I didn’t post anything about the last eleven movies I watched. I thought about doing eleven separate posts, but that sounds hard, so here comes Movie Lightning Round:
Death Race 2000
Exactly how I remember the year 2000.
Cheers for Miss Bishop
“It’s a Wonderful Life,” except without any life.
Stalker
Three hours of guys wandering through fields, and it’s great.
Steamboat Bill, Jr.
Mickey Mouse wasn’t in this at all!
Real Genius
My crush on Michelle Meyrink continues.
Moonage Daydream
I’m not sure how something can have both too much Bowie and not enough Bowie.
Blue Moon
Apparently the after-party for the premiere of Oklahoma! was the source of huge chunks of pop culture.
Hail, Caesar!
Any movie that stops the action for a five minute gay sailor musical number is all right with me.
Peter Pan (1924)
I didn’t really need Peter Pan to have a tacked-on “AMERICA IS THE BEST” subplot.
Belle of the Yukon
A completely by-the-numbers musical western with zero memorable songs.
Keep Your Powder Dry
Gee, I wonder if the two women who can’t stand each other will grudgingly find mutual respect and then become friends?
Some of these were watched for my Walk of Fame project so I’ll end up posting about them again.
…and seriously: the not-musical Hail, Caesar! had a better musical number than anything in Belle of the Yukon.
