It was on my list because of the soundtrack, so when I didn’t hear the iconic track at all during the movie I looked it up.

Turns out that there is a re-scored version with a completely different soundtrack, and that was the version we got…

. Featuring an exclusive new soundtrack curated by Zane Lowe.

I will be watching this movie again next weekend, with the proper soundtrack

It took me a good fifteen minutes to realize Grand Moff Tarkin wasn’t in the Universal version of the Mummy.

Was over someone’s house and they wanted to watch a comedy. They were like, “We both like Robin Williams. This should be a funny movie.”.

Jakob the Liar It was a movie set during WW2 Holocaust at a camp. Not very many laughs…at all.

Actually, if you look at Robin Williams repertoire of films, he does a lot of very depressing movies. Like the ratio of funny movies to depressing movies is extraordinarily lopsided.

Yeah, but this was like 1999 and we didn’t know the wide range of talent that the man had. I saw 1 hour photo and what dreams may come later.

The behind the scenes for 1 Hour Photo has perfectly normal Robin Williams goofing off and it’s just jarring going from watching the really serious and depressing movie and just seeing him on the set goofing off and making everyone around laugh

Off the top of my head, What Dreams May Come and One Hour Photo are two wildly different types of movie, both kinda bleak in their own way, and neither what you’d turn to if you wanted a Robin Williams comedy. To some extent World’s Greatest Dad as well, though that one actually is pretty funny.

I am not sure if this counts but my mom put on Alien for me on Hulu, and it had some weird cuts in it. Turns out I had Hulu w/ Live TV so it was probably a cable edit of the film.

I ended up giving it an 8/10 but I bet I would have rated it higher if the cuts weren’t so strange. I’ll need to buy it on 4K and watch it properly at some point.

Watched „Children of men“ expecting a good movie.

Turns out it’s some religious hate bs story.

Was really disappointed because the quality of the actors and the whole technical setup made the impression of a „could be good“-movie
