I've ever seen Gilly until just now. I am the polar opposite. Tilly was my first cat's name and now a state of mind. One can be too tilly.Tilly, when I see your name I think of Gilly.

Oh yeah, definitely.They were funny at times!
Had a crush on Christina Applegate since her Kelly Bundy days
Oh yeah, definitely.
Schwing!!
I watch the Perfect Host...a very odd film. I thought it was funny.
We watched that one, too. Was the book well done? I felt like I was missing something in the translation though I did like the movie. Better before the monster was revealed, but isn't that nearly always the way? Dark Was the Night was like that, too, as was The Witch.
Atomic Blonde-Pretty terrible even with a damn good cast. Pretty people smoking, drinking vodka, and looking petulant. The 'twist' ending was telegraphed within the first half hour of the movie. Bleh.
The Ritual-good monster movie
The Woman in White-British TV movie, I believe. Good cast, but a great deal of the time I felt two steps behind the story. I think this is one where I should have read the book first, as the movie jumped around terribly. It reminded me of the Fassbender/Wasikowska Jane Eyre or the BBC Bleak House, where the movie focused on the 'big moments' and skimmed the interstitial moments that explained what the hell was going on. I HAD read both of those books before seeing the movies, but The Woman in White defeated me.
Hours of This Is Us on Hulu. Haven't watched a show that can successfully and naturally make you belly laugh at one minute and weep the next since ER.

I thought they did a good job of trimming off some of the extraneous info in the book. I thought the book dragged a bit in the middle and the movie cut a lot of that out. One of those very rare occurrences where I like the movie a bit better than the book.
After a week where the weather prevented me from getting to the cinema:
Red Sparrow - Jennifer Lawrence in drab, vicious spy thriller
Lady Bird - Saoirse Ronan excels in inconsequential high school coming-of-age character piece
Game Night - tolerable comedy with thrills. Or thriller with comedy. Quite funny at times.

Watched a movie called The Gift with Cate Blanchett, Keanu Reeves, Katie Holmes, Hilary Swank, Giovanni Ribisi, Greg Kinnear, Gary Cole. I hadn't heard of it and accidentally stumbled across it while looking for a movie by the same name. It's so star studded, it's unreal. Written by Billy Bob Thornton and Tom Epperson. Every time I turned around, this sexy (but not gross about it) twist-a-minute thriller reached into my chest and brain and began shaking violently! Not a flick for the kiddies, but one I'd highly recommend if you like who-done-its with paranormal overtones.
The Night Of The Living Dead (Criterion collection)
I picked up the recently released Criterion Collection blu-ray and am very impressed. There was a restoration done on this movie and it looks way better than I've ever seen before. There are quite a few interesting bonus features included too. The interviews with the zombies extras are fun.

Teenagers from Outer Space (1959)
Lobstrosities before there were lobstrosities. Only got about 30 minutes into the flick before I turned it off. Too hokey even for me.

I picked up a suggested movie on here - and it's free on Amazon Prime : What We Do in the Shadows (skimom2 and Neesy ). I'm going to watch that tonight!
Yesterday I watched 3 Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri - and wow! 5 stars, 100% YAY from me. It was intense and disturbing and just when you start hating a character their humanity breaks through. I've googled the Writer/Director Martin McDonagh
and plan on watching more of his stuff - he's got quite a few I've heard some buzz about: In Bruges, Seven Psychopaths, - I don't know why I've never watched any of his other films, but now I surely will.
I watched The Florida Project last Sunday - it was intriguing, if a little boring - I like Willem Dafoe - and he was great in it. I'll be looking for more by Sean Baker too
hubba hubba
This week is the Dan Rather interview with Robert Plant - catch it if you can: Tuesday night on Axis.

I enjoyed 3 Billboards.
I just saw your comment way back there!
Sounds like it might be kind of a "mockumentary" - and I love those!
Best in Show, Drop Dead Beautiful, Waiting for Guffman, and the hair stylist one - I can't remember the name! But it had Snape (RIP) in it. I seriously loved Alan Rickman.
I watch Jason Bourne the new one. Ok lots of action. I re watch the old Batman from 1989. Also watching American Gods.... up to Doctor Who..1970
Neesy
#1 fan (Annie Wilkes cousin) 1st cousin Mom's side
Me, too - just watched Galaxy Quest again and he plays a good role in that one. Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Tony Shalhoub and even the guy who just won a Supporting Actor Oscar this year (Sam Rockwell) are all in it.
Watched heartburn today for the first time, I missed it back in the 80s, it was okay, a bit of a downer. But it reminds you what good actors Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson are, she does her part so effortlessly, and Jack is good as a cold, distant cheater.. but mainly it reminds me of Carly Simon..
Last movie I saw was my friend dalmer. And then before that was petter rabbit. Both where good
Have you seen Truly, Madly, Deeply?
edit: what the? I had a whole nother paragraph and disappeared it. Sorry!! The jist: I need to watch Galaxy Quest, and I'm about the watch the vampire mock.
I loved that movie! Nora Ephron wrote it (it was a book first - but I read it after I saw the movie). Jack Nicholson is a great scoundrel. One of my most favorite movies is Terms of Endearment (have you seen it?) - he was so perfectly horrible and endearing. Something I love to say is from that movie ("I'd rather stick needles in my eyes")
