I’m excited to go through your reviews. I’m not totally allergic to horror but anything more unsettling than The Shining or has more jump scares than The Thing make me anxious!

I’m lucky to live at the Oregon coast so I might need to avoid The Lighthouse just to keep my chill when I’m at the beach.

You were remarkably accurate, especially for someone who has never interacted with me before. I’m a big of 3/4 of your top 4 (I haven’t seen The Lighthouse cause scary things scare me 🤷‍♂️

Thanks to @cinefeast33.bsky.social for sharing the reading you gave them and making me want to join in.

I also started getting into physical media and I’ve been rewatching lots of my favorite/most admired movies for the past year which coincides with the start of my letterboxd…

Consider me explicitly asking in retrospect; this is such a cool idea and “get to know you” sort of thing!

I freely admit I’m over indexed in 5 star ratings but I’ve consciously trying to fill big gaps in my foreign/arthouse viewing.

Couldn’t get close to the amount you saw but it’s small increase for me from last month; and I saw some stone called bangers.

I share your thoughts about “The Sweet Hereafter”; it’s one of the most emotionally impactful films I’ve seen. I’m hoping the rumors I’ve seen of a Criterion release in the next year are true 🤞

Mine isn’t as long but almost everything was a first time watch for me and that felt like a personal accomplishment

If there were room I’d also include:
The Virgin Suicides
The Fog of War
The Royal Tenenbaums

I was bummed when Richard Linklater beat Wong Kar Wai, but maybe it was a blessing to avoid the Coen steamroller.

Sad but true. The only thing I hate more than disagreeing with you is changing the clocks forward.
