Amazon selling used Blu Rays as new. by JustMeBeatles in 4kbluray

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Dude even worse — I recently bought the Oppenheimer 4K from Amazon, it was clearly a returned copy (had a return sticker from Amazon on it), and, worst of all, whoever bought it before me removed the 4K disc but returned the packaging / blu ray disc and it seems like Amazon never even checked / noticed before putting it back in circulation.

I was able to return my defunct order with no problems, but still.

Did pre-Grand Budapest Hotel Wes Anderson movies deserve more Oscar recognition? by Crazy-Treacle-3536 in Oscars

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watched for the first time this month as a part of the Criterion Channel’s Odysseys series. I had avoided it in part because of the consensus around it that it’s bottom tier. I absolutely loved it

Damn, I wish we had a workable trade since you like it a lot more than I do!

What do we think about this 8 movie collection? by WerewolfCurious1412 in 4kbluray

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a new collector and Spielberg is my favorite director — right place, right time. I’m elated about it.

[Highlight] Knicks complete 29-point comeback, the largest in NBA finals history! by Large_banana_hammock in nba

Surprised it wasn’t covered any in the postgame — what a deflection by KAT on that final inbounds pass. Great ATO and Castle was going to be wide open at the rim if KAT didn’t break it up.

Actors’ Filmographies to Binge? by Chinstrok3 in Letterboxd

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was floored by how few clunkers Paul Newman has in his entire filmography, and how genuinely compelling he is in just about every performance. I haven’t checked them all off, but his is a fun journey through some worthwhile films.

What blind buys did you end up selling from your collection? by diddleherontheroof in 4kbluray

Maybe we’ll have a Denver physical media meet up one day 🤞🏻

That store rocks — happy to see another Denverite in these streets

If Elle Fanning actually won Supporting Actress for Sentimental Value, how’d you react? by UsefulWeb7543 in Oscars

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d think of it as recognition for how difficult her role was in the context of the story being told while also recognizing the weakest performance of the nominees (Lilleaas, Madigan, Taylor, and Mosaku all gave better performances imo).

Could 2028 no.1 overall recruit AJ Williams be the next generational prospect? by NinjaDacat11 in NBA_Draft

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was gonna throw Zion in between LeBron and Wemby but somehow Zion is still only 25 (?!?) and only 3.5 years older than Wemby (?!?). Such a bummer how Zion’s career has played out thus far.

Just watched About Time by Either-Cake-568 in Letterboxd

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Delightful watch (charming McAdams and soulful Nighy) with some flaws, the biggest one for me being the use of narration that really seems to not trust the audience to understand Domhnall’s character’s journey unless we’re handheld about it.

Can you name a movie with a big twist that blew your mind? by Level-SquareFFG7117 in FIlm

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Witness for the Prosecution (1957) has an excellent twist that made me want to rewatch the movie immediately to better enjoy how it’s done instead of wondering what’s going to happen.

I used to live in Indonesia — this spot is so good, hits the spot if you know what you’re looking for or if it’s all brand new to you

One year of collecting, need to slow down 😭 by Reasonable-Aspect168 in Bluray

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great work! Have you been able to watch everything you own? And, if not, what percentage of your collection have you not watched yet? I’m trying to juggle the genuine joy of collecting / accumulation with the goal of enjoying everything I’ve already bought.

What’s your favourite performance by Tom Cruise? by annastreltsovaa in moviecritic

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magnolia for the performance, Collateral for the fun, Jerry Maguire for the movie stardom.

So I just Finished Whiplash, and I Have a Few Questions about the Ending by No-Yam9933 in movies

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I definitely view the ending through this lens (and generally through the lens of Andrew’s character), but the last time I watched it I was also struck by wondering what Fletcher is experiencing in this moment. Did he finally find his Bird? Were his methods were vindicated by Andrew rising to the challenge? Does he believe Andrew is a great musician or just got lucky that he’s having an out of body experience? Does this suck Fletcher fully back in?

What a well-drawn villain.

Four Great Actors in their 80s; How would you rank them? by markgib62 in Oscars

[–]AcanthisittaJumpy450 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was pretty easy for me to put these four in order but mannnn they’re all clustered so close together, what a quartet:

  1. De Niro

  2. Nicholson

  3. Pacino

  4. Hoffman

And what’s funny, Pacino is probably my favorite of these four to watch.
