Gladiator - Seen this movie a shit ton, it was a DVD that came with the PS2, and it still holds up. Take it an an unabashedly manly man fantasy movie, it's masterpiece.
The fact it's something aimed at men would probably upset dumbasses today.

Lone Wolf Mcquade - Hybrid Martial Arts/Western movie with pretty boss rip off soundtrack of Once Upon A Time In The West
The Beguiled(71).I usually love movies with Clint Eastwood but this movie just didn't do it for me.The people that recommended this movie in the Horror subreddit must have been VIPS in Epstein's terror island.Just in the beginning the character played by Clint Eastwood kisses a little girl in the mouth in the scene were they were hiding from the Confederate soldiers.From that point the basic premise of this movie is a group of school girls and an incestuous principal betray their own kind(confederates) cause they got in love? with a random Yankee.The guy that recommended this shit said it had Horror vibes of some shit.I just didn't knew at that time what was he really referring.Man for this shit i didn't watch Midway or Ford v Ferrari.I should stop taking suggestions from reddit regarding movies.
The Andromeda Strain.I was looking forward to a story about some kind of pandemic.Instead this movie was more centered on the scientists that were trying to discover a cure for an alien virus.Overall it was a bit boring.Now i know why i never heard about it.
The Circle.First of all i was actually trying to watch a movie with the same name but somehow got confused and up watching this movie.I thought it had an interesting premise about privacy in today's world.But somehow the story took a weird swerve and actually endorsed that shit.Instead of condemning it.The last shot of the ''self-partnered'' surrounded by cameras broadcasting her daily life to the world didn't seem to bother her.
I saw the Joker movie. It was pretty good. I think I gave it an 8. Performance was well done. I don't care much about superhero movies and I still 'enjoyed' it. It was pretty dark.
It's interesting that this movie got political attention. If we want to look at it as some kind of political statement (which is never 100% guaranteed to be the intent.) I would say it was a very liberal movie. Spoiler territory: It was warning people about a rich poor divide and showing how budget cuts on healthcare can be kind of a problem. It's not a bad message imo and I don't really get the gut reaction from the media. Then again, movie critics and the msm in general have kinda lost the plot for a while now. Also, I don't watch movies to interpret them as a statement on modern politics, and am typically disengaged as soon as a movie gets preachy or butchers its own coherence to go there. (Star Trek: Picard.)
Just dropped Metallica S&M (conducting a symphony) after 34 minutes. It's a two hour film. I really don't understand why this band is so liked. I kind of like two of their albums, but they rank pretty low for metal for me.
Top three concert films currently are...
Prince: Sign o' the Times, Talking Heads: Stop Making Sense and Madonna: Blond Ambition Tour.
Alita: Battle Angel.
I liked it. Should have follow up as well.
It won't. Fox is owned by Disney now, who only do safe bets. The movie barely broke even. Some think it was a loss. I recommend the manga. Was released in a nice boxset just prior to the movie.

Is there an anime, or only manga? I've read some of it.

There is a short direct to video anime, but it covers the same material you've already watched.
The Happening.I have seen snippets of this movie so i finally decided to watch it properly.It was good.But my God...i usually don't get awe struck with actresses in movies but whew the chick that plays Alma just hit a special chord in me...She is drop dead gorgeous....Ahem...the story was pretty good...before i saw it properly i thought the ending was pretty weak...but now that i saw it properly...i thought it was pretty good.
Time Machine(1960).I watched the remake a while ago or maybe i should say i watched a few parts from here and there but never watched the 60s version...both movies have different takes.This one for example was more about the nature of Mankind.While the remake was about the mc trying to save his gf from getting killed.There is one thing i noticed tho...I was kinda surprised they race swapped the entire Eloi in the remake from the 60's version were all of them were blonde.Marylin Manson was also a remake only character.Overall i prefer the 60's version.The mc felt more mature and grounded unlike the one in the remake that just couldn't accept his gf is dead for good or shit happens and get over it.The best part in the 60's version was when the mc inspires the Eloi to fight the morlocks.Instead of acting like dumb cattle.It remind me of a story i read in a Conan the Barbarian comic.I rarely read comics but that story was great.For those interested it's called ''Lair of the Beast-Men''
@mattbbpl: I'm 42 and still in that phase...
Noooooo.... That means the only light at the end of the tunnel may be him leaving for college at 18!
As for the topic, I was conned into watching the "Dora the Explorer" movie by the wife. I went in expecting to hate it, but I actually enjoyed it (although it still feels weird to say it). The writers knew that they were making a ridiculous movie based on a ridiculous premise about a ridiculous children's TV show, and they leaned all the way into it. I spent half the runtime laughing at the movie WITH the movie which was completely unexpected.
I thought I was going to get a 2/10, but got a 6/10. I'd watch it again with the right company.
Sonic The Hedgehog(2020), I like it but found Sonic kinda annoying at times. It was like if my nephew who thinks he knows everything and talks alot. Jim Carrey as Doctor Robotnik was the best part of the movie. Reminded me so much of The Mask and Ace Venture where he was at his peak in comedy. Also liked the end credits for the sequel if we get one. 8/10.
Contamination.A surprisingly good movie.I admit i kinda disregard it as another C Italian Horror movie at first but the movie actually had a good plot and a pretty good ending.Man even the final words of one of the protagonists almost gave me goosebumps.Overall this movie felt kinda like a Lovecraft story.
Just watched Nicolas cage's "Joe." What a piece of crap. Does Hollywood have anything good to offer at all?
Non-Stop.7/10
I would give it a 7.5 just because I love Liam Neeson.
I actually thought it was quite decent, I have seen far worse movies than Joe.
OHMSS.
Some stretches of this are really boring, and the Bond obviously sucks the balls. But I love the soundtrack and action pieces along with it's Empire-Strikes-Back ending, before Empire Strikes Back was a thing.
I want to watch a good horror movie - Just finished watching The Sinister - it was quite decent, but the sequel was a disappointment.
Impractical Jokers: The Movie. It was very funny, you will enjoy it much more if you have previously watched the show.
