I also saw Cats - I had to see the BAD VISUAL EFFECTS version before theaters update as many have started to do already. My brain is still trying to process that one. The reviews are accurate. It's a mess. It's insane and baffling. It's... kind of got a strange charm if you're someone who appreciates bad movies? Definitely a unique movie experience, if nothing else. One of those rare gems of a bad movie that had a $100 million budget but manages to be completely terrible on just about every level.
What was the last movie you've seen?
Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
I saw Star Wars Episode IX: Rise of Skywalker over the weekend... it wasn't BAD-BAD. I wasn't bored, the way I was with Solo or Rogue One. But I really didn't appreciate how it undermined a lot of what The Last Jedi did. I also have some big problems with the re-introduction of Emperor Palpatine. Rambly nitpicky thoughts behind the spoiler tag.

Saw Episode IX...Seems like the middle Star Wars movie is the best one in each trilogy, from both the perspective of writing and direction (and, come to think of it, from basically every other measure of good film making). Lots of shoehorning and retconning in IX, though I mostly enjoyed it as much as I probably did any of the prequel films. It had a lot of pacing problems and some groan-inducing dialogue (even for this franchise), but I dug the effects work in some of the bigger setpieces and I still grinned at all the cheap cameos and references to prior films. Billy Dee was really wasted, though...

All this talk about how 'meh' Star Wars is makes me happy I went to see Knives Out this weekend instead.

Another holiday themed write-up:
Home for the Holidays
No, it is not as bonkers as Blood Beat (sadly). But it is a very early slasher starring Sally Field. I think that counts for something.

LOTR: The Two Towers. The end credits has like a good 10-15min mentioning every member in the "Official Lord of the Rings Club".
CG is amazing considering the year. I would still give it 10/10 for visual effects. Makes you wonder how much did we really advance technologically. My only guess is "same results but easier achieved".
