What happened to your friend... the same thing goes on here.
It takes place at night in the stairwell.

I love streaming weirdass films for my friends because I’ll get comments like “I have no idea what’s going on but I’m having a good time” during the movie

the premise of alien resurrection (1997) is so forced it strains all suspension of disbelief and makes a mockery of ripley’s self-sacrifice at the end of the previous film—but the previous film is so dull and this film so interesting, and its treatment of the cartoonish premise is so attentive and responsible, that i have no grounds to criticize the “somehow palpatine returned” pretense of the narrative. this collaboration between two famously quirky filmmakers, screenwriter joss whedon and director jean-pierre jeunet, works beautifully, with jeunet’s lighthearted, almost cartoonishly heightened visuals reminiscent of delicatessen (1991) beautifully complimenting and adding liveliness to whedon’s wry dialogue and vivid character concepts. although the film smacks strongly of whedon’s now done-to-death style, prefiguring firefly and filled to the brim with quips and innuendoes, the self-effacing and fast-paced narrative is a breath of fresh air compared to the terse, self-serious previous films—and yet the film does not lose track of what is most significant to both the franchise and its own setup. with inventive, goopy visuals and heartrending scenarios, the film explores the shifting boundaries of humanity, the horror and power of being (or not being but being viewed as) a woman, violence and motherhood, and the blurred line between the erotic and horror, this time in a primarily lesbian way. the film makes sure to follow through with the implications of its excuse for bringing ripley back, that she and the alien queen were cloned from a frozen drop of her blood, by mixing up human and xenomorph traits in both cloned parties and gracefully retiring ripley from her role as exhausted final girl, making her a quasi-human thing instead. the final product is not a perfect film, with a cluttered first act and dialogue that is sometimes too clever for its own good and undercuts significant emotional beats; however, as a sequel to the alien franchise, it does an admirable job. i consider alien resurrection (1997) the third-best alien film yet created, after the first two, and i would highly recommend it

I was so caught up in my hatred of the meat industry that for a moment I lived in a world where murder was okay.
I'm reminded of the time I referred to cannibalism as "ethical meat consumption" before I remembered that murder is wrong...

some new-to-me movies I've enjoyed this year so far. reverse chronological watch order:
1. High Life (2018, dir. Claire Denis). Weird, disturbing prison ship science fiction. Sort of an anti-Interstellar; a cynical warning of where we're headed if we continue the depravity of prison slavery and exploitative science. Look up content warnings for this one if you need that sort of thing; it gets rough.
Interesting coincidence: I wrote a short story with a similar basic concept not long before this movie came out (I had never heard of it before last year). This movie is better than my story was.
2. Tampopo (1985, dir. Juzo Itami). Charming food comedy-western with alternately funny, touching, and absurd vignettes interspersed throughout the main plot. The egg scene...goodness, what a scene. This movie made me hungry; pair it with a bowl or two of ramen.
3. Harakiri (1962, dir. Masaki Kobayashi). A brutal and depressing story of a broken ronin seeking the end. If you know nothing about this movie, go into it blind. Absolutely loved the way this was shot.
4. Seven Samurai (1954, dir. Akira Kurosawa). Six samurai and Toshiro Mifune defend a poor village against bandits. Funny, exciting, sad, beautiful. One of the blueprints for modern action movies. Everything from a slew of westerns to Ocean's Eleven to A Bug's Life owes something to this movie.
5. Dr. Strangelove (1964, dir. Stanley Kubrick). Satirical nuclear black comedy that shows that "redpill volcel conspiracy freak" is a type of guy that has seemingly always existed.
6. Come and See (1985, dir. Elem Klimov). "Enjoyed" is a strong word for this one, as good and important as it is. I wrote a short letterboxd review after watching it (something I've sort of given up on after a few):
"In a movie festering with disturbing images, one of the most affecting—and certainly one of the most relevant—was a Nazi woman eating lobster as her cohorts burned a village.
Exhausting."
7. Delicatessen (1991, dir. Jean-Pierre Jeunet & Marc Caro). Post-apocalyptic horror-comedy. Extremely French. Enough piss-yellow filtering to make Vince Gilligan blush. Kind of dreamlike and hazy in the impression that it left on me. I need to watch it again I think.
8. Amores Perros (2000, dir. Alejandro González Iñárritu). Another one I wrote a letterboxd review for. Some excerpts:
"A story in three converging lanes about the abuse, folly, fickleness, and redemption of loyalty. Ignore surface-level comparisons to Pulp Fiction; structure and violence are not all that makes a movie."
"The recurring variations on the dreary post-rock guitar theme are some of my favorite pieces of movie music I've heard recently."
"Maybe skip if you habitually check whether or not the dog dies."
9. Cinema Paradiso (1988, dir. Giuseppe Tornatore). A beautiful movie about movies. Another one that made it to letterboxd. My short review:
"I've seen this movie described as 'nostalgic,' but I feel that it's rather about transcending nostalgia and accepting that you can never go back. I cried; I wished I'd watched it years earlier; I had the urge to make something and love it."
10. Crimson Peak (2015, dir. Guillermo del Toro). An absolutely gorgeous Gothic horror-romance. Del Toro's beautiful visual style fires on all cylinders here. Similar to Pan's Labyrinth, while the ghosts are grotesque, it's the human antagonists that provide the real horror (though I will say that the Big Reveal is obvious and feels almost quaint these days).
