I had a draft saved from 2 years ago about my media diet. Some may say it’s too late to finish and publish it, but I say let’s sit with what I was peeping back in 2024.

The Shape …

I laughed a lot.

Surprisingly heartwarming! Others have noted the anti-capitalist themes, which are certainly here, and made more relevant by the movie almost not seeing release so Warner could write it off on their taxes. It's also got some solid jokes and Will Forte is always great. I didn't love how the movie looked; the animation is all 3D made to look like hand drawn, and it ends up looking like a video game. All and all, good fun.

Very funny. Relationships go boom.

Still the best.

It’s a thin soup at this point.

Felt like a follow up to the 2013 remake in four tone, but way more gross. There’s lots of gore but it was the no blood moment that made me gag.

I’ve seen it twice in the theaters now and I picked up more the second time. I was also the oldest person in the theater by a good amount both times. I’m hip.

Fun sequel. Hard to pull off a decent one with a high concept premise like this and while it doesn’t reach the original it’s a real good time.

Really fun and more emotional than I expected. Ace cast.

Genuinely unsettling. This thing has been out for weeks and my local theater was almost full. I didn't know the director was a former YouTuber before I saw the movie, or that he was so young. I can clock some of that inexperience in retrospect, but overall it's a confident, stylish, and creepy debut. Also, according to the box office, everyone has already seen this, so y'all know what I mean.

Ghost train is best train.

Train cinema forever. Every genre. What a romp.

What a fun slow burn 70s disaster movie. The cast is insane, and I found it so compelling throughout.

This movie whips.

Great New York movie, great transit movie.

This movie is so cool and legit funny. It’s so much more absurdist than most comedies, much less comedies from the fourties’

This movie is so much fun.

Never seen it before. Dumb fun. I'm in the "Swayze is charismatic" camp.

Impressive visuals for the time, and slow paced. The opening segment is all still images with text boxes. The conclusion draws some I think for the time progressive parallels between witchcraft persecution and the then modern treatment of women, but it sounds ignorant from now modern knowledge. Interesting from a history of film perspective, and there’s some great shots of nuns sticking out their tongues.

Rocks.
