Haha, it boils down to a few choices for me, including a few non movie series.
My immediate answer: Violent Night. It’s such a good, weird Christmas movie with Santa being a badass, an actual engaging story, tons of gore and tons of humor. You can’t go wrong with David Harbour either. In my opinion, it has a lot going for it that makes it worthy both in and out of seasonal viewing.
If we COULD choose non movies, just as added fluff to my post, I’d choose either Fallout or Impractical Jokers. A second choice for me would be The Nightmare Before Christmas. It’s quick, simple, stylish and a fun watch.
It’s a timelessly classic action/adventure movie that anyone can enjoy. It has memorable characters, great set pieces, an interesting story, an incredible score, and Harrison Ford.
I’m surprised I scrolled a decent way through the list and hadn’t seen it posted yet.
Well, I guess time travel does exist after all. I don’t know why they’d choose to go back to that time period to make a movie about Trump though. Maybe it should have been more obvious and they could have prevented it from happening, but we all know the people who elected them have zero media literacy anyway so probably not.
My partner is still processing that film eight years later. She thinks she’ll be able to watch it again in another couple of years. I think I’ll keep her away from the book, whatever happens.
The book is MUCH stranger and dark. There is also the real like stuff they added in the movie.
The author shoot and killed his wife in a William Tell stunt in real life. He then fled toTangierr where he would go out have sex do drugs and come back to his room and write what became Naked Lunch.
His real life friends and authors Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac visited him collected the pages he had written showed then to a publisher and Naked Lunch was born.
The friends in the beginning who show up later to visit are based on Ginsberg and Kerouac.
Yeah, that’s the thing. When I heard they were gonna make a film of Naked Lunch my first thought was: “wtf? you can’t put that on camera.” I think they delivered a great compromise in the end.
Titan AE is an interesting choice for the prompt because the movie flopped specifically because no one vibed with it. Don Bluth’s art style is often taken as shorthand for “this is for kids” but the movie really isn’t; like one character snaps another one’s neck on screen. So no one knew what to do with it and defaulted to “not seeing it.”
Right, because they marketed it wrong. The movie is quite good and me and my friends actually watched in theaters when it came out and enjoyed it, but this is also why I added a couple of on there movies in there.
