My wife and I watched Creep last night on Netflix and really enjoyed it. The movie does a great job at making you feel creeped out and cringey with very little effort, and on a what I assume was a low budget. Creep 2 on the other hand, not so much.

Some of the shorts go into serious uncanny valley territory but I legit thought that one was real actors. Probably harder to spot because it’s so stylized instead of going for photo realism like some of the others.

Anyone watch Hitoshi Matsumoto Presents Documental on Prime? It's really good. It's a Japanese sort of reality game show experiment. Matsumoto picks 10 comedians, invites them to spend 6 hours locked in a room. They compete for a 10 million yen pot (they all have to put their own 1 million in.) The idea is they can't laugh. The more they laugh the more they risk getting kicked out. There's only two seasons, and they're pretty short. I thought it was pretty funny.

Binged the second season of The OA and would like to thank Netflix for having enough gently caress-you-money to sink into such a project.

The first episode made me sigh, and I haven't had enough energy to watch any more. I probably will, I just... of all the ways to address the ending of last season, that may be the least satisfying one.

I liked Love Death and Robots a lot more than I was expecting to. Really I didn't think any of them were terrible. None of them really blew me away either but I thought the whole ordeal was a lot of fun to watch. Witness stuck with me the most just because the animation was so cool and it was so loving dirty. Some of the photo realistic ones were weird. Like, why is this even animated? Just looks a like a regular movie except everyone has hosed up faces. It's crazy though it was actually loving with my brain how real some of them looked.

Love Death and Robots was pretty good. I was really high but I could still tell that the writing was slacking in a few places. Still, seeing an animated anthology actually get made in 2019 more than made up for it. Suits was awesome and probably my favorite, Zima Blue was a close second. Shapeshifters was loving lame.

Is the original Mobile Suit Gundam streaming anywhere? I see remakes and sequels and other stuff, but I wanna see the original rear end Gundam. I didn't have the patience to watch it as a kid on Toonami back in the day.

I didn't have the patience to watch it as a kid on Toonami back in the day. Most anime shows have an episode where it suddenly gets better and fans will tell you as long as you get to that episode you’ll get hooked. Gunman has no such episode. It starts out pretty dumb and bad but every single episode is slightly better than the last. The quality of the show is a perfectly straight diagonal line over the course of its 50 episodes and by the end it gets so epic that your eyes are wide at the sight of fleet destroying machines and you’re streaming tears constantly because of the drama.

One thing I do want to say about love death and robots is that the title is terrible and I think i would have watched it sooner if it had a better name. Imo they should have just licensed the Heavy Metal name which would have been way cooler.

You can, however, watch Gundam: The MS 08th Team on Hulu and it's real good. I would recommend it to anyone with an interest in cartoon robots.

If you have Amazon Prime, everyone should see Cast a Deadly Spell Pretty fun made-for-HBO movie from the early 90s. Fred Ward stars as a detective in late-40s Los Angeles where magic and witches are real. Also has Julianne Moore and David Warner, directed by Martin Campbell. It can be a little cheap-looking at times, but I admire how it totally runs with the concept in full earnest.

Julianne Moore is a knockout, and Clancy Brown plays the villain. There is a still-unavailable sequel, Witch Hunt, in which Dennis Hopper replaced Fred Ward as Detective Lovecraft.

I knew it was up my alley based on the description, but I was blown away by how great it was. And though I admire the subversion of the virgin sacrifice trope, the way they went about it was verry problematic. The whole thing ends in a "thank god for statutory rape!" joke that has really not aged well. Wish the semi-sequel was available in HD. The incredibly low quality available even in  has prevented me from catching it—pretty sure it's a VHS rip.

The Dirt feels like a raunch comedy from the 70/80s and it honestly should have just deviated from trying to be a celebratory music biopic. The comedown part of the movie, basically the last 50 mins are just dull. The first part is really energetic, but lol at trying to be I dunno, redemptory to all the nasty poo poo they did.

Yeah there's a fun 30 minutes in there between "Shout at the Devil" and the car crash but they tried way too hard to make Tommy "wifebeater" Lee look like "just a cool bro" and ugh. The only one who wasn't a total piece of poo poo was Mick Mars
