New trailer for Stranger Things season 3. They're killing off the hot one that looks a bit like Zac Efron, aren't they?
First poster for Paul Feig's Last Christmas. I really hope it's a hit, Emilia deserves that!
There was a special first screening of Midsommar this week with the cast and Ari Aster talking about the movie and the critics getting to see it. The reactions so far are fantastic. They aren't Hereditary-levels strong but that's mostly because while it was hard to compare Hereditary to anything, the outsiders in strange environment is a fairly familiar horror trope. Here's the new trailer.
They are re-releasing Endgamewith some added bullshit at the end in an attempt to earn more money. I think it's a very dirty trick, to ask people to go pay for it again just because there's some new stuff at the end, but I must say I approve of any plot Disney hatches to dethrone Avatar. Whatever it takes.
Netflix is removing Hannibal very soon so since I never finished the show, I decided to watch it again and check out all 3 seasons. This is seriously the only way I watch TV series these days, when Netflix goes "oh, we are removing it soon so we can make room for our trash" and I'm forced to watch it.
This is such a unique/crazy show. I still cannot believe it aired on NBC - some of the stuff in it was way more hardcore than what HBO is showing. And Mads Mikkselsen was so good here - Hopkins played the part as a psychopath but Mikkelsen played it as Satan walking on Earth.
The season 2 finale is one of the most highly rated TV episodes on imdb and it's an amazing episode but it's a bit overrated. Then in season 3 Fuller spends FOUR episodes showing us flashbacks to present the outcome for each of the characters while the main storyline progresses very slowly. The show looks amazing but at times they just feature too many visions, dream sequences and such and add to that all the psychological/philosophical talk and it's really not for everybody. But the main things from the books are so well adapted - especially the character of Dr Chilton who is by far the most amusing part of the show and the Red Dragon story line which is the back half of season 3.
I also watched Chernobyl which was good but people are really overhyping it. Jesus, we only got Sharp Objects last year, which was far superior to this.
Because of that I didn't have much time for movies but it's 4 day long weekend here so I'm catching up.
So I livetweetedPoint Break, a movie I have never seen before. Jesus Christ, it was hilarious. Keanu plays a rookie FBI agent who wants to find bank robbers and thinks they are surfers so he starts surfing to get close to them. Every time he fell off the board and yelled, I laughed so hard.
There is also a chase scene where he breaks into a house, some woman starts beating him up with a golf club telling him to get the fuck out of her house and then the dude he is chasing THROWS a dog at him and Keanu, the patron saint of dogs, kicks the dog off, continues running and tumbles down the hill because as we all know, he cannot run like a human being.
And his delivery of "I am an F...B...I agent" as well as "oh shit!" in the middle of the movie is one of the funniest things I've ever witnessed.
He is so adorable.
I wanna feed him strawberries and brush his beautiful hair.
*coos*
*faints*
And you can tell a woman directed it because he is shirtless at least a dozen times. And he also shows ass.
I actually rewatched it on Monday and it made me laugh even harder. I can see this becoming a regular thing I rewatch after I come home from work. Seriously, if you haven't seen it yet, do, it's amazing!
Then, in the middle of heatwave I rewatchedSomething's Gotta Give. This is the craziest movie ever made because what woman would ever choose Jack Nicholson over Keanu Reeves?
No, no. A DOCTOR super sweet Keanu Reeves that never gets angry and cares about you so much.
Literally every single of the above things is better than Jack Nicholson. Separately. And combined? He is a GOD.
And he did this:
(Yes, I risked my life making those gifs for you)
He smiled like an angel and bit his lip.
What the fuck was he trying to do there?
Explode ALL the ovaries out there so our species would end?
Then on Tuesday I rewatched/livetweetedSweet November and that was even worse than I remembered. Oh my God, it's so bad. Keanu goes to serious Nic Cage levels in this one. There's a montage of him walking on the beach all night and thinking, set to Enya's "Only Time". And there's a scene where he attempts to sell a marketing for hot dogs featuring sexual innuendos. He actually got Razzie nomination for this, he has 7 total! 7! And most shockingly not one of them is for Knock Knock.
Yesterday I watchedBill & Ted movies. They were so cute! That third one is gonna be amazing with Keanu looking like John Wick but playing such a goofball.
And then I rewatched parts of The Neon Demon. Keanu is in 3 scenes or so but this happens:
I....have no words.
I think I spent an hour this week just watching interviews. Here are some gems I found - 1,2
And here is adorable promo stuff for Toy Story 4 - 1,2,3,4,5,6
