Watched it again last night, but Legend of Hei. Chinese animated film I have on Blu-ray/DVD through Shout! Factory. Love the Chinese dub because I personally don't like how they use an English translation for a few different characters names. Watched on my Blu-ray player and must say, it's probably my tv, but I cannot really see is big difference between DVD and Blu-ray. Last movie I watched, let alone original movie.

May be based on an animated web series, but I still consider it original.

I watched The Substance via streaming alone on my birthday night because my wife and partner aren't into body horror. I loved it! It was really good. Definitely one of the better movies I've seen this year.

Collateral. What a fucking gem of a movie.

Do movies getting the Rifftrax treatment count? If so, then Birdemic.

The most recent would be The Greasy Strangler, on Blu-ray. Truly one of a kind, it has been stuck in my mind since.

Sounds utterly weird, but I'm intrigued

It is very weird and not for everyone, but it is definitely very original. It feels like a feature length Tim and Eric skit.

Wolfs, on the appropriate streaming service.

Also watched the Tom Hanks 2021 movie, Finch.

I saw Here at the movie theater.

It was excellent

I try not to sub to streaming services with an ad+sub tier like cable TV which narrows options over the past few years but also helps me avoid some of that stuff.

Criterion collection/channel is usually good for Indies and some lesser known quality films.

And physical media but that's mostly just for stuff I already know I like and would watch multiple times or for the commentary track because of how expensive that can get.

Theaters I'll go to for epic movies in IMAX or sometimes new horror movies or the occasional rifftrax thing they do where they broadcast live from a theater to a bunch of other theaters.
