Really enjoying this, the episode i watched today where she learns all her co-worker’s names was just golden. There’s a deep melancholia about the whole series that i’m here for - someone determined not to be told how to achieve happiness and finding their own contentment in the mundane.

Wes, you went full Anderson. Everybody knows you never go full Anderson.

I saw that on a flight recently. It is Anderson’s worst film.

Bleh. I gave up on his tedious efforts a long time ago.

You bumped the movie to top of list for me, so I watched it late on Christmas Day. It’s such a well done film. And that ending (which I read that some critics saw as a shortcoming) was perfect.

I’d recently watched Godzilla vs. Kong because it was on Netflix and i thought why not, but it’s instantly forgettable and i had no interest in, what i thought was, yet another CG stuffed videogame with paper thin characters. Word of mouth seemed to be building its reputation as a must-see film and after going to see it tonight i gotta agree because i loved it, this thing has real heart to it. I can’t even fathom how they made this on a relatively small budget.

Sim, sim. This part of the Cartoon is really cool and touching. She’s not an edgy idiot doing meaningless things or a badass having crazy adventures lá ke many cartoon characteres these days. On the contrary, she wants and seeks meaning in life, for herself and for others.
I liked Godzilla Minus One too. What a nice movie. I remember watching kaiju movies just to laugh at the lame effects and absurd scripts. This new film made me pay attention to the scenes on the big screen and let go of that blasé teenage attitude. This is a good film, with a well-written script and themes that concern all of us in the 21st century.

Yes, unfortunately. I am aware that VFX artists around the world are overworked and underpaid. To get the CG in the film looking this good for that budget i fear they suffered many crunch days for a pittance.

It’s on Crunchy Roll, but you can probably find it on something like Amazon?
