Dune if adaptions allowed. The Creator if completly new. In cinema of course.
I watched The Union on Netflix last night. It was not good.
But that is not a diss on original movies or even Netflix movies I was just not in the mood to search too much. A good original Netflix movie that I still think about it regularly was Annihilation, it really left a mark on me.
Let's Start a Cult, rented it on yt I think. It was decent! It honestly looked pretty good for how low the budget was, and it was pretty funny. Not the most thoroughly written or plotted movie, but still very enjoyable.
This year I would've loved to see A Real Pain but it was only showing at one theater near me and only for one showing that I couldn't make. For original movies I actually had access to in theaters, last year I saw Dream Scenario, American Fiction, Polite Society,, Theater Camp, Zone of Interest, Problemista and Poor Things. All great. I also watched Rotting in the Sun on Mubi's app and it was just okay.
I Saw the TV Glow. Watched it at home and then in theaters when the theater near me did another run of it. Best movie of the year and my new favorite. Arguably the best trans representation in all of cinema, truly a masterpiece
I watched "city of darkness" in the movie theatre two days ago, man that was shit. The trailer is all you need.
Home for the Holidays, saw it Thanksgiving Day using... piracy and Jellyfin.
I've seen other films since, but Transformers One isn't exactly original.
It's good tho.
As a jaded adult TF can, TF1 was the movie I didn't know I needed, and in perfect poetic irony Hasbro has pulled the plug
The best TF movie since the original G1 movie and all done lol
In theaters? Speak No Evil. In general I watched Lars and the Real Girl like a week ago.
Asteroid City. Theatre. Weird but entertaining / good.
They see that retromarketing works, so they keep doing it
Memoir of a Snail at a theater a few weeks ago. It was a good movie and my partner and I enjoy going to the theater, I regret nothing.
One new IP coming right up!
Here you go... Rebel Moon
Enjoy
(jkjk I love new IP but not all of them are bangers)
The Substance
Define "people." The biggest box office hits have been underbaked trash.
a Serbian film.
Don't watch movies cuz
- far away
- don't know what to see
- Don't have anyone to go with
- Not available in turkey aw shit
I'm ok with number 3.
I hate remakes, I normally don't watch them. Even sequels, especially 3rd or more.
But I believe people - generally - do want to watch remakes, (or formualic films based on cartoons), since that's all I ever seem to hear about. People seem a lot more likely to talk about "captain bat-spider 5 the egg-sack years" or "starwars the phantom plot connexion " than anything that seems intertesting to me.
I used to live by a cinema that did cheap mondays a few years ago, I think maybe 'Looper' and 'Sightseers' I remember seeing there most recently. I've doubt I've seen a new film since then.I think they're 'original ish'?
I don't even know where my nearest cinema is in this town, I think theres a small artsy one in town, but for proper cinemas i think you need a car drive out into the sticks fuck that.
All that aside, I liked lethal weapon 5 more than any other lethal weapon film. Does that count?
A lot of it has been in horror.
I LOVED Smile and Smile 2, and enjoyed the hell out of *Abigail *and M3gan. Another good one is Happy Death Day.
Bad Genius was fun, as was Wolfs.
There's a wealth of original content out there.
That shading work on the meme tho, excellent
There are original movies? Movies that don't follow the same old 2 peak / 3 act structure?
Round and Round, a Hallmark Hanukah time-loop Rom Com that is immeasurably better than it has any right to be. Seriously worth a watch, as is Hallmark's previous and first Hanukah movie, Hanukah on Rye.
I watched Oliver! the 1968 musical a few nights ago, but it's an adaptation of a very famous novel, and based on a Broadway play of it too.
