OT: movies/tv shows thread

RRR is incredible! It's so off the wall bonkers at times, yet subtle and emotional at others.

The cinematography during Raju's introduction is one of the most impressive things I've seen in film. There is no reason to have the cameras at ground level showing him fight off an entire mob, and yet not only do they do it, it's really really well done.

Also the callback to the piggy back ride at the beginning and it having a payoff is amazing.

Everyone should watch this movie.

Dude! I’m glad you’ve seen it too! What a good f***ing movie. So well done. I think the lore of him being Rama is so f***ing cool which explains why he’s got such a good shot with his rifle. That shit got me. Especially the lights behind him as they see him with his bow and arrow. Such cool shots. The mob scene was really sick. I was like what on earth is this dude beating the f*** out of everyone!

Love the movie. I am so glad I pressed play by chance.

When I was in elementary school I thought his movies were cool. I remember when Only Deadly Ground came out and seeing the preview thinking this guy just makes the same dumb movie over and over. Then as I got older and tried to rewatch some of them for nostalgia it really hit home how bad his movies are. Not too mention the guy is a complete lunatic.

his movies are all the same. I assure you they’re all the same. Some fat ass 70 year old retired Navy seal who now literally has the body of a bloated seal lazily swinging his arms around doing Aikido. His voice whispering tone in every movie requires subtitles because he’s too lazy to speak Ioud. We watched 95 percent of all of his movies even the “newer” ones. All the movies have a strip club scene and usually a scene with him having to “lay” the most lazy pipe on a battered 35 year old woman while he sits there lazily wearing as many different variations of Asian clothing.

It’d be impossible for him to put less effort. We watch his movies for comedy at this point.

In retrospect, the bad Steven Seagal movies make a classic like Die Hard(the best Christmas movie, EVER) even better

I've just never been a huge action movie person. Hell, I'm not much of a movie person at all but I still love comedy movies and watch the same ones over and over. I have to watch Office Space and Idiocracy at least once a year. Those never get old.

My wife and I started a tradition when we moved in together where we watch every Christmas movie we like during the holidays. I'll have to add Die Hard to the list as I haven't seen it in years. Gremlins is another great Christmas movie.

My girlfriend and I do the same. After seeing it for the first time last week, Violent Night will be added to the rotation. I liked the references to Die Hard and Home Alone.

Last year, a friend recommended Mixed Nuts, which I had never seen before. I enjoyed it for the most part, but I see reviews are...um...mixed. Seems people think it's hilarious or dreadful. Great cast, though.

I'm going to add that one to the list! I dont' think I've seen it.

We had been doing something similar but it was a "no questions asked" movie night. We'd alternate each week and just watch whatever the person wanted.

Was really fun experiencing someone else's unfiltered taste in movies.

SS movies are comic relief, only he's not in on the joke.

I feel like mid-90s Seagal movies occupy that same space as stuff like The Room. Yeah, it's intended to be a serious film about a man's life crumbling apart... But it's also hilariously funny in almost every aspect.

RRR is one of the best movies that I've ever seen. Had the lucky pleasure of seeing it at the TCL IMAX a couple of years ago with both stars, the director, and the composer. The scene was incredible and it was unlike any other movie I've ever gone to. Everyone just caught up in the joy of that movie.

When I was in elementary school, Rikki Tikki Tavi was my action hero.

I have a feeling that movie sparked my fear of snakes........

I love the Chinese Theater. Saw Dune 2 and Gladiator 2 there.

Me and the GF plan on going there more often for both new and re-releases.
