Not so many great movies

It is so sad. 
Most movies I’m just not interested in. 
Watching more YouTube videos than movies. 
But I just watched a movie Otto by Tom Hanks and it was lovely.

@StarStruck What genre do you like?


"Say to the sheep in your secrecy when you intend to slaughter it, Today you are slaughtered and tomorrow I am.
Both of us will be consumed.

My blood and your blood, my suffering and yours is the essence that nourishes the tree of existence.'"

@StarStruck Maybe try some independent films i.e. via mubi. Perhaps you'll come across a more niche director you really like

The last movie I watched was Pig.

Pretty good.

There are tons of great movies, you just have to look a bit deeper for them, the big box office movies are mostly garbage these days.

@Leo Gura if you like nick cage.  You would probably like Mandy - it's got psychedelics in it and the visuals give off that vibe.

Pre-ordered a ticket for the new Christopher Nolan movie "Oppenheimer."

Haven't been this excited for a movie release in years! :D

“Did you ever say Yes to a single joy? O my friends, then you said Yes to all woe as well. All things are chained and entwined together, all things are in love; if ever you wanted one moment twice, if ever you said: ‘You please me, happiness! Abide, moment!’ then you wanted everything to return!” - Friedrich Nietzsche

Last good one I watched was The Last of Us

I don't really like movies, they're too short and I appreciate a longer story. 

2 hours is simply not enough for me.

However a series can also be unreasonably long like Game of Thrones where they fill 10 seasons with just dialogue (wtf?), I think there's a sweet spot somewhere in the middle. 

And at the same time, many writers and directors have a hard time not fucking up the story by making it longer. It's hard to be original when you consume so much movie content.

Try Limitless. It’s about a guy who takes a drug that activates all of his brain

Justin Timberlake has the movies "In time" (it's about everyone having 25 years to live and you have to work to gain more time) and "friends with benefits".
