Yeah, took my kids to see it last weekend and we all thought it was great. They love the show and it definitely held up to the series.

The music is some of the best stuff on that show, they did a great job in the movie, but in the series they have some really great stuff too. I'd recommend checking it out.

i saw sorry to bother you this weekend. it was good and weird as hell.

also, somewhat related, moviepass is pretty trash now. there were no showings available of anything before 4 or 430pm yesterday in the suburbs. bryn mawr film had a 430 and 7 STBY and only the 930 was available on moviepass. yet strangely both ritzes had all showings for everything available, even eighth grade which came out friday. i know they're trying to be trash now so they lose subscribers but damn.

Eighth Grade is a (mostly) gentle , little film, and too well-grounded to ever be outright hilarious, but still enjoyable and well worth seeing.

Tully I guess pulled off a good trick by making it impossible to talk about if you've seen it

Thanks for the reminder. Never saw that when it came out, but meant to catch up with it.

[Reveal] Spoiler:
i hate to rehash this but I left my kindle home while on vacation, and my wife is starting the southern reach trilogy. I just picked it up where she was in Authority and I’m annoyed again at Alex Garland. “I never read the other books.”I mean that’s a lie. Then I was pissed again that the coolest part of the book is what Annihilation means and that doesn’t factor into the books at all. I’m glad Garland doesn’t want to do anymore movies bc he wouldn’t know what to do with Acceptance. I did love Du Ex Machina though

Willoughby's wife in Three Billboards was exquisitely bad casting. like a practical joke

I didn't really catch any dissonance. Did you maybe know the actress from something else? (I didn't though I guess I saw her in seven Psychopaths).

the first time she shows up, it's just pretty weird that she looks 25 and is married to 60 year good ol boy Willoughby. then the first speaking line she has is a dick joke in a British accent so you have to wait until her next line to realize that the British accent wasn't part of the joke and that I guess Willoughby is just such a stand up guy (in spite of not being one) he's attracting trophy wives from across the pond or wooing fellows from the local University? or is it that in this movie's moral universe, this a feign to make me reconsider my own prejudices?

I thought it was funny

Hmmm, now that you mention it I might have had some of the same thoughts. Didn't really stick with me, but that may have been because she doesn't have a lot to do the rest of the film.

IRL, of course, she's 36 and Harrelson's 58, so in Hollywood terms she's lucky she didn't play his mother.

My wife just sent me a trailer, but she won't watch it. I'm wondering if it's worth a watch.


Just saw it this afternoon. Has some spooky stuff, and the actors do what they can, but in the end gets too unintentionally funny and silly to be truly scary. Not the worst way to spend two hours, but not essential to see.


Just watched it, and this is spot in. I also think they try and push to many emotional things into it.
