Ralph Breaks the Internet

2018

★★ Rewatched

A strange watch. 

The story is tight enough and I enjoyed it just fine. Hell, I probably would have loved it as a kid. My niece sure did. The parade of Disney characters would have seemed unbelievable, in a Roger Rabbit kind of way. Hell, I beamed when I heard Mulan speak. Nostalgia overfloweth…but the constant internet brand placement just feels oppressively gross, in a way that that the arcade-game cameos of the original never did. I don’t know if that’s fair, but that’s how it felt. 

When it comes to kids movies, just give me War Games era internet and stop there please.

Dune

1984

★★ Watched

Never before or since has so much stuff happened in under 2.5 hours.

I dare Denis to do the end credits to Dune Messiah just like this…same music and 1000-yard stares and everything.

Longlegs

★★ Watched

I would have happily talked to that cop about his beautiful Mariners but now I can’t because of weird Nic Cage and the dumb devil.
