The second half of There Will Be Bloodenough.
Technically they're not always horror films - but I'd put all Jonny Greenwood scores in the horror category in terms of atmosphere and mood :wub:

Definitely Phantom Thread at least.
Let's bomb Russia!

Was that the one where DDL played a tailor?
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Yes - though not a tailor. It's a great film.

Ok a designer for tailors.

Louis Theroux has a new series :w00t:
First episode... The alt right.
Great quote "nick was playing at being racist whilst also being racist". Just what is that tactic called :hmm:

This ... is not what I expected.  :huh:

"The Last Duel" was outstanding, IMO.

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Taxi Driver. Overall a good film, but the happy ending bugs me. Between the killings, pulling his piece at the rally, and the illegal guns, surely he'd be doing time for something.

I think a Galaxy Quest style meta movie like this set in a Toon Town style world might work, but the trailer just seems tonally very weird between "look at the gritty reality of our washed up TV stars" at the start and wacky hijinx later.

Yeah I quite like the idea but I'm not sure :hmm:

It was... kind of ok, I guess? Until it got to Seth Rogan.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

I'm not sure who's the audience for this. Might check it out if the reviews are good.
