MOVIE time again. How is this year passing so fast? This is bullshit, i barely wasted this year at all. Anyways...


Voting open for the 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd, & 29th. Taking top voted nominates (depending on piracy success) for two movies each Friday. Maybe a third if it fits the theme or is really good/bad.

Pre-hosted nominations get extra weight becuase its less work. Dubs preferred over subs because Cytube is indignent about playing subtitle files without heavy cajoling. If it’s currently in theaters or on a streaming service its usually an pain in the ass to find a good torrent in time, but ill look for it anyways because fuck copyright.

Shout out to the Cytube crew, our many haters & losers, and to viewers like YOU.

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 owl-wink . 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!

[-] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

Yes I second this, more owls!

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

[-] iie@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

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

[-] Zoift@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

We should redo Akira every year.

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.

[-] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Saw it recently, it's excellent. Love me some Wong Kar-wai.

[-] HarryLime@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] KurtVonnegut@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

Also loosely inspired by a true story.

WHO BARKS? IS IT THE CHAIN CHOMPS OF THE KING KOOPA? OR IS IT THE BARKING OF THE VILLAGE GOOMBAS?

[-] wombat@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago
[-] asa_red_heathen@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Well we should do new movies first, but we've done a bunch of reruns recently so if trends continue I want to watch the Northman again

[-] ElGosso@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

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

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.

[-] HarryLime@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] Walk_On@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

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

[-] HarryLime@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] Walk_On@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

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.

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

That's more a Sunday slop vibe, but hell yeah, any suggestions in particular?
