GODZILLA MINUS ONE seemed to have taken forever to make it over here in physical form – I can only conclude that the studio really wasn’t expecting it to take off as hard in the United States as it did – but we have it now. No digital copy included, but that’s all right. I’ve already watched it on one of the streaming services. No Minus Color version, either, which is less all right. Ach, well.

I’m picking DANGEROUS LIAISONS because some genius at Amazon has decided to remake CRUEL INTENTIONS as a series. Since We all know that movie was only a “little copy, a child’s model or a slave’s flattery” of the Glenn Close / John Malkovich / Michelle Pfeiffer masterpiece, it’s safe enough to assume that the series is going to somehow be even worse. Hell, the new series may not even be particularly lust-inducing. We don’t really do those anymore, after all.
Truly, this is an appallingly drab age.

Solely so that I could put this clip up. When men aren’t thinking of the Roman Empire…

PS: According to the Internet, RED DAWN is forty years old today. …God help us all.
I don’t know how I got sucked into rewatching TANGLED. All I know is, that movie has absolutely no business being as good as it is. Seriously, if you’ve never watched it then you’re missing out. Also note that the cover image actually accurately promises you some of the stuff that happens in the movie itself. I know Disney’s quality has slipped, but this is firmly from a time period where that had not yet happened.
KUNG FU PANDA has no business being this good a movie. Seriously, everybody thought it was going to suck: it had all the warning signs. I think I watched this on my flight back from Hawaii, and I was mesmerized at how easily it all worked. Just goes to show, huh?

Believe it or not, I’ve never seen MR. & MRS. SMITH before. But it’s available on streaming, so I figured I’d check it out. …It is an absurd film, yes. Absurd, unbelievable, enough plot holes to drive a truck through, and I enjoyed every second of it. If you haven’t watched it, go ahead.
Come, now. We all knew this was inevitable. BARBIE and OPPENHEIMER are quantumly entangled, now. They will reference each other until the sun contracts into a red dwarf. This is… destiny.

THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER IS my favorite horror movie I’ve seen this year. It’s lots of fun, but fair warning: don’t watch it if you like your vampires sexy. Or have an irrational investment in seeing characters survive horror movies. I don’t feel that I’m spoiling anything by saying that.

I’m sorry, but Renfield was fun. My kid in particular loved it, and was disappointed that more people did not. There is honestly no accounting for taste, sometimes.
