    I watched Alien Romulus last night. It was pretty meh. I appreciated some of the other movies in the universe that covered new ground, but Romulus was basically

    Tap for spoiler

    “trapped in a spaceship with aliens,” which been pretty well covered by the series so far.

      Agreed, it was just fine. I found the fan service callbacks to the previous movies pretty distracting and unnecessary.

        I really enjoyed it but fuck me the callbacks really took away from it. Like it’s a decent movie, just stand on your own. We’ve all seen Aliens.

    El Hoyo 1 and 2. Not sure of the English name, The Platform?

    Watched the first a few years back and quite liked it, went back and watched the first again for a refresh and then the second the next day. Quite enjoyed it although the second left more questions again xD

    Also watched Inside Out 1 and 2. They were alright I guess, some humorous moments. The first was definitely stronger than the second.

    Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, not as good as the first one, but not as bad either.

        Thanks! We’ll probably put on more spoopy stuff in the coming days. I’d love to see Alien: Romulus, but I’m not paying $20 to rent it. I’ve tried to torrent things, but either I’m doing something wrong, or the vpn I use is useless because my isp always sees what I’m downloading. Like, the c&d emails they send cite exactly what I download every time no matter what I do, so I’ve given up.

    Up in smoke: “classic” style weed movie

    VHS beyond: I like the V/H/S movies style and watch every one of them, since they are anthologies there’s always at least a couple of good episodes

    Deadpool & Wolverine: it’s ok

    Watched Barbarian after having it in my list for a while. It was VERY annoying seeing the main character make one bad decision after another. But somehow it was still a really good movie.

    Alien Romulus

    I really liked it. After not really following and not even watching the trailer I saw it still running in a local cinema (no 3D) and decided to watch it on a whim. It was everything I had hoped for
