Watch 3 billboards again. Phantom Thread will go down as a classic character study so that's a must see too.

I knew you would say that! I'll see it again if I find it in a bargain bin in 2020.

I might watch that one since It's Paul Thomas Anderson and Day-Lewis (which I just found out by Googling. Wasn't actually aware it was by Anderson). While I didn't like There Will Be Blood, I really liked Inherent Vice and The Master.

It legit just sounds like you watched it in a bad mood tbh.

You disgust me. TWBB is the greatest film ever made. Phantom Thread is closer to The Master though, but also very different for PTA.

Honestly, that's always a possibility, isn't it? I've often wondered whether it was me or the movie - whenever I've watched a movie that I expected to like but just didn't really feel into.

I just got bored with There Will Be Blood. That's really all I can remember about it.

Did you like Inherent Vice?

I thought that 3 Billboards was really overhyped as well, but the more that I meditated on it and what it was trying to accomplish, the more I grew to love it.

Chula Vista

I also didn't like it at all. DDL trying to ape John Huston's drawl the whole movie was the least of the issues I had with it.

Ja ja ja I know how your basic ass would've preferred the film to unfold



2001 sucks because HAL doesn't go beep beep boop boop.

I don't remember my own reaction to that, but faked accents are risky business for any serious movie.

And DDL handles it incredibly naturally, but he's no John Wayne. Now that's an actor.
