Enjoyed Roma a lot more than Gravity. Cuaron did that, but it’s going empty-handed at the Oscars sans maybe cinematography.

American Vandal is hilarious; sucks that it was cancelled

 

I need to watch Roma asap but I'm scared it's gonna be boring? idk nn. Def will take a peek into it though

If there's a chance of watching Roma in a movie theater you should totally do it! Driving 150 miles was really worth it :jonny: 

 

Also even on Netflix i doubt you'll get bored; it's a beautiful story :heart2:

Yeah i've only heard bad things about insatiable

 

@Netflix

 

Image result for the reality is sometimes you lose beyonce

To be fair, it sounds like i'm the one who lost lol :rip: Since the show got renewed and all that

 

@Leptine is somewhere laughing...

Support the Girls, Lazzaro, & Roma! :heart2: Ughhh, still so behind on 2018 films but I've been catching up on them recently and those were highlights for me too!

Haven't watched any of the others tho :rip: 

Yas :heart2: I've been meaning to wait for 'The Favorite/Shoplifters' screeners to leak for like a potential late addition but well...

 

Most of the films there are already out/online (s/o to @Monster Boy for the Custody recommendation :heart2:)

Support The Girls & Roma! I had the pleasure of meeting Andrew Bujalski after the STG screening and he is lovely, answered all of my questions & gave me an autograph. He got a bit of trouble because he wanted the film built around a black woman, but stuck to his guns and got it made. I just downloaded AEST.

Are we surprised... Nice to hear he's a cool dude, he's definitely on my radar!

 

I hope you'll like AEST! It's really devastating :jonny:

I used to be upset with the fact that Roma was snatching the Foreign Film trophy early on... How wrong i was :jonny: As much as i'm indifferent to Netflix, i'm impressed with the way they've been promoting the movie. Though i doubt it'll get Best Picture, Cuarón absolutely deserves to win best director! He doesn't have any competition... and Yalitza>>> The other actresses

FOMO'd? Fear of missing out?

 

I like the ones I've heard, #41 has a interesting cover lol.

Ghostly Fading and Falling Into Me :heart2:

2) Insatiable – Netflix:

vYtAKpS.jpg

 

It’s nice to watch trash TV once in a while, nothing to get embarrassed over. But I hate that this is the one fomos chose to obsess over… It’s not FUNNY :fish2: it’s too loud, the acting is bad, the plot is boring, their vision of a “dark” comedy and the lack of self-awareness is all laughable… and not in a good way. But sure stick it to the sjws1!11!1!1!!

They’re both amazing and two of my top faves this year :smitten: Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!

Falling Into Me is way too low :jonny5:

but it could’ve definitely been a little shorter so it could pack more punch

Roma really is that good huh? gonna watch it on Christmas, getting my tissues readTy

 

Unsane wasnt good btw x

Nice song set! Falling into Me is definitely my fav... they snapped. LMK remix is a bop and Cinema is a nice closer but not my fav from the Ep. I heard that Raveena song recently too, I think she has potential!

TV:

#20 - #16

 

 

 

20. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend - CW:

802zwP0.jpg

 

After the disappointing and almost frustrating season 3 ending, the beloved CW rom-com/drama/musical came back on top again dealing with the aftermath of Rebecca pleading guilty to the murder of her crazy stalker. First of all, I’m glad we only got one episode of her going to jail. At the beginning it felt like her journey towards honesty and making up with her past was a little superficial and self-absorbed. Thankfully those fears were squashed! Every episode is a delight, from the music to the storylines. The special care the show has for its characters is beautiful :heart2: You can tell there’s a lively energy going on. And despite her faults, Rebecca and the people around her are all evolving for an even better version of themselves. Even Josh is kinda reflecting on his behavior. I'm hyped to see how it all ends!

 

 

 

19. Sally4Ever – Sky/HBO:

00AOt7j.jpg

 

This is like the only show on my list that made me laugh out loud throughout its run :ahh: It’s sick, disgusting, crazy, brilliant all of that! You got these respected British actors doing some of the nastiest **** on TV, it feels a bit more explicit for HBO’s standards lol. The story is about a miserable bored woman named Sally who abandons her partner and gets in a new relationship with a very twisted lady. Both Davis and Shepherd are ****ing good here! Especially the latter playing the straight man which is hard when you got that type of dialogue :skull: Anyway i loved this show a lot, it probably deserves to be higher, and I’m definitely downloading Davis’ other work!

 

 

 

18. Insecure - HBO:

gA4jxZo.jpg

 

Third season was my favorite (which is ironic since I put S2 way higher lol). First, the decision of leaving Lawrence behind for a while was very beneficial. I thought the Issa/Daniel drama was handled very well, at least we know why they can’t be together despite how much they share in common. Molly’s issues on her new firm was one of my favorite storylines this season, I like it when any show in general addresses the specific issue of being too ambitious in your field. It’s an angle that’s rarely explored on TV, especially on comedies. Kelli facing the new reality in reference to her friendship with Tiffany and the latter’s pregnancy was very touching. And last but not least Issa’s evolution on this season! I’m glad she finally decided to leave We Got Y'all, there was nothing new to add there so a new setting was much more welcomed + refreshing, and her new relationship with Nathan offered three 10/10 episodes ("High-Like", “Fresh-Like”, "Obsessed-Like") + another Emmy FYC worthy moments from Issa Rae. Can’t wait for S4!

 

 

 

17. Inside No. 9 – BBC Two:

jf1sfK8.jpg

 

This is what the Duplass bros think they are/were doing with that try hard pretentious garbage that is Room 104 and failed. A clever yet unsettling half hour anthology that manages to shock, surprise and delight you at the same time. Although Shearsmith & Pemberton’s offering has yet to beat the masterpiece that is “The 12 Days of Christine” they still came close with the sweet lighthearted, shakespeare inspired “Zanzibar” and the devastating “Bernie Clifton’s Dressing Room” (I dare you not to shed a tear at that one)

 

 

 

16. Baskets - FX:

9wOn9H9.jpg

 

s/o to @Wicked and @Mr Greenbird (the only people who have seen it) for recommending this to me. I remember being unimpressed by the pilot when I first seen it. If it wasn’t for those two talking about it (and that one publication who compared it to Enlightened) I wouldn’t get back it to it, but I’m glad i did! It’s an intimate and gentle portrayal of family bonding, despair, and communication. Despite them all trying to get the family rodeo business thriving, they all seemed lost and far from each other.

 

And Christine ugh… That woman has been through enough. If that thanksgiving episode didn’t get you in your feels then I don’t know what to tell you. After all the sacrifices she made, she deserves better than those kids. Also let’s not forget about Martha, she needs to find happiness as well.

 

I’m mad none of these YELs highlighted the show or Louie Anderson’s insane work on the season, and yet they still whine abt peak TV!11!!!!

Unsane wasnt good btw x

Nice to see another Brosnahan stan :heart2: 

 

Take it from someone who was wary of all the early acclaim, Roma was indeed worth the hype! I feel like you'll love Knife + Heart (it's very queer + the end credits :jonny: )

 

Was it the basic premise that turned u off from Unsane??

Thanks!! yeah i think so too, I'm a sucker for silky smooth vocals so i'm here for whatever she's releasing!

Not you putting 'Succession' out of the top20 after hyping the whole show for all the Summer, it deserved top10 at least, I-

Posted

Lady. :heart2: Laura snapped on Late to the Flight, but I didn't really go back to the album that much. Cauiton is nice, Mariah made a few points this year.

 

Crazy-ex has been good this season, but it's the last one so I'm gonna need them to step it up for the second half.
