Film 📽️ THE CINEMA LOUNGE

[Lily Adler]

Have you been living in a cave? Everyone loved the Home Alone legacy sequel starring the other kid from Jojo Rabbit with a cameo from Buzz as the only returning character.

He looks like Ralphie from a Christmas Story, which actually had a pretty good legacy sequel with an awful title.

I watched Smile 2 and overall it’s a slight improvement over the first one, but I still can’t say I care for the whole concept of this series. It’s predictable, bloated and frustrating to watch.

Rewatched 1917 in 4K and I’ve warmed up to it over the last 5 years. It’s an immersive technical achievement.

Feels like a relevant video for the thread.

Started off the new year watching a genre classic for me.

The Transporter

Sure it loses the plot once it becomes romantic, but the first 45 or so still make it a worth it. Still smitten over Shu Qi.

Streaming has made most films look like birds slamming against a wall. No legs, just death. Brad Pitt and Clooney made a film together and it didn’t even make a whimper. Lawd. Not saying it should’ve, based on reviews, but you know what I mean, even that type of flick would’ve been a mini event in some sense some years ago.Eh.

Man, I thought the same exact thing last night browsing Apple+. Between that and the Matt Damon/Casey Affleck movie, it was really weird to be reminded that we had two recent movies (from pretty well-known directors) with some of the biggest stars in the world and they barely made a blip on my radar. Yeah, something about that felt kinda bleak to me.

I'm surprised someone remembers that movie.

It stars 70 year old action star, Tom Cruise.

The funniest thing is that AppleTV+ was free last weekend and I could have watched it then but I totally forgot it existed.

Just like how people forget it exists when they get it a year free with their iPhone.

Which is even more obscure than Argylle, tbh.
