Hmmm this is a hard one... I don't watch new movies very often
I watch a lot of movies
I watched one called Your Name that was very touching
Oh I've never heard of that one before. What's it about?
It's an anime that made me bawl like a baby About a guy and a girl that switch bodies on random days And they try to meet in person And they are just so sweet and man... So cute.
Okay. Is it like Howl's Moving Castle and Spirited Away? Those are the only two Anime movies I've ever seen
Yes! Exactly!
Ok. Nice. I quite enjoyed Howl's Moving Castle. I
Though this one  isn't quite as abstract. But I also love Howl's Moving Castle I highly recommend it
Okay. Well I've been watching all the Marvel movies in preparation for Avengers: Infinity War, and Guardians of the Galaxy was better than I remember it being.
Heehee. I liked that one. But I'm a sucker for classic rock so that sold me
Yeah they have a legendary soundtrack It brought in so many things I love about movies - it was funny, epic, emotional, and had a really good story The end of it was an emotional roller coaster watching Groot die to save all of them which made me cry, then Peter Quill doing a dance off to distract Ronan which was funny And then they defeat Ronan in an epic manner by holding an Infinity Stone
I appreciate people who really love Marvel films. To be honest, I'm not huge into the superhero hype. I mean, I see them as entertaining but not unmissable. But maybe their merit is just that they're entertaining? But, I'm kind of picky about what will get me to the theatre I'll probably watch Infinity War at some point Did you ever watch Black Panther? I think I'd like to see that eventually as well
Yeah Black Panther was really good. You should see it before Infinity War because Wakanda (Black Panther's country) is going to play a big role in Infinity War
I definitely will I like the idea  of an Afro-centric popular movie
Yeah it was a really cool new take on the Marvel Universe And I also used to be really picky about what to see in theaters since it is so expensive. But then I found out about Movie Pass.
Oh yeah? Heh.
Yeah I pay $10 a month and can see one movie a day with it. I obviously don't have the time to see one a day, but I use it a few times every month and it's worth it.
Dude, woah. That's a craazy deal I think my husband had that at one point I'm gonna look into that. Is it a subscription?
Yeah. $10  a month. They send you this credit card and when you go to see a movie, you just check in on the app right before you pay and then use the card to pay.
Woooah.  So moviepass.com?
Yeah. I think they are changing how it works now though. It looks like it's only 4 movies a month instead of the previous 30, but it is still a good deal.
Cool! Sorry for the delay Helping a student
No worries. I'm not offended. I also just watched A Quiet Place over the weekend. That was really good.
Oh man! I wanna see that! Would I be able to handle it if I'm a sissy?
Yeah. It's not exactly a scary movie. It's mostly just a thriller that has you on the edge of your seat the whole time.
How about the ending? Does it make you mad or sad? Because I have a hard time with movies that get me invested in characters who die or are super damaged by the end Heheh I actually like thrillers. Can't do horror, but suspense is fun
The ending was interesting because it made me a bit sad, but it left me wanting more.
Hmm... okay... I'm dubious. But a lot of people who I know well liked it Hahah, I'm just a tender person
Yeah. You'll have to see it. It's hard to explain what it's like
Right, right. I don't expect spoilers. You handled the description well
A month or so ago, I watched A Wrinkle In Time. I really enjoyed that one. It made me cry. I never read the book, but everyone who read it seemed pretty disappointed with the movie. As a stand alone thing, it was really good.
I haven't read the book either. I had that experience with Ready Player One. I really loved it, but my husband who'd read the book had some critiques. He still liked it, but it was an interesting experience for me I'd never been to a book movie with someone who'd read it when I hadn'
Yeah. I never ready Ready Player One either, but I liked the movie. The biggest disappointment I've had with movies of books I've read was Percy Jackson.
Oh yeah? Didn't read or watch it. I'm a huge Harry Potter fan though, and I've seen all the movies after having read all the books. And, you know what? I love them both I don't mind that they made changes. They had to.
Yeah I love the Harry Potter books and movies.
And I respect it as a separate medium Yeah. Me too. I think they work together to make the HP universe what it is
Yeah. I felt they were able to capture the books very well in the movies.
I'm of the opinion that it was one of the most perfectly casted book movies I've ever seen Everyone became their part And they did so well that reading the books I see them as the characters now
Yeah they have blended the books and movies together so well.
Like, I appreciate all the work they did. It's kind of amazing that a franchise that spanned over a decade and changed directors 3 or 4 times was able to keep its charm And like, have a consistent cast. The only exception being Dumbledore, but he couldn't help dying That's what really made it awesome
Yeah. I liked the 2nd Dumbledore a lot so it wasn't really a problem
I liked them both for different reasons. It would have been interesting to see how Richard Harris did if he were in the later films, but he was soooo old, like, I understand. What he did, he did awesomely. He definitely looked the part Which brings me to one last thing I need to tell you about before I head to work: Did you know that Amazon purchased the rights to Lord of the RIngs? And they're planning on making a series out of it?
Yes I heard that. I'm pretty excited. I hope it goes well.
Isn't that CRAZY?! Like, I think I'm excited but I don't know yet. Yeah, me too. Hoping for the best
Yeah. Luckily, it is a big enough universe that there's a lot of options for directions to go without too much trouble.
True, true. A'ight. I gotta head out. But thanks for the chat! Enjoy your movies!
Thanks. Have fun at work
