I want those Gawain + Knight puppets!!

The marketed image of this movie is Dev Patel Holding A Big Ol Axe — but I don't think he even uses it once 😩

It's just Gawain bein a Big Ol Failure huh

The Green Knight definitely a "show me strange beautiful imagery" film more than a "tell me a captivating story" film, and it's very good at that. It just would never work in written form. (That's A Joke)

wife (didn't watch): "so did he get his head cut off"

"ambiguous"

"hmm."

I don't expect any A24 Arthurian tale to be a closed text of straightforward medieval action — yet I expected a little bit of straightforward medieval action

still stewing on this one

in my humble imo

Chip & Dale > Tom & Jerry > Clifford > Space Jam 2

the Sonic movie (which I had rock bottom expectations for) is ~on par with Chip & Dale, which is ironic if you've seen both

remember Detective Pikachu, that's probably the "best" "movie" of all these but not as funny as it coulda shoulda been

2022 is the year of movies being Very Meta about themselves being reboots (this, Scream 5, Matrix 4, what else)

I'm internally debating whether "pretty good" was too much praise (it's a pop culture nostalgia heavy, 3D animated, basic mystery movie 😬) or not enough (it's by Lonely Island and had some clever parts and made me & 4YO laugh, so, successful comedy?)

This is where I split the thread into Chip & Dale and Green Knight branches

im going in ✌️

double feature with Green Knight now?? 💀

we ended up watching the new Chip & Dale movie tonight 🤷‍♂️ and it was pretty good 🤷‍♂️

Give! Me! Choice paralysis!!

the year is 2053. I finally have an electric lawnmower (a cybernetic android that pushes around my gas lawnmower)
