  • watchedCloverfield Paradox. That was terrible. The only good thing about this film is all the puns people made about the funniest The IT Crowd episode - "I'm disabled. ARM DISABLED". This was not only a horrible movie, it absolutely wrecked the entire franchise. I mean it is so fucking stupid that it manages to ruin all the previous AND upcoming movies.
  • Why are there monsters? Because they messed up something in space. 
  • Why are there several dimensions? Because they messed up something in space. 
  • Why is any of this stuff happening? Because they messed up something in space. 
  • Why is Sam Rockwell so hot? Because they messed up something in space. 
  • Why can't m.brown find his Frost/Nixon DVD? Because they messed up something in space. 
  • There is actual scene in this trash where a scientist says that if they do the thing which they did they will unleash aliens, monsters and beasts from under the sea. So they basically explain the 'rules' of the franchise in one extremely dumb, extremely lazy exposition-filled moment. 
  • The whole thing was almost unbearable to watch and it's only February but it's definitely going to be a strong contender for the worst movie of 2018.
  • Also wasting Gugu and Elizabeth like this should be punishable. Honestly the entire cast was so underused in this pile of garbage. 
  • Whenever I see Chris O'Dowd in anything I immediately have to follow that up with the full rewatch of The IT Crowd. It's just too funny. So that's what I've been doing this week. Also I'm sick and I don't really have the strength to do anything, so this is gonna be very short RF. 
  • For some reason I decided to give Netflix another chance and few hours ago I watchedThe Ritual. That was pretty good. Comparing to Cloverfield: Paradox it was GREAT. Also 15 minutes in I was like "ooh, this guy is hot who is that?" and I check imdb and it's Barrow, the mean guy, from Downton Abbey! Why do you guys ever shave?!
  • I rewatchedSpider-Man 3 because I wanted to see how they did Venom, you know, since there is fuck all of that in that new Hardy movie trailer. How did Franco avoid getting Razzie nomination for that trash? My God!
  • Hey, speaking of - here is the worst possible photo to accompany this headline
  • I also saw Phantom Thread. Yeah, PTA is not for me. His films are very well shot and scored and the actors deliver terrific work but it's all just too bizarre, story-wise. I did enjoy Magnolia and Boogie Nights but his recent movies are not well paced. The last 30 minutes of Phantom Thread is just insane - I could see what he wanted to do but it didn't translate well on the screen at all and was extremely weird and abrupt. Also...wow DDL plays a creep and an asshole. What else is new?
  • DDL was good acting like a bitch and a diva but really, was that acting? This is a dude with all that pretentious method acting crap and "oh, I'm retiring" shtick. I'd be shocked if he was anything other than a bitch and a diva. As you can probably tell I'm not a fan.
  • Vicky Krieps was fantastic. What an embarrassment for the Academy to nominate Streep over her. And Manville was great, I loved that moment:
  • Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker feud got super real last Saturday. I'm team Kim since Parker is one fake bitch.
  • That annoying woman from Oscar nominations and Melissa McCarthyare gonna be in a movie together. The premise seems great and I love Melissa so I'm in. 
  • Idris Elbaproposed to his girlfriend in a theater filled with people, on stage, before the screening of his movie. Naturally, since she is a seeing woman, she said yes. The general mood on twitter is that of sadness and crushed dreams (1,2,3,4).
  • What a week for Michael Fassbender. First there are these embarrassing news. And then there are these horrific news. I'd say that's a nail to the coffin but he has been doing fine job burying his career all on his own, not even a coffin and nails necessary. He just rolled into a ditch with disgraced franchise and started digging a hole furiously. 
  • In news that shouldn't surprise anyone, Tom Hardy is the fan of The Room.
  • Poor bastard
  • So deleted scenes from Justice League showed up on the Internet. This one is particularly infuriating. It's a beautiful scene. Cavill is perfect in it and Irons' delivery of "Master Kent" is just lovely. I fucking hate WB. I hate them.
  • There was a rumor this week they are scoring Aquaman trailer right now. James Wan debunked the rumor in a way that made me roll my eyes. Take it up with the composer, not the people on the Internet who have right to look for news for movie you and the studio are LUCKY some are still excited about. You never go after the fans, ever. The studio completely mangled Justice League, now they have the audacity to put scenes that are superior to anything in the actual movie as 'deleted scenes' on home release and the director of the movie that is also in DCEU that is the first to follow Justice League says "people shouldn't pick random stuff on the Internet as news"? Man, you're lucky anyone cares about this movie let alone cares enough to look for news about it.
  • The Predator, which I am waiting for, moved to September and nowThe Nun, which I'm waiting for even more, also moved to September. 
  • No rest for the horny - The Punisher season 2 starts shooting this month and may even be dropping this year. 
  • Meanwhile, in the land of Schlongs and Roosters....
  • *I was an Angel*
  • *Looking to get fucked hard*
  • *Like a groupie incognito posing as a real singer*
  • *Life imitates art*
  • ...anyone? 
  • Gods & Monsters?
  • *I'm really coming down with that illness here, aren't I?*
  • Thanks to Annihilation release being upon us, we had lots of Oscar Isaac sightings this week.
  • Here's BTS video. Oscar is actually shirtless in it. 
  • And here's interview.
  • Oscar was also on Kimmel's show this week (1,2,3). He was adorable. And fuck you Kimmel for that sexist 'my theory is that women want babies so they can get rid of their husband's stuff' remark. This may fly with your good buddy Trash Damon - not just fly, he would piss himself laughing, the idiot - but Oscar had none of it.
  • Why?:
  • WHY?:
  • FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WHY?!:
  • As for the Rooster worship, I am actually getting worse
  • Mettel is close to seeing God here
  • Fine, if we count my responses there, we are both losing it majorly.
  • I can't with that gif of him in that lab coat. I CAN'T.
  • Oh, Mr. Scientist!
  • I swear I don't even look for these things, they just come to me
  • 2 days till BAFTAs. 
  • What shirt will he wear? 
  • How many pages will he bring to the stage? 
  • Will he wear glasses? 
  • Will I survive watching it?
  • Slay me, sir.
  • I rewatchedEverybody's Fine. It's a charming movie but it's a shame Sam wasn't in it more. Still, thank God for that drum and all the puns I could make. 
  • On Sunday I watchedHeist. That was really boring and overwritten but Sam was great in it. 
  • However, am I glad that I watched that because halfway through it someone thought it was a good idea for Sam to do this.
  • Yep. It's not a surprise the next day I woke up with fever, totally incapacitated.
  • WHAT ON EARTH?
  • HOW MANY MOVES DOES THIS MAN HAVE?
  • My reviews are super insightful and appropriate this week - 1,2
  • So Mettel's birthday was this week (YEY! happy birthday!) and I made her this
  • This is, without a doubt, the greatest thing I've ever made.
  • And making it did not help with my fever at all.
  • On Valentine's I decided the world needs joy and hotness so I gifed that:
  • I'd run to that spaceship so fucking fast my underwear would fall off and I'd trip over it and die.
  • #WORTHIT
  • Also I gifed that
  • God, he has great legs.
  • I cannot believe a lot of things about m.brown's movie viewing history and habits (he actually followed Jigsaw with Mandy Moore shark movie, Daddario/Upton movie and Peter Rabbit and he is STILL not in hospital with acute case of brain damage) but how on Earth has he not seen The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy? He'd love that movie!
  • Sam is gonna be on Colbert's show next Wednesday so with that and BAFTAs RF is already guaranteed to be much longer than that one. 
  • Unless whatever it is I'll watch on Sunday that features Sam is gonna make me even weaker in my already compromised state.
  • I'm gonna link myself, for probably the first time in the more than 6 years (oh, Jesus Christ!) history of RF, because judging from the amount of comments not enough people have seen my brilliant post about Sam's work in Jesse James. I'm so proud of that one. It's actually moderately sane and restrained other than that bit where I rave about how lovely his eyes are. Also I'm super proud that I got both Mettel AND Sonia to watch it (they both really liked the film) but let's face it the real challenge is getting m.brown to watch it. I mean if I can make THAT happen....I can do anything.
  • Sonia reviews 10 Years. Also she is the only one who read in RF about that movie where Oscar sings and plays the guitar and actually watched it. What the hell is wrong with you guys?
  • Sonia also watched Choke and wrote the most accurate review of this movie on the Internet.
  • Mettel shares 10 enjoyable 'bad' romantic movies
  • Allie also found Call Me By Your Name to be insanely boring
  • Keith reviews Geostorm
  • Brittani reviews Good Time
  • Courtney lists her top 10 movies of 2017
  • m.brown reviews Mandy Moore shark movie and has the audacity to blame his wife for watching it.
