I have been living simply for years and I so recommend it, people don't understand how small and repetitive living ends up being not small or repetitive at all!

Thank you. Great review as usual. I will check it out since it's a Clint movie but I will now adjust my expectations. Will you be doing a favorites of 2024?

This was very much an Alfred Hitchcock type of movie. It was good but it could have been so much better if Hitchcock had directed it.

Oh god I’m so pleased to hear that Hot Fuzz is one of your most watched films! 🎉😂❤ Same for me and my wife probably. My wife is from not far from ehere it was filmed, we live maybe 30/40 miles from where it was filmed, both big wright/pegg/frost fans since the Spaced days. It is funny every time, never gets boring.

Probably one of the worst movie ever ;)

Also if you feel like it, Severance 2006/ Jagten 2012/ Batoru Rowaiaru/ Requiem For a dream. If you haven't seen them.

I loved everything about this movie. Made me reflect on my own relationship with a man I loved but wasn’t in love with.

Thanks for the thorough and concise answers Nate! Thank you for doing the Q&A

Loved hearing your answers! Especially thoughtful about holiday traditions. I'm a notoriously awful gift giver because I put so much pressure on myself, but I also love the feeling of spreading joy and showing others how you care for them. Have you made a video about Hitchcock films? I noticed you're a fan of many of his films, so maybe you could rank what you've seen or discuss your favourite/favourites. If so, I'm not sure if you've seen Rebecca or Rope yet? Rebecca unlocked something within me and completely shifted how I view cinema and what I'm drawn to. I wish every feeling and element of that film were something tangible, so that I could give it a hug. Another video idea, if you haven't already made something similar: something along the lines of the most effective horror films as vehicles for messages/life lessons/philosophies. Obviously I made that a little wordy haha, but some sort of topic/direction like that. Side note: I'm a Stardew Valley addict. I have 30 saves on my Switch and I'd say I binge-play it for a month, take a month or two off, then go back. I speed through the community centre, and then I get a high off of collecting all the walnuts on the island. My hyperfixations are usually short lived, but Stardew Valley is something I come back to over and over and over again. I've never completed it hahah, because my comfort is in the same cycle of accomplishing quests. And marrying Abigail.

i love your movie "lesser known movie" reviews. They often give me something new to watch. i really hope u become a big youtuber cuz u deserve it and you're so likeable. But at the same time i like you're growing slow cuz the fam is closer, if that makes sense.. btw, did u check Bad times at El Royal? i would love to hear your review about it :p We're about to watch Herectic now. (smile 2 last week) Have a great evening and as always thx for the video!

I’m similar in the sense that I don’t always discuss mainstream cinema

I love this show too! Refreshing to hear positivity

Maybe an idea for future videos could be “checking off my watchlist” or something along those lines. I feel like you already kind of do that but just something to consider!

I’m so glad you review much less of the “blockbuster” type movies. Independent cinema is the best

Thanks

I love this show so much, i met the boulet brothers and the finalists of last season, they were so nice, and the show was fun.

Its not a movie bud its a documentary

So well spoken and so interesting to hear your experience with the show 🖤 Thank you so much for the love and being a fan of the show 🥹 xoxo Asia Consent

A fun adventure in Lego fashion.

I loved this one

Dragula is AMAZING. The creativity, the horror concepts, the challenges, and the looks! The latest season (666) was really good and deffo delivered filth more than the prior season in my oppinion. I can't wait to see what DRAGULA has in-store for us viewers. ❤

Never heard of it, will try to watch.

The movie was brilliant.

I'm a fairly newer subscriber here. I've been watching some of your film reviews, and I was not expecting a review for this! I LOVE Dragula. The drag monsters are so talented and creative with their looks and performances. So happy for the winner of this season, who really emboddied Dragula wholly.

Wow, I guess I'm the odd man out here. I didn't think it was amazing but I didn't think it was bad by any means. Up until the end you question who is the real psycho the kid or the mom.... behavior wise it could be either...I think there's some things that we never get answers to that they screwed up on and I personally would have gone another way with the film like the pictures in his closet, I would have liked to find out that those wet actually the pictures his mother drew as a child and he found them and hung them up...I also think it would have been even more psychological if the son was also documenting things from his side claiming his mom was the psycho, cuz let's be honest her behavior is pretty sketch... the gloves, she's always filming( this one got to me making me think she was the psycho cuz i had a roommate that was a complete nut case, like she believed there wer animals living in the walls but only in her room and there wer bugs that wer getting under her skin, and she would constantly push your buttons then run and start recording on her phone but like try and hide it then come back like it was the first time so it looked like if you yelled at her or said anything that you wer the aggressive one, I ended up having to record on my lap top 24/7 when I was home because she called the cops like 7 times and every time I'd have to show them what really happened, and I would ask the cops please mental health arrest her do something and they would always say if we did they would just consider it drug related and release her in 8 hours that it wouldn't do me any good anything they could take her in for she'd b right back and then sit would get worse, so I understand that kind of crazy" but all on all I liked watching it even if it wasn't my favorite movie

David here I’ve been a movie buff for over 50 years and I thought the movie was pretty good. Megan Fox made a good robot husband was weak, but the star of the movie was the little girl. Nobody talks about her in reviews. She did a great job four out of 10 popcorn boxes for me. See you at the movies.

F1RST!

What were some movies that stand out for you when you were a kid/teen that you feel maybe shaped your tastes now?

The movie was really good...very funny...and you can connect with the actors...the ending was very different...just gonna leave it there.

The 2 movies I brought to your attention a few days ago are also A24: The Humans God’s Creatures The cinematography, pacing, sound, & subtle horror are some of my favorite things about A24 movies. Yet The Humans is far more warm & friendly, while God’s Creatures feels distant & cold. The cast of The Humans is very enjoyable & relatable. I found myself sympathizing with each one of them. The ending really makes you want to appreciate & love your family. I did enjoy Never Goin’ Back. I thought it should have felt more unbelievable than it was based on previous high school comedies & the scenarios they found themselves in, but for some reason they made it feel plausible? Reminded me of Hot Summer Nights in that way. Both feel like throwbacks, but with higher quality, better cinematography, more relatable characters. I think it’s because the relationships feel more authentic despite the over the top scenarios.

You lack insight into the Ultra-Orthodox Jewish world-you call it a “church”-and this disqualifies much of your judgment. Don’t judge their lifestyle. The film is poignant and true to the essence of this corner of Judaism.

By the way, if you like period movies, you must absolutely watch "Amadeus" (1984) made by the great director Milos Forman. It's a masterpiece and super captivating to watch. You'll love it!

I've just watched the movie in an art cinema in Germany. I agree with you about the husband. I didn't like him. He looked like a young man who was only thinking about himself. I would have wanted to see more of her life. After reading about her life in Wikipedia, I thought that they could have made a mini-series, showing us the different struggles and achievements in her life.

Wtf is the stupid not matching edits?

I was so glad we felt the same way about the film. I'm excited to watch it with other people and get their thoughts. So thought-provoking and completely unlike anything I thought it would be. The main speeches about acceptance and faith, Fiennes' and then Diehz's when in that auditorium (and the one at the end), really struck something within me. They were beautiful and honest, and touched on so many of things I wished I heard from the church, at a younger age. I was genuinely laughing at the end of the film in disbelief, because you could NOT have convinced me this film would one day exist when I was a child. I was also surrounded by many elderly people who likely expected a very different film, and so their reaction made it hard not to laugh... I left the theatre calling my mother, ranting about how much I loved it and begging her to watch it. If that's not the sign of a good film, I don't know what is.

This movie requires a review? Whats next, cartoon episodes?

If you like found footage. Definitely a watch!!

Phenomenal film. I first heard about it online a couple of months ago and found it streaming. I was hooked from the beginning. It's a slow burn for sure, but everything is set up as the film progresses and repeat viewings reveal the hints as to what it going on. I love horror and have seen hundreds of horror films over the years, but the ending to this one was a genuine surprise, possibly the most surprising to any film I've seen. I found the Second Sight Blu Ray and will enjoy this one every year.

The supernatural and ghosts don't scare me one bit. So thanks for the review, but I won't be watching this.

Watched it last night and enjoyed it. Agree that it's nothing groundbreaking, but it was entertaining enough. One question though - why was it called Magpie? There was one scene when she was in Alicia's trailer and I wondered if she was going steel some of her possessions, but that never happened.

I saw 20th Century Women this year and enjoyed it. I liked Greta Gerwigs character for her woman empowerment mentality

dude you explained perfectly what this movie was for me- perfect blend of cinematography, music, story, characters- thank you!!

Great video! As a queer person I kind of overlooked the themes of gender identity, just because they didn’t stand out to me but now I’m remembering what the botanist says about those ferns!

I found the movie to be incredibly funny in several scenes

Krisha is going in my watch list now. I would add Stoker and the doc The Wolfpack.

Saw this one yesterday and I love it (as the whole franchise). Good and fair review although I like the switch to the serial killer thing but of course I wouldn't complain if the supernatural thing would come back in the next part. At least Turner is very original imho and I like that very much. Great series and for me he can make 20 more parts if he continues like this.

Would u ever do paid requests for movie reviews or video topics? I know a few channels that do it u can send them $5 or 10 for movie reviews or video topics. Ramboraph4life, TheItalianStallion51 and Deadpit Radio are some channels that do this

A few questions you could potentially choose from: 1. If you were to make a film at this point in your life, with all resources necessary: what genre? any themes or topic you'd explore? Any decade/time period it would be set it? 2. What is your most rewatched film and what makes it enjoyable to rewatch? 3. Is there any story you would want adapted as a film, if it was done well (such as: a true story, video game, book, short film, etc.) 4. It's snowing here in Ontario so winter/holidays are on my mind haha; are there any winter traditions you look forward to? (My family makes a brown sugar caramel/toffee that hardens over snow and makes me giddy every year).

Dang this seems like something I got to be mentally prepared for, but still sounds good. Is there somewhere you can watch the movie or is it only in festivals? Nice review btw❤❤❤
