Saw the first Halloween for the first time this past weekend. I was surprised to find that it was great. I had lumped it in with every bad slasher copycat I was aware of, but I mean, the reason it had hundreds of copycats is because it's ****ing great. It also seems to be aware of some of the stuff Scream would make fun of it for 20 years later (like the not-quite-dead villain). Stellar ending.
Scream I last saw a couple of years ago and it's also great.

I liked the Costner Robin Hood a lot as a kid, partly for the soundtrack, and partly because I loved the scene where he falls from a burning rope. I re-enacted that as much as I could with a bed and pillows.

Yes this is also excellent, I have a 2016 post here about it.

I've read that if the writer is specific about the race/sex of characters it will be much more likely to stay that way.

I agree with this, and Hanks is especially pathetic when compared to Robards playing the same character, but I still liked The Post a lot.
