Okay, #FilmTwitter, (potentially) fun game: Pick a summer of any year, and reply / quote tweet with 4 films released that summer that OBSESSED you as a kid. Any 4—not necessarily your favorites NOW, just the ones that were your world back THEN. I'll start.
1989:
@blankcheckpod@davidlsims I'm Team Boyle, as a teenager Trainspotting was the Thing and Sunshine is one of my favourite films. Gotta say that Mike Leigh is a blindspot of mine, maybe seen 4 of his films. And a Lifeless Ordinary is one of the best films of the 90s and has my favourite REM track in it.
@blankcheckpod Friends on the other side is the best Disney villain song, Ursella has been dethroned, Garston get out and @AJemaineClement Crab has been diced and sliced, Kieth David RULES!
@filmobjective Shape of the Water for me, I really wanted to love it but it's that Bathroom/cinema scene pulls me right out. The fantastical is a heavy spice, especially in a 50s Mccarthyism back drop and the psychosexual Michael Shannon running around.
@BBC6Music Bournemouth @nickcave absolutely amazing, this is where I go if the Robin Williams What Dreams May Come afterlfe exists, such a great venue and crowd, I swear it also had Lestat vampires there, and the day after I had breakfast behind @warrenellis13, the eggs shoke off my fork.
This single shot #drone film by JayByrdFilms IS the best I’ve seen yet... THROUGH a Bowling Alley!!! Hard to believe its actually real... Sound On, and watch til the end!!!
