I lied to my friend saying I was still sick so that I could get out of going to the bar with her tonight LOL. BUT I AM READY.

Also, if we need ideas, Top Gun: Maverick is on Prime now haha. As well as the 2022 hit horror movie Smile.

top gun: maverick was boring because it was not campy and gay

I want to see smile even tho it has my least favorite horror movie trope

squirrels_oh_no March 26 2023, 00:22:26 UTC

I enjoyed Smile. I liked it more than Barbarian, which I feel like I'm in the minority on.

Nope is also on Prime now!

ooh, maybe next week we'll do Smile. I've been wanting to see it.

as for Top Gun... if y'all really want to. I'm pretty meh about it but I will listen to the majority!

wait I thought this movie took place in the future

I mean technically it did but I don't think 4 years from the present really counts as the future-future

squirrels_oh_no March 26 2023, 00:16:45 UTC

It was the Future relative to 1995! And it takes place at new years so 5 years haha

Just FYI for people wanting to watch it the beginning scenes have pov sex scenes. I totally forgot about this the second time I watched it. With my very prudish father. Super embarrassing for both of us.

There is also another pov scene that def needs a trigger warning which i plan on providing when it comes time.

frejasface March 26 2023, 00:22:03 UTC

Yesss, I'll be there

I love Strange Days! One of my favorite late-night HBO/Cinemax films.

Also, this film is scarily similar to today's modern day police forces.

This is a great review/reflection on the film and it's themes.
