    Jesus christ man. I know there’s a lot of stuff to read into here about the two girls being representative of Fujimoto himself and losing an assistant maybe being about Fujimoto losing Tatsu to Dandadan and the obvious KyoAni attack reference but even just taking the story on its face it’s totally devastating. Immediately sat down and read the oneshot afterwards but honestly I think the movie is the superior way to consume this story.

    The next person I hear complain that black and white movies or foreign films are boring, I’m sending the big man with the hammer after you.

    This had a ton of buzz around its release but I’ve not heard much about it since so I was worried this was a flash in the pan shock flick. There is a lot of challenging imagery here but honestly the best bits of the movie are the relationship drama parts between Vincent and Alexia. I think Raw (Ducornau’s other film) does a better job thematically tying…

    Category - Penis Monday or Pussy Friday (movie w full frontal)

    A bit flabby in the back third with the relationship stuff but there are tons of killer jokes here. Idk why but I’ve always had some aversion to mid-aughts Judd Apatow movies but maybe I need to start getting into them. I might also just be a huge fan of Jason Segel tho.
