Too much sanity may be madness — and maddest of all: to see life as it is, and not as it should be ~ Man of La Mancha

@TheCinesthetic This role was meant for Michael Madsen, but Travolta's simple approach is what knocks it out of the park.

Examples of an actor's limited range adding to the performance.

@spoiltkate_ John Carpenter's "The Thing". From excellent to breathtaking. Pure cinema.

Name a movie that gets better every time you watch it.

@HunterBiden My Biden 2024 t-shirt will be worth a fortune someday. For now, just a character witness.

Just saying… No Democrat has won the White House this century without a Biden on the ticket.

The A-Team is here to fix horror movies.

@ATRightMovies Into the Night, with Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Pfeiffer. No GIF available, so people REALLY have not seen it.

@MovieEndorser ...if you love irresponsible parenting.

A QUIET PLACE is a Fantastic Film

i believe in re-reading and re-watching your favourite books & movies at different stages of your life. the plot never changes, but your perspective does.

@AuthorGFAllen A Prayer for Owen Meany. Bel Canto. and those are just the ones written in the last 50 years.

Dear kids, this is Phil Hartman. He was awesome.

So stupid but it made us laugh

@storyandplot I showed this to my son (entering his senior year of college) and he could NOT relate to the degree of integrity these people were held up to...signs of the times.

BROADCAST NEWS blew me away when it was released my senior year of high school. I was a speech and drama nerd, and I thought this spoke to me as much as any John Hughes high school movie. It's smart and funny, and one of my favorite relationship triangles on film. This scene is not just merciless on Albert Brooks' character, Aaron, as he finally gets the opportunity he always wanted, and it's a disaster; it's also an exceptional example of heightening. The whole film still holds up. An undeniable classic, from James L. Brooks' script, to his directing, and the pitch-perfect performances all around. So many great lines! I still think about the characters, their relationships, and the ideas it explores. It is one of the gold standards that you hope to one day get close to in your own work. I love this movie.

@TheRoarOf1984 Disagree, but great post for scrolling the replies.

Every movie out there is SOMEONE’S favorite movie

@chrryblussm Do you want to time travel and meet genius? Then yes, you should.

should i start reading classics

@DyerbolicalDB Deadwood all day. But I did enjoy The Crazies.

Happy birthday to Timothy Olyphant. Any fans or favourite roles?

@DaveBuzan I saw it in the movie theater. Because I was in love with Peter Strauss. Still think that's legit.

"Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone" was released on this day in 1983. Fun sci-fi/adventure film from director Lamont Johnson and screenwriters David Preston, Edith Rey, Daniel Goldberg, and Len Blum. Highlights: Michael Ironside is memorable in scenery-chewing villain performance; extraordinary production design by Jackson DeGovia; rousing Elmer Bernstein score. This big budget 3-D adventure actually opened well, but was completely wiped off the box office map by the release of "Return of the Jedi" the following week. I'm certainly not going to defend "Spacehunter" as being an undiscovered classic, but it is an enormously entertaining (especially in 3-D) and fun movie.

@mikemoviez The Witch and Hereditary both have preposterous endings. So Midsommar, which has a terrifying ending, wins. But I don't "like" any of them. None are rewatchable. But Midsommar is unwatchable because it is terrifying, not stupid.

Which do you like most? 🤔

@Y2John84 I find the sound of generators traumatizing.

If you're reading this, you can probably hear this image.

@FuukTwitar I watched it last night for the first time in many years. Really powerful, on the verge of tears throughout, except when I was laughing.

Sorry not sorry, A League Of Their Own still slaps. AF.

@JoshuaBarzon People "hate" It's a Wonderful Life? I don't think those are actual "people".

People either love “It’s A Wonderful Life” or they hate it. Which person are you?
