Movie What's the last movie you saw? (7)

[emuboy]

Yeah how good is it

Maybe too weird to be good, despite good performances from Winona Ryder, Jenna Ortega, Catherine O'Hara and Michael Keaton. The original Beetlejuice way back in 1988 obviously had weird things in it (and Tim Burton is the master at this type of film) but it had enough grounding in reality to make it a classic, but this sequel was just so out there.

I loved the weird

I’m gonna watch this tonight, thanks to you Jatzy

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! (And I haven’t ruined your Saturday night )

The crazy thing about Arrival is that it’s based on a true story.

Seven Samurai - Original 3:20, 4K remastered cinema version, subtitled.

Really liked it. See it if you get the chance. In a cinema with nice soft arm rests. Wear comfortable clothes. 5 minute intermission is just enough time for a toilet dash (or, rush in headlong).

Have you watched Incendies? IMO it's Villeneuve's best movie.

I don't know if MrsEddieBetts could handle it though if Arrivals made her cry for two hours.

Yeah it’s an incredible movie. I can’t believe I like a movie with aliens in it that isn’t Star Wars.

It’s broken my brain though, thinking about choice and self determinism and all that jazz.

Nooo I love crying in movies, it’s so cathartic! I’m gonna google it.

Have seen this at home before but my dad insisted on us taking my 13 yo nephew. Was great experience but wish we hadn't chosen the Astor, with its rock hard seats, to watch it at .
They're running a number of his other movies over October/november at Astor and the Classic so going to try catch a few more as have only seen this and Ran. Top of the list is Throne of Blood, Yojimbo and Rashomon.

Looking at those scheduled at Astor, definitely High and Low which plays well with a modern crowd on the big screen. Looks like a Monday night though.

Rashomon is my fave by the way.

You will definitely need a couple of boxes of tissues. The story is epic. As a warning though, the action gets brutal at times, in a very realistic way.
