Was trying to figure out what was the best thing to watch tonight in honor of David. Toyed with going with the old faithful Blue Velvet since that's the movie that really made me fall in love with his work. Thought about doing Lost Highway since that's one I've only seen once but left such a strong impression and I've been itching to go back. Ultimately I had to go with what is my one true love, the show so…

Nosferatu 2024
Robert Eggers is a director I feel so safe in the hands of. Over the last tens years with his now 4 feature films, he has demonstrated he understands the cinematic tools as a way to transport the audience to these unseen worlds. He has the mind and curiosity of a historian but the heart of an artist which combine for these detailed by rich tableaus that would feel almost documentary-esque if they werent for a confident and distinct visual…

How to Train Your Dragon 2010
Got to see this with a live orchestra and a lot of rabid fans. Great time. Just confirms this is one of my favorite animated film scores period and it has some of the most awe-inspiring tableaus in film. Nothing new to add. Just spectacular.

Barbie 2023
So satisfied with this movie. So funny, perfectly paced and a good chunk of depth. Truly couldn't ask for more from a product movie like this. The least corporate corporate movie. I'm so surprised they let them make this cause even more than something like the Lego movie which is subversive but isn't out right calling out its parent company like that.
I guess if I have to complain, it does have its annoying corporate sponsorship stuff, the non-Barbieland stuff…
