    My most unrecognized reference is Laurence Fishburne yelling "There it is!" in Searching for Bobby Fischer.

    Umm, guys....For a movie review thread; this broke off into some weird food tangents. Par for the course, I know.

    This is a movie night WDT, not the official movie review thread, so pretty well anything goes.

    I haven't watched a movie, but I did watch the first episode of Ms. Marvel in the gym, and got to about 8 minutes before turning that the fuck off. I consider that an accomplishment in the quest for equality.

    I then got the South Park Streaming Wars episode up, and holy shit that was on point.

    So, I've been gearing up to see Crimes of the Future and realized I've only seen a few Cronenberg movies. So, I spent the weekend binging some more. I think I had previously only watched Scanners, The Fly, and A History of Violence.

    This past weekend I added:

    The Dead Zone - Pretty solid. I think I had watched long chunks of it, but never really sat down and watched from start to finish. I didn't realize Herbert Lom was in it, so that was a nice surprise.

    Videodrome - Same as The Dead Zone. I had watched long chunks and had watched the really graphic parts, but this was the first time I sat down and watched it in one viewing. Still pretty good though. S&M Debbie Harry is always a plus.

    Shivers - I had a harder time getting into this one. I can definitely get why it's a classic and so influential, but it didn't hook me in as much as his other films. It's one of his first, so I'm sure I'm being too hard on it. I may give it a rewatch sometime.

    The Brood - This might be my favorite of the ones I watched this weekend. Maybe tied with The Dead Zone. Really interesting story, and honestly, while it doesn't have a ton of body horror throughout, the stuff it does have........Yeeeeeeeah. Wow. That one's gonna stay with me a while. Plus Oliver Reed. As a friend of mine once said he could easily just listen to Oliver Reed read the phone book and be entertained. I don't disagree with that.

    Dead Ringers and Crash are two I've had on my list for a while, so I may try to check those out too. And I'm gonna rewatch Scanners since that's probably my favorite of his films.

    I did round things out with some Letterkenny, just to keep things light and get a well rounded Canadian experience.

    I really disliked A History of Violence. It was just too nonsensical.

    I loved it totally and completely. But my celebrity crush is Viggo Mortensen so it could have been an hour of him shopping at Walmart and I would have been fine with it.

    Dead Ringers and Crash are definitely worth the watch.
    They aren't horror, but definitely not movies you'd want to watch with your parrnts.

    Another one you should check out is Existenz.
    It's about a trippy VR game.

    I absolutely loved that movie. One of my faves.

    And on the topic of movies: as if the DCU couldn’t get any more disjointed or fucked—- Ezra Miller, holy shit. You wrote TJ Miller a clinic on how to fuck up for no reason.

    The last thing I read about Ezra Miller was something about drugging and grooming a Native American girl. Was there another weird thing since then?

    Ezra Miller is less of a person and more of a sentient crime spree that haunts Hawaii at this point.

    Can’t wait to see how that big DCU soft-reboot goes with The Flash when the star is turning into a manic lunatic. Also, he looks like if Michael Jackson dressed up as Steven Tyler.
