the bit in Ambulance where Yahya Abdul-Matee hooks himself up to give his blood to the cop he shot whilst still driving the ambulance being used as the getaway vehicle during a high-speed pursuit. Cool as shit.

Somehow felt like all the characters got less screen time than before, didn’t have the fun “getting the gang together sequence”, the Julia Roberts stuff was cringe. Pass!

Irreconcilable difference of opinion here regarding the film Oceans 12

Have a lovely day nevertheless x

Toss up between Vanya’s nude backward roll pre-sex in Anora, or the hot ballerina in Rear Window chowing down on what looked like a full tomahawk steak while doing her routine

How does Ocean’s 13 fare in your estimation

I like it less but that’s because I love how brazenly “movie stars hanging out is all you peasants need” Oceans 12 is.

13 is decent though and more just like a not as good retread of 11

Best: Aliens & Your Name (both rewatches)

Worst: All Monsters Attack - the Godzilla franchise version of a clip show

MMOTM: inside the plane diving towards the Pacific in Emergency Declaration
