    Holly Slept Over

    Sexy movie

    I think this might work as a nice movie to watch as a couple (IDK I'm single) to spice it up a bit

    Funny movie too

    Yasuke. Anime about a black samurai (based on a historical figure) who lived in feudal Japan. New on Netflix (down here at least) IIRC the sjws and Robs of this world were arguing over this in their internet bubble a few months ago.

    30th anniversary of the release of Boyz n da hood and T2 Judgement Day. Classic films, probably watch both this weekend, make it a annual Independence Day tradition.

    ^^classics 4 sure


    you gotta love the internet sometimes. with social media bullshit, echo chambers and what have you, I was 1997 type internet charmed when I came across this site today :

    https://www.impdb.org/index.php?title=D.A.R.Y.L.

    I was watching the 1985 family scifi movie D.A.R.Y.L. for the first time and wondered what the plane was that was used at the end of the movie

    turns out there's a community that tries to identify every aircraft in every (major) movie : the internet movie plane database

    awesome

    the plane was a Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird btw. iconic plane (?) but IDK anything about planes

    The pilot to 'Clarice' was good, it did well in terms of connecting to 'Silence of the lambs' imo. I think I'll watch the whole season.

    The Kid Detective. Nice premise.

    EDIT jfc this one is pretty damn good. Definitely stick with it even if you find the pace easy going and/or the topic childish. there's various instances of emotional pay off down the road. Great choices in music too.

    Started watching 'The Good Place'. Solid comedy series with an interesting premise.

    Good watch! good build of tension through montage trickery, midlong camera viewpoints that create the 'outsider point of view' (like in some horrors) and slow slow trickle of infor about the protagonists. just don't expect too big of a finale
