    Summer rental: honestly my wife had been into John candy every since we saw I like me and neither of us saw this film so we checked it out…. Good lord this is bad. Not that its horribly acted or anything Candy shines as always but there is no plot till 45 minutes into the movie… i feel that if there was a rewrite introducing the family fixing the boat way earlier would of helped.


    Becoming Led Zeppelin: i watched this in the old house months ago just forgot to put it on my list so here we go adding it in now it was kind of interesting

    The Big Blue (1988). I wanted to see this one for a long time since I really like Jean Reno and heard it was one of his best movies. Definitely glad I checked it out - excellent music, cinematography, and drama. Also one of the best depictions I’ve seen in a movie of a person just feeling like they belong to another world, that being Jacques to the big blue rather than human society. I went with the longer cut, which seems to be a good decision based on what I’ve read.

    Glad to read you liked it. I love that film, it's one of my absolute favourites. Also one of my absolute favourite scores too. Éric Serra really makes you feel like you're part of that aquatic world. A long sit, this film, but definitely worth it. An exceptional experience, especially when you have a thing for the sea and the aquatic.

    Yes, I loved the score, and honestly all of Éric Serra's music that I've heard; never understood why his GE score is so hated. I'll admit I found the pacing a little rough at times, but for the most part my interest was still held through the long runtime. I've always been fascinated by the sea / undersea life, although I do have a fear of the deep, dark parts way down below. Interestingly enough, though, the movie didn't really trigger that fear. In any case, I can see why this film is a favorite for you and many others; it's very one of a kind, and I definitely wouldn't mind adding it to my collection someday.

    Couldn't agree more, he's actually one of my three or four favourite film composers in general. Regularly listen to his scores for the Besson films and really hope GE will get an extended release soon.

    FRANKENSTEIN (2025)
    Directed by Guillermo Del Toro

    frankenstein-combina-estetica-gotica-tradicional-vision-unica-guillermo-toro_98.jpg?crop=5442,3062,x1,y0&width=1900&height=1069&optimize=low&format=webply

    Definitely an original approach to the famous tale of Baron Frankenstein and his tormented creation.

    While certainly impressive, personally I prefer the Frankenstein tale to be told on a less larger-scale, or maybe I find such a tale better suited for a more old-style kind of film. Having recently revisited the Universal version and its sequel, and being rather fond of the Hammer series inspired by the Baron, I must admit that I prefer these films vastly over this iteration.

    (Going on a small tagent about a geographical nitpick here. While I always appreciate microstates being mentioned, Vaduz -capital of Alpine microstate Liechtenstein- is not situated by a lake but by the Rhine, which is a river.)

    Not bad by any means, I'd even recommend it. Just maybe not quite for me though.
