I never read The Great Gatsby in high school and will continue living in sweet bliss not knowing how Baz Luhrmann probably disrespected it. I had a good time, and the editing is SO tame compared to Moulin Rouge 👎 and Elvis 👎. Praying I still like Romeo + Juliet whenever I get to rewatching that.

A Real Pain 2024
I love stories that follow the nuance of relationships and emotions. A slice of life, with the history of David and Benji coming through in their actions, their dialogue, the way they process the world. Very beautiful movie and incredible acting.

Zoolander 2001
"Without Derek Zoolander, modeling wouldn't be what it is today." Donald Trump has always believed fictional characters are real.
Also me: "I wasn't like every other kid who dreams about being an astronaut. I was always more interested, in uh, what bark was made out of on a a tree"
Other memorable lines:
-Will Ferrell: "Ahhhhhh"
-"Are you worried about Hansel?" "Not as worried as I am about Gretel."
-"I'm sorry Maury, I'm not a gymnist." So real Derek, don't…Translated from by -
The Monkey 2025
Debated on a 7, but this movie honestly was unexpectedly fun and a big step up from Longlegs in terms of a cohesive story and a funky gimmick. I'm selectively into horror, so a horror-comedy narrated Christmas Story style was a good time. Main complaint was that the pacing could use a bit more tweaking as parts definitely dragged.
