I feel the same way about Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and the current day NYC aesthetic so I can't roast this person too hard

Yeah, Manhattan somehow got really beautiful in the ’80s or after.I recognize the brilliance of Rosemary's Baby but the setting is what has kept me from warming up to it. I don't care for the 60's and 70's New York aesthetic...
For anyone interested in seeing what changed and what didn't between the late ’60s and a decade ago, this photo essay is worth checking out. There are some potential spoilers in it. The apartment building that's the film's central setting is from the 1880s.

My kids (b. 2003 and 2005) really do think that the medieval era ended circa 2000.domino harvey wrote:Yes. I love that this person's idea of kids engaging with a film is asking a lot of questions about Wal-Mart, and that a film less than twenty years old offers a window into the past like the 90s were medieval times

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
TV critics strike again. I‘m glad Mike Flanagan‘s Netflix series is earning raves but it’s news to me that Robert Wise‘s The Haunting is considered to be a subpar movie:
Here's another fact: Netflix's The Haunting of Hill House is the first great horror TV show ever. The series, based on Shirley Jackson's novel of the same name (which also spawned some really subpar movies simply titled The Haunting)...

Come on, it's in black and white and by the guy who made The Sound of Music! How scary can it be?

Don't ask why I was reading Amazon Canada reviews of John Irwin's NEXT OF KIN, but I was, and the first three struck a chord in me:
The extreme, yet oddly wishy-washy nature of Christopher's observations of the blu-ray transfer in number 2 almost gave me whiplash.John

I always like this movie, I did not now that Liam Nelson was in this movie, I realized he is in this movie when I watched the movie. This movie is more less about family getting an eye for an eye more or lass and all hell breaks loose. Patric Swayze is also in this movie and with his acting you can't go wrong, good actor. It is a same cancer got him at a you age.

Better picture quality than I expected. Truly a surprisingly great transfer to blu ray for such an old movie. Definitely worth the price. I wasn't disappointed one bit. Picture quality wasn't perfect but it's the best transfer so far, and no complaints at all. Nice detail, colour, and soundtrack. All decent.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
This is, in my mind, one of the most humorous programs produced in the last 25 years. I remembered the program as a youngster, watched the first two seasons on Netflix then decided to purchase the complete series. I have not been disappointed. The entire series is family oriented so that each 22 minute program may be watched by young people under 18 years of age. There is what I would classify the level of sexuality displayed as PG-13 with no nudity to speak of. The spoken language, likewise, is not derogatory requiring minimal parental explanation for its content. There is no need for concern for violence as there is next to no harmful violence. However, if you wish to fall out on the floor to experience comic laughter, then sit back and be ready for a delightful experience with the "Wing" actors and actresses!!!

Odd, I don't remember the "Wing" actors and actresses laughing comically. They usually looked kind of stern.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
Here's a review of Invasion of the Body Snatchers posted to the BiblioCommons online library catalog. Use of a cell phone means someone is a brain-dead zombie, but using a computer to post an internet movie review apparently allows one to be an individualist freethinker. Also, this was posted this year, but the writer seems to think that Obama is at the apex of the Big Brother pyramid.
This is San Francisco today how appropriate. First movie was in Mill Valley, then in San Francisco, was the second but the message is similar to what has happened to this city, replaced by automatons, Obama voters or brainwashed group think followers. All on cell phones or echo chambers bellowing out the group think, no more emotions no more individual anything this is San Francisco. This is why this movie frightens me it is our reality.
Once, the bastion of free will and individualism this city represents conformity and group think, over 50 year of liberal and democratic/progressive ideals we have created a frightening hell on earth. Do not think different, do not be yourself if it is contrary to the Obama voter pod people. Glued to their cell phones(like the old ankle bracelets) we now pay for them to track us, every cell phone keeps a trace of juice through it for the memory. This allows Big Brother to track you, every Obama voter pod person spews the same messages like they were brainwashed. This movie frightens me because it is real. This is why this movie scares me more than big budget ones, it is like Orwell's 1984, Huxley's Brave New World.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
As a lover of parataxis this really caught my eye.
Homosexual Overtures
Ian McKellen is gay in this movie. He was the director of the Frankenstein movie. He lives in a house with a studio and a swimming pool. He hires a gardener for the lawn and landscaping problems. McKellen is ill. There is an electrical storm in his head. And he is a "dirty old man" with his homosexual needs. McKellen bonds with the yard man. There is an elaborate party for the Frankenstein cast. McKellen does not want to live with his physical illness and contemplates taking an overdose of his medication. The movie is tastefully done and well worth the viewing.

Eh, I only want a 4K version of this for Emily Blunt. I've masturbated to the 4K versions of Sicario, Huntsman, and Girl On The Train way too many times. I need more Blunt on the format.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
It’s a weird coincidence, though, because I want more Julie Andrews on UHD for the same reason.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
This Letterboxd reviewer watched Scary Movie every day for 30+ days in a row, and is aiming for 100 viewings this year. I remembered liking it somewhat on original release, but having watched it last night for the first time since then, I think I'll be tapping out at twice in a lifetime.31 Days of Scary Movie is Complete! It’s actually more like 33 because I started on September 29th lol I also watched it more than once a couple days too. This brings me to 97 total viewings this year. We almost made it ma!
Having said that, I noticed that Netflix has added all 5 movies (I had no idea there was more than three) and I'm somewhat curious. Do the later ones have any redeeming qualities? I mean, if the first one was utterly juvenile rubbish, it doesn't bode well for the output after that, does it?

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
If you like non ending (No seriously) poop jokes then yes. Also there's some homophobic stuff too. It's a time capsule for sure but the Brokeback stuff was tasteless even then.Cameron Swift wrote: ↑Tue Nov 06, 2018 3:49 pmHaving said that, I noticed that Netflix has added all 5 movies (I had no idea there was more than three) and I'm somewhat curious.
