Enjoyed, The Last Battle, directed by Luc Besson and starring Jean Reno today. Old B&W art-house flick. Post apolcalypse flick. No dialigue.

Hey @JuicyBunny, what is the last good Japanese film you watched?
That looks like fun. Just in the trailer they showed how to stretch 2 minutes into at least 8? I'm sure the guy who does Pitch Meetings can appreciate the effort that goes into filming something like that
Yeah, it was really smart in the way it covered all potential plot gaps. Only 70 minutes long too, but it packs in enough. Really good fun, and it's being distributed by the same people who released One Cut of the Dead a couple of years ago, which was also great.That looks like fun.

Fuck the royal family, obviously, but this was a very good film.
The effects were mindblowing and still hold up today. Macho-man! JK redefining Jamison! Plus wet-nipple Dunst! What's not to like?
I don't think there was anything bad to say about it.
Just to give you a reminder how old this film is, this was the teaser:
Twin Towers! That Nokia phone!
Very nice as always from Pixar.
The Matrix Resurrections (2021)
So .. this is now at Redbox; I rented it last night. Similar to "Black Widow" - uh, he should have died NINE times:
1. Opening: walking on a one-lane bridge, a car comes up from behind him - and he is unaware - guy misses him with an automatic sub machine gun.
2. Again - same bridge, car turns around for another attack - misses AGAIN.
3. While in Cuba - walking in the street with the assault rifle; guy completely misses him from a balcony, and again - Bond didn't see him.
4. In the forest: the double-agent comes barreling through in the Range Rover, with what looks like a thermal sight assault rifle - Bond unaware they are there; guy misses him.
5. Attacking the base, 1: after being discovered, late in the scene - a guy fires at him from Bond's left; he's unaware someone's there - he misses (this is where Bond pulls "the move," from all the opening credits.
6, 7 & 8. Attacking the base, 2: while climbing the stairwell to open the doors, at LEAST three times, the higher elevation guards should have shot him.
9. In the courtyard: bad guy shoots him THREE TIMES (with a pistol), doesn't kill him. Proceeds to walk towards Bond while down. Why? No bad blood between them? Just empty the mag from the edge of the pool..
Meh.

Reminds me of the movie Commando (1985), hundreds of bullets are shot at Arnie, and not one hit him. 😲
Commando - Mansion Shootout Scene (2/3) (1080p)
I just Redboxed this. Very clever movie. If you are into FPS / video games / PCs - there are at least five laugh-out-loud scenes in the movie. Worth seeing!
