Throne of Blood (1957) - Macbeth in feudal Japan. It's glorious, between the extensive use of fog and black and white photography it felt very dreamlike.

Oxy-morons (2010) - some based on a true story flick about a small time crime family imploding. Not particularly memorable. Beast (2022) - Idris Elba fights a cgi lion and bonds with his daughters.

Pschy - Dual Spires It was ok, but I doubt I'll watch more of the series. A lot of the jokes didn't land and the main character annoyed the **** out of me.

I do have Prime. Doctor Octopus will have to wait.

I've never seen a single episode of Psych, so now that you mention it....there's Three Pines, which is apparently Canadian Twin Peaks starring Doctor Octopus. I should give that a shot.

It'd need to be cancelled after one season to qualify for that, as a miniseries it doesn't count. I haven't watched many series lately and I have to say most of what is there looks unappealing to me. Maybe I'll finally start Derry Girls or just cut through my backlog of movies on my watchlist.

We should replace every episode of nutrek with Peter Watkins' 6 hour film La Commune (Paris, 1871).

I wasn't joking. Skynet is going to be an actual net in the sky. How do you hold the net up? Balloons.

That image is what popped right into my head when I saw the title and looked at the area.

I was expecting a bit more tbh, oh this is a sound track? Given the harp, butterflies, and furniture this looks like a place for Desna, Shelyn, and Sarenrae to hang out. Fitting Valentine's Day drop considering the lore around those three.

Change your name.

It seems our taste in (nick)names is as distant as our taste in movies.

I recommend not naming your child Mildred or Gertrude.

Something everyone should do once in a while. I think it's a combination of that and the fact that people tend to not finish games. Pathetic Quaist is a Sorcerer who ends up doing Dragon Shape 3 and that's not as hard as a powerful monster who does the monk dip/vivisectionist combo on top.

Double down.

My condolences, that game sucked. Congratulations! Buenaventura and Gráinne are two good names.

Well now that you mention it.....I honestly can not recall a Kevin Costner performance. At least Tom Cruise has Eyes Wide Shut and Interview with the Vampire to his credit.

It seems you broke the forum by doing so, unless you're also @LadyCrimson. Of the first DLC wave, the side story is interesting, the roguelike mode is either a build tester or a megadungeon for the main game, and Inevitable Excess is bad. I'd go for it if it's cheaper than buying the first two.

Night Visitor (1989) This movie feels like a fever dream simulacrum of several 80's horror movies, something that seems a product of your memory amalgamating several films together. A satanic killer, that has a dayjob as a high school teacher, who exclusively murders prostitutes terrorizes a city/suburb with the help of his crazy and/or dumb brother. The only ones that can stop him are a high school couple and an alcoholic ex-cop. There's a single mom, an **** friend, the sexy neighbor, and many other tropes that have been in so many of these films. Night Visitor fails to do anything interesting with them. It certainly didn't help that the killers, the terrifying satanic killer and his kRaZy brother, are out of shape middle aged men that never exude anything threatening and would probably hurt themselves chasing after someone. But even if they were threatening, the film would be forgettable at best. Strongly do not recommend. Mulholland Drive (2001) I decided to watch this again because the above movie pissed me off and because talking with @Bartimaeus made me want to see it. A very good decision. It's a beautiful confusing mess, like walking through several dreams that somehow cohese just enough to see how they are connected. The sound and cinematography work in tamdem to reinforce this feeling, the low rumblings combine with handheld camera movement to make you feel just a bit uneasy even in ordinary scenes, like the voyeurism is more personal somehow. And hell no baby jesus god damn, Naomi Watts is incredible. The next Neil Breen film will be the great unifier. I can't remember any of the Indiana Jones movies. I've seen them, but it's been so long my memory fails to recall any particulars beyond the iconic scenes.

Well a 10% chance you'll love it with a 20% chance you'll hate it are better odds than normal for you.

There's still the issue of the NSA and whether time exists or is actually linear though. If I had to recommend a Lynch film to you I would recommend either The Elephant Man or The Straight Story, because both start with "The" and you have liked movies that start with "The" before. Both are also notably more straight forward than most of his work and feature characters you may have an easier time relating to or sympathizing with than his other films. Wild at Heart is a very dark horse, I think it's an easier watch than Blue Velvet but.... very dark horse. There's a showing of it tonight at the Alamo I wanted to catch but I don't think I will be able to make it. You can chalk it up to being me wanting to see the movie.

That's a tall order. What if you're watching The Straight Story with your nieces and you find a tinge it enjoyment? Are you going to rush out if the room, log on to forums.obsidian.net and dm me before they catch on? What if your nieces deduce you enjoyed the film before I check the forums? What if the NSA reads the message before I do? What if time doesn't really exist so first is meaningless? A lot of potential hurdles are there.

The Elephant Man (1980) The first David Lynch film I saw was Lost Highway. It was before I really followed directors and hadn't seen much besides tentpole stuff at theaters, b-movies rented for cheap from blockbuster, or stuff that was on tv. My memory is a bit fuzzy and I quite honestly don't remember much from my teenage years (thank god) so I can't place when I saw it...... but I think it was either on IFC or the Sundance channel. I'm not sure if I recorded it by mistake or by intention, but whatever the case it made a huge impression and did somewhat change my views on movies. I really want to see it again but the only legal way to watch it would be to get a bluray for $40 which I'd need a player for to boot. Maybe soon. Anyways The Elephant Man is probably the furthest Lynch film of from Lost Highway, perhaps only beaten in that regard by the Disney film The Straight Story. Aside from a handful of dream sequences, the movie is entirely straightforward and almost feels like it could fit in with some of the old Hollywood black and white movies. Like Eraserhead, the sound is a constant and almost unnoticed companion that fills you with unease and really helps to elevate the film. I'll admit that the ending brought tears to my eyes, made all the more potent by the heavy foreshadowing that makes it seem like a slow moving crash. Beautiful film.

Compared to the other sekrit endings, the Midnight Isles one is very easy to get, at least as part of the main game. So much so I really have a hard time calling it a secret ending.
