Thank you. Was not aware of this either and was unclear on the premise of this movie.

I love Prey. I especially love how it introduces those French trappers to provide fodder for both the Predator and Midthunder. It’s thematically clever - what with them being hunters and all - and so fucking satisfying. 

There’s not enough love for all three of these movies. Fantastic trilogy.

Ouiji: Origins of Evil is unintentionally hilarious but certainly not worthy of being on a list of “best” anything. My wife and I laughed all the through it, though not anywhere near as hard as we did for Conjuring 2. I know we’re in the minority of thinking it’s a train wreck but I honestly don’t know why anyone

Ginger Snaps Back is a big omission!

Of these, I’ve only seen Prey and Pearl, both I liked a lot. I would say Hannibal seasons 1-2 would qualify as an amazing prequel, covering new ground that’s only referenced in the books and films at best, and season 2 I’d argue is better than any of the movies.

adding Prometheus means the list needed padding.

For all that the commentariat love to shit on him (and I’m not wholly innocent here) for not being a Downey-Jr-level attention- magnet”

I’m going to take out this tape of you fighting fraud, and show you this OTHER tape of traitors trying to overthrow democracy and install a fascist dictator...THAT IS YOU!!!!!!!

Guys let me say something...I’m an insurrectionist...you see, what you did on this tape here looks a lot like what me and my insurrectionist

I wish they would, Pesto is generally the worst part of the show. I really liked the era before they got the new voice actor.

I remember thinking when I saw him on Sarah Silverman that he seemed a little too good at playing a square authoritarian figure for someone who works in comedy.

I made a joke that there should be a Bob’s Burgers episode where Jimmy Pesto thinks Bob is grinding up kids in his basement for burgers and then I remembered that’s almost literally the pilot.

I never would have imagined a venn diagram where Mr Show and January 6th overlap

This is the longest, most committed bit I’ve seen from a comedian since Andy Kaufman. Bravo.

I always love when Audrey gets to play less standard roles.  Wait Until Dark is fantastic and pretty grimey compared to Roman Holiday.  She had an impressive range.

I do like that one a lot! It’s a very strange movie, and surprisingly downbeat (or anyway, I was surprised by that aspect of it), but Connery and Hepburn are both indeed terrific. Was a favorite of my dad’s, too, IIRC. On the other hand, I do think it vaguely supports my feeling that she maybe wasn’t exactly the right

In retrospect, Audrey Hepburn was the perfect star for this period; though she didn’t fully retire at the end of the 1960s, she did almost all of her most famous work in the 15-year span from 1952 to 1967. It’s as if she was acknowledging that she was modern enough for full-color widescreen spectacle yet not

I thought it was the otherway around.  Audrey finding it acceptable since she was tired of having to be the passive love interest of waaaaay older men.  Love in the Afternoon is alright but Gary Cooper does not sell it whatsoever for example. 

Two For the Road is a very well done end of a marriage film.  Its also maybe the only role where Audrey plays a more antagonistic role.  She has a scene where she basically threatens a child and its great!  Only downside, is the barbs her and Finney throw at each other really does make it feel like a collapsing

For the record, Hitchcock wanted Hepburn to be in Marnie. Since the role required the character to have a rape scene, she turned that down for obvious reasons.
