@demisgoinghome@HeylKatme@Prioneye damn, that is exactly what they look like, should have brought this up. Probably also because Watchmen is intentionally like a facsimile of comic book movies
@WillSloanEsq@thejoshl love your rubric for measuring the impact of 2000s films--which is 'how often they are logged in Letterboxd 20 years later'. Perfect way to describe the irrelevence of certain aughts critic-bait movies like Babel and Up In The Air
New episode out on X-MEN (2000)
Remember Shuffle & @coexistinc visit Professor X's School for Very Gay Youngsters to dive into the inaugural Marvel movie of the 2000s
