Watched North by Northwest (1959) for the first time a few weeks ago.

The film that inspired James Bond, very good acting and directing. Once it starts you never look away.

Speaking of Bond, I saw Spectre the day before yesterday. It's okay. It's Bond I guess. Didn't like the ending.

never watched it because Matt Damon is in it.

I love you.

I don't remember it being too funny but it was cheesy, in the same way Armageddon is, with the addition of nerd 'humour'.

There was just one bit when one of the directors needs a map, so he goes into the cafeteria, takes a photo of Mars of the wall and one of the cafe workers is like "OH C'MOOOONNN JEFF!!". I'm not sure why they put it in there but it got me good. Yeah I'm fine with cheese but their attempts at quirkiness and humour was just painful. Then they'd go into some esoteric conversation about terminal velocity or something. Zzzzzz time to switch off. I thought it might be like Castaway. But instead of a volleyball to talk to, Matt Damon talks to a webcam and becomes every piece of shit Youtuber on the planet. "I'm going to science the shit out of this" CRINGGGEEE!

Matt Damon is ALWAYS annoying.

He made a good Will Hunting.

Beautiful, intense, inspiring. You describe it well. It's a must see. Documentary of the year.

Fargo is incredible (Haven't started season 2 yet). You can also try Mr. Robot. Even though I've seen only 3-4 episodes, I found it great. Just don't have the time to watch TV these days.

I know you didn't ask me, but I've watched it. Thought it was impressive how it managed to portray a group of despicable people without alienating the audience. But, in my opinion, it lacked ambition. It's pretty clear right away that these assholes shouldn't be kept away in a safe-house at the beach. But we never get to the root of the problem or get to really know the characters. Too much relies on the atmosphere of the film, and while it captures a bleak environment convincingly, that's just not enough to make it a great film.

Atmosphere is emphasized at the expense of a more ambitious character study, and given the nature of the film, what could have made it great was a deeper "probing' into the psyche. It felt like the film tried to be a scathing indictment of the hypocrisy of the Catholic Church, but instead fell flat on its face in that regard, and became more so a moody, atmospheric piece.

Give me some movie names. Any genre.

Obi-Wan Kenobi, Han Solo, Anakin Skywalker, Yoda, Chewbacca. All movie names from Star Wars.

So disappointing as always.

You never watch the stuff I recommend you. Have you seen Cinema Paradiso yet?
