Clerks is fine, the first 20 minutes of Chasing Amy are great ("what's a nubian?"), Mallrats is decent-ish, the animated Clerks show was great, everything else he's done is mega-trash. Tusk and Jay and Silent Bob Reboot are absolutely two of the worst movies I've watched to completion.

Oh, I guess Dogma was okay too, but I haven't seen it in over a decade and I bet it has aged terribly

Dogma was enjoyable when I was 17. Idk about now. loving Red State, Tusk, and any version of Jay & Silent Bob all stink. Actually one of his better movies since Clerks is probably Jersey Girl in that it’s just a mediocre movie about a single dad. It’s not great by any means, but it’s watchable and hard to poo poo on it.

They must have just taken them off, but they had the Dead or Alive and Battles Without Honor or Humanity movies series and those are excellent. They get a lot of good international horror each month. If you're limited on time and haven't seen any of them, at least watch the Classics and any of the others with a * next to the title. I'm not a giallo guy though, so maybe someone else here can suggest some of those titles.

I know it is old now but I just rewatched End of the loving World since my girlfriend never saw it and just wanted to say that if you missed it a few years ago it is definitely worth a watch. I actually appreciated it more the second time especially season two and how it focused on how the characters dealt with trauma.

Apparently I had never seen all of Dirty Harry before because a lot of it was new to me. What an insanely fascist movie. I had rewatched The Naked Gun last week so a lot of the DH scenes were hard to even take seriously.

Apparently it was originally shown on a UK network and didn’t receive much attention, but then got a lot of press once it got on Netflix. But I thought the second season was a letdown and unnecessary to make in the first place, so I just sort of forgot about it. Based on the reviews I read it seems like that’s a pretty common opinion.

First:  Second: Season 2 has a 91% rating on rottentomatoes (whatever that means) Third: Season 2 is fantastic and is necessary because its all about Alyssa dealing with the trauma that she went through in season one and was left unresolved.

Second season of EFW was fine but definitely unnecessary. S1 was awesome and one of the few shows that lives up to it's trailer.

It's like something from another dimension. Same with West Wing now - feels like it was sent straight from the Elemental Plane of Naivete

Big Mean Jerk posted:Of the stuff I've watched: I'd like to add Cursed Films to this list. It's a documentary series about horror movies with a reputation for troubled productions and, in some cases, a supernatural influence that extends beyond the film. It could've been a sensationalist Ghost Hunter mess, but it's a very reasoned and skeptical show that tries to debunk the notion that there's anything paranormal around these films. It's a new series and there are only three episodes at the moment (The Exorcist, The Omen, and Poltergeist), but I'm giving it a recommendation based on what little I've seen so far.

I thought Tiger King was an enjoyable look into the life of an egomaniac but I agree that the treatment of Baskins was it's biggest failure. The evidence against her is based on some pretty big assumptions and are coming from the most unreliable people imagineable who are extremely biased.

The Clerks Animated show was also the start of the persecution complex he carries around to today. Clerks Animated was a contractual obligation forced on ABC by Smith and Weinstein as part of the terms for Miramax dumping Dogma at Disney's request. Smith spends a good chunk of the commentary tracks for Clerks talking about how no one in Hollywood respects him and it was an artistic travesty that his show was canceled after two episodes but Family Guy gets an Emmy nod(before getting canceled after 12 episodes. )

Watched Blow Out on Pluto TV. It's an old Brian De Palma flick about an audio engineer for a lovely horror movie company who accidentally records a suspicious car accident that leaves a prominent politician dead while he's out recording sounds for a movie he's working on. There's a handful of things wrong with it, but as a whole that movie still holds up incredibly loving well. Approaching the Noir mystery story from the perspective of an audio engineer is such an inspired choice and I absolutely loved when the movie got into the nitty gritty of the audio editing and investigation process. It also has one hell of a loving ending. I've been liking Pluto TV quite a bit. There's a lot of lovely channels to sift through if you miss channel surfing and a handful of pretty decent channels like the dedicated MST3K channel. I've been watching the old 80's Poirot movies on there as well which are available on demand, which are a lot more racist than I remember, but still enjoyable whodunnits. Unfortunately the movie I dowoaded the service to watch, Dredd, is only available in spanish for some reason, but I'm probably gonna keep using it anyways.

I've caught a lot of campy old horror movies I otherwise would never have seen.
