Haven't watched any of the Thor movies yet. Same with Megamind (2010). But the others are very good. Welcome to my WL.

I went to see L’immensità at our local indie theatre (which is a converted drama theatre from the 1930s).

I picked it randomly off their page because I like to just spend an evening with whatever acclaimed or B-movie they're showing. It turned out to be a lovely Italian coming-of-age film about a trans boy dealing with, among other things, getting a crush on the daughter of some local migrant workers and trying to protect his stunningly gorgeous mother (played by Penélope Cruz, of course) from a father who's getting too close to abusive for comfort. It falls into that category of quiet, artistic slice-of-lifes that are often a hit at the Cannes festival. I really enjoyed it.

Just a couple of days ago, I did an Indiana Jones movie marathon, but I haven't watched the new one yet.
Plus, I rewatched the Rush Hour trilogy. Don't blame me I'm just a sucker for action-packed buddy cop movies.

The first Rush Hour actually turns 25 in a few days. Crazy where the time goes. Welcome to my WL.

The Princess Bride.

Oooooooooh I watched that movie for the first time (!) a few months ago. I expected to be disappointed by how hyped and quoted-memed the movie is, but it was just joyful. Shortishs, character-driven, genuinely witty and overall kind :)

I usually have trouble with non-animated media (I get really immersed and suffer quite a bit), but The Princess Bride is one of the few movies I can safely enjoy. I think it's because a lot of the time, the characters are just... having fun.
During my holiday, I was knitting a scarf. I like watching something while knitting, but it can't be new or I'll get distracted. I didn't have wifi, so watching the same old youtube musicals I've gone through a thousand times wasn't an option. Just in case, I checked the available movies - and there it was, The Princess Bride. My parents would come back into the room and find me watching the same movie for the 324295th time. It was so, so fun.

I literally had to bribe my gf to watch it for the first time last year because she was convinced it was going to be a trainwreck.
It's timeless because it doesn't rely on special effects or gimmicks that age badly. It's a classic story of adventure, humor and humanity. Can't ask for much more than that

Your gf thought it was going to be a trainwreck? Inconceivable!

She probably doesnt know what "trainwreck" means, and kept using the word anyway.

For some reason I wasn't a big fan when I watched The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (2015). Might be time for a rewatch. Welcome to my WL.

Oh yeah, gotta get around to watch this, but it's a 3 hour action movie and I'm not a big fan of action movies, so I haven't been in the right mood for it yet. Welcome to my WL.

There Will Be Blood 2007
The movie was fantastic, featuring exceptional acting from the retired actor, Daniel Day-Lewis.

Great movie! And DDL is just amazing in everything he's in. I hope some day he'll get the itch to start acting again, but until then, if he's happy with what he's doing now, it's all good. Welcome to my WL.

Had to check my trakt.tv account, but according to it, was Hacksaw Ridge. Def didn't like it, the one before (Banshees of Inisherin) was much better

I liked both of those a lot. It's crazy that Banshees was nominated for 8 Oscars and didn't win a single one of them. Welcome to my WL.
