Midweek Movie Free Talk
Have you watched any movies recently you want to discuss? Any films you want to recommend or are hyped about? Feel free to discuss anything here.
Please just try to provide fair warning of spoilers if you can.
It's been a while, so I realize that I have an obnoxiously long list. But does anyone want to talk about any of the following?
Long list
The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005): ★☆☆
I've really struck out on comedies lately.
Pressure (2026): ★★☆
Spider Man Homecoming (2017): ★☆☆
Even the abbreviation for this movie is "SMH". /s
Seriously though, it wasn't terrible, and I'm torn between one and two stars. I'm leaning more toward one just because this is a part of my Marvel catch-up, so there's an opportunity cost of watching something else.
Toy Story 4 (2019): ★★☆
The General (1926): ★★☆
Three Ages (1923): ★★★
Vertigo (1958): ★☆☆
Darkest Hour (2017): ★★☆
The Hunt For Red October (1990): ★★★
Drive Away Dolls (2024): ★☆☆
I was looking for something short, and this was less than an hour and a half. Bad decision.
Obsession (2025): ★☆☆
KPop Demon Hunters (2025): ★★☆
Ponyo (2008): ★★★
I love 40 year old virgin because of how relatable it was to me even though I lost my virginity at 24. I suppose you don’t like Judd Apatow though.
Why didn’t you like Obsession?
If I had to do a quick top 5 of this year so far now that we’re half way through:
I might have to rewatch Obsession because I ultimately gave it a 3/5 so rewatching it might bump it up. But having two Charli XCX projects on my list is pretty funny.
