Thought you were talking about the ending of Rashomon at first lol

Pride & Prejudice (2005) has one of the most beautiful and quiet soundtracks, and Jean-Yves Thibaudet’s piano is just lovely and calming. By the 15th or 20th viewing, you can be asleep before Elizabeth and Darcy even meet!

You spelt amazing wrong

Obviously an asterisk next to that one, but for his American films the idea that he basically just showed up twice and won two Oscars is pretty remarkable.

Six string samurai. Not really, but its fun.

Not a movie nor is it entirely about fashion. But the original Gossip Girl (2007) is literally everything you just requested.

Beverly Hills Ninja

Aka “the great white ninja”

Holy shit I've been there too, sleepover anxiety when you couldn't sleep was the worst. You always woke up the next day tired and groggy

STEAK!!!

Andrei Rublev (1966) by Tarkovsky does the trick for me. Works every single time.

My playlist is Gladiator, Armageddon, Shrek 1 and Shrek 2.

Gladiator the soundtrack just hits right and puts me to sleep, Armageddon comes on and if I need to use the toity or drink some water, it's some action for me to enjoy for a couple minutes while I wind back down, Shrek 1 and Shrek 2 make me laugh, and laughing first thing in the morning when you're waking up starts the day on a good note.

Look u/zak55, if you want to play house with unwashed masses, that’s fine, but I think you should spend a little time prioritizing. I really do.

I love this film. It's ridiculous and everyone involved knows it. The overdone vampire death scene, the detention slips for the dead vamps, even the dialogue ("Scuse much? Rude or anything?") still cracks me up. Not sure how I'd feel about it if I saw it for the first time now.

And it doesn't have a 'random love interest stoner dude'. It has Luke Perry. Who was the main reason I watched it in the first place.

I don't know if he was always like that. He used to be fairly fun to chat with back on the old Bronze chatroom, if you caught it with few people it was a good laugh. But then, text conversation - people can represent themselves however they want.

I don't necessarily think he's the devil, but I do think he's probably the sort of person who doesn't do well when given any sort of power.

To be fair, Jet Li was not the greatest actor, especially working in English, so they developed lots of films that just revolved around his martial arts skills and showmanship.

His agent made sure he struck while the iron was hot, at least.

I had drinks with him. He’s incredibly intelligent, witty, and nice. Just constantly barraged with people and probably has low self-control/esteem when he’s alone. I tend to think of him as one of my burnout friend’s who’s artistic craft made him a lot of success and money. But overall, he’s just a mostly typical human caught up in the game of fame.

Loved that movie as a kid. I don't remember it being quite as bad as you say. I wonder if you're a bit younger and maybe just not used to seeing movies from the 80's and early-mod 90's. Perhaps a kid growing up in the late 90's - early 2000's may not be accustomed to that schlock we used to watch before tons of CGI.

I meant in terms of an actual good original movie not in terms of John wick

Honestly I find the movie pretty charming/funny. It doesn't take itself serious, leans into the absurd, and is a relatively fun hour and a half.

Can you name a movie you thought was good that came out in 2022 bc I just looked at the lineup and all I see is meh

Lord of the Rings, the score is fantastic and something homely about middle earth

A Ghost Story One of the most boring and pointless films ever created.

If you do watch it you must let me know what you think. It’s perhaps my favourite Coppola; I’m sure most would (understandably) disagree, but I just really love it.
