TV/Movies Megathread

[The Brain]

Call Me By Your Name. I thought it was very good, even if the second half dragged a bit. Excellent acting. Believable human interactions. And there's even some candy for heteropervs.

Black Mirror. First episode of series 4. Very very good.

[spoiler]So Black Mirror does space is how it was billed. It looked interesting from the screencaps. A riff on Star Trek. Starts very silly and light hearted but soon it is shown it isn't actually set in space. Instead they're pretty much redoing the idea from that John Hamm christmas special.
Nonetheless it is done very well. Give it a few minutes more and release it at the cinema and it could be one of the top sci fi movies of recent years.[/spoiler]

I must be getting old, as the gratuitous lesbian sex scenes didn't seem to add anything to the movie and the gratuitous French lesbian love interest seemed pointless.

Yeah, I completely agree:  you must be getting old.

First episode was excellent.   I will watch the rest in the coming days

The Killing of a Sacred Deer.

Colin Farrell plays a cardiologist that needs to "attone" for a malpractice that caused the death of a man, by killing one of his own family - otherwise they will all fall sick and die. It looks like the set up for a horror movie, but it's actually a weird and upsetting psychological drama in the vein of the director's previous movies. Despite the premise being very good, I think this one ultimately is far more flat than Lobster or Canine. It doesn't help that the characters are hard to relate to, so you end up not giving a shit about which one dies. Nekkid Nicole Kidman still looks decent at 50.

You sir should be ashamed

I've not seen it either.  I think I was a bit old to be in the target demographic (I was 23 and already out of college when it was released).  OTOH, I'm not sure that I would have been interested in seeing it when I was 16 or 12, either.

dps and Ed are worse than Hitler.

i'm just familiar with it from the Cindi Lauper video

Is that the movie where little beanie babies turn into trolls when you add water?
