Any other new cool movies Leo?

If you like death camp Nazi style movies, this is a good one based on true events. 

[LSD-Rumi]

Movies made by A24 are really good in general.

Letterboxd will usually recommend you the best of the best. Go there if you want good movie recommendations or reviews of recent films.

It’s much better than IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, etc.

Watch the Furiosa movie. I did not expect it, but it was quite good.

No, it’s just a review site. Like IMDB.

This looks like a Disney movie compared to the harsh reality of a Nazi death camp.

The inmates in this movie have nice clothes, long hair, are well nutritioned and can talk with each other (in a Nazi death camp it was more restricted, although not completely). 

"Based on true events" lol

12 Angry Men is definitely in my top 5 movies of all time. It's a classic. If you haven't watched it, I really recommend you do. I have a hunch you'd like it if you like watching Leo.

I thought I had already mentioned it, but definitely Dune 2. I was able to watch it alone in an empty cinema room. It was glorious.

Just watched it.

I understand why people like it, however, I found it to be quite predictable. Not bad for a movie made in 1957 but I wasn't as impressed watching it in 2024, especially after having seen Leo's videos on assumptions and human biases, which the whole movie was about (and how people change their views as they acquire new information.)

I (don't) like how one of the guys couldn't give a fuck about the trial and all he wanted was for it to be done with so that he could catch the sports game. I think more and more people are becoming like this guy nowadays (selfish and indifferent.)

Did you see this movie? How you described it is not how I remember it to be, but maybe that's just your view. Yes, it was based on true events. No need to bash somebody's movie recommendation. 

[Davino]

Just watched Inside Out 2

It's not a masterpiece but it's watchable and actually has some good points. It definitely makes you reflect and have a good time.

Yes I saw it. I just want to tell you how it is. This movie has some serious flaws and should be at least a bit more realistic. Reality is way more brutal and ugly than all these beautiful actors, wearing good clothes, have full hair (which was cut off completely) and are well nutritioned.

At least they should have lost some pounds for the movie and should wear the original clothes.

It is a very shallow movie.

You're telling me how you saw it. Your opinion of it. Thanks for sharing. I totally disagree but to each is own. I don't even see the beautiful actors and the wearing of good clothes. The nazi soldiers were in uniform and the people in the camp were dressed appropriately. There were terrible things happening to the prisoners one of which they were burnt alive in the shower. Another got her baby shot and wannabe escapees were executed in front of their peers. I didn't see anyone dressed up nor with fancy hair. They were eating filth as in dirty water and bread and the soldiers beat the feeder from not serving fast enough. Their clothes were sometimes raggedy and stained. You described a totally different movie in my eyes but like I said to each is own.

Yeehaw… time for a slaughtering party 🪓😈

Mother 2017 one of the most stressful, anxiety inducing movie experiences I have ever had. It's a crazy mind fuck of a movie and I really can't recommend it enough. Jennifer Lawrence is a phenomenal actress.

If you like Mother you should also watch Men. Similar atmosphere, but it's even more disturbing IMO.

Castlevania Netflix series was fantastic. But you need to love good animation, brutal human nature and good fight scenes.

@FourCrossedWands Yes I’ve been wanting to check out Men, its the only popular A24 film I haven’t seen yet.
