Anomalisa - Charlie Kaufman's newest film that got some oscar buzz. I've been a big fan of his work (Adaptation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Being John Malcovich) but this was a stinker. Only reason I finished it was becase I paid to rent it on iTunes. Skipable.

The animation was sort of cool. 3.5/10

I'm guessing this is different than The Room, then, because I thought that when I first saw the title and lol'd.

I went into it with no expectations, only watched it because it was the only thing available at the time.

I also enjoyed it a lot. I'd give it about an 8.

Same here. Bought it for the gf because she loves Bradley Cooper. Turned out to be one of the better movies I've seen recently.

I was thinking about going tomorrow, but I don't have tickets yet so I probably can't...

I skipped watching this because of the bad rotten Tomato reviews, but it interested me. I'll have to give it a shot now.

I haven't watched anything new lately, but I did talk my best friend into watching all the Rocky movies before she watches Creed. She has been boycotting them her entire life, but I made her feel like an idiot for wanting to watch the new one without seeing them first. Hoping to get 3 and 4 in this weekend.

Never watch movies but actually watched 2 last weekend.

The Wolf of Wall Street - 6.5/10.
Thought the movie was decent, but Margot Robbie, wow.

Scarface - 7/10.
Saw it was on Netflix and never seen it so wanted to check it out. Knew the big quotes so was cool to actually see them used in the movie.

Civil War was fan-f'n-tastic.

I had super high expectations for civil war. I'm not sure in retrospect that it had any chance of meeting them. I thought it was OK but not the greatest. I didn't expect it to be a remake of the comic book but there was just something missing for me.

I agree. Best Marvel flick so far. Black Panther and Winter Soldier were badass.

Really enjoyed Civil War. I liked Winter Soldier better but this was a great movie.

I watched The Hunt earlier today. That movie is so fucked up. Makes me never want to talk to kids again.

Good movie though 8/10
