Yeah, same. I saw it at a film festival a number of years ago, with no idea or preconception as to the film or what it was about. When it was over, everyone in the theatre were basically destroyed by the documentary. Then, to add to it all, after the film we were surprised to learn that the grandparents and filmmaker…

I just watched this for the first time a month ago. I have seen people post about it for years but avoided reading about the twist. Then I watched it and LOST MY SHIT. I couldn’t believe it. I doubt I will ever watch it again. 

Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father.

Ok, but which one gets fingered?

A remake of “Freddy Got Fingered” with Plaza as Tom Green’s character and Ortega as Rip Torn’s?

Fun Home, the Tony Award-winning musical about the life of Alison Bechdel.

I’m probably gonna upset the really hardcore comics nerds around here, but I think one way to stave off some of the superhero fatigue is to do more movies like Captain America: The Winter Soldier in between the GotG and Quantumania acid fever dream movies.

I am not a Star Wars guy, but Andor is a major course correction. Disney’s Star Wars properties have mostly been pablum (not surprising given they’re for kids), but Andor actually delivered a tightly structured story that deals with the societal implications of space Nazis.

I don’t think any Marvel movie has really been dependent on you having seen another one, with the exception of End Game. It’s not like they’re so deep that you need the context of another one to get it.

“Sir, if you just quiet down, I’d be happy to treat you to a garbage bag full of popcorn.”

Um, The Fountain and Requiem for a Dream would like a word.

Hey Charlie! I got a movie for ya: A Fridge Too Far!

That Sting’s so gentle, it’s practicing tantric sex.

Some more greats:

I came to say the same thing. It is a damn shame that Crenshaw doesn’t get the respect he is due. It is, of course, a compliment to Weird Al that he is a fan. 

Side note - always good to see a Crenshaw shout-out. He gets nowhere near enough credit for his power-pop writing excellence (except from other musicians, which I’m sure he appreciates). I’m partial to Cynical Girl and Someplace where Love Can’t Find Me, personally.

I get that articles on AVClub are here to kill time... but good god- going through this list would kill half my day.  No Thanks.  

It’s rank alright.

This is just a random list, yes?

It’s not a bad list but the order is atrocious.
