Blood Rage Nightmare at Shadow Woods
I finally got around to seeing the Mayhem biopic, Lords of Chaos. It was pretty decent.
I watched The Edge Of Seventeen, The Half Of It and Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis last night and enjoyed them all
I got a book on 1001 movies to watch before you die. Decided to start going through it as something to distract myself with during quarantine.
I began with 2016's Moonlight. Excellent film. I loved how honestly it portrayed the story of a gay black man growing up in modern day (1990s-Now) America. It was unflinching in how rough life can be in "bad" neighbors especially when drugs like crack are involved, how homophobic people can be in general, and it made a pretty pointed argument about how our circumstances dictate a lot about who we become as people. Totally get why this won Best Picture.
Also, Mahershala Ali is a damn beast at acting. He killed it here.

Sleepaway Camp 3 1989
Frozen 2 was good. Plus, it had elemental bullshit and I'm a sucker for it

Life's a performance, so give it your all like it's your last show.
Occupation on Netflix, it's Australian.
Watched The Incredibles last night. S'alright.
I enjoyed Jack Jack Attack. (the short)
Watched 1993's "Philadelphia" on Netflix last night as I continue to work my way through 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die.
Really powerful movie. Tom Hank's depiction of a lawyer that gets AIDS and begins a wrongful termination suit was undoubtedly powerful (It makes sense why he won a besting actor Oscar for the performance), but I really loved how Denzel Washington played a somewhat homophobic lawyer who takes on the case and slowly works through his prejudice. I feel like that might've been my favorite part of the movie honestly. It felt so damn realistic with him using pretty crass language when talking about homosexual people at first and then eventually comforting a dying gay in the hospital.
The makeup was also pretty amazing in this one as well. They really made Tom Hanks look like he had AIDS and was slowing emaciating over the course of the film.
ALSO: The Bruce Springsteen opening theme for this movie is a bop. I've loved it for a long time and I really appeciate it now that I've actually seen the film that it's from.
Go watch this flick if you haven't.

The Maze Runner 3 for the second time. For some strange reason i cannot remember anything from this movie.
I'm going to watch Reservoir Dogs sometime this week, and this weekend my dad and I are gonna watch Drugstore Cowboy!
I need a tanning bed, a 3D life to keep me from the cold.

I watched the first two but lost interest; is the third one worth it?
For context, I did read all three of the books.

It's different but yeah it's alright, i always thought the first one was cool
Do you guys pause the movie so you can post here???
Watching the HBO Watchmen series. Each episode is a fucking hour long so it might as well be a movie series. First two episodes have been great. I like the idea of a pack of white supremacists adapting a hero's persona on their projected crusade. I hope there's a hilarious turning point where the series turns to crap because it'd be depressing if the series is only divisive because it focuses on the topic of racism instead of being just another Hero™ vs Badguy™ story.
Newest MIB
Kinda meh, pretty obvious to me who was going to shoot the weapon in the end, girl power.
Watched 2018's Crazy Rich Asians with my girlfriend because it was in my "1001 movies to watch before you die" book.
Kind of a cute flick. Typical romantic comedy fare with the biggest twist being that the cast is virtually entirely made up of Asian actors and actresses. Actually had some good laughs in it (Ken Jeong from The Hangover movies is in this and he's hilarious here as well) and I loved seeing how insanely opulent some of the filming locations and sets were. The movie did a really good job of selling the fact that these are people with ungodly amounts of wealth and prestige with its actors's performances in these beautiful manors and apartments.
Still kinda shocked this movie made the cut of the top 1001 films to be watched by the book I'm going through, though. It was fine, but it wasn't like legendarily good...

Been watching a bunch of free movies on YouTube ever since I discovered the existence of them. Sure, a lot of them are b-movies, but I see that as a win as I like b-movies, particularly the disaster and monster ones. If the action is good I'll enjoy it, simple as that. There are a few good quality movies that were free to watch though, the first Child's Play film being one of them.
Just give me the Pulitzer right now. The competition's over, close the entries, I'd like to thank everyone who lost
