Here's my ranking of #MoviesForTim thanks to @kdnewsguy.bsky.social's annual list. Note: ChatGPT struggled (incredibly!) with the concept of the podium.
1) Dr. Strangelove
2) 12 Angry Men
3) Double Indemnity
4) The Social Network
5) Field of Dreams
6) Howl's Moving Castle
Howl's Moving Castle (2005)
Anime 'bonus' from @kdnewsguy.bsky.social. Opens with Chopin, so my wife was happy! Calcifer is top notch. Better than Catbus? Different colour = different door... easy. Other magic... huh. Don't overthink this, just enjoy the ride. MUCH better than Kiki's! #MoviesForTim
Let's take a brief break from #MoviesForTim due to #WWERaw on Netflix... and my trepidation (big word) around anime.
The Social Network (2010)
Oh! That violinist (my wife noticed) isn't actually playing! BCIT wasn't this wild... maybe we needed a rowing team? The movie is an incredible story, if accurate. Justin Timberlake was captivating. Enjoyed the ending (clicking refresh). Good movie! #MoviesForTim
Field of Dreams (1989)
Wait... $7 for two dogs and two beers? Baseball has a certain romance to it, which made this enjoyable! The (unexplained) paranormal side isn't my style... it's like John Cena 'You Can't See Me' vibes (sometimes?) to the players. It was alright. #MoviesForTim
Dr. Strangelove (1964)
Captivating, intense deadlines... oh, and it's a comedy! Needed to digest the ending (what's with the hand?), but after reading more, it's a great satire. Graphics of the USA bomber were sus (#1957CGI). Really enjoyed this one, and might need to watch it again! #MoviesForTim
An image of 15 men (it should be 12) in a room with the text '12 ANGRY MEN'
12 Angry Men (1957)
Jurors explaining the evidence was an effective way to tell the story. Acting felt hurried in certain scenes. Could high-waisted pants ever return? Characters had clear traits/stereotypes... like wrestling! Easy to follow along. This is the winner of #MoviesForTim, so far!
Good pick, @kdnewsguy.bsky.social. Enjoy the AI image for each movie... spell check is not included. #MoviesForTim
Double Indemnity (1944)
First, 'indemnity' is a big word. The figure on crutches (at the start) is an intriguing tease. The killers are... faces or heels? The term 'heel' is actually used - 10 points for Slytherin! Straight down the line, this was fun. PS. Medford, Oregon sounds nice. #MoviesforTim
My vote is for #MoviesForTim!
