Ron’s Gone Wrong (2021) just finished on tv as I scrolled past this post, parts feel directly ripped off from Big Hero 6, not bad, but nothing too amazing.
Also watched Baby Done (2020) with Rose Matafeo who I love, which was fun if a little heteronormative. Got a great gif out of it though, thanks for the reminder:

I also started watching The Ghost Goes West (1935) earlier today but nodded off halfway through, not sure I’m missing much in terms of plot, but I might try and watch the whole thing through if I get the chance, just to see how Florida was portrayed lol
And then… Then there was Triangle of Sadness (2022) - private yacht going liberal Hollywood sniffing its own farts pretending to be at the vanguard of progressive thinking, or in the immortally centrist words of its creator: “I am equally as hard on the poor as I am on the rich”, which tells you everything you need to know really. Much like current events- there are brief and fleeting moments where the true villain/s get a minor sampling of what they deserve, but ultimately they still come out on top, and only after the victim is portrayed as the real villain (because the creators, and the privileged in general, can’t imagine another way, only the tables being directly turned, and their victims treating them the way they treat their victims), before the status quo, which was never under any real threat, is restored and liberalism wins once again lmao. The fact that it’s being lauded as some ingenious political satire is deeply depressing.
E: I also watched films like Junior and Sister act, and some of the other 90’s classics that are regularly on tv, but I’m sure no one needs introducing to them, and I also feel like I’m missing some other lesser known films, but my brain is a bit of a sieve lol (E3: to prove my point: I’d completely forgotten I’d watched Everything Everywhere All at Once, and definitely not because it was forgettable lol)
E2: also the latest Jurassic Park sequel is on tonight against fuck all else, so I’ll be watching that, followed by Ferris Bueller’s Day Off lol
