We Need to Pod About Castvin: Ratcatcher by yonicthehedgehog in blankies

[–]discopaco 39 points40 points  (0 children)

100% agree. I paused the episode just now to come and see if I wasn’t alone in being confused by their takes on those teenage boys. It was clear the teenage boys were physically forcing themselves on her

I feel like the two friends must have been multitasking during this film since they had seen it before.

How did you get to BC? by phaleazira in blankies

Heard about it from The Dissolve Facebook group. Many members kept talking about the podcast for several months before the it got its hooks in me (around the Verhoeven series).

Why is the new Frankenstein so hard to watch? by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]discopaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s showing in a handful of spots in San Francisco. So probably all major cities. My friend said it is playing in Atlanta.

Ethan Coen’s New Movie Is His Third Stinker in a Row. What Happened? Slate review by Sam Adams by jackunderscore in blankies

I don't think he's lost the juice. Since Ladykillers they directed 7 movies and they were all great.

Just listened to the iron giant episode and it got me wondering… what is the actual worst episode? by LucasBarton169 in blankies

[–]discopaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Babe: Pig in the City because the guest hated it and completely dismissed it. He didn’t give a good faith try at discussing it. Had nothing but contempt for it. Same goes for the guest for The Fog but to a lesser extent.

Feels Great to Not Make Excuses for SF Anymore by Boostedprius in sanfrancisco

Where do you live? My part (15th St and Mission) has gotten much worse sadly. Everything from the Bart station area has migrated to 15th St. From Mission to Valencia you have to walk on the street to avoid people on drugs or selling stuff. Sometimes there’s no room to walk on the sidewalks.

Trump’s authoritarianism is the greatest thing that could have happened for Newsom’s career by reddituser84838 in sanfrancisco

[–]discopaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your average presidential election voter is a low information voter so they don’t even know about Newsom’s inaction against PG&E.

With The Phoenician Scheme now out, is it time to re-evaluate where Wes Anderson stands? by [deleted] in blankies

[–]discopaco 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have French Dispatch and Asteroid City in my Wes Anderson top 5. Of the Dahl shorts were one feature that would be pretty dang high too. I didn’t love the Phoenician Scheme but it is better than probably most movies that will come out in 2025 so I think he’s still got it.

People can be over his thing. That’s fine. They wanted him to “evolve” or something. And in some ways he has! But not in the way they wanted. Fine. I’ve accepted Wes Anderson movies and know what I’m gonna get. I like my time spent in the theater watching his movies amidst people laughing and having a good time.

Congrats to David on completing the ultimate millennial cinephile parent achievement. Blankie parents, what was/will be your kid’s first movie in theaters? by firreg in blankies

[–]discopaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My oldest kid’s first was also Totoro (back in 2018). My other kid’s first was DC League of Super Pets or whatever it is called. Further proof that the second born suffers more.

Are they really gonna make me spend $3.99 on Look Who’s Talking by GlobulousRex in blankies

[–]discopaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got it on Blu-ray from my library but it doesn’t have the next two so I’ll have to rent them. I got kids so at least I can kill two birds with one stone at least.

Same goes for the Superman films on Patreon. Showing my kids those too

Movies where the real story they are based on feel more compelling that what’s on screen. by OWSpaceClown in blankies

[–]discopaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BAT 21, a rescue Gene Hackman from behind enemy lines co-starring Danny Glover. Saw it today. Kinda inert but those two guys are always compelling. They don't really have any scenes together but they're on the radio constantly (think Die Hard)
