Someone asked me that recently after we were going through Netflix and couldn't find a single movie either of us interested in. My answer was Anchorman 2, but even that ended up being disappointing, and forever ago.

I think part of that is the dawn of a future dystopia. A lot of entertainment has been rendered pretty meaningless, and in times of strife, they reveal themselves to be increasingly vacuous.

On a counternote: what movies should I be checking out (any platform)?

    Excited about watching in general or like a new movie you got hyped for? I'll assume the later and probably go with... Us? I really liked Get Out and love me some Tim Heidecker so I was really looking forward to that.

    Got a genre or a vibe you want recommended?

    El Camino and Us were both really good movies I looked forward to. I'm excited for The Many Saints of Newark

    The color out of space, it wasn't bad, it reminded me of the jeffrey coombs Lovecraft flicks like reanimated and from beyond. nick cage is a surprisingly good fit for horror movies, judging by Mandy and this.

    I’m the same way. Can’t find shit on Netflix. Although I recently watched ‘a serious man’ and enjoyed it.

    Rise of Skywalker, based on how much I loved Last Jedi. I literally could not have been more let down by that """film"""

    Mortal Engines. Loved the books.

    Was a little let down by the film but still thought it was awesome. Shame it's probably not getting a sequel.

    I'm kind of excited for Army of the Dead. I've always had a soft spot for zombie movies and the Dawn of the Dead remake (by the same director) was one of my favorites growing up.
