@davechensky Usually I go out of my way to recommend movies or a certain TV show to @jeffcannata, but Kogonada's "After Yang" at Sundance 2022, wow. Made for YOU @davechensky. You definitely need to see this NOW. I could see this #1 on your Top of 2022 list.

Just got back from seeing the film Dangerous. It is the perfect funny bad movie. If you are into laughing at a shit movie it is a great time. It has the worst acting i have seen in years, im talking Chris Klein levels. Script is 10/10 bananas, all characters are insane #slashtag
I'd like to put All Light, Everywhere on the radar. Profound doc on Hulu about perspective and the relationship between cinema and weaponry tying in policing and surveillance #slashtag
I really enjoyed Archive 81. A compelling well-executed mystery with great atmosphere and tone throughout. Gets a little shaky towards the end, but overall ticked lots of boxes for me. @thefilmcastpod@davechensky@jeffcannata@Devindra#slashtag
@thefilmcastpod I believe someone brought up Tiny World before. If you enjoyed that, you really need to check out The Green Planet. The filmmaking is absolutely spectacular. #slashtag
@Devindra@jeffcannata please, please check out a 2021 Korean drama series called Beyond Evil (a.k.a Monster) before HBO commissions a remake. Supremely airtight screenplay and well executed whodunnit. If you liked #bongjoonho's #mother, do not miss this. #slashtag#BeyondEvil
Thank you @themunnyshot for posting about Maanaadu (2021) Dir: Venkat Prabhu. This film was a great time. A Run Lola Run/ Happy Death Day type time loop movie w/ escalating stakes and plenty of surprises. Passing on the recommendation. #slashtagpic.twitter.com/Aw8vyIkKA0
Hey @thefilmcastpod, check out My Mom, Your Dad (executive produced by Greg Daniels). This is an exceptionally fun, well thought out reality dating show that isn't cruel to its cast. The involvement of the kids adds a particularly interesting layer. #slashtag
@thefilmcastpod The new movie THE NOVICE is a great #slashtag rec, and one I’d like to hear @davechensky’s take on as a fan of Whiplash—it’s out now on VOD
It's infuriating how under-seen @TheUGRailroadTV is. It's an incredibly harrowing narrative, but required viewing.
Please, don't ever stop making art @BarryJenkins.
We need you. #slashtag
@davechensky heard you mention your enjoyment of time travel paradoxes during your Twitter office hours, and thought you might enjoy a movie I just discovered called Howard’s Mill. #slashtag
A movie which I don't see mentioned often but I really love is We Are Going To Eat You (1980) by Tsui Hark. Hearing people talk about cannibalism in Yellowjackets made me think of it the other day. imdb.com/title/tt008063…#slashtag
I’m obsessed with Station Eleven. I’m on my second watch through, and I’m finding myself somehow even more emotionally affected. Multiple weeps per episode. Also obsessed with the score by @Dan_romer. @jeffcannata - I think you’d like this show, a lot. #slashtag
@thefilmcastpod I heard Devindra dismissively mention Dexter: New Blood while discussing Showtime, but it’s better than you think. And it’s a limited series that has a definite conclusion. Give it a chance. #slashtag@davechensky@jeffcannata@Devindra
Be sure to check out Somebody Somewhere with Bridget Everett and Jeff Hiller on HBOmax. Such a great first episode! I can't wait to see where it goes. #slashtag
@davechensky@Devindra@jeffcannata First great new show of 2022 is Archive 81 on Netflix. It’s an adaptation of the podcast of the same name. It takes the mystery and intrigue done so well in the podcast while carving its own identity as a tv show. Worth watching. #slashtag
Archive 81 off to a good start. I liked the podcast, so this is my jam. Strange recordings, mysterious buildings, and cosmic horror. And cool to see Mamoudou Athie from the "OH Jerome, NO" segments of FX's Cake. Check it out. #slashtagpic.twitter.com/Oa040L79Lz
The House on Netflix. Erroneously labeled as a three part TV series, is a phenomenally weird, sometimes creepy, but always alluring animated film from the co-writer of Hunger. I was enthralled and entranced. Sucked in by its surrealist, cheeky and demented story. #slashtag
Hope the guys are going to give #Peacemaker a shot. First 2 episodes were great and it has maybe the greatest opening credits sequence in television history! #slashtag
@jeffcannata Got a #slashtag recommendation for you specifically: The Humans, available to stream on Hulu. I did not like this movie much personally--but I am CONFIDENT you will love it. I won't say anything else about it so you can remain unsullied.
“Bir Başkadır” (English title: “Ethos”) is a Turkish Netflix original series. It perfectly demonstrates the life in Turkey, the complexity of Turkey, and the separation between people with different social backgrounds. The acting, music and cinematography is excellent.

If you like political thrillers, watch *Azor* (MUBI), 1 of my Top 10 & a superb debut feature; a slow-boil that subverts expectations w/a clinical precision & chilling modern perspective, plus a sparse, snyth-tinged score that increases the unease until you're cooked.

Finished my rewatch of X-Men the animated series on Disney+ moving on to Iron Man: The Animated Series. Haven’t watched this since I was a kid, so much nostalgia. #Slashtagpic.twitter.com/EgXKbidsE8
#slashtag I know your all's mileage with the Kingsmen series has varied but I'd still highly recommend The King's Man. It is a peculiar war film for sure, but ends up having a stirring anti-war message that really elevates Kingsmen as a franchise in my estimation.
#slashtag After watching The Rescue, I felt like watching another documentary and came across 14 Peaks on Netflix. I can't recommend it enough. Nims, the Nepalese climber at the center of it, is absolutely fascinating and captivating.
Black Summer on Netflix is a _ride_. Really good acting punctuated by crazy action scenes and tons of "oners" that hold you in the scene. S1 was good but S2 was fantastic. #slashtag

Succession is a great TV show, but Landscapers on HBO is a great piece of art.
4 episodes long. Amazing, unique and surprising direction. Unsurprisingly great performances by fantastic actors. I believe it to be right in the @jeffcannata wheelhouse.
Go in blind.

Just watched the new doc Kurt Vonnegut: Unstuck in Time, an inspiring & heartbreaking film by @BobWeide. If you’re one of the people like me whose outlook on life was majorly shaped by reading Vonnegut, you must seek this out. #slashtag@VonnegutDoc
#Slashtag - Identifying Features.
A disregarded post apocalyptic side of the Mexican Border Crisis. @davechensky I think this could have been a contender of your 2021 best of list.
