I don’t know who needs to hear this but Anchorman still holds up.

 

Reservoir Dogs episode is LIVE
Reservoir Dogs (1992) by Mad-Dad Movie Review • A podcast on Anchor

 

Tbh...kind of did need to hear this.

 

I've been rewatching a lot of comedies from around 2003 - 2006 recently and some don't hold up but Anchorman still rules

 

Haha...I've been wanting to go down that road, but I'm afraid of what I'll find.

 

Watched Wedding Crashers the other week and there are some iffy moments in there for sure

 

Now that one I do watch at least once a year whenever I'm sick or something. The line delivery is on point the entire film, but yes, it definitely has it's problematic parts.

 

Oh god wedding crashers is like the most problematic movie ever made

 

I think waiting beats it

 

Yea Waiting is pretty bad.

 

I think there's a ton of 90s and early 00s movies that could go head to head to head for most problematic

 

The 80s are pretty out of control if you ask me haha.

 

yeah true, the era of National Lampoon haha

 

I'm a weird mix of excited and nervous

 

sounds potentially cool.

 

yikes

 

Conner O’Malley: The Weird and the Normal

Reverse Shot did a feature on Conner O'Malley's videos. Hell yeah!

 

I violated my own rule, always read the article before posting. There are a ton of other creative minds that make me more excited. Liu Cixin will help out like Martin did at the start of GoT, Rian Johnson will also be a producer as well as Plan B Entertainment (Ad Astra, Lost City of Z, Moonlight, Okja). Good producers don't necessarily equal good content, but it's somewhat reassuring nevertheless.

 

I watched top gun for the first time. Why is everyone so sweaty all the time?

 

Playing volleyball in jeans will do that to you.

as someone who loved the source material, this fuckin sucks

 

cocaine?

 

My main hangup (outside B&W) is probably Netflix. Many seem to think they chose to produce this so they can enter the Chinese market. I think there's probably some truth to that and it's possible they then gave it to B&W simply because they had that massive contract already signed with Netflix. So are they doing it because they like the source material or is it just a job? Also, I'm nervous they whitewash the shit out of it and recontextualize it for western viewers.

Still, there are enough other people attached to the project to keep me excited.
