I have seen surprisingly few new movies so far this year, and peeling them out of memory is going to take a bit...I just started EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE the other day in on demand, got about a half hour in before needing to go do something else...despite being a great fan of Michelle Yeoh, who was impressive, and while I think I've enjoyed what I've seen so more than you did in your viewing, I can see why you might not've found it all that impressive, in terms of excessive cuteness. The "fun" of trying to dance between three languages was more amusing to me, perhaps, than it might be to some, as well, as someone who has had my occasional experience in trying to translate in my insufficient Spanish and smattering of Japanese, Mandarin, Italian et al.
Definitely mean to see TAR, BANSHEES and a few others. The only film I've seen in a theater for the last several years remains a revival of HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE with Alice and a quartet of young women, maskless, who plopped down next to me on the other side from Alice in a nearly empty theater.
Loved Banshees, saw top gun but none of the others yet.
I need to see EEAAAO again. The first showing I was overwhelmed by the martial arts and couldn't see past it.
I still haven't caught up with After Sun and Decision to Leave among others.
We so rarely watch movies these days I doubt we've seen more than a dozen all year. We do have THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN on the DVR, and GLASS ONION is starting on Netflix today or tomorrow. Not enough money to make me sit through TOP GUN. I hated the first one.
OK, I did see more than a dozen. Most of the ones I enjoyed the most were documentaries, like THREE IDENTICAL STRANGERS and MISS ANGELA.
I forgot to include docs. Maybe another category. Dying to see the Nan Goldin one. Loved the Nancy Pelosi one.
I haven't seen a lot of movies on Patti's list yet. So here it goes. In no specific order.
1. The Fabelmans
2. Decision to Leave
3. The Outfit
4. This Much I Know to Be True
5. The Banshees of Inisherin
6. Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio
7. The Northman
8. Moonage Daydream
9. Blonde
10. Bullet Train
worst-Everything Everywhere All At Once and Nope.
Patti, my FAVORITE MOVIES OF 2022 will be up on my blog next week. We both have TOP GUN: MAVERICK on our lists!
We just watched The Banshees of Inishiren. What a mind the man has.
I haven't seen any of the movies yet but I would like to see TOP GUN: MAVERICK. Never saw the first one but I think this one would be interesting. Also want to see GLASS ONION soon since it is now on Netflix.
Im screwing up a lot lately. Anonymous was me. Since then I have watched Glass Onion-good and the new All Quiet On the Western Front-best movie of the year.
