😂 Favorite reply I’ve ever gotten in my three years on Reddit.

Hell yeah! The Place Beyond the Pines is so underrated. Love the music and cinematography in it. Boogie Nights is one of the best put together ensemble casts ever. Love that movie! Spider-Man 2, inarguably the best Spider-Man movie. And Goodfellas is suspenseful. Love Joe Pesci. So iconic.

Oh, sweet! Mine’s Whiplash. What are some of your other favorites?

Hmm, okay. What’s your favorite Chazelle movie?

Yeah, I saw that it comes out tomorrow. Have you seen it? I’m a Damien Chazelle fan, seen his other three movies, and like each one only slightly less than the one that came before, so I’m assuming the trend will continue?

I’ve got Decision to Leave on my list to watch. I’ve heard it’s really good.

Hmm. Sounds really good and sad too.

Dang, wish I’d known that. Rented it just before. What did you like about Aftersun so much? Everyone seems to love it. I guess it could dethrone Everything Everywhere as #1 for me.

It’s my favorite movie of the year actually. Top Gun: Maverick, Tár, Banshees, all great ones. Really looking forward to Aftersun.

Okay, I’ll give it a shot.

Yeah, I think you’re right. I think it is this year.

Yeah, I was this close to watching that at Sundance last year. It looks good.

Oh yeah, isn’t that the Irish one?

Yeah, I had The Fallout on my list originally, and I do love sad and traumatic. Are Pearl and X really that good?

I have A Love Song on the list, really enjoyed it, but you picked some good ones. Hmm, I might have to bump it up to 55. I know everyone loves Decision to Leave.

Can’t stand Eddie Redmayne but thanks.

Personally not interested in either one but thank you for the recommendations.

Hmm, okay. Thanks for the recommendations.

I’m sure some of these others are probably 2021 also. I just count movies by when I get to see them, and I didn’t get to see Tragedy of Macbeth until it was released on AppleTV+ in January. I tried to do it the other way and count movies by their technical release date but it got to be too much of a hassle waiting for some. movies to come out a year+ later that released the previous year, like at Sundance or whatever.

Okay, watching it. So you highly recommend GDT’s Pinocchio too?

Never heard of it but I googled it. The premise alone sounds intriguing.

Hmm, if I get enough good recommendations, I might push the number up. I was considering GDT’s Pinocchio because I love stop-motion, but I’ve heard EVERYONE talk about how good Puss in Boots 2 is. What makes it so good?
