Yes, it has been 1 week since the last thread. Don't question me.
What have you kinosseurs been watching? How was it? Tell us!
Movies:
Wonka (2023) - Saw this one with my mom. It's a really cute family movie! Admittedly there are some deeply Marxist messages, but nothing more than intersecting the convergence of religion, commerce, and police state to protect capital and subjugate workers. Honestly didn't expect to like it, but I couldn't stop smiling. Twinky Tim is really great in this.
Chinatown (1974) - Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown . A classic noir starring (arguably) the best actor of all time, Jack Nicholson. Why did I wait this long to watch it? I though it had Chinese people and avoided it.
THX 1138 (1971) - George Lucas movie which came out 6 years before Soy Wars. Experimental and esoteric scifi (corpopunk?) dystopian movie about drugged sexless humans working in robot factories, slowly regaining humanity. I see what it was going for. Sci-fi bros can't stop jerking off over this, but it was ok. Maybe if you never read book and were in a dorm room in 1997-2009 and this hit your brain, you'd feel like you took a redpill idk.
Dream Scenario (2023) - Nicholas Cage in an A24 movie about a boring evolutionary psychology professor who suddenly starts appearing in people's dreams. He becomes a viral sensation and his life pays the toll. Story explores the theme of regular people stumbling into viral relevancy and the toll it takes on their lives, even when they have pretty much done nothing wrong. Decent laughs and Nic Cage makes a coom face.
Napoleon (2023) - Goddarn this movie was some garbage lmao. Only saving grace was Vanessa Kirby mogging the planet. Napoleon simps so hard he destroys the continent for she . Also wildly historically inaccurate.
Dave Chapelle: The Dreamer (2023) - This one was decently funny. His last special, Dave Chappelle: The Closer (2021) where he just ranted about s. Funny blowback, but unfunny show. This new one was actually pretty funny. Unfortunately he ended it with a really gay like 10 minute stool speech about chasing your dreams.
TV:
True Detective: Night Country - LOL
Reacher - (spoilers, but this show is r-slurred so who cares) Basically his Le Special Investigators Unit did like 3 months on a case 11 years ago and they immediately became family??? Frick this was a mid season. Go back to a small cast and beating up goons in small towns.
The Terror - Just started this one. In episode one, the guys who play Brutus and Julius Caesar in Rome are in a scene where someone talks about "Crossing the Rubicon" Show is pretty good though, will stick with it.
Curb Your Enthusiasm - With news that the new season will also be the last, I am in determined to catch up in time. Just started season 6 when the black family moves in. Already funnier than like all of season 5.

I fricking love The Terror. The characters are great and the mood is kino.
THX 1138 kino too, I love all the 70s dystopian movies they have great aesthetics. Watch The Andromeda Strain if you haven't yet, it's different and quite slow but I liked it a lot.
Didn't like Dream Scenario, it was too uneventful even for an A24 movie.
I've been watching Wayward Pines, it's pretty good. Good, classic, to the point, small town mystery.
Watched the first episodes of Invasion (2021), it was shit. It's like For All Mankind, a melodrama that pretends to be Sci-Fi but really it's for women.
Watched Train to Busan again, after seeing the trailer on youtube.
Watching Memories of Murder tonight.

The Terror has one of the greatest uses of the "One F bomb per season" rule that AMC had.

See if they actually focused on the internment camp like they promised it would have been better.
Also the son is such a disrespectful turd.

Memories of Murder (2003) is one of the best Korean kinos ever.
For All Mankind has that Apple budget for great lunar landscapes, but holy shit the episodes feel like they're 4 hrs long and there's so much fricking talking about nothing
