I watched Parasite the other night. Very entertaining. Having to read can take you away from some of the visuals. The twist at the end was pretty sweet.

Parasite was awesome. Watched it the week before the Academy Awards and then just again the other night. Only my 3rd favorite film of the year, but still easily makes the top-10 of the decade. This year ruled for film.

It’s very difficult to explain. But very high level, a poor Korean family of 4 gets an opportunity to work with a wealthy Korean family of 4. The poor family are “street smart” the wealthy family are not.

Loved The King.
Parasite easily best I've seen this year.
Uncut Gems was the next. I know not for everyone but I liked it a lot.
I watched The Talented Mr. Ripley the other day. I've never seen it...wayy late to the party.

I just watched a preview of The King. Looks great. I'll try to watch it this weekend.

Also if you liked Uncut Gems. Good Time is also great, same directors. Similar style, not as intense but a grimy flick.

That’s how I felt too. Parasite easily best movie of the year, but the king was fucking awesome. I haven’t seen uncut gems yet, but I’ll watch soon.

There are some violent scenes, but only a few.

You’re asking too many questions! Just give it a watch.

Huh, might have to watch Parasite from the commentary. Subtitles aren't a big thing for me, as I have a decent number of foreign-language movies. Mainly horror and gangster, so suspense isn't that far off genre-wise.

Not a movie, but I'll be watching The Phantom of the Opera on Andrew Lloyd Webber's YouTube channel today.

I’d say yes, it’s not any worse than American R-rated. Depends on what you let him watch now, I guess. There is one sex scene that could be a bit awkward. Can’t fast forward though, based on the rest of what is happening in the scene.
