What Movies Have You Seen Recently?

The Shape of Water

glad del toro saw ET as a kid and thought "i want to do that but with more sex"
 
Barbie in Rock 'N Royals

Just avoid the trailers. They're full of spoilers, like most Barbie movies unfortunately. Thankfully I watched the actual movie before the trailers.
 
I'm saying that unfortunately, most Barbie movie trailers spoil the endings to their respective movies, especially Barbie in the Nutcracker. Not only has the ending to that film been shown in trailers, but in TV commercials for the merchandise as well!
 
Barbie Spy Squad

Even though it felt like a Totally Spies episode stretched to 76 minutes, it was pretty awesome and action-packed!

I must really love Barbie movies. I seem to watch Barbie movie after Barbie movie.

Also, I'm pumped for the upcoming Barbie live-action film!
 
Get Out (it was good)
Bright (it was not)
Kong: Skull Island (it was essentially King Kong without the terrible ending, so I enjoyed it)

why... why would you ever watch bright

Honestly? I didn't know about Max Landis being garbage at the time, so the only reason was because it was directed by David Ayer, and I liked Suicide Squad. It actually took me two attempts because I turned it off after 15 minutes and then almost fell asleep when I decided to finish it.

What issue do you have with the traditional Kong ending? I loved Skull Island, but avoiding the original ending wasn't really a reason for me. And outside of featuring Kong and Skull Island, it actually has very little in common with the original Kong. It feels more like Jurassic Park or a Showa era Godzilla film.
 
Maybe "it was beauty killed the beast" was more poignant in 1933 than when Jack Black says it in 2005 (the latter is what I've seen), but the circumstances of Kong's death never felt believable to me, especially now that I've seen Skull Island. What stands out most to me from King Kong is a bunch of people getting killed by the fauna of the island while trying to incapacitate Kong, and in that sense, Skull Island is very similar to it.
