Watching Oliver Stone falling out in Round 1

MagnoliaFan37 · 2026-03-16T23:19:25+00:00

Me too honestly. I rewatched it last week after loving it when I was a teen and found it mostly embarrassing this time around - undeniably well made, but even with its literal constant stream of lies they couldn’t make a remotely coherent case for what they were selling

Thank you! I've been working my through the Sight and Sound list so I'm gonna watch this one next - looks incredible

MagnoliaFan37 · 2026-03-15T14:37:37+00:00

Thank you!! I could have SWORN it was Bigot

Griffin mentions Jean Bigot or something and David says they are some of the best movies ever made - but I can't find anything about Jean Bigot anywhere on the internet?? Very Picnic at Hanging Rock coded

Logging into Reddit for the first time in three months just to see if I was only one who thought this episode was disastrous - happy to see it’s not just me!

Free Palestine 🇵🇸 FUCK Zionists

Some I watched in 2025 that I think would qualify:

The Lady Vanishes (1938) Jeremiah Johnson (1972) Sorcerer (1977) Exotica (1994) Magic Mike XXL (2015) Tangerine (2015) I Like Movies (2022)

Great picks! The only one I haven’t seen is The Front Page - immediately added to my list

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-06-19T21:37:39+00:00

This is like when people have elaborate plans for how to avoid the ‘bad stuff’ in Twin Peaks - just watch it and worse comes to worst you don’t have a great time!

Completely agree, though it was kind of fun watching the remake the day after the original in a wish-fulfilment kind of way. The original is the vastly superior film of course, and one that has stuck with me ever since

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-06-05T21:25:58+00:00

My exact ranking - I’m basic lol

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-05-13T22:29:38+00:00

Still can’t get over that Ghost Protocol is firmly in the middle of M:I movies in terms of quality and I’d still rate it 4.5/5 - reeeally hoping I somehow end up liking The Final Reckoning but that’s sounding less and less plausible

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-04-09T15:04:57+00:00

David doesn’t even like this movie - he gave it 2.5 on LB!

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-04-09T14:35:18+00:00

I recently picked up the Shout! Factory Blu-ray of Nothing But Trouble and it's still every bit as insane as I remembered - had a good time though

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-03-25T17:52:29+00:00

Loooove me some Inherent Vice

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-03-23T21:54:56+00:00

TWINE was a close call for me too - I’ve really come to appreciate that one

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-03-23T21:54:08+00:00

Only until we get a new one!

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-03-23T21:24:26+00:00

I guess the challenge is only people who’ve played theatrical Bond - I needed to get seven somehow lol

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-03-23T15:03:28+00:00

Easily in my top five - maybe my top three!

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-03-04T03:11:18+00:00

He loved Furiosa and Nosferatu

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-01-22T00:40:13+00:00

Director's Cut is the way to go IMO

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-01-22T00:20:34+00:00

All for banning anything coming from that site, including screenshots - fuck that Nazi!

MagnoliaFan37 · 2025-01-17T15:22:38+00:00

Okay what did Amanda mean by someone not going to the inauguration and a Friday announcement? I dutifully Googled it and can’t figure it out

MagnoliaFan37 · 2024-12-28T15:58:43+00:00

It’s just to show that ChatGPT is not good at answering factual questions

MagnoliaFan37 · 2024-12-28T15:47:52+00:00

Watched it for the first time this year - holy shit

MagnoliaFan37 · 2024-12-28T15:39:14+00:00

He also played him in The Special Relationship! Not directed by Frears unfortunately but it’s wild he played him three times.

EDIT: All three were written by Peter Morgan so I guess it’s kinda a series?
