@jeffcannata From the guy who recommended "The Dick Van Dyke Show" and "The Goes Wrong Show" comes another sure fire Cannata hit. "In and of Itself" on Hulu. Find 90 minutes and watch it asap. It's funny, moving, and unique. (@davechensky@Devindra you'll dig this too.) #slashtag
If you put the Edge of Tomorrow+ Crank+ Assassin's Creed game+ Groundhog Day in a blender, you get action movie #Bosslevel. Directed by Joe Carnahan, with Frank Grillo, Mel Gibson, Naomi Watts with Michelle Yeoh cameo. #slashtag#bosslevel@jeffcannata@davechensky@Devindra
@jeffcannata@Devindra@slashfilmcast given Jeffs love for Lupin on the latest episode, I can highly recommend ‘The Intouchables’ with Omar Sy. Beautiful and heartwarming. Right in Jeffs wheelhouse I think. #slashtag
@davechensky, @Devindra, @jeffcannata: I submit to the offices of #slashtag and the /filmcast Lawrence Michael Levine’s BLACK BEAR (2020). My reasoning, to the tune of the unsullied:
In & Of Itself is a magic show about identity. It is a unique, amazing experience. Directed by Frank Oz. Recommended this a few months ago, but now it's more readily available to stream (US: Hulu, Canada: available to buy or rent lots of places). #slashtagyoutube.com/watch?v=_62BeX…
#slashtag Defending Jacob -- Apple TV+ mini series that I feel went largely un-buzzed about. Very solid entry into the crime genre with good performances.
#slashtag If you guys @slashfilmcast dug @OmarSy in Lupin, check out The Intouchables. Incredible heartwarming movie that features the main character briefly in a beard and for a few seconds we see a glimpse of what old man @jeffcannata will look like. Highly recommended.
#slashtag@jeffcannata@Devindra don't know if you guys have seen sex education on netflix, but I am getting some very ted lasso vibes. Can't believe I slept on this for so long!
@slashfilmcast I recommend "The Platform" available on Netflix. #slashtag. Saw Bacurau unsullied, but haven't heard the next episode where you all reviewed it yet. 🤐
@jeffcannata check out “LAs Finest” (Netflix) S01E08 at exactly the 20:40 mark. This is EXACTLY the reason why it’s not OK to share your neighbors trash bins. @davechensky@Devindra#slashtag. Show is OK, but this scene is amazingly relevant to your after dark episode on Jan 2
@Devindra@davechensky@jeffcannata Have you guys not watched Soul yet? It wasn’t in your top 10s and I don’t recall hearing it in your honorable mentions either which I think must mean you haven’t watched it yet, right? #slashtag
@Devindra listening to @slashfilmcast you mentioned watching Dora. I’ll #slashtag you the live action Dora movie that came out last year. I have a bit older kids, but they loved it. Having her awkward phrases in the real world is really funny
When New Orleans paramedics and longtime best friends Steve and Dennis are called to a series of bizarre and gruesome accidents, they chalk it up to a mysterious new drug found at the scene. ... SYNCHRONIC with Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan #slashtag
@Devindra@jeffcannata#slashtag I was surprised myself but my (almost) 3 & 5 years old loved the 1994 Jumangi tonight. It holds up so well and even more so when Williams shows up! Def recommend for the family that isn’t the same old stuff.
For my first #SlashTag for @davechensky@Devindra and @jeffcannata of the @slashfilmcast, I’d like to recommend S1 of the Snowpiercer series (on HBO Max; S2 starts Jan. 25 on TNT). It stays true to the themes and tone of the movie and really keeps you on the edge of your seat
A girl on a dating site told me to watch Kidding. Apparently @JimCarrey and @MichelGondry made an incredible show and put it somewhere I've never heard of. #slashtag Please watch it so I have someone talking to me about it.
I watched the documentary TIME on Amazon Prime Video tonight after seeing it at #1 on @davidehrlich’s Top 25 video and it’s quite remarkable. Highly recommended. #slashtagyoutu.be/kq6Hh07oLvs
#slashtag recommending the show taskmaster mostly @jeffcannata b/c it's hilarious & James Acaster is in a few seasons. I'd say check out season 7 on youtube - hope you enjoy!
@slashfilmcast an incredible documentary examining what it means to be an artist in the era of Trump, and having your work stolen from you by the alt-right, Feels Good Man is definitely a MUST watch of 2020. I implore you to check this doc out. Please. #slashtag
@jeffcannata Get your UNCLE FRANK watch on! Amazon Prime! Written and directed by Alan Ball with amazing performances up and down the cast list. Jeff...you will love this movie. Take it to the bank! #slashtag
@jeffcannata@Devindra@davechensky
Just saw Promising Young Woman in the theater last weekend (don’t worry, first showing of the day, had the theater to myself). When it’s available for digital rental I think you guys should talk about it.
#slashtag
I’m sure you guys have gotten this a ton of times but, just saw Wolfwalkers last night in appleTV+ and wow. Unbelievably beautiful! A simple and magica story told using animation like I’ve never seen before (it was my first Cartoon Saloon movie) Highly recommend!! #slashtag
@slashfilmcast don’t recall if you’ve discussed, but Wolfwalkers was a delight. Such a nice change from Disney/Pixar’s perfect, glossy (boring) animation style. Enchanting & kid-friendly. I don’t watch many animated features but I loved it. Similar vein, The Red Turtle #slashtag
Just watched the first episode of The Surgeons Cut on Netflix - “Saving Life Before Birth”. 55m mind blowing, beautiful doc that showcases unbelievable science and touching humanity #slashtag
highly recommended, especially for @jeffcannata , Staged, starring David Tennant and Michael Sheen. 15 episodes, all 15 minutes long, with some very surprising guest stars #slashtag
I watched Bacurau last night. What an intense movie. So glad I went in knowing as little possible about it. I still have so many questions! DM me or reply, Id love to talk about it. #slashtag@SlashFilmDaily
Just watched Don't F**k With Cats on Netflix. True crime doc about some pretty horrendous (but fairly delicately presented) subject matter. The way film itself becomes part of the story by the end is pretty stunning. Didn't think I'd be recommending it, but here I am. #slashtag
@davechensky@Devindra@jeffcannata#slashtag Don’t think I’ve heard any of you mention seeing the movie Amulet on Hulu. It’s a pretty dark but tells an interesting story with a strong message.
Nomadland - while somewhat simple, it is totally captivating; but an example of 'death of the author' with watching a non-covid film after Covid - the vulnerability of people to hardship and how these characters would be even more vulnerable now than in its 2011 setting #slashtag
