NOTES:
- Should probably address the amount of sonic 3 here um ok me and three of my friends saw it in theaters, two of my friends left and me and the remaining friend theater-hopped and saw it again for funsies, and then me and the friend i theater-hopped with saw the movie in theaters again the next day because a DIFFERENT friend had mixed up the dates and we decided to just go again with them to make up for it because hey, why not. The amount of times I saw it may suggest that i LOVED it but i in reality just liked it. if you do not like jim carrey you will HATE this movie. i am neutral on jim carrey.

- i fucking love phantasm so much

- i watched two nosferatus. i was going to watch the 2024 one too but the link i had to the movie (this was before it was officially out) got got and i was a little nosferatu'd out anyways so i didn't get to it. one day i'll watch it tho! i liked the original one more than the 70s one.

- i also love the evil dead franchise but everyone does so im gonna reiterate that i fucking love phantasm PLEASE atleast go watch the first one

- Airplane is okay but very overrated unfortunately. due to the amount of people that love this movie i was expecting it to be a riot but like half the jokes werent even that funny

RATINGS:
★★★★★: Phantasm (1979), Phantasm II (1988), Evil Dead II (1987), Army of Darkness (1992)
★★★★: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022), Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (2024), Eraserhead (1977), Nosferatu (1922)
★★★: Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979), Airplane! (1980)
★★: N/A
★: N/A

NOTES:
- My brother chose madame web. we just dogged on it the whole time. it really is not good.

- expect to see cats 1998 on here many more times

- PHANTASM

- okay i was on a bit of a one piece kick for a little. i know fanletter isnt a movie but are you really gonna argue against it being included here? X) anyways my ranking of these ones here are best->worst: baron omatsuri->fanletter->strong world->The First One->stampede. baron omatsuri is fucking crazy and i think even non-onepiece fans would enjoy it, fanletter is so good i had to watch it twice in a row, strong world is very, very onepiece (very silly), the first movie is just a long filler episode which is fine by me, and stampede is a bit too "whoa!!1 all the characters i like are here!!!!" for me and the cgi fucking SUCKS (although special shoutout to buggy&co and USOPP (I LOVE USOPP) for being excellent in this one).

- the big chunk of one piece movies immediately followed by fucking REFLECTIONS OF EVIL is absolutely hysterical to me but i feel like the amount of one piece fans who have also seen all of reflections of evil is extremely small so i have nobody to laugh at it with me

- my dad chose hollywood shuffle and i wasnt expecting to like it all that much but i had a good time tbh

- i think everyone should watch mad god at least once in their lifetime.

RATINGS:
★★★★★: Cats (1998), Re-Animator (1985), Bride of Re-Animator (1989), One Piece Fan Letter (2024), One Piece: Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island (2005), Mad God (2021), Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter (2001)
★★★★: Class of Nuke 'Em High (1986), Zoolander (2001), Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead (1994), One Piece Film: Strong World (2009)
★★★: One Piece: The Movie (2000), One Piece: Stampede (2019), Hollywood Shuffle (1987)
★★: Madame Web (2024)
★: N/A
IDK BUT I LIKED IT: Reflections of Evil (2002)

NOTES:
- The Thief and the Cobbler is also a movie i think everyone should watch at least once

- the two old live action disney movies were picked by my mom because she, apparently, was scared of them as a kid (especially the first one). what kind of movies were her parents making her watch bro

- THEN AGAIN, i can't really judge the movies my mom watched when i not only CHOSE to watch a movie called "buttcrack", i also really enjoyed it. what can I say a movie about an undead really annoying guy who doesn't want revenge but has to enact it in order to be at peace is really funny

- none of the human centipede movies are good or worth your time but i think the second one is the best cuz it's pretty gross (which is what i watched the first movie for and didn't really get - not as nasty as most people seem to think!). seriously though, watch literally any other movie besides a human centipede movie. they're mostly just boring and shitty (ha-ha).

- i was not fucking expecting to like thunderbolt and lightfoot as much as i did but holy crap is it a good time. the sweetest movie about a bunch of guys robbing a bank ive ever seen

- i do legitimately think that braindead is the best movie ever made. it's so fucking fun and stupid and bloody. GOD!!!

- IDGAF im putting my brother's high school's production of the addams family musical on the log. i liked it a lot i genuinely enjoy all the plays and musicals they do. the band was actually competent this time (RIP TO LAST YEAR'S 9 TO 5 PRODUCTION I FELT BAD FOR THE ACTORS). everyone was solid but the two kids playing morticia and gomez were REALLY FUCKING GOOD. this however is the first addams family thing i have ever seen in my entire life and im sure i would have gotten more out of it if i were already a fan. also i was exhausted and i had a headache and the ppl sitting behind me were kicking my seat for the entirety of act 2 but thats not really the musicals fault. And special shoutout to [NAME REDACTED] who has been in like every production possible since he was a freshman and who ALWAYS overacts ur a legend dude im dead serious

- gold medal is the worst ace attorney stageplay but its also batshit insane (which is respectable). a lot of people describe a lot of things as "fever dream"s but i think it's pretty accurate here.

RATINGS:
★★★★★: Freaked (1993), Cats (1998), Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (1974), Braindead (1992), Forbidden Zone (1980)

NOTES:
- ive definitely seen the entirety of the princess bride before but this is the first time ive sat down and watched it in full on purpose. it's iconic for a reason, huh?

- watching batman forever was the most ive ever felt like i was in a movie theater while just sitting on my bed in my room. unbelievable movie. good god. cant believe the amount of people that think it's mid/bad!!! batman returns and batman 1989 were great also. batman and robin was kind of dumb but pretty fun (people are also too mean to this one). overall vibes are pretty killer all around.

- the minecraft movie was so ass but i loved it. literally exactly what i wanted from this stupid fucking thing. it felt like someone filled out a vaguely minecraft-themed mad libs and made it into a movie. i wish i was higher while watching it than i was

- cannot believe that every phantasm movie has been a hit so far i've only got one left and the lowest rating i've given any of them has been a 4/5

- 1 day i will find a horror movie that scares me but today is not that day !!!!!!!!! slight spoilers but the line at the end of the poughkeepsie tapes where they suggest that the killer might be in YOUR THEATER RIGHT NOW is very fun and i bet was very effective when people were actually watching this in theaters

- ^^ scratch what i just said. i watched inland empire right afterwards and i can no longer claim that "i have never been scared by a horror movie". that movie is terrifying i kind of get why people dont watch a lot of horror if THAT is how most of them make them feel. that being said: excellent movie. oh my god. so fucking scary.

- watched shrek for the first time in around 10 years, tried my best to look at it as Just A Movie (ignoring its reputation), and thoroughly enjoyed myself. i don't even remember why this movie is a meme. and then i watched the second one and it was better somehow? crazy!

- gunhed gets a 3/5 almost solely because the style score is like a 10/5. the vibes and effort are carrying the movie completely, which is just fine in this case. X)

- i watched the extended cut of the hateful eight! it really didn't feel like 3 and a half hours. also spoilers, but im always a fan of a movie about a bunch of people having a miserable time in the wilderness and eventually dying horribly.

RATINGS:
★★★★★: Batman Forever (1995), Phantasm IV: Oblivion (1998), Inland Empire (2006), Freaked (1993)

★★★: Cannibal! The Musical (1993), Batman & Robin (1997), The Poughkeepsie Tapes (2007), Gunhed (1989), UHF (1989)
★★: A Minecraft Movie (2025)
★: N/A

NOTES:
- Idiocracy was a recommendation from my parents (both of them, which is surprising, because they do not usually have similar movie opinions). Um, deep down under the layers of 2000s nonsense, i think its heart is in the right place? maybe? And there were a couple jokes that got me. But man, it really doesn't lend itself any favors with all of that aforementioned 2000s nonsense, it all just seems pretty contradictory to me. and this is coming from someone who likes a lot of things that are full of 2000s nonsense! Mostly makes me go "hmm!" and pose exactly like joe on the poster.

- shocking: conclave was better than idiocracy.

- weird selection of movies so far, huh? the bee movie fucking sucks.

- my friend put on sonic 3 again when i spent the night at their house LOL

- almost nothing was watched at all this month sorry i got hyperfixated on a special interest again (psychonauts) so that took up basically 100% of my thoughts and time i fucking love psychonauts so much

RATINGS:
★★★★★: N/A
★★★★: Conclave (2024), Gummo (1997), Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (2024)
★★★: N/A
★★: Idiocracy (2006)
★: Bee Movie (2007)
