  My Cousin Vinny 1992

  ★★★★ Watched 21 Feb 2025

  The math of 28-year-old Marisa Tomei saying to 49-year-old Joe Pesci that she's been waiting to get married to him for 10 years hasn't aged brilliantly but their performances more than make up for it. Much better than I had hoped.

  TÁR 2022

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 12 Feb 2023

  Regarding all the complaints about its length, I'd like to point out that it's 4 minutes shorter than Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

  The Day the Earth Stood Still 1951

  ★★★ Watched 07 Sep 2024

  I'm not calling it bad but it is very... quaint. My favorites examples are the fact that the spaceship is guarded by two guys with rifles, and of course, "Say, strange man who walked into this boarding house late last night, would you mind taking care of my twelve-year-old son all day while I go on a picnic with the world's least likable insurance agent?"
