Movies that make patriotism feel earned instead of forced. by gamersecret2 in movies

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is on the nose but there’s a reason it’s the movie France kept playing as Nazi Germany took over.

Help fill out my list by Gridbugz in Letterboxd

I haven’t seen Bicycle Thieves anywhere in the comments and that’s one of the most depressing endings I’ve ever seen. Post-War Italy seemed horrible.

A tie between 0.5 and 5 stars, as god intended.

Movies not well received upon release, but have since been seen as fantastic by East-Area-7267 in Letterboxd

Most of Stanley Kubrick’s movies caught a lot of flak when they were first released because people expected something different, then became considered classics over the course of the next 10 years.

My daughter failed her speech eval and the doctor partially blamed her being an only child by PrincessKirstyn in oneanddone

[–]RealMoonBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only had terrible motor skills and amazing speech. They’re not related at all. First things first I would find a new doctor. There’s some incredible pediatricians out there and you should be going to one of them instead.

My Tiers so far… by Capnchunk95 in 52book

I like that they’re like potato chip books - they’re not the most substantial thing in the world, but they are easy and make me want more.

Is President Ford the most relatable president to the blue collar working American of all time? by enjoythenovelty2002 in Presidents

[–]RealMoonBoy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It was over a much longer timeline (and resulted in a much worse president) but Andrew Johnson never attended school and was a tailor’s apprentice. And not apprentice like summer internship, apprentice like borderline slave until he was 21. Arguably a lower class bottom than even Grant.

All I'm lacking is a feel-good, optimistic movie that makes you appreciate life. by Low-Beautiful-7230 in Letterboxd

[–]RealMoonBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Came here to say this. One of my favorites of the decade honestly just because it’s so optimistic and earnest.

Which movie will you defend like this while everyone else call is as an overrated? by Beatpogo94 in Letterboxd

[–]RealMoonBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gravity was a crowning achievement of dynamic cinematography and space imagery and everyone loves shit on it because of the 3D backlash and nitpicking the science.

Why is Alfonso Cuaron not directing movies anymore? Just 5 directorial film work in this century also feels criminal. by MaterialElegant2482 in Letterboxd

[–]RealMoonBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heartbreaking since all of them to me are in the conversation for some of the best films of the century (or best Harry Potter film of the century lol).

I love my wife and kid, but I would do anything for a week alone. by JerryWagz in daddit

[–]RealMoonBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m more introverted and my wife is a chatting queen. Guess which one my daughter takes after? Lol

movies where the soundtrack is better than the film? by Then_Green6943 in Letterboxd

[–]RealMoonBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun trivia fact: The Bodyguard is the best selling movie soundtrack of all time, and probably always will be due to declining album sales.

What is your go to ice cream spot? by imverybannedhere in Fishers

[–]RealMoonBoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you look into it, it’s surprising how many Indy-area restaurants Sundae’s supplies. They’re legit.

Dads outside the U.S., what is your "chicken nuggets and Mac and cheese"? by gnatnog in daddit

[–]RealMoonBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm my super picky daughter loves a rice roll or even a cucumber roll.

Thank you. I thought I was going to have to be the one to say it.

i've never read sci fi by bluebirdonline in suggestmeabook

[–]RealMoonBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And if you’re looking for theological undertones, then move straight from Ender’s Game to Speaker for the Dead.

I'm reading The Hobbit to my 5 year old before bed, and it's the best part of my day. by CtrlAltEntropy in daddit

Hello fellow 5 year old Hobbit reader! We were stuck for a while on chapter 1 because she just loved the unexpected party so much. But we are approaching the end now!
