@EaglyBird WHAT

This week i have watched 5 movies, GLADIATOR, SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, SCHINDLERS LIST, Lord of the Rings The Two Towers and INCEPTION !!!!!!!!

@EaglyBird MOAR MAI BOI SHREK?! YES!

Now to catch up on movies 3 and 4. XD

Kiki's Delivery Service (Blu-Ray) - I had intended on watching this in time for Halloween but things didn't line up as I had planned. That said, better late than never, and watching this feels like curling up in a warm blanket on a cold night. Such a comfy movie.

@RR529 It's one of my favorite Ghibli films. Up there with Totoro and Princess Mononoke.

@Ralizah Going to have to go with Ponyo myself, with Spirited Away not far behind.

@Magician I wanted to like Ponyo. I just didn't. Actually saw it in theaters when it first came out.

@EaglyBird Me too, I loved the first when I saw it in theaters. Coincidentally being about a moving as my friend I saw it with was in the process of moving. We still keep in touch and play PC and Nintendo games together.

Yeah! Looks like the tease at the end of Puss In Boots came true... Shrek 5: THE PERRITO MOVIE!!!

@IceDomino Scroll up, we're both thinking the same. So surprised by it too.

@Sunsy Didn’t see, sorry.

@EaglyBird Indeed.

We need more Perrito! DreamWorks, hear us! WE WANT OUR POSITIVE PUP!!!

@IceDomino Don't worry, it's ok.

@Link-Hero Dubbed. Ghibli films pretty much always enjoy good dubs now.

I just didn't connect with any of the characters, didn't feel any interest in the central thrust of the film (which is funny, because The Little Mermaid is my favorite Disney film, and there are heavy parallels with that), and ended up feeling like a lot of the film was just there for the sake of being pretty. It felt very style over substance to me. It also felt like a children's film, as opposed to a film about childhood, which is the distinction I'd make between this and My Neighbor Totoro.

IMO none of his post-Mononoke films have lived up to the standards of his older classics, although I've come around over the years on Howl's Moving Castle. I actually enjoyed The Secret World of Arrietty more than any of Miyazaki's stuff after Princess Mononoke, tbh. And DEFINITELY Takahata's The Tale of Princess Kaguya, which is up there with the best work of the studio.

New DreamWorks movie trailer dropped, albeit for Netflix, Orion and the Dark. I like what I see so far, it kind of giving me Rise of the Guardians vibes. Also, want to see it, I use to be afraid of the dark when I was little, so I could relate to this.

@Sunsy CHARLIE KAUFMAN AND WERNER HERZOG IN THE SAME MOVIE!!!!

watched the rest of the original The Omen this morning. still a great movie. things you never noticed the first or second time you start noticing hidden details etc from rewatching

also the rest of this weekend im going to be busy with The Omen 2, 3 and maybe Omen 4 along with Return of the Living Dead II

I watched Spirited last night. I'd never seen it, and I'd been waiting for the holiday season to watch it for the first time. It's A Christmas Carol style musical/movie with a good twist to the story - starring Will Farrell and Ryan Reynolds. It was pretty good. I will watch it again.

"Good afternoon, sir!" 😆

@WoomyNNYes GOOD AFTERNOON!!!

The Marvels was good, would recommend.

For those of us who watch animated movies... Garfield has a new movie!

@EaglyBird Me too! I really loving what I'm seeing here. The backstory looks too wholesome.

Also, this trailer was posted on a Monday, lol.
