Second Act, a 2018 comedy starring Jennifer Lopez and Vanessa Hudgens. It was good; I enjoyed it quite a bit. Predictable, yes, but not as bad as Rotten Tomatoes made it out to be.

Mary Poppins Returns, and before that, Ralph wrecks the internet
Long movie, but definitely pretty good. I can tell why is considered a classic.
Starting my new year meta of having a gallery with all One Piece characters.Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It was just as unexpectedly cool as I thought it would be.
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans. A Crazy Awesome crossover, indeed!
"Scooby Dooby Doo!"saw Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets again a couple nights ago on Syfy and IDGAF what anyone else thinks, I love that movie
oh, that's why I need this binary mind // ⌘H.E.R.. I... don't know what to say. It's amazing. I've never been affected by a movie like this since I first saw Inside Llewyn Davis.
“We’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.” - Lewis CarrollGood Will Hunting. It's as good as I heard it is. :) It sure got dramatic around the hour and a half mark, though. I'm glad it had a good ending. :)
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.Ad Astra. It was...different.
The Children's Hour. It was...interesting, though it got melodramatic in the end. I did genuinely like it, though. I admit, I cheered when that doctor spanked that little brat Mary.

Just watched Joker (2019). And I liked it. It's a good psychological thriller.
I would recommend to avoid social media or comic book fans arguing about the movie, at least until all the dust about controversy settles down. Because there's more toxicity than any laughing gas the character ever used.
Starting my new year meta of having a gallery with all One Piece characters.Trying for mainly horror-ish stuff for the Halloween season:
The Perfection. Either Netflix just picked the first intense but spoiler free scene in the film as a preview or they deliberately used Trailers Always Lie to hide a key twist: The scene they use makes it seem like a movie about a Body Horror virus, when it's more of a revenge thriller and said scene meant something completely different in context. This is a little pulpy but good, and Allison Williams' role is kind of an interesting twist on the type of character she played in Get Out!.
In The Tall Grass. I wanted to like this one but it lost me halfway through. I guess the problem is that the premise (a Genius Loci in the form of a huge field of grass that just endlessly lures people into it to get lost) was probably enough for a short story but feels pretty stretched out for a 100 minute film.
S&M2(the Metallica concert film).
Joker. That is one intense movie. I love it!
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.The Pentagon Wars.
Too accurate to be funny.
For the Halloween season, The Sixth Sense. This was my first time seeing it again in years. Even if everybody knows the twist ending by now, it's still a good movie. :)
Update for today: Horror of Dracula. It is quite good. :)

I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.Several movies in the past couple of days or so and they are:
Army of Darkness - Classic cult horror film, Bruce Campbell is awesome, probably one of my favourites from the Evil Dead series. Enough said.
The Birds - A Alfred Hitchcock movie I never got to finish originally and it's quite terrifying and it's easily one of his best films.
The Nightmare Before Christmas - A halloween tradition for me is that I always watch The Nightmare Before Christmas around this time of year. Iconic film, and so many songs that I adore so much.
Corpse Bride - I figured why not? Seeing as I was going to watch The Nightmare Before Christmas I thought I'd make it a double bill. It's a great film, little bit underrated and nobody doesn't really talk that much about it but I feel like it stands out as it's own film.
I finally got around to watching Dracula Untold. I thought it was quite good. :) I wasn't quite expecting it to end in the modern day, though.

I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.Parasite (2019). Easily the best movie I've seen this year. Bong Joon-ho plays the movie's tone like a fiddle, switching from comedy to nail-biting suspense to tragedy like an absolute maestro. The plot is original and genuinely unpredictable, and the visual work and direction made for some of the best use of narrative symbolism I've seen anywhere.

Echoing hymn of my fellow passerine | Art blog (under construction)I just finished watching Finding Forrester. I really like it. :)
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.Asterix and The Vikings. And before that, A Goofy Movie.
i think i’m in love (probably just hungry)Panic Room, which I first saw in-flight. Only just realised that the balaclava'd Raoul is played by the singer of T2 's biker bar song.
I'd rather be known as a "wrong 'un" than a "right one".
