looks terrible

Question: when I need to turn on subtitles for a streaming foreign film, I also get closed caption. It's annoying to see <sad music playing> and the like on the screen. Doesn't seem to be any workaround for this. Is there?

Physical Media would solve that...

wait... it get's even worse.

they are making two movies at the same time and the second one isn't Garland/Boyle... it's be directed by Nia DaCosta of The Marvels fame...

I doubt a Garland/Boyle flick could be terrible... but you guys be you

Most people will point the saxophone guy, but I think the Rob Lowe poster hanging on Haim's closet door is funniest part.



I wouldn't call it a bad movie. It's definitely over-the-top 80s, but it is done well. It knows exactly what is and delivers. But as far as 80s movies about junior high kids going on an adventure goes, it is my least favorite. The Goonies will always be the best, and Monster Squad and Explorers are also better, in my opinion. You could throw Stand by Me in there as well, but it lacks the fantasy element.

When it comes to 80s vampire movies, Fright Night is the go-to. I also recommend Near Dark since a lot of people don't know about it. It's not a traditional vampire flick, but it's a good one and has a great performance from Bill Paxton.

Didn't she do that godawful Candyman sequel/remake/reboot/whatevs as well? Terrible film and when I heard she was doing the next 28 film, my interest immediately waned.

Since it is the Holiday Season I have been trying to watch as much Christmas content as I can lately. I just watched Feast of the Seven Fishes (Netfllx). I love this movie! I discovered it last year and it has become one of my goto Christmas movies for the rest of my life! I am not Eyetalian nor do I particularly like seafood but this movie just works for me. A Comedy/Dramadey about an Italian family at Christmas in the 70's that just perfectly captures the spirit of family and the season. I can't watch this movie and not be happy!
