Candy Cane Lane

Well, one of the better new Christmas movies I have seen in a while I have to say. Basically it’s typical Eddie Murphy meets Jumanji with a huge bath of Christmas sprinkles emptied over it. Also stick around for the end credits for bonus scenes.

Beau Is Afraid

I enjoyed the movie, all 3 hours of it, but I literally have no clue as to what I just saw other than countless mindf:asterisk_symbol:cks and whf/wth moments. Beautifully made and filmed but - even taking into account this is arthouse - what was it really? Sure, the synopsis pushes you in a certain direction as does the plot, but if anything this was maddening. If that was the intention, well played Ari Aster, well played.. :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Concrete Revolutio

So to clear things up: The last 11 episodes in Season 1 are actually the 11 episodes of Season 2. Somehow they ended up in S1. To put it in other words, just discard episodes 1x14-1x24 listed here, after 1x13 you will be watching 2x01 and up. Ganbatte yo!!

The Tale of John and Marie

A beautiful fairytale that keeps inspiring to this very day. If you can find it, this is definitely a title to have your kids watch and stick around as you might enjoy it all the same.

Definitely. Not. Antwerp. :rofl:
But let’s write that off as fiction.
Otherwise lovely opener for the 2nd season. :blush:

American Horror Story: Season 11

First off, it’s good this story (or a story like this for that matter) is being told. However, to me it feels too far off from what an ‘American Horror Story’ should be about. Instead of making this a season, I would have rather seen it labeled as a side story or a spin off I suppose, or as a show with no ties to this series. Because it definitely deserves it’s spotlight, but show it for what it is as people are now watching it with the wrong expectations. :thinking:

Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical

A refreshing adaptation of the award winning novel. Fun to watch. That said, when put side by side to the original movie adaptation from the 1990s, which is pretty timeless same as this musical adaptation is, I have to say that 90s movie is the best between the two. That being my personal preference. :slight_smile:

American Horror Story: Season 8

Easily the best season yet! Love how previous seasons are tying together in this season making it all one big story instead of each season being their own. Just wish they’d let go of the vocal saying ‘weird shit’ on repeat in the show’s op/ed. so friggin’ annoying! :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

This made me think of the Little Nemo cartoon us 80s kids are likely to remember from our childhood. https://trakt.tv/movies/little-nemo-adventures-in-slumberland-1989
I suppose this is an adaptation or remake if you will and worth the watch if you liked that. Still, don’t get too hung up on the original storyline and try to think of this as something new. :kissing_heart:

Parallel World Pharmacy: 1x09 The Story of a Certain Wicked Man

It’s good to finally see Nederland written in English subtitles, instead of simply putting Holland or Netherlands. :muscle_tone1::thumbsup_tone1:

Partly confused, partly in two minds about this flick. I will just write it off as an alternate universe or something because the Shazaam origin story doesn’t seem to fit the previous movie(s) and the other characters seem to be a bit off as well. Suppose without any knowledge of previous movies with these characters it’s pretty much okay as a stand alone watch, though. :thinking:

Fallen

I saw this show but oddly instead of 5 episodes of 45 to 50 minutes, it was 3 episodes of roughly 80 minutes. Possibly a regional difference?

It still saddens me this show got canceled, it's truely iconic and belongs to my favorite shows ever.

A cute scifi movie. Enjoyed it more than perhaps I should, because despite of some inconsistencies I am a sucker for flicks like these. :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

From the intro, synopsis and trailer the series seems very scify’ish. Well, there certainly are some elements to it, sure, but my bubble was burst in a sense that the series dove into those elements too little. It is mostly a mystery series, leaning towards detective/police, with a hint of drama and occasionally an action scene. In the end, it leaves me with a ‘meh’ feeling: it’s an okay watch just not what I had expected (or hoped) it to be, based on again the intro, synopsis and trailer.

Hocus Pocus 2

This is an amazing sequel, totally worth the watch! Gotta love the Sanderdon Sisters! :black_heart:

Predictable plot, has some nicely done jumpscares. Saw it in the cinema but this would be better at night home alone instead of the snickering fools in the cinemaroom destroying any carefully built tension so my advice is to wait for the Blu-Ray.

Checking the movie in the cinema tonight as they re-released it - this time in 4K 3D HFR Atmos. It is most definitely amazing to see it like this and a great way to refresh my memory in anticipation of the upcoming Avatar 2.

Binged the entire 3 seasons in 18 hours. One of the aliens sounds a lot like Rick from the Rick & Morty cartoon. Speaking of.. If you enjoy Rick & Morty, this show is a safe bet imo.

The Cave of the Golden Rose 5

I was a tad disappointed with this one, as oppose to the previous ones that were all great! If you've been chronologically watching these and made it up to here, recommend not to watch this one - it's better to remain in the buzz from the previous ones. x

The first 40 minutes I thought I was watching ‘Antebellum’ with a different name. The pace was higher though and indeed this is a different movie. :sweat_smile:
