I’ve only seen chapter 2 out of that list. I want to see the lighthouse but it’s not playing at my local regal. Missed Us. No desire to see Midsommar. Scary stories is still playing but I haven’t gotten around to it. Never even heard of Ready or Not.
@RiotDemon Ready or Not was a game of hide and seek to the death. It was fun. Scary Stories was pretty good too. They’re worth seeing for free if you get the chance.
I just went to see The Current War. It was really interesting.
@RiotDemon It stars Benedict Cumberbach and that guy from The Shape of Water. It’s based on fact but shows like a drama. If you don’t know the ending it’s pretty exciting. But you probably know the ending. It’s still fascinating.
dawg us was amazing and jordan peele is a dope director, but the lighthouse was a beautiful achievement of cinema and defoe and pattinson brought their damn a games
@chubbypapaya I really liked Get Out but I thought us lost it’s way halfway through and got totally nonsensical. So the government built a bunker that house experimental clones BELOW sea level, with access from a beach fun house… nah dude
@sammydog01 it still hasn’t opened at mine. The guy at the theatre says it updates every Tuesday. I can only hope this Tuesday it shows up. They had the poster in the lobby, so I’m hopeful.
@RiotDemon I went to see The Lighthouse. It was… I have no idea what it was. What the fuck was it? I’ll go see if Wikipedia has a page on it yet. I wish I had gone to see The Addams Family instead. Or pretty much anything else playing.
@sammydog01 oh no. I was afraid of that. I think the dude that did The VVitch directed it. That was weird too.
I really want to see Pattinson, so I’ll still see it if it shows up at my regal. I won’t be driving the 30 minutes to the other theatre that’s showing it.
Cross-posting from a different deal-a-day website forum:
I watched a new Netflix show this weekend called, ‘Daybreak,’ and I’m a fan! It is a humorous take on the apocalypse style show. It’s a mix of Z Nation, Zombieland and for the young folks, Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide. The cast revolves around high school kids and Matthew Broderick lol.
Show: Daybreak
Site: Netflix
Why you should watch: If you like fun, apocalypse style shows, Daybreak is for you. Closer on the spectrum to Z Nation than the Walking Dead and doesn’t take itself too seriously. Has fun characters and a crazy plot, but it hooked me in episode 1.
Personal Rating: 8/10 BOC’s
Thanks @manlapig! It’s been pretty good for a lark.
EDIT: All you tolerant haters out there will love the bad guy is named “Baron Triumph”
I went to see Countdown today. It was way in the back theater and I was the only one there.
A half hour in the screen went dark. Everything was dark. So, so dark. And I was alone. So, so alone.
So I found my way to the door and the lights were on in the hall. Then they started to go out. One at a time. NOOOOOO!
I got to the lobby and the concession people were there along with the manager who was running around in circles. The power was out in the whole shopping center. I got a return ticket which I can use for my son to see Zombieland. Score! Plus I get a free popcorn as a promotion for buying a ticket to Countdown. And if I go see another crappy movie, I don’t remember which one, I get a free copy of the movie so I can watch the ending at home.
@RiotDemon it was OK- I may go back tonight to see the end. Movies in the back theater often go away. And, second, I was standing in the lobby when someone came out the other corridor with their phone light on when I realized I was stupid.

@sammydog01 interesting like a documentary?

@sammydog01 I’ve been a horrible movie goer lately. There’s so many things I want to watch but not enough time.
Things I need to watch first:
Joker
Gemini Man
Addams Family
Zombieland 2
I’ll going to watch joker today. Maybe I’ll make it a double feature with something else.
@RiotDemon Gemini Man was OK. Zombie land and the Addams Family are both on my list.
@sammydog01 just crossed off joker. I’m either going to watch another movie late tonight or sometime tomorrow. I gotta catch up.
Terminator and Doctor Sleep both come out in a couple of weeks.
Toy Story 4.
Well, Us is the only one I’ve seen. So…that
Politics on the nightly news. Because it’s real life.
I don’t know any!
I generally don’t watch them. Sorry.
I am too scared to go to scary movies
Uh, none.
They just don’t seem very funny.
None.
The ongoing catastrophe that is our flailing existence.
The news. Every day it gets scarier.
@dhelmick56 came here to say that
/giphy same
Has anyone seen ready or not? I wanted to see it but never did, just wondered if it was any good?
@star2236 I enjoyed it. It doesn’t take itself too seriously.
dawg us was amazing and jordan peele is a dope director, but the lighthouse was a beautiful achievement of cinema and defoe and pattinson brought their damn a games
@chubbypapaya The Lighthouse isn’t playing here yet. I hope it comes.
@chubbypapaya @sammydog01 I just asked at my local regal because they have a sign saying coming soon. They don’t have a date yet.
@chubbypapaya I really liked Get Out but I thought us lost it’s way halfway through and got totally nonsensical. So the government built a bunker that house experimental clones BELOW sea level, with access from a beach fun house… nah dude
@chubbypapaya @RiotDemon The Lighthouse just opened at my theater!
@sammydog01 it still hasn’t opened at mine. The guy at the theatre says it updates every Tuesday. I can only hope this Tuesday it shows up. They had the poster in the lobby, so I’m hopeful.

@RiotDemon I’m pretty sure The Witch had less masturbation in it. Let me know how you like it?
@sammydog01 damnit. Still not showing at my theatre!
/giphy laughs
Dora the explorer. The movie…
@GaviD ^ this
Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals - I’m still sick to my stomach…
The shit show at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
@ThatsHeadly you sure that’s not 1st St & E Capitol St NE?
@ybmuG positive.
Fox News
The only “horror” movie I’ve watched this year is The Addams Family. Yes, it was actually classified as horror.
@msklzannie Was it good? Or am I better off staying home and watching reruns?
@sammydog01 It was funny and cute. I liked it wellenough. (I know, weird calling it cute when it’s labeled horror, but it only has a PG ratimg.)

@sammydog01 Scary!
@mediocrebot That’s not scary, it’s just gross.
MEATLOAF!
@sammydog01 so one, how was the first 30 minutes of the movie? And two, does your phone not have a flashlight?
@RiotDemon it was OK- I may go back tonight to see the end. Movies in the back theater often go away. And, second, I was standing in the lobby when someone came out the other corridor with their phone light on when I realized I was stupid.
@sammydog01
/giphy smirk
@RiotDemon I just watched the rest of the movie- it was pretty good!
