Do I want to watch 8mm (1999) or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)?

I needed something appropriate to crack this open with, and I can’t see anything fitting a Japanese armour shaped bottle of whiskey more than the weirdness of Miike.

thank you

It's Sports week for #ZombieSteve52 and I've had this on my shelf for about a decade. I had initially debated Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India, but it's nearly 4 hours and I have stuff to do today. Maybe next year. Also, found this list if anyone needs inspiration. letterboxd.com/tarokhnstuff...

Is Chow Yun Fat’s moustache in The Killer supposed to be fake? Does the hit take place a long time after getting the contract? Does he grow it instantaneously through pure force of will like the kid from Dr McNinja?

Don't be fooled by the marketing and unfortunate release timing, this is not the Ready Or Not mockbuster it feels like it's being promoted as. A bit more hyper than I normally like, but it's a lot of fun and full of surprises.

if you are a bigot or support bigotry or act in a movie built on the profits of hate, people are allowed to not like you 1. because bigotry is bad and 2. because people generally DONT LIKE THINGS THAT HURT THEM. like this is so obvious. it is not 'canceling' it is an exercise in basic human autonomy

Happy Fuck DHL Day! aka The Criterion 50% Off Flash Sale to those of you who don't have to pay the international shipping fees.

Someone should do a study of all the "Popular reviews" on Letterboxd and estimate what percentage could be written by people who hadn't seen the movie. Not saying everyone needs to be the next Ebert, but they're almost always things like "this is my new personality" and nothing else. Guessing 93%.

It's Superhero week for #ZombieSteve52 and while I do love The Flash, I totally picked this because Kate Micucci as Zatanna seems hilarious to me.

HUH?

I'm five days behind on March Around The World and it's starting to feel like homework. I've already got five full completions under my belt, so I officially retire. To celebrate, I'm watching trash. :D

A customer at Indigo asked if I worked there. If this shirt was the uniform at any nearby bookstore, I’d never leave.

Originally paid to rent a doc for #MarchAroundTheWorld only to find out the country listed for it was just someone trying to cheat their way to a full map. Well, that's a morning wasted.

That was the most aggressive playing off I’ve seen in a while.

BINGO!

Do we this this warning for the red carpet was inspired by Will Smith or the recent BAFTA events? Maybe worried people will say “fuck ICE” a lot?

If you see this, post an eye. (I feel connected to this one for some reason 😜)

Did you know that an unfolded tampon box looks a bit like a facehugger? Happy International Women’s Day.

Seriously tempted to watch Marty Supreme just so I don't have to have it as the banner image for my "Most Popular Films I Haven't Seen" list for a year. letterboxd.com/donjohn80/li...

It's Killer Soundtrack week for #ZombieSteve52, and this is leaving Criterion at the end of the month. It's fate. The run time was a bit of a deterrent, but I'm about halfway through and it's not been an issue so far.

If anyone needs inspiration for Killer Soundtrack week of #ZombieSteve52, I turned a Rolling Stone list of soundtracks into a Letterboxd list for easy filtering. letterboxd.com/donjohn80/li...

YUKI! #TheLastDrivein

As a Canadian, I occasionally have to be reminded Ralph's is not just a store made up for Nightvale. #TheLastDrivein

Does the sound for #TheLastDriveIn seem a bit out of sync for anyone else?

Order this a few days ago, it arrived yesterday, picked it up today. I can’t help but feel like the universe is messing with me.

It's Weather week for #ZombieSteve52, and I'll try and make better choices going forward. This was available to purchase for $2.99 and I did enjoy the second one, but I also watched that one while heavily medicated after a week in the hospital. This one has some good moments... just moments.

It's four minutes until March, which means it's time for a #MarchAroundTheWorld thread showing the pre-challenge state of my map in Lifetime and 2026 variety. Let's do this.

It's almost like the FIFA Peace prize means nothing to him.

Three things weigh on my mind since sailing North from Fallen London: 1) Did I inform my spouse? 2) Did I have a spouse? It’s all fuzzy. 3) Did I leave the iron on?

Happy -50th Birthday to Dallas

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1807

It's Based on TV/Turned into TV Week for #ZombieSteve52 so I think it's time to cross this off my list. Had no interest when it comes out, but damn it keeps getting good buzz.

Feb 22nd - Happy Birthday to this legend! 📽️📅 Hot Fuzz (2007)

So this week I went to see Send Help which is what I was referring to last week, and had I made it I think I genuinely would have declared movies as dead to me and taken up reading. Dodged a bullet.

Something is wacky with @letterboxd.social right now. If I go to individual films it's fine, but if I look at my whole list everything is suddenly looking like one star.

Apparently people are self publishing AI written “novelizations” of movies and selling them on Amazon. That first o e even has Daniel Craig’s name on the cover as the person playing Blanc… in the book… because that’s how books work. Sue some people, Netflix.

It's a Free Space week for #ZombieSteve52 and I have a few on tap for today, but I woke up at 6am and my rental is about to expire so this one wins. I've heard Stuckman's name, but that's about it. The first 17 minutes were unimpressive, but things are looking up after the format shift.

I swear I tried to go into 2024's The Crow with an open mind, but... woof.

I don’t know what’s going to happen in the next 30 minutes and I don’t want to pay to rent it again. I’m scared.

Is it just me, or does this sound like a threat?

It's Sword And Sorcery week for #ZombieSteve52, and I'm not rushing at the last minute for the first time this year. I'm about 30 minutes in and it's... rough...

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Today I learned "Texas Mickey" is a Canadian slang term. What the hell do Americans call big liquor bottles?
