I really want to see once upon a time in hollywood at some point, but I’m really hoping it hits streaming or at least a rental service. I haven’t even seen it on redbox yet.
It’ll be available to rent on December 10th, at least on VUDU as far as I know.
The Farewell and Midsommar are two films I’m finally setting time aside to check out, mostly based on the good reviews but also because this seems like a perfect time of year to watch some indies.
There are a whole bunch of animated movies I skipped the theater for, and I’m pumped to see a handful: How to Train your Dragon 3, Lego Movie 2, and Secret Life of Pets 2. Maybe Missing Link as well.
I loved FROZEN II.
Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood wrecked me absolutely. Will nailed it. They could have done a boring, whatever biopic about Fred Rogers but instead this was thoroughly beautiful in how it presented his life by examining a single story near the end of his life. I couldn’t stop tearing up throughout this.
I’m really hoping on catching up on the Comedies that have alluded me this year, like Booksmart and Late Night. I tend to not want to watch Comedies alone so I’m always looking for someone to watch them with. Any others you guys suggest?
I liked Good Boys, The Long Shot, and Fighting with My Family.
