The Fall of the House of Usher, man.
That was some gooooood shit.
Eight episodes of fantastic storytelling, excellent acting, and *chef's kiss* writing.
Netflix.
Now.
And though I don't think it needs it, here's a little incentive: Carla Gugino.
Carla. Effing. Gugino.

Watch To Watch Tonight: 2022 Movie Year Recap
Another movie year ended, all the awards possible big and small have now been bestowed, most have now been made available to all democratically and most have been watched! Even though there is still soooooo much from 2022 to catch up on or sadly unreleased or not made avail to the masses (like that underwater movie we won't mention...) But we all know a lifetime will never be enough to go through years' past watchlists, and we must accept it and move on to the next one as sadly we cannot live in a EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE multiverse where one would be able to do it all at once.
So in that spirit let's take one last look at what made us want to live to see it, and that we won't forget because, as the Best Movie Quote of Movie Year 2022 (from THE FABELMAN) says: 'Movies are dreams that you never forget...'
And we sure won't forget these from another interesting 12 months that brought us a truly varied array of films, and although we might not have many “perfect” ones reaching perfect notes (well, nothing reached 9/10 or ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐ for us this year,) it was satisfying, entertaining, and there was something for all the feels and emotions.
GREAT STORIES & GREAT FILMS
T’was a good time for wildly imaginative, to just wild and crazy stories from EEAAO to RRR to NOPE, APOLLO 10/2 or EO to even the quieter but less “bonkerz “ BANSHEES (what was it this year with fingers and donkey - definitely the “goat” of this year animal on film!) and the bold BABYLON or BARDO
Then we also have our favorite with the “Eat the rich “ and “Let’s Revolt” varieties that NEVER.DISAPPOINT (We live for that sh!t!) with of course TRIANGLE OF SADNESS (that gave us great pleasure with the “I am the captain now” twist), the hit THE MENU, intense ATHENA, weirdos like FLUX GOURMET, MARCEL THE SHELL, WHITE NOISE…
Anyway here are the movies that made our days/nights in 2022:

STUNNING VISUAL
Whether these movies captured the light perfectly, offered us EXTRAVAGANZA with amazing sets and wowing costumes/Hair/Makeup, had us at the edge of our seats due to the immersive action or poetic sequences, or left us emotional staring at gorgeously filmed vistas or simple shots of every day life….
There is no need to explain why EEAAO rules here!
Also about snub: ATHENA was the biggest quagmire of this season, snubbed left and right even in France of all places...
Sure the story is surfing on LES MISERABLE but it was quite different and the intensity and visual defo hit different too.
The techniques (highly recommend watching the BTS) is mind blowing as in Nolan-level of wow every other long takes!
3000 YEARS OF LONGING
AFTER YANG
ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT
ATHENA
BABYLON
*Yes the party scene but also all other incredible to comprehend scene so left us dreaming like THIS
BARDO
*Another maestro directing the hell out of another one, giving us possibly the most immersive oddities of the last season and surreal lyrical contemplations - one of our favorite thing in the whole wide world!
DECISION TO LEAVE
DON’T WORRY DARLING
EEAAO
*They really gave us everything imaginable and we might never see a movie so imaginative visually...
ELVIS
EO
GODLAND
MEN
*The beautiful imageries one will never forget!

STIRRING SOUND
It seems scores and OSTs were probably not as transcending as we would have liked in, but the Soundscape really outdid itself lately!
Not sure if it is the advantage of watching almost everything at home with better sound in headsets that really let you drown in the sound. (and the non-annoyance of Cinema popcorn noise and often not optimal sound...) But no complaint on top of composers and supervisors giving us the right tunes at the right time conveying the right vibes, praises are seriously due to all that enhances things for our auditory pleasure from mixers to foley to engineer to musicians...
ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT

BORA! DEBORAH
8.7/10
Korean
Romantic Comedy
Super light-hearted drama. This is the type of drama that is very easy to watch and if youre feeling down or heavy, it can help you feel better. The plot is not new but now executed like other cliché series. The different troopes give you views in each stages of relationship. My fave is about the marriage life of Lee Yoo-jeong and Yang Jin-woo.
I learned a lot about romantic aspects in this series. There's always a 2 sides of the coin, people in a relationship doesn't share everything with each other. The other half tends to keep something to their partner thinking it is for the betterment. Yet, sometimes it leads to unnecessary miscommunication. It made me realize that being open and letting them know that your are open to discuss any problems without judging them first will be a game changer.
Another one is giving extra time, gifts, and affection is very important. Even just a single gesture is actually enough and letting them know you love them from time to time matters, and that applies to both parties, in a boat you need to paddle on both sides to keep balance.
This series made me realize that I'm always very cautious with my heart all my life that it made me cry during the ending coz want to fall in love carelessly and ridiculously. I realize that wanted to do cringey things too. That I regretted letting few people passed in my life without giving them a chance and up until now my coward when it comes to my true feelings. I need to be honest with myself someday 😔💨

Seigneur des Anneaux (la trilogie)
"Le Seigneur des anneaux est une trilogie cinématographique américano-néo-zélandaise de fantasy réalisée par Peter Jackson et fondée sur le roman du même nom en trois volumes de J. R. R. Tolkien. Les films composant cette trilogie sont La Communauté de l'anneau, Les Deux Tours et Le Retour du roi."
Le plaisir de faire découvrir cette trilogie back à back à son fils!
Quelques faits amusants sur la tournage...
Les films ont nécessité plus de 20,000 figurants.
Si vous avez l'oeil, vous pouvez apercevoir Peter Jackson en figurant dans chaque film.
Elijah Wood (Frodon) et Ian McKellen (Gandalf) n'ont en réalité jamais tourné une scène ensemble ou presque, du fait de la difficulté de rendre la différence de taille des deux personnages à l'écran.
Le Retour du Roi détient le record du plus grand nombre de tués à l'écran, soit 836 personnes.
Quand il était plus jeune Christopher Lee a eu la chance de rencontrer Tolkien dans un pub faisant de lui, le seul membre du tournage à l'avoir rencontré.
Le rôle d'Aragorn avait été proposé à Nicolas Cage.
Si les trois épisodes ont connu des sorties différées, le tournage a pourtant eu lieu en simultané. Une performance alors jamais réalisée.
🔥 Dévoré !

GUIDELINES FOR
1: No doxxing, no bullying, no death threats. Such cowardly acts are UNBEFITTING OF THE SKELETON WAR
2: If a wizard casts a spell you must follow it. If they cast “turn undead” you must flee, unless you’re a heckin big boi. If a wizard casts “nuclear fire blast” then you’re dead. If a wizard casts the penis shrinking spell then YOU CAN LAUGH IN THEIR FACE BECAUSE SKELETONS DONT HAVE PENISES
3: If you blaze skeleton war post, link back to this original post with guidelines to OFFICIALLY DRAFT MORE SOULS INTO THE SKELETON WAR
why should I support the skeleton war?
Wouldn’t you rather see tumblr community nonsense instead of corporate brand pandering? Tumblr is one of the last true remnants of the old internet before everything became soulless algorithmic husks. Yeah its cringe sometimes, but its our cringe.
Hosting a social media website is not profitable, so thats why dev teams turn to advertisers, because our information and attention becomes their only product they can sell. If the community can invest in tumblr through blazed posts then we can get more frog elections and crabs and less fake friendly corporate bs.
its after halloween, isnt it a bit late for the sk-
THE SKELETON WAR IS UNBOUND BY YOUR MEAGER MORTAL REVELRIES
HOW DO I PARTICIPATE (AND NOT PARTICIPATE?)

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Movie Review
Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Movie Review ( Photo Credit – Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Poster)
What’s Good: The visual jump in the graphics is so good for 2 reasons – first, makers don’t go all gaga with the 3D model to make it look too advanced hence, second, it helps them to retain the much-loved charm/innocence of the show
What’s Bad: You’ll watch it and forget about it immediately, just like a pretty okay episode of the series
Loo Break: It’s just 100 minutes, you won’t be tempted!
Watch or Not?: If you’re a Dragon Ball fan, I’m sure you already have booked the tickets but if you’re not a fan, there’s no great reason to recommend you this
Available On: Theatrical Release
Runtime: 100 Minutes
The Last Word
All said and done, is this a treat for Dragon Ball fans? Of course yes. But, is it any better than the previous 20 treats? Yes, and no. Yes, because of the visual shift, and humour and no because it stays short in retaining an important element of the show – emotion
