The Movie (and TV show) Watching Thread

[Lexii, harbinger of chaos and sexual anarchy]

It's mostly been big movies from the lat couple of years that for one reason or another I couldn't see at the theater when they came out

Captain Marvel, Ant-Man and the Wasp (the last two MCU movies I hadn't seen, other than Hulk), Shazam, Moana, Onward, Despicable Me (1), The Wave (2015), Alice through the looking glass, Into the Woods and maybe a couple more

Other than Alice 2 and the second half of Into, I liked all of them

Update:

Extraction, 5/10 but I'm definitely not the best person to judge a pure action movie. Quite a few funny or cool parts, but very stupid plot and weak characterization

Angry Birds, it started out quite good but after the first 10 minutes I thought it was just meh 4.5/10

Terminator, I hadn't watched it in many years and I had vague memories of all 3 movies mixed up with bits of trivia from pop culture and YT videos. 5.5/10

Esperando la Carroza 6/10

Space Jam 2.5/10 OK concept, but I found it very full and rarely chuckled or felt any other emotion watching it and the plot is too simple to justify the movie's length, especially when compared to better animated movies

Bad Boys (1995)

2nd Update:

McFarland USA: 8/10
Death Wish (2018): 4/10
Going In Style: 6.5/10
RoboCop (2014): 5/10

Batman Vs Superman: 3/10, a bloated mess that didn't make me feel anything for any of its mostly unsympathetic and uninspiring characters (other than cringe for Wex Luthor), most of the dialogue was mediocre to bad, stupid plot, villains that were either cringe-worthy or completely unremarkable. OTOH. The only part that I enjoyed (that wasn't for its cringiness [MARTHA, JL pseudo-trailer and Wex] ) was the first climax [the right scene between the main characters], until it got to the dialogue-hevay part MARTHA


Ralph breaks the internet: 7.5/10, had a blast with the first 2/3 of the movie, but the second part got a lot slower and less entertaining

Coco 7.5/10
Triple Frontier:3/10
Sleepy Hollow:4.5/10
Batman Begins:5/10

I tried watching Downsizing, couldn't go past the 15 minute mark due to the atrocious dialogue. I also watched a few movies but none of the ones I hadn't already seen were particularly amazing

Batman Begins 5/10
The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water 4.5/10, it has quite a few fun moments but a lot of it felt like q regular episode that went for too long and the live action scenes weren't great (but I've never been a fan of that pirate guy)
King Arthur: Legend of the Sword 6/10, an unusual take on a familiar tale, quite interesting and generally fun despite some clear issues
Mute 5/10, really cool looking, some interesting characters, and a few fun scenes, but the "main" plot is fairly mediocre and generic below the shiny surface
Coffee and Kareem: 5/10
Spirited Away 6/10
Toy Story 3 (rewatched)

Gerald's Game 6/10, a good movie with an unusual plot that manages to stay suspenseful through most of the movie, very good acting by the two main characters, although it would've easily gotten a 6.5 if the last 10 minutes were cut completely

Michael: 4/10, imaginative plot but I didn't find it very successful as a comedy

Raiders of the Lost Ark 4.5/10, I couldn't get very invested a lot in the plot and I didn't find the characters memorable at all

Eurovision The Story of the Fire Saga 3/10, but I'm generally not a fan of Will Ferrell's movies and Will's character didn't seem to belong to the rest of the movie's universe, the songs were quite good though

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat 7.5/10, yeah,  it's a fluffy extremely cheesy direct to video musical, but it rejoices so wonderfully in its cheesiness, it's has plenty of laughing out loud parts and the general melody of the songs is great and a total earworm

The Laundromat 5.5/10, the smaller plots are decent to good and most of the actors sell their roles, but it's weakened by a big lack of cohesiveness and very blatant exposition moments by Banderas and Gary Oldman that go for up to 5 minutes at a time, in a movie that's only 90 minutes long

The Incredibles 2: 7/10
Hacksaw Ridge: 7.5/10

Pulp Fiction: 5/10, the good parts were good but nothing amazing, but a lot of the time it was simply a meandering mess
