  1. @Starcade It's hard for me to come up with a list of movies that I "hate" or that are my "least favorites" because I usually pre-select them out so that I do not end up watching any such movies.

    For me, the list would be :movies that I started to watch but couldn't finish" (which are movies that I usually turn off w/in the 1st 10-15 minutes).

    Off the top of my head these are a few of them:

    1) #GrandBudapestHotel (2014)
    2) #InBruges (2008) not sure I could watch #Banshees but not this one.
    3) #Her (2013)
    4) #AfterYang (2021)
    5) #HomeAlone (1990)
    6) #OBrotherWhereArtThou (2000)
    7) #MenWhoStareAtGoats (2009)
    8) #TheTerminal (2004)
    9) #TicketToParadise (2022)
    10) #BillyMadison (1995)

    It's no surprise that certain actors are featured in more than one of these but that doesn't mean I don't like other movies of theirs.

    There is also a long list of movies that I like (or at least don't hate) that I've seen & rewatched in their entirely many times over. 🤷‍♂️

    There's no accounting for "taste." 😉

  5. @RickiTarr Most of them do, tbh. I think the underlying message between "Every Frame a Painting" captured it well. (Miss that channel.)

    But seeing as I used to use 80s and 90s action movies for examples in my film class, I might be an outlier.

    Anyhoo, a few:

    #madmaxfuryroad The desert storm.
    #300 The fight on the cliff
    #serenity The Serenity dolly shot to open
    #GrandBudapestHotel Just the color design, in all of it.
    #johnwick Fights as ballet
    #matrix2 The Chateau foyer fight

    And more...

  10. CW: Sitting in Bars with Cake (mild vague spoiler)

    Bailed last night on #AsteroidCity after about 20 minutes. His movies are so hit or miss for me, and the last one that hit was #GrandBudapestHotel. Switched to #SittingInBarsWithCake, which did hit hard. It was a good gal-pal movie with a lot of heart (& heartbreak), but I liked how it set up the tedious cliche of "we gotta get you laid, girl" and then shifted into a friendship-centered story.
