TV/Movies Megathread

To me La La Land seems to be extremely well done escapism, while Moonlight exclaims "serious, important drama". It'd depend on what you're looking for at the moment of watching the film.

I wouldn't call a musical escapism, unless that includes escaping from everything that's still worthwhile in this world.

It's so weird to me seeing how musicals provoke such a rabid reaction in some people. 

[LaCroix]

I have several obsessives in my family.  My cousin is a pro even.
Also I care for good music.

Watchning Andromeda reruns.  Damn, that was cheesy, and there was some real bad acting there.

Japanese Summer: Double Suicide. A really crazy B&W sex-filled attack on Japanese society from the 1967 counterculture.

I utterly love that movie. One of my favorite Japanese flicks.

Hot shots!

Forgot about Valeria Golino. :wopboner:

Bridge of Spy: good parts are still good on second view.  The Dulles scene is silky smooth.

Doesn't that U2 ditch scene feel kind of implausible?

Watching Fresh Prince of Bel Air for nostalgia's sake.
Two points.
1: Oh my god. The 8th episode of the first series and already they do a clip show
2: It being a show for young guys a lot of the adventures revolve around picking up girls.... girls who are always black. I remember a similar episode of Malcolm in the Middle once. The boys were all after a bunch of girls...and of course the black guy ends up with the one black girl. Pff....

Prelude to a Kiss was some weird shit.
