Hoot- 2006 a iconic kids movie where a trio of kids stand up to land developers through sabotage, and geting the community involved, to protect local Florida dirt owls . yes your very own @Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net stars in this movie. I loved this movie as a kid. fun fact these owls almost went extinct in florida but volunteers and environmentalist saved them!

Godzilla (1954) - It's Godzilla. Let's watch it. The original, not the one with Raymond Burr. It has Godzilla in it.

Django (1966) - considered one of the best Spaghetti Westerns ever made.

Akira, I missed it last year (or two years ago? idk)

Happy Together (1997) - Wong Kar-wai's stylish saga of a couple who make a not-so-romantic getaway to Argentina. Extremely well-regarded, and ranked #216 on Letterboxd's Top 250.

Rope (1948) - Classic Alfred Hitchcock movie about heterosexuality and straight people. Hitchcock's most hetero movie and one of the not-gayest movies ever made. Also it's made to look like it was all done in one take, which is pretty cool. Also it's Hitchcock's first color film, and it uses color really well.

The Northman

The Sting (1973) - Classic heist film, very fun movie

Ran by Akira Kurosawa

Kagemusha (1980, by Kurosawa) - A petty thief with an utter resemblance to a samurai warlord is hired as the lord's double. When the warlord later dies the thief is forced to take up arms in his place.

The Babadook (2014) - Well-regarded spooky movie about a child’s bogeyman who starts to haunt the mom, too.

Last Night in Soho (2021) -- Anya Taylor-Joy goes back in time to 1960s New York and the timeline starts going out of whack. From Edgar Wright, director of Shaun of the Dead:

Yes, Madam! (1985) - Michelle Yeoh's first big movie, where she teams up with Cynthia Rothrock to do cool as hell action scenes and wear amazing 80s outfits. Also has Tsui Hark doing physical comedy in a crazy apartment. Incredibly fun movie.

Collateral (2004) - A Michael Mann film starring Jamie Foxx and Tom Cruise. They're really good at their jobs. Tom Cruise has white hair and says "Yo homie" at one point.

New Jack City (1991) - I don't know what this movie is or what it's about but it's got Wesley Snipes and Ice T and it looks pretty sick so let's watch it. I think it's the source of that meme with Wesley Snipes crying with that gun.

Frankenstein (1931) - another essential Universal Monster film that actually came out the same year as Dracula.

The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976) - Nicolas Roeg's other classic 70s movie, about David Bowie as a literal alien who falls to Earth and learns life there.

An Autumn Afternoon (1962) - Yasujiro Ozu's last movie. It's really good.

Wheels on Meals (1984) - Jackie Chan

Thunderheart (1992) - Val Kilmer is an FBI agent sent to a South Dakota reservation, because he's part Sioux, to track down a Leonard Peltier stand in and investigate a murder. Graham Greene shows up and they learn more about the governments role.

Floating Weeds (1959) - A beautiful movie directed by Yasujiro Ozu. Roger Ebert's favorite movie.

The Devils (1971) - One of the essential horror films of the 1970s. Currently ranked #240 on Letterboxd's Top 250 films of all time:

Frances Ha (2012) - Greta Gerwig (director of Barbie) stars as an aspiring dancer who finds herself on the ass-end of showbiz.

Rio Bravo (1959) - One of John Carpenter’s favorite films, this Howard Hawks classic is a pinnacle of the Western genre.

King of New York (1990) - Abel Ferrara directed this movie with Christopher Walken, Lawrence Fishburne, David Caruso, Wesley Snipes, Steve Buscemi and a lot of other great actors. Very fun and cool movie.

To Live and Die In LA (1985) - Since William Friedkin passed away last month, we should watch one of his movies. It’s about 2 secret service agents going after a counterfeiter.

Tromeo & Juliet

Mechanical Violator Hakaider (1995) - A violent and stylish cult Tokusatsu movie.

Here's a clip

About Time (2013) - A guy gains the ability to travel through time and tries to get a girlfriend. Highly-acclaimed by critics, excellent Letterboxd rating.

wondering if I should suggest US military prop movies just so we can bash it as we watch

Onibaba (1964) or the seventh seal (1957)

I bet ya'll have already done Reds (1981), right? I still need to watch it.
