I forgot how many players Spielberg got for this film, even for small parts.

Jared Harris as Ulysses S Grant always startles me

Theater Camp good. But Ayo Edebiri needed more screen time.

She seemed like she was a late add and most of her scenes are self contained

Saw you started a ranked Chan-wook list! Plan on getting to The Handmaiden soon? It's astonishing.

Vengeance Series all a good watch. Decision to Leave if fantastic too. I'm also working on watching his other stuff as well

Maybe I'm just a normie, but JSA is my favorite of his so far.

Okay, Lady Vengeance pips JSA. That back half is something else.

Just watched Blue Beetle. It was pretty fun. A little too dependent on the superhero formula, but if I'm going to see that I did like to see it with the Blue Beetle. I hope they make the sequel. It would be fun to see Ted Kord in it.

Incredible movie! Kurosawa mines unbearable tension from long, seemingly uneventful takes. I am excited to finally watch my shiny new Criterion copy with a friend tomorrow.

Have you seen Pulse?

What an atmosphere! Dude makes you flinch from a glass of water. And the one scene (you know the one) got me so good, it's currently branded on my brain.

I haven't! May have to make that next (after something happy maybe)

Definitely check it out. Cure is credited with being a sort of precursor to the J-horror boom — Pulse, by comparison, is fully of that moment, but Kurosawa again imbues it with an intense sense of dread. It’s only improved in my estimation since I first saw it.

Pulse (Kairo) is so goddamn good. Fucking terrifying.

I rewatched Cure with a friend last night and...yeah, it sticks with you a bit.

Can't believe they've already made a John Fetterman movie!

Can't believe they've already made a John Fetterman movie!

Some people are complaining about the costumes, though, saying they aren't traditional.

Starting the World Cinema Project Vol. 2 i got 18 months ago lol I will probably never see the films in Vol. 1 because 5/6 films had animal cruelty to various degrees (Dry Summer and Touki Bouki being the worst). So of course the first film in Vol. 2, Insiang, starts with pigs being slaughtered in a slaughterhouse. Fortunately there was no more after that. Very good film btw.
