very first motion picture footage ever filmed.
roundhay garden scene 1888.

[RAGER]

Nah. The earliest was probably a sex tape. This is the second earliest.

[renfield]

we did psychedelic drugs and saw AVATAR 2 in the imax

dumb movie but I fuckin loved it. nobody does it like Cameron

[sleestak]

The first one was super fucking lame too butsurely would be cool on drugs.   Is this new one 3d glasses too?

[renfield]

3D glasses, high frame rate so you can efffortlessly parse the 3D effect. i was THERE man, i was on pandora

The Pale Blue Eye wasn't terrible.

[sleestak]

The Pale Blue Eye wasn't terrible.

Plus it features several of my favorite fishing spots!   For serious.   

Haven't watched the movie yet but plan to.

[RAGER]

No shit?  That big lake? 

[sleestak]

Yeah for real.  The lake is Lake Arthur and Slippery Rock Creek is shown at McConnells Mill State Park.   My two favorite fishing spots and quite possibly my two favorite places on earth.

[RAGER]

McConnells Mill State Park Looks beautiful.

Reminds me of this here about a half hour away.

Finally!  A movie that Netflix has, the first hit I got in the last 20 searches.
Just started the movie. Interesting camera. Eeeghads it's a period piece. Hey, not a spoiler, the opening pays heavy tribute to The Shining. Lovely cinematography. I love checking out lighting and this one is gorgeous so far.

outstanding, the foley credits on this led me to The Battle of Buster Scruggs. Coen Bros. and NF has it. Queued.

[sleestak]

Been meaning to watch buster on Netflix.   Love the coen bros stuff but don't make a lot of time for movies.   I did watch "a serious man" last week when I was sick and I thought it was phenomenal.   This being the second time I've watched it and I was not all that moved the first go round. 

[Muffin Man]

glad you're better! I want to re-watch A Serious Man.

eeeghads Buster is a period piece too (if that's what these are really called - 1800's type stuff). There is a really neat surprise on one of the stories - that one a must re-watch for me. Speaking of rivers, this one has it, and it's great!

ps. it takes time to get to the scenes for surprise. Lemme know if you want the fast forward to spot

[Pissy]

Buster I recall a few stories were good, a few not.  The first was good.  The one with Liam not so much.  I might rewatch tonight.  I liked the one with Tom Waits. 

[Muffin Man]

That's the one! The mining one. I've never seen Tom do bad acting. What a cat. Well written too, I wonder if he had a hand in it (the script)?

Stumbled on The Gray Man. Gonna see how far I get but it's got the sci-fi-ish thing going that I dig and the cast is legit. I'm looking for a new TV, a whopper of a 55" (suit to fit) but Sony I think, so cinema quality. I need the color quality and tight. Expecting to calibrate. The thing with the LG is they have a built in thing that bursts for calibrating. The Sony, no. LG $1500 Sony $2400. I donl twant to buy a new TV every year, not even 5. Tough business.

ehagads The Gray Man just went all CGI Matrix. Kinda cool. Elements of Blade Runner cinematography-wise. Neato.  edit. a little jerky with the script and the budget just fell off, from expensive camera to cheap camera, or something. Hang on, I'm going in!

/bailed on The Gray Man. maybe later

Doc about Elliott Smith

[Pissy]

Which streaming platform app subscription service?

[RAGER]

Watched it on Prime.

[Muffin Man]

that's an old one isn't it? I saw the old one ca.2016, I can't really watch that stuff anyway, what a spiral. Ah, hell no. Such a loss. And all wrong. Fuck that. /sorry ;(

[Dylan Thomas]

Watched The Woman King the other night.  Very enjoyable, though quite violent.

[whoshotthefrog]

[Pissy]

I watched the Elliot Smith doc.  Pretty sad.  I didn't know how much he bounced around from Portland to LA to New York.  I came away from it thinking about how many people were "helping" him succeed the way so many in show business do.

Yeah....really saddening for sure.  He also was in my neck of the woods for a bit, up at Hampshire College in Amherst.

if you are like me (I hope not), and have little connection left with your wife, and it's rare you find a movie you both can enjoy, I just watched this tear jerker last night called "Palmer" on Apple TV. Justin Timberlake is very good, playing an ex felon that returns home from jail, and ends up protecting a young boy/neighbor from a drug addict mother in a real feel good ending movie that is somewhat unexpected. def good watch. It totally reminded me of the movie "12 and Holding" with Jeremy Renner, which was also fantastic sleeper.
