I just haven't gotten around to watching it yet because I tend to prefer watching animated stuff or horror when I watch feature length stuff.

I don't know if we could consider as the live action of "Yu Yu Hakusho" as a movie. If not then that would be "Godzilla"
Oldest is probably "And Then There Were None"

>>67888I went to letterboxd (yes, a mistake, i know) to see the reception and was baffled by the positive response. The jokes range from obvious/overdone to outright bad, the kids have no charisma or comedy chops and it's attempts at 'pulling on your heart strings" are some of the most forced, saccharin bullshit i've ever seen. The response to it really made me feel like i was going insane because any random, shitty comedy film that came out 10 years is better made than this.
Tbh, after reading some of the reviews on letterboxd, i think a lot of female viewers took to it because they want to molest those boys.

Saw Transformers One.
Quite the rollicking time. On one hand it adapted fairly well past the post-Bionicle gen of the early 00s. On the other hand it got fairly dark when it did.
But it's that one minute and that same 80s spectacle the next, even if I chose this over Toy Story 4, also directed by Cooley.
I had fun, though I have yet to see what the pundits thought…

Got around to watching the original 70s version of Stepford Wives.
It was pretty bad but not for the reasons I was expecting. What was notable to me was that it was bad on a techical level more then issues with the story. I can definatly see why they got around to making a remake.
The editing, the shot choice, how scenes were arranged, some of the audio mixing, having way too much dead air and time filler stuff, plot threads went nowhere. The whole thing was a mess on a basic film making level.
The story it's self was mediocre to bad. There were some interesting concepts and it set it's self up as a mystery plot but refused to play into the mystery genera, instead mostly focusing on drama which I think was a poor choice, especially since they constantly deflated the sense of drama and dread every few minutes when things started to get even a little tense.
Never read the book it's based on, but I think the same concept reworked, rewritten, and done by a more competent team of film makers could result in a decent movie. As it stand now though, the original 70s version kinda sucked. The 2/3s of the move was boring, lots of technical issues, and the lead's acting was subpar.

>>68138I used to enjoy it but my local theater went to shit and 95% of movies in the last couple years haven't been worthy of my money nor even my time.
Given me time to watch more indie, international, and old stuff though.
Wish there as a theater in town that showed old films on the big screen for like a couple bucks. I actually do enjoy the theater experience. Feels special and I am even more zoned into the movie.

I watched Mr. Vampire last night. Again, yet again. To me, this movie is nearly the perfect expression of a popcorn film. You might think it would be a movie made in the U.S. or perhaps Bollywood, since they are producing most of the silly movies purely for entertainment, but no. At least for me, it’s this film from the golden age of Cantonese cinema.
It is Ricky Lau's third movie as a director. His two previous films, Two Toothless Tigers and Crazy-Fist Executioner, were rather inexpressive, mediocre outings. Mr. Vampire looked like it was going the same way. He began filming it without a full script, without the necessary budget, and without a proper movie set. He pretty much winged it, at least in the beginning, and it shows. There are many scenes that feel disjointed, more like comedy sketches than part of a cohesive movie. Yet, for this one film, the stars were aligned because that lighthearted approach to piecing the movie together actually works in its favor.
The movie is assembled rather loosely; all the scenes are springy and involve all sorts of shenanigans: hopping zombies, Tao spells, Kung Fu, comedy, ghosts, and cultural shock during Republican-era China. Even the romance in this movie is interesting. I particularly enjoy the 'cheap studio' atmosphere of the interior scenes; oddly enough, that also works in its favor. It feels like a movie still in transition from theater, employing theatrical techniques. It’s very fun to watch these actors absolutely destroy the fake furniture, walls, kitchenware, and whatever else happens to be in the way during fight scenes. The set design, on the other hand, doesn’t feel cheap at all, despite being made of cheap stuff. The backgrounds are filled with detail. The gardens, rooms, and streets have a domestic, accommodating aura, and the clothing and props add to it immensely.
All the characters and actors are likable and never overstay their welcome in the scenes. Lam Ching-ying in particular nails the role of Master Kau as the main protagonist, so much so that people are still making movies with this exact character to this very day. He is the perfect embodiment of the shifu archetype in Wuxia fiction. He plays off his incompetent apprentices to great effect, and the apprentices, in turn, play wonderfully against the pretty face of the movie, Ting-ting. There’s an unusually sharp rapport among these characters that makes for a pleasant watch. Like I said, it’s the perfect popcorn movie.
Last but not least, it was through Mr. Vampire that I discovered Pu Songling's short stories, which adds to the entertainment this movie has provided me over the years.
