On the one hand, I'm encouraged by reported use of practical effects

On the other hand, I hate that they found a narrative loophole to use the tired trope of "somber cover of a popular song"

Im way on the fence because of Burton. Its been 20 years i guess since i enjoyed a film from him and i havent seen anything since the first Alice, which i hated.

I like Michael Keaton, but I've given up on legacy sequels. Are Top Gun Maverick and Blade Runner 2049 the only good ones?

the Creed movies, I'd say

Cobra Kai has been great most of the time.
The 3rd Bill and Ted was pretty good.
It’s divisive, but I thought the last Indy was great.

I'm really looking forward to that. Viggo Mortensen is actually a very accomplished photographer, painter, and author. Curious to see how those skills transfer over to writing/directing. Also my friend Nadia is in this.

Falling (2020)
Director Viggo Mortensen

The Dead Don't Hurt (2023)
Director Viggo Mortensen

I haven't seen Falling yet. But I thought of it, because I've got 68 movies left from (watching a bunch of) 2020 now, and it's one of them.

Looks interesting enough. Emma Stone is whatever but Dafoe and Plemens, hell yeah.

Mickey, please come back and tell Joe he's an idiot for saying Plemens is whatever.

Thank you.

I like Plemens. I just felt your disrespect of Stone was uncalled for.

She's alright -- I am experiencing a little E Stone fatigue is all. Not her fault.

Argo thinks Yorgos Lanthimos should die, though. Seems a little excessive.
