what a sad state our movie industry is in

The Holdovers is the only decent movie listed unless you are 8 and then you could add Barbie

Saw Anatomy of a Fall.  Don't get it.  I feel like now there has to be one token foreign language film.  If it's one of the 10 best, ok.  But I just find it hard to believe that every year there is 1, and only 1.  Either seems like it should have been in Best Foreign Language, or there should be years where there are multiple.  The actual movie, I didn't find all that good either.  I get the Best Actress nomination, but not Best Picture

My wife and I watched Kelce on Amazon Prime the other night. Really enjoyed it. We were a little surprised that it was less about "the brothers" than it was about Jason Kelce specifically and Travis was merely a supporting character. But that's not a bad thing--after watching it, I think that was absolutely the right way to go. 

Recommend it if you're interested. Talked a lot about his potential retirement decision from that year, which has now turned into his actual retirement as of yesterday.

Yes. Followed him through the course of the 2022 season and into the postseason.

He is almost certainly going to be the third man in the booth for Amazon's NFL games this year

  • Paul Giamatti, The Holdovers

  • Da'Vine Joy Randolph, The Holdovers


Watched The Holdovers on a flight yesterday - Fantastic!

I knew The Holdovers was going to be worth the watch when I noticed it was Paul Giamatti and Alexander Payne teaming up for another film. Their first being Sideways, a great film from 2004. One feature of Payne's work is the emphasis on atmosphere, setting, and season. Sideways is in part memorable because of its featuring of California's central coast winery scenery and culture. Likewise in Holdovers, Payne makes the stale boarding school environment distinct and the wintery New England setting shines.

That's one I need to rewatch.  I saw it pretty close to when it came out, and I think I was just too young for it.

I also have always been irritated by Thomas Haden Church

The book "Sideways" is hilarious, and quite different from the movie.  And no Haden Fry Church.

Haven't completed it yet, but Poor Things feels like this years "shitty movie that people are scared to say is shitty, bc then they will be accused of not getting it" film.

And rode it all the way to a Best Picture nomination.  Emma Stone is very good.  Almost so good she makes the movie even more disgusting than it otherwise would be

Just finished watching Napoleon. It's a solid Ridley Scott movie. It definitely feels like most of his do. It's not terribly deep but with a subject like Napoleon, it's hard to do that. There's just too much to cover. I wouldn't call it a great movie but I enjoyed it.

I totally forgot about it until it was up for costume design or something.  A period biopic starring Joakim Phoenix,. directed by Ridley Scott, felt like Oscar bait, bit wasnt

I don't mind Thomas Haden Fry.

But Paul Giamatti stole that movie (as he often does).
