naw, for me he’s baby Mark Ruffalo.

I see the Baby Ruffalo. I finished this movie close to 2am last night. I promised a coworker I would watch it so we could discuss today.She agreed on Ralph Macchio nah on Joey Lawrence. This may be the first time ever I kind of get the appeal of Joey Lawrence.

I.. don't think any of the main characters in TATBILB are stereotypes. Peter is a very sweet twist on what would be the jock in a movie with just stereotypes. Thankfully it's not his actor who tweeted garbage either.

the more I think about that stupid girly rom-com that everyone was stanning on the more I hate it. it was stupid as fk.

i resent the fact that i was duped into watching it because it was, supposedly, radical/interesting. it's just shit.

it's full of idiots

lol...were you worried that you didn’t make it clear enough before?

The Godfather Part III is not as bad as I expected.

People love To aAl the Boys... It was playing in the place I was getting a pedicure on Saturday. I have grown fond of it. The protagonist is interesting and the male lead has an enjoyable personality (unlike a lot of rom coms and I guess young men in general in life)

I was absolutely blitzed and went on the internet. apols.

I'm a terrible drunk once I'm on my own. I just get annoyed about things.

Have any of you (or I?) recommended the Herzog volcano doc? It's great!

Josh in Chicago, Monday, 10 September 2018 13:24 (five years ago) link

I think there's some traffic on the Herzog thread.Into the Inferno is terrific!

I finished Glow and liked it. Not sure I buy Maron's character arc, but I'm in love with Alison Brie, generally loved the ensemble cast and I'm a sucker for some sentimental claptrap, so I'm IN.

Godless is good!

braunld (Lowell N. Behold'n), Tuesday, 11 September 2018 21:35 (five years ago) link

Yeah, we just raored through both series of Glow and regret not a second of it. It even made me like Maron, which is quite an achievment.

The live action version of Bleach was surprisingly awesome! Would recommend even if you're unfamiliar with the anime.

Roz, Friday, 14 September 2018 16:01 (five years ago) link

I just saw a review for Dragon Prince that positively compares it to Avatar: The Last Airbender and Justice League (presumably the DCAU version), both of which are A+ in my book. Anyone confirm?

Is the volcano in Flavortown? And does anyone lick it?

Nag Reddit (Leee), Friday, 14 September 2018 21:11 (five years ago) link

American Vandal is back now I think!

Josh in Chicago, Friday, 14 September 2018 22:00 (five years ago) link

Glad to see S2 of Aquarius got made. Digging it.

cheese is the teacher, ham is the preacher (Jon not Jon), Friday, 14 September 2018 22:59 (five years ago) link

I couldn't get into the first American Vandal but the second season is great

louise ck (milo z), Monday, 17 September 2018 02:00 (five years ago) link

What didn't you like about the first one? Love the second one so far, it's both more puerile and ... I was going to say even more ambitious with its satire, but I don't know about that. It's definitely equally smart about its stupid subject, though.

Josh in Chicago, Monday, 17 September 2018 02:02 (five years ago) link

No one has said anything about Sierra Burgess is a Loser? I started it today, but got interrupted. It's like a cyrano story with Barb from Stranger Things? And our favorite Baby Ruffalo.

Yerac, Monday, 17 September 2018 02:47 (five years ago) link

ooooh ok will watch you said the magic words ie Baby Ruffalo

omg i just watch the trailer - it’s Cyrano / Truth About Cats & Dogs ie my fave subgenre of romcom I AM SO IN also Baby Ruffalo makes it impossible for me not to now :D

That Freddie Prinze Jr. comparison, damn.

Apostle looks fucking awesome.

One bad call from barely losing to (Alex in SF), Monday, 17 September 2018 15:18 (five years ago) link

I will admit we’re totally in the everything is just a regurgitated take off of other stuff you like but come on how Wicker Man x Get Carter x the Raid not be good.

One bad call from barely losing to (Alex in SF), Monday, 17 September 2018 15:20 (five years ago) link

Volcano doc was so good

Ross, Monday, 17 September 2018 16:06 (five years ago) link

imo, American Vandal is the best original series made by Netflix so far

daavid, Monday, 17 September 2018 17:11 (five years ago) link

xxposts that was great thx Roz <3

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 17 September 2018 18:10 (five years ago) link

Guys this Sonia Burgess thing is not great
I don’t like it except for Baby Ruffalo

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 18 September 2018 02:16 (five years ago) link

sierra...sonia...whatevs

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 18 September 2018 02:17 (five years ago) link

WHat! How? The trailer makes it look so good. I haven't had the time to get past the first 10 minutes I watched yesterday.

Yerac, Tuesday, 18 September 2018 03:10 (five years ago) link

it’s boring, stilted, the dialogue is unnatural...it doesnt feel like people, fictional or otherwise.

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 18 September 2018 04:17 (five years ago) link

so i watched season 2 of atypical

i liked how the last few episodes turned into something more than autism

casey exploring her curiosity for women, listening to cure records, sam being just an awkward guy who turns into a philosopher with so much insight, which admittedly is a pretty common archetype in movies about weird high school loners turned thinkers

it definitely feels like something beyond autism, which is probably for the better

F# A# (∞), Tuesday, 18 September 2018 04:31 (five years ago) link

also no idea what cyrano means but i saw the sierra burgess trailer and it looks like they make all her problems revolve around her being overweight

not sure how much of a (good, series long) show you can make out of that premise alone tbh

F# A# (∞), Tuesday, 18 September 2018 04:42 (five years ago) link

it’s a movie fyi :)

cyrano = cyrano de bergerac ie ugly person uses attractive person to woo similarly attractive person

or the movie Roxanne if the literary reference still doesnt track

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 18 September 2018 04:52 (five years ago) link

oh my bad

F# A# (∞), Tuesday, 18 September 2018 04:58 (five years ago) link

i thought the trailer looked terrible tbh, but was curious cause... Noah Centineo.

apart from the fat=unattractive message, it's also about catfishing?

Roz, Tuesday, 18 September 2018 05:24 (five years ago) link

well, cyrano is basically about that too.

Heavy Messages (jed_), Tuesday, 18 September 2018 13:43 (five years ago) link

yep

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 18 September 2018 14:24 (five years ago) link

i watched a teen romcom, called alex strangelove, about a high school kid that was in the closet. i wouldn't recommend it highly but it has good things about it, notably one actress (the girlfriend) who i thought was great, she reminded me of alison brie. her name is madeleine weinstein and her imdb bio ends:

She would also like everyone to know she is not related to Harvey Weinstein.

The 100 is hardcore for a CW show. Five episodes in and there's a 20 minute torture scene.

louise ck (milo z), Wednesday, 19 September 2018 04:47 (five years ago) link

I simply love the 100. Skot isn’t here right now to back me up. I love how it gets right to the point in a very unscreenwriterly way, I love how casually gay and matriarchal it is, I forgive it readily for its many idiocies.

cheese is the teacher, ham is the preacher (Jon not Jon), Wednesday, 19 September 2018 14:05 (five years ago) link

speaking of terrible trailers... I really want to check out Maniac cause I love Emma Stone and Cary Fukunaga is involved but god, it looks like some horribly pretentious crap.
