Little update, so I know that "Films That I Missed in 2019" won for my poll recently. Unfortunately, their are films that recently came out on dvd, that have a long holding list for the library system that I use. Plus not everything for 2019 is out yet on dvd, their are films in December that I wanted to see and Didnt. That I wanted to see, so i have to push it back until September. Hopefully you guys are not upset/mad/angry with me. So for next month I'm doing "More Classic Disney Animation Films".

-Matthew.

This series really is growing on me and now that we have a new and very interested love interest in Gin, I'm one very happy bunny. Owen Grayson is really growing on me!

I also loved the plot of this one. It was about time one of the major bad guys got taken out, especially after that bit at the beginning. He was a b*stard of the highest order and I enjoyed reading how Gin went about taking him out and that bit at the end with Mab was really good.

Off to start book 4!

"Between Opening Night and A Woman Under the Influence, Cassavetes. I still dream, to this day, of having an experience. I thought the borderline guys are the modern version of this, of creating a really intimate, truly intimate environment, without any kind of producers with creative control, or any kind of desire of a specific distribution, but to just make stories that you want to make because they are close to you and personal and interesting and character-driven. Gena Rowlands, to me, is so amazing to watch. That’s something I discovered more in my early 20s, Cassavetes movies.#"

1986 | Hip-hop, Rock

"It was awesome. I heard 'Slow and Low' way before I had ever seen them - before they had images to them; before I knew they were white guys. It didn’t matter, because they had an in depth understanding and a true genuine love for hip-hop. It was apparent. I had a friend Mark, who had a Hyundai car. His system was so good in that car, and that's all he used to play. When I found out they were white, I loved it even more, because it turned me onto different types of music, like the Led Zeppelin sample on 'Rhyming & Stealin'."

"The Sixth Sense. I don’t know if you’d call it a horror movie — the genre’s not really my cup of tea, but I heard people say “You gotta go see this movie The Sixth Sense.” I was blown away, ’cause I took it hook, line and sinker. I never saw that ending coming. I was one of those guys. M. Night had the hook in my mouth. He shot it in a way that, when I go back and look at it and knowing what you didn’t know the first time, I just think he did a masterful job with that movie."

2012 | Comedy, Drama, International

"It’s a French movie, pretty recently that I just – and I’m not alone, it was, like, the biggest movie of the year around the world – but I just love it so much. It’s so great. It’s about a friendship between two guys: one who is a super rich guy who is a paraplegic and his caretaker, and the friendship that comes of that working relationship. It’s funny, it’s real, it’s sweet, it’s moving. I cried, l laughed — it’s just a brilliant film. And I’m not surprised it did as well as it did. It’s so good, it’s so good."
