It's probably weird for people who aren't used to seeing me, but I've been modding the CineD Discord for a little while now, and people seem to think I did a good job. If anyone has any issues or suggestions feel free to contact me, I'm always happy to help however I can.

I wanted to find out how to watch the George C Scott movie Hardcore and I was very specific when I did that google search.

I can't remember who said it or whether it was even in this particular thread, but someone said they're having trouble finding the "energy" to watch movies and I'm feeling this same way recently. Watching movies at home has always been rough because it's difficult to get immersed in an environment with so much easy distraction, but now it feels even more difficult. I have almost all the major streaming services and it still feels hard to find something new to commit to watching

Hey friendos, do you have any particularly inspirational/insightful quotes from directors you could share? I'm starting to figure out some classroom materials for my new job teaching film and need some film-related wall stuff to hang around, and want to break away from infographics and junk.

I appreciate everyone congratulating Debbie Does Dagon and MacheteZombie on their new stardom as CineD Mods. This is gonna be a little transition period, as I plan to step own as CineD Mod once they're comfortable with the positions. There's nothing in my personal life that I have to take care of; no forums drama has scared me off; I'm mentally and physically fine. I just know that, like any other elected position, there should be turnover to keep things fresh and moving in a positive, progressive way. I have really enjoyed being CineD mod, through the bad and good. It's been an interesting, helluva run. I want to thank anyone and everyone who took the time to write me a kind or supportive PM or helped me out. I hope you continue to show the same support--or more!--to DDD and MZ. I plan to stick around CineD, the SA forums, so there's no goodbyes needed. I plan to keep running some of the Horror Challenge threads, and I'll probably assist with trying to make Movie of the Month catch on more (this month is Crumb, and it rules!). And I'll also be around in the discord still. Thanks for trusting me to mod for as long as I did!

The Hospital is a good semi-forgotten one, George got a Best Actor nomination for it and Paddy Chayefsky won for best screenplay. Patton though is probably his for real best and in my opinion weirdly underrated now.

Cheers to Fran, Machete, and Debbie, may you all not burn out and leave like every single CineD mod before Fran. I watched Terminator: Dark Fate over the weekend and good lord these movies are really stupid now. The first hour or so is fine, just fine, T3 levels of fine, where if you caught it on TNT you'd leave it on while folding laundry. But everything after they re-introduce Arnold is as dumb and exhausting as blockbusters get. Just endless nonsense action scenes and really dumb dialogue. I'm fascinated by how dumber each movie gets for how it hews to and ignores various bits of the Lore and how clunkily each one will homage T2.

When I was a teenager I was OBSESSED with Patton. I should watch it again one of these days.

Oh yeah, I also forgot that I watched A Simple Favor, and even though it tackles darker neo-noir subject matter (seriously, what IS with neo-noir and incest?, the overall package is lighter and fluffier than a lot of the genre, and I liked it! Feig's cinematography is flat for a lot of the conversations and you can tell where he told Anna Kendrick to just vamp, but overall it's a fun take on the genre that's not too twisty to become incomprehensible.Uncle Boogeyman posted:It’s been a few years for me but it takes a really fascinating angle at portraying the ultimate warmonger Last time I watched it, I was a full-blown Bush-loving conservative, I would bet my view on it would change now.

It's got plenty of red meat for conservatives for sure (Richard Nixon's favorite movie supposedly) but I mostly find it a rather ambiguous take on a famous historical psycho

Trying to critique this dumb movie made me feel even dumber. One of my friends really liked Dark Fate and was asking me what I didn't like about it and I didn't even have the words to describe to him how truly awful the movie is, other than repeatedly saying everything about it is loving stupid and poorly done.
