Jodorowsky's Dune.
Ehhh. His vision for Dune doesn't really seem correct to me. Also, the claim that it would have replaced Star Wars as the first major blockbuster doesn't really make sense to me. A major part of Star Wars's success was the fact that it was a family friendly film. Jodorowsky's vision for Dune might have been groundbreaking, but it hardly seemed to be intended for a family audience. I did like the sequence at the end showing all the movies that may have taken inspiration from Jodorowsky's Dune. It was pretty neat.

It kind of reminded me of the concept of Slaughterhouse-Five.

Star Trek I: The Motion Picture
Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan
Finals week, so I actually had time to listen to something because I've been studying all day!

Arrival
My parents took me out to see this. I thought it was pretty good, but they hated it. I am a little confused by some of it, but I've got to let it settle.

He did say "sample". I'm sure it's not really that big of a deal.

Gentlemen Broncos
This movie had some really funny parts, but it wasn't super great. No clue why it has 18% on Rotten Tomatoes though. I would expect it to be more around 40ish. It was also pretty weird that it was filmed like ten minutes from my house.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens
I hadn't driven my car in a while, and this was in there, so when I drove home today, I decided to give it a listen. Pretty dang good.

Is it Golden Age quality?
No, it's actually pretty terrible, but in a fun way, and not in a way that detracts from it

I've been watching the Flash recently. This show is sooo cheesy. I love it. I feel like I'm watching the classic Batman. It's obviously not the exact same, but the campiness of the show is fun. It's fun to watch, just to listen to the terrible science explanations and the really bad one liners.

Sky High
Not even that good of a movie, but I still liked it. I mean, it's not like this hurt it at all:
I'm talking about the poster in the background, just so everyone knows.

Home Alone. I like this one.

I'm on my phone

The Iron Giant. Good, but not the best thing I've ever seen.
-
I don't even need to see the movie now. The trailer showed everything.

You can tell me, I'm sitting down.
Haha, I guess I totally misread this haha. I don't actually know what their favorite movies are.

They better do a good job. The problem with the first one is that it makes no sense unless you already know what's going on. The Sci-fi miniseries was alright I guess, but I didn't particularly like the casting.

That scene where the boat flips upside down is intense.

Creepy? What?
I don't know. I don't understand why they think that.

You asked me what my favorite movies were, not my roommates.

I'd say eventually you give both films a chance again. Kubrick keeps on rewarding you the more you watch his films.
Maybe. The shining was pretty good, but I don't really feel a need to watch it again. I never want to watch 2001 again though. I was just needlessly slow.

E.T. would certainly seem to be an iconic and beloved film, yet it has become increasingly forgotten and irrelevant with each passing decade. Don't tell me it isn't true. It's more of a cult film these days. The next generation didn't embrace it and the previous generation mostly forgot about the film itself and remember the idea of it, if you will.
True, none of my roommates like ET at all. They think it's too creepy. I for one think it's a great film.

The Shining
Pretty good, I guess. Not something I'd ever want to watch again, but it was worth watching once. I wasn't expecting to like this after my experience with 2001, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Somewhere in the third season of Space Ghost Coast to Coast. I get the feeling that a lot of people on here wouldn't like it, but I do.

Is this supposed to be some passive aggressive jab at me based on my movie taste?
Uhhh, I like Napoleon Dynamite. Star Wars is pretty good (I'm talking about the whole series in general, not one specific movie). The Sixth Sense is good. Rear Window is up there. I'm having a really hard time thinking of movies that I like more than others.
Which do you prefer? "Across the Stars" or "Rey's Theme"?

Rey's theme is good, but it feels just a bit more incohesive than Across the Stars to me. They're both incredible themes, but I like across the stars just a little bit more.
