Home Alone 2: Lost in New York 1992
In my opinion even better than the original for three simple reasons:
1) bigger and better booby traps
2) really leans into the child-alone-on-vaction fantasy. #1 gave us ice cream sundaes and going through your brother's room; this gave us pizza in a limousine, shopping at an enormous toy store, and ordering $1000 worth of room service to your suite at the PLAZA HOTEL! Even Eloise never lived so large
3) Pigeon Lady > Shovel Man
Makes me miss NY. I'M WALKIN' HERE!!!!

Bravissimo!!! Un chef-d'oeuvre!! I hope to only have daughters, but if I have a son I can only pray he's like Kevin McCallister.
That was so much pizza for $120!

Midsommar 2019
This is the only 2.5 hour movie I think could easily be longer without wearing on the audience or detracting from what it achieves.
Not much I can say about this movie that hasn't already been said but each rewatch I'm struck more and more by how absolutely beautiful it is. The most simultaneously pleasant and disturbing audiovisual experience I've ever had.
This watch-through I noticed how realistic all the non-cult elements are. The dialogue, the poorly lit grad student…

You give me such a wettie
The most sapphic, demonic film set to a pop punk soundtrack ever made.

The Shining 1980
