TBF, they are watching It’s A Wonderful Life in Gremlins so that probably counts, right?

WW84 is bad y’all

I haven’t watched yet but I saw a weird tweet from someone saying it works better as a rom com than a superhero flick

But I was told it was the best DC movie since The Dark Knight

Kinda true. At least then we’d get another rom com instead of the millionth mediocre punching movie

Not really interested much in WW84, but Soul is very good. Some more impressive animation from Pixar and pretty moving too.

Still think Wolfwalkers is animated movie oty though.

Both of those are on the watch-list for this weekend. I only heard about Wolfwalkers through this thread, but I've been anticipating Soul all year.

I haven't watched Wolfwalkers but it did get best animated film from the New York critics association

I’ve noticed It’s a Wonderful Life cameos in Home Alone 1 & 2 and National Lampoon Christmas Vacation too. I was wondering if this is a tribute from Chris Columbus? Or maybe just coincidence.

A hard pass on It’s A Wonderful Life we have much more pressing movies to attend to thanks.

Some (probably well known) trivia, the set for Gremlins that is pictured on your screen is the same one used in Back to the Future.

Another Winner: Another Round (or Druk) with Mads Mikkelson. Part cautionary tale, part absolute blast.

I heard an interview on NPR with Mads and the director and it sounded like a fun one. Gonna have to check it out.

It's definitely more drama than comedy, and goes some relatively dark places, but when it's fun, it's FUN!

I’m about halfway through and I’m so confused.

I’m about halfway through and I’m so confused.

I found the film entertaining, but there are several plot developments, especially in the back half, that are off the rails.

WW84 is, charitably, a watchable and occasionally entertaining mess, Less charitably it was overlong and poorly plotted schlock which didn’t use any of their talent well. I really loved WW but 84 hit the worst parts of the DCEU

that's a bit of an overstatement considering the DCEU
