Re: Movie Thread: New, Rental, Streaming
I have that on blu-ray, but haven't taken the time to watch it yet. I was able to get it in a three-pack with Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. The Simon Pegg/Nick Frost movies have been great so far (except for Paul, that was just meh).

Did you eat ice cream while watching it?
Re: Movie Thread: New, Rental, Streaming
I was told it was an odd movie, and I had responded, "It's Simon Pegg. Of course it is." I was not prepared for how bizarre it really is. It's actually my favorite of the "trilogy."

Anybody watch the Angry Sky 30 for 30? It went from 0 to 100 in depression real quick.

Dog Days of August. After this week's events, I needed a pick-me-up.
So, I watched Blazing Saddles and Aspen Extreme. Solid choices.

Re: Movie Thread: New, Rental, Streaming
All the Criterion Collection movies are from the Grand Rapids Public Library. I'm trying to watch everything that the GRPL holds in the CC, which is quite a lot. I'm not sure the exact number of the Criterion Collection--here's the list--but I think the GRPL has a pretty good accumulation of the Collection. I watch about one a night, but two or three on Sundays and whatever day is my day off during the week. I had some vacation time in July, so I was able to squeeze in a few more each day. I'm doing it chronologically for the most part, unless I have a a set like the Agnes Varda films which went from 1954 to 1985. I also try to throw in a recent movie and have been covering most everything that was nominated for the 2015 Academy Awards.
I'm kind of addicted right now, so I just keep going.

Re: Movie Thread: New, Rental, Streaming
That's a noble pursuit.
From the lists you are posting I would guess I have seen less than a third of the collection. I may have to try the same thing. I would also do them chronologically.

Re: Movie Thread: New, Rental, Streaming
And I assume, like me, you don't watch much tv, so yeah, it's pretty easy to rattle off a movie a night, and a few on the weekends.

Re: Movie Thread: New, Rental, Streaming
Ditto. There are 2 series I watch right now, and one of those is a Netflix series (House Of Cards).
Interstellar:
Re-watched it. Still an EXCELLENT movie, but it loses quite a bit on the small screen. Glad I saw it in theaters first.

Fed Up
An incredibly slanted slam against the food industry (although I do agree with most of it), and how the government and USDA/etc hypocritically do business. My problem is with the consumer in this doc. "We eat what the schools give us, which is unhealthy. We have no choice." Uh, yes you have a choice. Bring your own friggin' lunch.
And of course, it ties in the tobacco industry, because that has everything to do with food consumption.

Hopefully Deadpool will use movies like those mentioned to poke fun at the genre... We already see that with his comments about the green, animated suit

Re: Movie Thread: New, Rental, Streaming
At the rate I'm seeing/hearing promotion for "The Gift," it has one of two options:
1. Be really good.
2. Be f-cking awful.
I'm betting on option #2.
