Films you've watched recently

I enjoy watching films but I never have anyone to talk to about them. I thought I might try it here and see what happens. I wish I could have in depth discussions about them, but I'll keep it brief for now. Here are some I've watched recently:

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice - I watched the original again recently too, but this I watched last weekend. I thought it was OK but a bit unnecessary, and the original was better. However, it did look a lot of fun, even if it started getting weird towards the end.

Godzilla Minus One - I was genuinely impressed with this film! It technically looked amazing, but the story really felt strong too, I felt really engaged with the main human character and his struggles in post-war Japan.

Castle in the Sky - animation is one of my favourite art forms, and I grew up on Western animation like Disney. I've wanted to watch more Studio Ghibli films because the style of storytelling feels so different and wholesome. This one I watched on my birthday and loved it. I think this was made in the 80's and it blew away anything that Disney could produce during the same time period.

Feel free to add your own.

  • Godzilla Minus One was incredible, best Godzilla film in my opinion! Took my sister and her boyfriend to see it, don't think they'd ever seen a Godzilla film before and even they loved it. The score was *chef's kiss* and it probably had the best human characters too. (Unpopular opinion perhaps but I actually like the American 1998 Godzilla, well, I enjoyed it as a giant monster movie maybe not so much a Godzilla one though)

    Last film I watched was There Will Be Blood. It stars Daniel Day-Lewis as a greedy, manipulative oil prospector during the Oil Boom in the early 20th century. I've seen a few Studio Ghibli films. Spirited Away was the first one I was, I was only young maybe 8 or 9 and that thing with the white masked creeped me out. I've also watched My Neighbour Totoro, which I believe came out in the 80s. I agree about the style, it's very charming

  • I liked the 1998 too! I loved Minus One. It made Godzilla scary again!
