HELTER SKELTER & CHILL

I've been wanting to watch this movie for ages. Whenever I looked for somewhere to stream Helter Skelter I couldn't find it. But it's on Fandor. The film was everything I wanted based on what I'd seen of the visuals. I'll for sure be adding this to my eye candy movie rotation. I need more movies that are always visually gripping from frame one to frame done.

Illumination/Universal The Secret Life Of Pets 2015 Norman TV Mini Movie Review

Who’s Ready For Hamster Reality TV!!… Huh? Guinea Pig? Really?So MAYBE flipping the switch to start my Illumination reviews once per month is hitting the Easy Button. But I need to grow my The Animation Station members on Facebook so… On the first movie disc we have three mini movies… ONE of which is actually tied to The Secret Life Of Pets. The other two are for movies I could review… Over my…

Sonic Movie 3 first impressions 🔥💙🦔🖤

YouTube randomly suggested a full-length anime film (Junkers Come Here) to me and I went into it blind, but loved it. A very funny, charming, bittersweet movie with a young girl whose parents both work and are always too busy. She deeply cherishes a memory from when she was 5 years old, because that was the last time they went out together as a family.

Hiromi is 11 years old. She acts calm and mature (but in a well-written way, believable to her age!), but she's really just a lonely kid. She spends her days with her (secretly talking) schnauzer dog and the comically lovesick maid, and has an (unrequited, as he's too old for her and just sees her as a kid) crush on her tutor.

Junkers the dog has the power to grant just three wishes. Maybe.

The loneliness is pretty relatable as a former latchkey kid with no close friends who mostly spent time with cats and maids...

Absolutely beautiful, down-to-earth art and animation, even the body language is very realistic. Tender little film about growing pains.

Don't get me wrong, there's something fascinating about seeing the way a creator's mind works, and seeing King's vision for some of his stories is kind of...mental?

You can almost tell when the cocaine was kicking in and not kicking in, let me tell ya.

I wonder if it was around the time the confetti started raining, or the bushes began to move.

With the Oscars this weekend, I want to take a quick minute to talk about why I loved the film Anora. There’s magic in how it catches you in its whirlwind and invites you to dream alongside Anora. It dares you to believe that maybe someone like her - so strong willed yet young and naive as a sex worker - could have a happy ending. And as the film progresses and we fight our perceptions of who we’re seeing and what their motives are, the ending comes like the hardest burst bubble.

I saw someone say that Anora is ‘emotionally repressed’ and that’s what the ending is about. That’s not how I see it. I think the ending is just the culmination of reality hitting all of us, like a smack in the face. Ani let herself believe things could be different and she then fought, tooth and nail, for herself. She didn’t win, though. The weight of reality collapsed in on her in the end. And so I think the film is a tragedy as much as it is a comedy, with the perfect contrast of the beauty and cruelty of life and its heartaches, in a zany little whirlwind that is as fun and sexy as it is devastating.

You know how one should never trust the way certain trailers advertise an animated film?

Yeah, don't let the "silly" vibes from Transformers One fool you. This is hands down one of the most lovely surprises, animation wise, I've seen in 2024, overall. They make Optimus & Megatron's foundation of friendship feel genuinely organic, which is all the more heartbreaking seeing it go down the inevitable drain. That entire third act alone cements it not only as a great origin story for Autobots VS Decepticons, but becoming unquestionably my new favorite Transformers film, too.

GO SEE IT. DON'T LET THIS SHIT FLOP! WE NEED MORE STUFF LIKE IT!

Fujoshis in this house, please drop a like/comment. Recommendations for fellow fujoshis wouldn’t be bad either, put them on to something nice.

Fun fact: KinnPorsche remains my all time fav. Your thoughts?

Let’s not forget Quickly Wear The Face of The Devil. I have a lot of favorite books, too many to count.

Happy ranting 🦋

I finished the alien movies so here is my ranking and opinions that nobody asked for

1: Aliens (1986)

10/10

RAAAHHHHH This movie was so good on so many levels. The attention to detail, the acting, the visuals, and the little dashes of comedy made this movie so fun to watch. I was on the edge of my seat watching this movie. The twists in this movie had me SHOCKED and the emotional moments between the characters had me in tears. The ending made me so emotional, if you’ve watched it you know which part I’m talking about. This is without a doubt my favorite in the franchise.

2: Alien (1979)

9/10

Another great movie. I love the visuals and the absolutely ICONIC scenes (iykyk). Ripley looked SO GOOD in this movie, I cannot stress that enough. Ripley’s relationship with her cat, Jones, reminded me of how I am with my cat. I was rooting for the cat the whole time tbh. This movie was so memorable and engaging. I do have some questions about WHY THE HELL miners were acting like astronauts, but whatever. Also, who the hell in the costume department gave Sigourney Weaver that small ass pair of underwear??? It was like she was wearing floss.

3: Alien 3 (1992)

6/10

I don’t even know where to begin with this movie. Compared to the first two movies this is absolute rubbish. There were so many inconsistencies in the plot, the CGI was somehow worse than the 1979 movie, and there was a scene where someone tried to rape Ripley. It was entertaining at times and it is important to the story, but there were so many things that could have been done differently to make the movie better. It had potential. There were times where I had no idea what was going on and I was so confused by what was happening. There were moments when my face only looked like this, 🤨.

4) Alien: Resurrection (1997)

4/10

Why, just why. This was even more unnecessary than the third movie. There was no need for all this. Nothing made sense at all, and it was clearly a last ditch effort to make money off of a finished franchise. The action was entertaining at times but not enough to make me want to rewatch it ever again. I want that 1 hour and 49 minutes of my life back.

Anyway Ellen Ripley is fine asf and yall need to stop sleeping on her. Watch the first two movies you won’t regret it.

Also, this is not shame anyone who enjoys the final two movies, this is just how I feel about them.

Ultimate actual mini review of Hitcher (1986)

Obsessive blond man psychologically tortures Ponyboy for a hour and a half

Great movie! Felt dread in the pit of my stomach/stressed but that’s as you should feel by design. There were some great shots cinematography wise - particularly the ending/credits. I also like how it’s selective in what it choses to show, where your brain fills in the rest.

God one of the best moments of this is when Jim looks into the car, blood falling on his sneakers and he stumbles back and throws up. You don’t need to see what he saw to understand or feel what you’re supposed to.

I love how it doesn’t over explain to the audience but at the same time I wish you explained a little because I want to know what the fuck John’s deal was. I have several theories but still. Same goes for Jim honestly as I first thought he was just a runaway kid with a stolen car and Chicago was a lie but then Chicago isn’t a lie but he doesn’t really act like ddjdkkdkdkd idk there’s a lot of interesting unknowns about him. I think I get it but do I?

Just proves it’s a good movie I guess, still thinking about it lol

80. Shampoo (Hal Ashby, 1975)

Another Hal Ashby “satire” that looks like a million bucks but has nothing to say. Like...I get it, these vapid LA elites only care about beauty and fucking, and election day is about cocktail parties and not voting, and none of them know a damn thing about what's going on in the world, but there's nothing here to suggest that the film knows what's going on in the world either. There's the specter of Nixon, but no indication as to what Nixon is supposed to represent. What should these people care about? What are they ignorant of? Rating: 6.8/10

[belovedcarrion]

I've been on a huge horror movie kick and I'm honestly considering just starting to rate them on here

That way I have an easy way to refer back to the films I enjoyed/scared me without having to actually, like, remember them

Cause my memory cannot be trusted. The second I finish a movie it's on the clock. At any moment it could be swallowed by the sands of my mind only to reemerge two years later in a random conversation about something completely unrelated

Rewatched The Powerpuff Girls Movie today, still a fun, colourful, and even emotional and touching movie!

Bubbles receiving Octi and kissing the Professor's cheek and calling him Dad is still one of the most heartwarming scenes…

The genuine fear and concern in the Professor's voice when he's sent away to jail, worrying about his daughters left alone…

The Professor talking to the girls about how hard it is for people to accept something/someone different and how they need more time to understand them and all his fretting over how the girls will do on their first day ("They're special--really special...") is pretty poignant, given they're that way by they're very nature, feels like a good allegory for those born markedly "different." I wonder if it's one of the reasons I'm so attached to this...

Also, realizing that Mojo Jojo's manipulation of the girls really can fool kids (so the ominous smirk in the shadows is necessary…)

Never read the newspaper before, but love the easter eggs and foreshadowing (the apes at the zoo!)... given Ace later joins the Gorillaz briefly, does this absolutely make The Gorillaz canonically part of the PPG's world? Ace leaving behind a life of crime to be a musician, after such a troubled childhood, is pretty great.

Also, got to appreciate the animators venting. Knowing it had such a tumultous production, even though I personally loved this movie, it makes you more sympathetic and forgiving of flaws!

Spaceman (2024, March; Netflix)

Why does Hanuš the space-spider never call Jakub the Czech cosmonaut, Jakub? And Hanuš instead keeps calling Jakub "skinny man"? I don't protest this about the movie. No, I think I love it.

Also I love how all the dialogue feels translated. As if it's not natively written in English. The post-neo-Soviet vibe, it fits the narrative so well.

In fact I think I'd love watching the movie with Czech audio and English subtitles. I wonder if that's possible... I suppose it's subtle but it would require me hunting for the Czech audio, which I'm 99% sure exists.

I also love the movie's subtext-dialogue about the notions of love, relationship, loneliness, attachment, self-centeredness, touch, beginning & end, cosmology, and so on and so forth.

So much to think about. It's like, I myself had to watch this in a couple of sittings, and I just had to watch it like two, three times to catch what I want to catch out of it...
