  • Didn't think I could get more excited for Part 2 but here it is: Florence Pugh is being eyed for the role of Princess Irulan in Part 2: https://deadline.com/2022/03/dune-part-2-florence-pugh-princess-irulan-1234973534/
  • The last film I saw in theaters was NTTD and that came out to about $17-18 total for two tickets. If I'm spending close to $20 to see a movie once, it better be at home in 4K.

  • I haven't seen those "Cinema Sins" in ages, for good reason. I thought they died off.
  • One of my favorites is ducking out early - I had TWINE in fifth place. I've always loved the explosion of colors and the darkness of the oil staining up the picture. Those opening shots of the title sequence as it begins (as seen in that first shot)…

  • Going straight to Hulu - that's a sign that the studio is confident in their product.
  • A day of anniversaries, birthdays and celebrations, then - Happy Birthday and Happy 17 Year Anniversary around these parts, @DarthDimi! Make it a great day, sir, I hope you have a real good time. As always, thanks for all that you do for the forums.

  • No worries, I thought you were doing it on purpose each time and I couldn't figure out why! I always copy the previous post before me because I'm bound to screw up prior votes otherwise (been there, done that).

  • @MajorDSmythe, it is! I didn't go too in depth with it but you can make the wackiest nightmare in existence just as easily as you can craft a famous face out of it. It's very commendable and one of many highlights of the game. Do let me know your th…

  • Couldn't help myself and bought Elden Ring on release day, the only title I plan on doing such with for the rest of the year. It's beyond perfection, wowing me in so many aspects, from its big changes from past titles to its minor details, like how …

  • It seems like such a "legacy" thing these days, I guess it's the new trope or angle that most of these big gap sequels are taking on - it was used pretty well in Scream 4 yet copied once again in the new installment and it doesn't work. I've seen it…

  • I gotta say, TLJ and TROS were about one and the same for me - they had their faults, sure, but I don't see them being anywhere near "worst film ever" status; they're not even the worst installments in the series for me. I thought TROS (finally saw …
  • Gloria Hendry (Rosie Carver) is 73 years old today.
  • Great to hear, @DarthDimi. Most of the reviews I've seen thus far on Letterboxd seem to agree that it's one of the best but doesn't top the heights of TDK. I'm eager to see it for myself.
