  Elvis 2022

  Watched by nickusen 29 Jun 2022

  An absolutely punishingly long movie. I genuinely thought it was about to end, checked my watch and saw that there was still over an hour & 30 mins to go & almost crumpled to the floor like the King himself. 

  However, Austin Butler IS the real deal & the final performance of Unchained Melodies brought the house down. It’s nice to know that stock I bought after Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is going to pay out handsomely *cackles like satanic Fat Bastard Tom Hanks*

  Taxi Driver 1976

  Rewatched by nickusen 26 Jun 2022

  I had been watching stuff on TCM earlier in the day & when I turned my tv back on this was playing at the exact moment when Scorsese was getting in the back of the cab. Needless to say I finished the whole thing.

  I also need to pitch HBO Max on EASY ANDY: A Taxi Driver Story where the big IP crossover event happens in episode 4 when Easy Andy travels to Boston and links up with Jackie Brown from The Friends of Eddie Coyle. An absolutely terrifying cgi Peter Boyle would of course play a crucial role to the delight of the fans

  Dune 2021

  Watched by nickusen 22 Oct 2021

  really glad that Denis Villeneuve understands that:
  -the best part of sci-fi movies is watching big weird ships take-off & land extremely slowly

  -the most important part of sci-fi movies is watching cool strange people slowly exit those big weird ships

  The Little Things 2021

  Watched by nickusen 30 Jan 2021

  Denzel shouting, “your dick is as hard as chinese arithmetic, why is that, huh!?” would have caused audiences to go absolutely nuts in 1997, the year I assume this was supposed to be released
