It's your list and all but I don't know why you'd wanna reward people who can only come up with a 10-movie list for the whole damn decade. That doesn't even qualify as surface-level knowledge.

Lynch.

Letterboxd tells me I got 88 movies from the '70s I've rated 3.5/5 or higher. Not sure I can kick that number up to 100 in a month but I'll try. FYC

When you want an original & well-reviewed film to succeed but also you paired it with Hobbs & Shaw in the closest to 150m summer game question

I'd like to do the best of the decade countdown when the time comes. Thinking around March 15 would be a good submission deadline, with the reveal over the last week of March. That would be three or four weeks after the boffys. Nothing final yet though.

@Eric! appears to have wanted to do it, at least as of a month ago.

Spent last week catching up on some unseen '89 films to get to at least 20 I'd feel pretty good about so here goes. 1. The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover 2. Do the Right Thing 3. Monsieur Hire 4. Mystery Train 5. The Killer 6. Crimes and Misdemeanors 7. Kiki's Delivery Service 8. sex, lies, and videotape. 9. The Woman in Black 10. Henry V 11. The Fabulous Baker Boys 12. Sea of Love 13. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade 14. When Harry Met Sally... 15. Road House 16. For All Mankind 17. Meet the Feebles 18. The Unbelievable Truth 19. Johnny Handsome 20. Spirits of the Air, Gremlins of the Clouds

more like the time travel is fucking boring

HOPE dangles on a string like slow spinning redemption

and yet why do i get the feeling that it's still movies like those five, and not OUATIH, that we are gonna get dozens more of.

all superhero movies should be animated.

@baumer @grim22 hey what's the scoring method gonna be on this one? every movie gets one less point than the one above it? or are there groupings?

the fifth estate

Once Upon a Time PTA looking to drop just 10% or so from last weekend. Should keep doing great until It 2 at least. Good to see it sustaining the audience's interest, this is something a lot of adult releases that may or may not be divisive never get a chance to do cause they don't open high enough and are gone from theaters before you know it.

Hey it's the MCU's world now. Art like that has no place in it

this shot is brilliant and should be shown in any film studies class
