2018 Movies & Tv Shows

[memebag]

Last night I saw Tenacious D's new web series, "Post Apocalypto", presented as a film with a Q&A with the band. It was very funny. Lots of dicks. Much better than "Pick of Destiny".

After that I saw "The Dead Zone". I love Cronenberg, but only when he directs his own material. When he directs a film that someone else wrote he slows everything down too much.

This morning I saw "The Big Bad Fox and Other Tales", a French cartoon. It was, as I knew beforehand, lame. It was a cereal party. I just went for the cereal.

Sounds surreal.

I just saw the new "Suspiria". I dislike the original, but I liked this one. Much better script and better dancing.

Last night at 9pm I saw a Kirsten Dunst mystery movie, projected from VHS. It turned out to be "Fifteen and Pregnant", a Lifetime channel made for TV movie. Three people bought tickets. Only two showed up, both adult men. The program director watched it with us.

I have no idea why they showed it. I have no idea why I went.

It was an OK movie, but a very strange experience.

Last night I saw "Mid90s", a movie about a kid growing up in the mid 90s. It was great. It reminded me a lot of the late 70s, just with different music. I wasn't this kid, but I knew a kid a lot like him.

Are you never allowed to name it or only until it is generally released?

Oh, I know that film. It was Dumb and Dumber.

I'm thinking the owner of the movie theater is being a dick...just name the damn movie for crying out loud!!!

The movie was released long ago. It was selected by a fellow Graveyard Shift member who got 40 stamps in his book. The program director was able to show it on the condition that we can't say it was shown in a theater. We have showings with this condition several times each year.

Saw 2 movies today.

Outlaw King was ok. Nothing special but if you have nothing to watch it's not so bad. 2.5/5

The Predator was AWFUL! Wow this was a bad movie. I couldn't even make it all the way through. Sad too cause I love the idea of the predator. It felt like a student film that somehow got a VFX budget. Do not waste your time. 1/5

Saw Bohemian Rhapsody tonight. Fantastic movie despite the timeline inaccuracies. May see it again.

Saw 2 quality movies but one was great and has earned a spot on my 2018 top 5. Both were set in the Oakland area.

Sorry to Bother You was good. All I knew going in was that it was about a black guy who uses a white voice (dubbed by David Cross) at his call center job to make more sales. Well there are a few other major plot points the trailer didn't cover and it was nice to go into them fresh. It gets kinda wacky at times in a good way. Worth a watch. 3/5

Blindspotting was fantastic! It's about a guy who has 3 days left on his probation and has to stay out of trouble while living life, hanging out with his friend, working, going to parties and dealing with his ex. There were some true LOL moments in this movie and also some rather serious, emotional scenes. I LOVED IT! You gotta check this one out. 5/5

2018 Top 5 so far:

Super Troopers 2
Annihilation
Blindspotting
I Think We're Alone Now
A Quite Place

When we saw the Queen move, we saw 2 previews for 2018 movies that we thought were interesting:

1. The Green Box. This comes out this week I think. Looks good.
2. Vice. This looks interesting. The story behind Dick. From the previews it did not appear to be politically slanted but I would find this a difficult subject not to. Comes out Christmas and will likely watch it.
