Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes

Really enjoy this trilogy.

Watched 65. Mixed feelings. The film falls squarely on the shoulders of the two leads, and the fact that they did such a great job is what saves this mess of tired tropes and plasticky CGI dinosaurs. I liked it, overall, and especially enjoyed some of the more ridiculous moments towards the end, but this would've failed completely with a different set of actors.

The Last of TyrannosaurUs

It Follows

First time. Hope it’s a good one.

I was entertained, about at the level of The Babadook I thought, maybe slightly more fun, but not scary at all.

Watching Selma. Solid movie about Martin Luther King Jr.

The Vanishing (2018). Other than the jittery camera work and uneven editing, it's pretty good so far. Interesting premise.

The original Danish film (late 80s) is legendary, did you know about this? You should check it out sometime

I did not. Maybe I will.

tree, pause the 2018 version and go watch the original. Return to the remake after you see the original. Seriously!

But I'm already almost done with this one. What's the original called? Is it free on Amazon like this one to stream? probably not

tree_ · **Posted:** Fri March 24, 2023 4:45 pm

So I looked into it and it turns out that's a completely different story. This is about three lighthouse keepers. 88 vanishing does look good though. I think I remember hearing celebs I like talking about it in podcasts.. I'm thinking either Tarantino or C.K.

The Argonaut · **Posted:** Fri March 24, 2023 4:47 pm

oh, whew. Yeah, check out the 1988 original. The 1993 remake is not worth it

2018 gerard butler THE VANISHING surprised me. Entertaining movie.

Watching John Wick for the second time ever. Not seen any of the sequels.

After this I’ve got 20 movies left from 2014, 10 I’ve seen before, and 10 I’ve never seen.

I wasn't prepared for how good that was going to be. Jesus.

tree_ · **Posted:** Fri March 24, 2023 7:48 pm

It's killing me that I can't remember in what podcast I heard all about this movie. It's almost like I'd seen it before, the way they described it in such detail.

tree_ · **Posted:** Fri March 24, 2023 9:35 pm

Oh it was the joe and ranaan podcast

John Wick is a cool movie. Proper old school action, with a modern look and feel.
