A24

Rap music used to be kinda good & fun in the Seventies and the early Eighties. Today it's hideous. 
 
 
Everything in the hit charts is bad. I feel sorry for the kids who have to listen to such unadventurous music. 
 
 
You also hate Disco.

Not a fan of Country music but I do like some songs. Like this one by Glen Campbell ...
 
 

Let me guess, when it comes to Rock or Pop, you only like Elvis? Right?
 
 
He loves you! In fact, he sees a little bit of him in you. 

Disco is great. Techno is disco 

Your entire plan is predicated on people actually caring about the film.

Marriage Story (2019):
 
The film managed to 'surprise' on one point: Adam Driver. I've always been in doubt about his role in Disney Star Wars, but here he surprised me. In fact, I dare say that Adam Driver is the reason why you should see this movie.  And yes, although it is not an outright remake, sometimes Marriage Story is reminiscent of Kramer vs Kramer, but that is probably hard to avoid. About the song "Being Alive": This scene is the other highlight of the film. I did not know this song from adam (pun intended) but immediately recognized that it was from Sondheim. 6,5/10
 

 
Is Marriage Story the Kramer vs Kramer of 21st Century? 
 

 
 
Is Adam Driver the new Dustin Hoffman?
 

 

I didn't even want to watch this trailer because the first one was so plain & dull. I would be surprised if this one is better since it's made by the same people.

These are unique observations! I thought it was all just bad. 

He does, even though he doesn't know who he is, and people want him dead. Perhaps this confused certain viewers because they believe there is only one correct facial expression for a certain situation?

We Eurotrashers prefer The Bourne Identity, where Bourne feels more human, identifiable, and where the movie is more about atmosphere than it is about theme park rides. Right, Steef?

It starts off with a female Jason Bourne, then many sisters appear with fake Russian accents, then we get gigantic air battles ...
 
Hey, it's Marvel, what did you expect?

Also known as Event Horizon, The Remake. 

Also known as Event Horizon, The Remake. 

Well for starters, only recent theatrical releases make it onto Blu-ray in my country - things like the major franchises, big budget spectacles and box offices hits. Don't expect anything arthouse or older than five years ago, unless it's a huge crowd-pleaser like E.T. - and even that is changing. 
 
So anything that does not fall in the categories I've listed has to be imported, meaning it's much more expensive. Our currency has plummeted over the last ten years and the cost of living is increasing by the month. 5, 6 and 8 Euros with postage is very expensive when converted.
 
Add to that the fact that Blu-ray never really took off here, at its height you'd be lucky to find a store or rental place stocking more than 50 to 120 titles max. Most people here are happy to rent the latest release on DVD or wait for it to show on satellite TV, or pirate it. Collectors are very thinly spread. There's hardly any secondary market.
 
First Worlders, you guys are very spoilt, enjoy it and spare a thought for those on the arse-end of the world.

Agreed! I already tried to watch the film three times but I always give up. 

Yes, I vaguely seem to remember S3 was getting annoying, even to the point that I wasn't sad it was the last season. 

On both sides of the ...
 

 

Is this the General Grievous of turntables?

What are you talking about?!
 

 

The Crown S3 Episode 6. Yep, the actor who plays Charles is terrific. The moment you see him is the moment you accept him.
 

Splash was the last Howard that had a freshness to it, i don't mind his general whitebread-ishness but from 'Cocoon' onwards he often favoured the kind of engineered Hollywood slickness that can work you over once in a while but mostly it is just that (sometimes he did nastier stuff by accident, as in 'The Grinch'). Though 'Solo's problems have nothing to do with that.
