Watched WeWork doc on @hulu and holy sh*t, @davechensky was right about that ending. It feels so tone-deaf that it makes me question the entire thesis of the doc, including if the filmmakers even know what their message is? #slashtag
#slashtag You have to get past the dated tone & feeling of "look how exotic this is" but if @jeffcannata is into travel documentaries, then you should look up the 6 Cinerama travel docs that are on Kanopy. The footage from around the world, for 1950s-60s era, I think is worth it.
@jeffcannata@Devindra & @davechensky, I recommend checking out the new war drama from IFC Films, titled MOFFIE. One quote compared it to FULL METAL JACKET meets BEAU TRAVAIL, and I think that’s quite accurate. #slashtag
Have any of the Slashfilm guys checked out "Wayne" yet?
Ultra violent, heartfelt, funny and pointed teenage road trip adventure from the writer of Deadpool.
First season was amazing.
#SlashTag
Since Preacher is your favorite comic book of all time, @jeffcannata should watch the Preacher show. Highly recommended. All episodes streaming on Hulu. Tell us how it is on @slashfilmcast, maybe make it a Patreon exclusive. #slashtagpic.twitter.com/uTyA8vLElr
#slashtag Have you guys heard about #ShivaBaby? Came out last week. Emma Seligman’s script is peak discomfort comedy and her direction is terrific, ratcheting up tension with enough skill to earn comparison to “Uncut Gems.” And the lead, Rachel Sennott, is a star in the making.
@jeffcannata/@davechensky/@Devindra I will recommend to you the docuseries "Can't get you outta my head" from BBC (I noticed also available on Youtube). Compelling and thoughtful video essay about our times. #slashtag
@jeffcannata/@davechensky/@Devindra not sure if anyone's recommended DOOM PATROL on #slashtag, but I just finished S1 and it's phenomenal. It's the levels of weird/genre-defying that I wanted more of from WANDAVISION (which I did like most of). Definitely worth a binge.
#slashtag The Mauritanian. An important and true story. The atrocities committed at Guantanamo Bay in the name of...? Brilliantly acted and pulls no punches. A must watch.
@davechensky@Devindra@jeffcannata I have to recommend “It’s a Sin” on HBO Max. It’s a British drama from about a group of young adults growing up in London during the AIDS crisis. Wonderful characters, brilliant writing and great music. Definitely worth a watch #slashtag
The Mole Agent is a fun, sweet, super interesting (and Oscar-nominated!) documentary with a ton of relevant Slashfilmcast topics to chew on re: old age, family, documentary ethics, etc #slashtag
Our Friend (with Casey Affleck, Jason Segel, and Dakota Johnson) came out in 2019 and didn't get much buzz from critics despite an 85 on Rotten Tomatoes. It's very good, very sad, and worth watching. Rent it on iTunes/Amazon. #slashtag
@slashfilmcast#slashtag Just watched “Better Days” from Hong Kong nominated for the Oscars International film category. Much weeping was had. Would love to get your take! Stay for a mid-credit scene.
@jeffcannata it’s not really a #slashtag because you know it exists, but I’m here to remind you that the second season of Breeders just started on FX/Hulu. The first two episodes are fabulous.
#slashtag
Forgive me if you already discussed this (I am getting old and so is my memory) but I would highly recommend Supernova if you haven't seen it yet. Especially Jeff. This is right up his alley. Most of the movie is just two actors in a room talking.
I think @davechensky
has mentioned the Mitchell and Webb "Are we the bad guys?" sketch before, but have you guys seen their new TV series, "Back"? I thought the first season was their funniest series ever, the second season is dropping now on IFC and AMC+. #slashtagpic.twitter.com/enN2l2wPAR
Tonight’s movie watch was Hunter Hunter (Shawn Linden). I knew nothing but the title going in and I’m glad I didn’t. A tense and grizzly thriller with some dark twists and turns. Highly recommended. Currently playing on Hulu. #slashtagpic.twitter.com/99ku5y0FzP
@davechensky@jeffcannata@Devindra Haven’t listened to the latest episode so apologies if you’ve already seen it, but Invincible on Amazon prime is great. Only a couple episodes in but it reminds me a lot of the boys meet animated justice league. Funny and dark #slashtag
@slashfilmcast#slashtag The discussion about White Tiger and the difference in opinions about the movie's message was great. I was entertained and learned some things. Good movie for sure.
Are you guys checking out Superman and Lois. The idea of Superman battling villains while having to deal with teenage son drama is great to me. #slashtag
@jeffcannata you and your wife need to get on the Canadian show “Workin Moms”…not quite as hilarious as “I’m Sorry” but a great watch in a similar vein… #slashtag
#slashtag recommendation for @Devindra@jeffcannata@davechensky For All Mankind on AppleTV+ is fantastic. I can't believe it's not more popular. The first few episodes a bit slow but stick with it. Jeff, this is your jam!
Really enjoying Invincible so far. It feels like a cross between The Boys and One Punch Man. I did not expect the first episode to end like it did! #slashtag
#slashtag@jeffcannata INVINCIBLE on Prime is like the comic book come to life. Kirkman's writing, & Walker and Ottey's art is translated perfectly. The voice cast is star studded, yet well suited. It will be a fun series for new fans & old @Devindra@davechensky@slashfilmcast
#Slashtag@slashfilmcast I started @InvincibleHQ on @PrimeVideo, the first 3 episodes of which are available, and I'm enjoying it. It's from Robert Kirkman of Robert Kirkman fame and stars Steven Yuen, JK Simmons and many great others.
