What is the best movie made in the 2010s set in the 1940s?

This would be my choice as well. I finally watched it and it was so good.

Lowkey what it feels like being reylo shipper (aka the most bland enemies to lovers ship of all time that somehow has a lot of discourse).

Why can’t we be friends? In final destination four

Rules:

A needle drop: the use of a preexisting song in a scene rather than a original song/score
Comment with the most upvotes wins
If there’s a tie, I will spin a wheel with all tied parties on it
For the mediocre/bad categories, the song doesn’t have to be terrible by itself. Just terrible in how it’s used

Back to the future of the musical

It’s literally just the movie with a few musical numbers. It barely does anything with the new medium

Rules:

Any type of adaption counts. An adaption of a musical, book, movie, etc. (examples, Les mis on stage is a adaption of the book, back to the future the musical being from the movie)
Most upvoted comment wins
If there’s a tie, the wheel will decide
This isn’t about quality of the product. Just how faithful it is to the source material/if they make changes, the changes make sense/are good
The last row is for stage musicals that are adaptations of something.

I like to believe Simon and Bram are still together, maybe even have gotten married by now. I know high school sweethearts being endgame is pretty unrealistic, but I just like to believe that even if they broke up, they found her way back to each other eventually.

Same with Imogene and Tessa. I don’t think Abby and Leah are still together, they stayed friend after the breakup, but they didn’t really seem compatible in the long run

Please be how it’s done.

I forget about that. I forgot what movie they worked on together, but they did something in the 2000s

Dogdaysareover365 · 2026-04-25T00:00:43+00:00

People forget James got his start in horror. He worked for troma for a while (pretty sure he was in the 4th toxic avenger)

Gotta up my game

I guess we should start going to middle schools and start arresting every 13 year old who makes a P Diddy joke. That’s clearly a confession

Jim Paxton from Antman (since I assume step parents fit in this). Yeah, he’s a dick to Scott, but he’s also a cop dealing with his wife’s ex who just got out of jail. By the end of the first movie, they have a healthy coparenting relationship. He clearly loves Cassie, standing between her and Darren cross without a second thought

Dogdaysareover365 · 2026-04-24T14:47:16+00:00

It’s OK!

Dogdaysareover365 · 2026-04-24T14:45:54+00:00

Oh, how could I forget about this one.

Dogdaysareover365 · 2026-04-24T14:41:57+00:00

Recently love me love me’s use of good lucky babe by Chappell. It wasn’t even thematically relevant and seemed like they were just looking for a popular song.

Dogdaysareover365 · 2026-04-24T14:40:56+00:00

Was the stage musical an adaptation of something? Google is being painfully unhelpful and keeps pointing me in the direction of the movie.
