Got off my duff and signed up for a *new Letterboxd account: https://letterboxd.com/t__bomba/
I went to Duke's account and followed everybody I thought was from Match Cut. If I missed you, lemme know. (Obviously, you're not obligated to follow back.)

Yaaaaaay
I'm blocking you the second you tweet about Boston sports
Heh, hey, 2 out of my last 4 tweets were Movies/TV related. I would say if my SportsTweet ratio goes above 3:1, that's grounds for blocking.Quoting Irish (view post)
Sweet, glad to see you on there. Add me, I'm Lazlo and/or Griffin Van Malssen. Just followed you.Quoting Irish (view post)

Oh I didn't know anyone could actually see that page other than the user, which is why I took screenshots and posted in the 2019 thread.
Damn impressive lazlo- 454 films watched. Only 177 for me- my third lowest ever.
Here's mine; probably pretty boring for you all: https://letterboxd.com/dukefrukem/year/2019/
3 films a week is pretty significant tho.
Your first / last / most viewed films were interesting (although I guess not terribly surprising in your case haha).
Can you believe the wife had never seen the Indiana Jones, Matrix and Riddick films? Me neither.
Presumably your wife isn't a teenage boy or a big nerd. So I get why she'd never seen those movies. (Especially something like "Riddick.")Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Btw, glad you liked "Nightingale"! You're the only other person I know who's actually seen the damn thing.
Yeh it was really hard to watch with those beginning scenes as a new parent. And just when you didn't think you could hate a character anymore....
I don't know what happens in Nightingale, but gear yourself for more of that reaction. I adored Under The Skin, best of 2014 I said, fantastic cerebral sci-fi, cant wait to watch it again...and every time I'm ready to press play I remember the scene on the beach. With the toddler. Its damn near unbearable. It makes me shake, especially my hands. Then I damn near go in to full on anxiety attack.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Lucky for me, I thought that was the most overrated movie MC has ever been obsessed with. Close second Spring breakers. Third Tree of Life. But I don't ever have to worry about watching that movie again.Quoting Skitch (view post)
Spring Breakers and Tree of Life were both pretty well rubbish imo
Point being, little scenes like that can grab you by the throat in this new stage of life.
Totally. I watched Mother! for the first time in 2019 too. HUGELY impactful on me.
Spring Breakers is one of the most formally adventurous American films of the past decade. Under the Skin is fine but made me wish I were watching a real Kiarostami film. My feelings about The Tree of Life are pretty well known on this forum.
On an unrelated note, my Letterboxd stats can be found here.
Just because...
The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg, 2022) mild
Petite maman (Céline Sciamma, 2021) mild
The Banshees of Inisherin (Martin McDonagh, 2022) mild
The last book I read was...
The Complete Short Stories by Mark Twain
The (New) World
All of you did the upgraded Letterboxd account?
It seemed pointless to dutifully log every movie I see for a year and not get the year-end stats. And it's only twenty bucks. I won't starve.Quoting Ezee E (view post)

I didn't get the super-pro account or whatever because I'm too cheap.
Gotta say it's been fun to see people's ratings/ reviews come across the homepage as they see new stuff.
ETA: Although I might need a Matchcut-to-Letterboxd translator, from real name to handle, because I'm bound to forget who is who. (Except for Duke, who conveniently goes by "Dukefrukem" on every platform ever created. )

There you go. Another one I want to rewatch but damn THAT snap sound i almost pulled my hair out the first time.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
I'm too cheap for pro as well. Plus I'm a year and a half behind on letterboxing...I'll catch up one of these days.
Quoting Irish (view post)Totally. Had no idea this guy, Michael Sooriyakumaran, following me was Baby Doll. Would have been following him a long time ago.Quoting baby doll (view post)
We tried something a while back but it's incomplete. http://matchcut.artboiled.com/showth...-E-mail-Thread
And yeh I have the LB upgraded account. I dont might paying for something that i use as much as LB. Film is essentially a hobby and worth $50/year.
How soon do we need to contact number8 to create a 2020 movie and TV forum?
And does anyone have access to change the damn banner?
I thought you had access to all of that stuff now? o.O
