His first pick "gotta get a little Don Siegel, The Killers" a man after my own heart!

Mr Arkadin too!

Apologies Mr. Nolan, I was unfamiliar with your game.

@ShakExcellence I'll always have some connection to all of these but yeahhhhh rewatching the View Askew films as an adult (esp with someone who didnt grow up with them) is a sobering experience. Clerks and the Clerks cartoon innocent.

Batman 66’ is a genuine masterclass of comedic cinema.

So happy this one's finally getting its due in recent years. Distinctly remember going to a 35mm rep screening of this at the TIFF Lightbox in 2018 and it was maybe 1/3 full at best which is inconceivable now. One of Mann's best!

@firewalkwjaime One of my fav Scorseses! So glad the Criterion release finally making it more widely accesible. I'd lend my DVD out to everyone in 2018/19 to get ppl to watch it ha

Ah the Vaughan UFO theatre...greatest theatre in the world. Nothing gets you more hyped for IMAX 70mm than walking through the neon corridors into the auditorium.

[Alex J Dot @GroovyAlexJ]

@metaplexmovies Glad I'm not the only one. I felt like I watched a good theatrical cut of a great directors cut. Same gut feeling as I've had recently with some Ridley Scott films ha.

@artwithinpod I think we could hold off spoiling movies when it's only been a couple days into release. Twitter been so bad about this lately...

[Alex J Dot @GroovyAlexJ]

@yui_antinomy @letterboxd Given the ultra muted reaction, it was a lot more enjoyable than I expected! I still think Wrath of the Man is the peak of this era of Ritchie but I loved you equating him to a modern day DeToth bc its spot on as to his current appeal churning these out so quickly.

Digg. Or Die. DIGGER. Only in theaters October 2.

@NCseventeen One of my all time favourite films, how different is the workprint? Is it just more violence or was it changed quite a bit?

The film looks incredible visually but, tell me you've never seen an 80s fantasy film without telling me you've never seen an 80s fantasy film.

[villains enthusiast @aemondseyepatch]

insane this could pass as screengrabs from an 80s fantasy film

[Alex J Dot @GroovyAlexJ]

@AutismRonin Beautiful Dreamer is excellent, Oshii's filmography is a real rabbit hole the deeper you go down but quite rewarding.

@JakeStaFrm My Darling Clementine is an all timer, one of John Ford's best. Cinematic poetry.

One of my favourite Fleischer cartoons and such a visual splendor (those 3D diorama backdrops mixed with 2D animation???), amazing looking scan!

💥In celebration of our ‘Popeye Fest’ next week, we’ve uploaded our restoration of ‘Popeye Meets Sindbad’ from a 35mm print!💥

@JakeStaFrm In front of the camera:

Joe Talsim - The Raid and esp Night Comes For Us

Xie Miao - Eye for an Eye 1-2, and Fight Against Evil 3 (skip 1-2, 3 has a similar action style to Furious) and while not great, Hunt the Wicked has some crazy fights

2/2

[Alex J Dot @GroovyAlexJ]

@JakeStaFrm Yeah for sure!

Behind the camera:
Kenji Tanigaki - Twilight of the Warriors Walled In

Kensuke Sonumura - Baby Assassins 1-3 (the bad guy in Furious is the villain of 2, heads up these are more hangout comedy films with crazy action vs all action) and Ghost Killer

1/2

[Alex J Dot @GroovyAlexJ]

@eleum_fuck I watched it for the first time a couple weeks ago and I had the same utterly horrified reaction to everything on screen. 140 mins of staring into the abyss.
