What are you watching & why? (splain)

So my five year old woke up sobbing for no apparent reason with fifteen minutes left and by the time he got settled down it was too late to finish it…so I guess I’ll find out the rest tonight. Definitely far weirder and more interesting than I expected. All the reviews pitched it as a “pitch black satire of the contemporary food scene” and while it had that I also thought it was an excellent horror movie.

We watched “The Menu” the other night and I have to say, it was good in a strange way. I hadn’t seen any previews for it, never heard of it in fact and 20 or so minutes in, I was asking why we were watching it, then all hell broke loose. The ending was a little strange but overall we enjoyed it for a movie night on the couch.

Saw the trailers on HBO and finally watched this last night. Definitely different from the standard fare, but found it engaging enough.

Ralph Fiennes always does a good job in whatever roles he's cast. Been pretty impressed with Anya Taylor-Joy too.

Finished it off today and I liked it! Had some good scenery, architecture and old school facial hair styles, along with an acceptable amount of blood. 🍺

Good call on the facial hair! The hipsters have done some good work on bringing back some classic styles, but not enough. Until you can walk into work in corporate America with a mustache that could touch your ears with your head held high, there is work to be done!

Battlebots. Because I like seeing metal stuff get wrecked.

If that’s the case, and you are ever looking for a “cult classic” over a couple beers, check out Robot Jox. It’s a post-apocalyptic Cold War based movie about giant machines controlled by people that have to fight to settle international disputes. It’s a little cheesy, but the fight scenes are pretty cool! I haven’t seen it since I was 13, so if you watch it and it sucks, that might be why…

Like an 80s version of Pacific Rim

I've rewatched a bunch of stuff from that era. A lot of it still stands well.
