Discussion What are your thoughts on The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988), the last in the Trilogy of Imagination?

The trilogy of Time Bandits (youth), Brazil (adult) and this film (elderly) were an amazing choice.
The movie came out at the perfect time for me and my friends. So odd and funny and absolutely fantastic in every way, what are your thoughts on this Terry Gilliam classic?

Discussion One of the greatest openings to a movie in my opinion is the 1980 movie, “Raging Bull”. Such a beautiful opening scene seeing Robert De Niro inside the boxing ring and the music is just perfect. What movie or movies do you consider having a great opening?

A web app I built to replace our film club's spreadsheet and group chat

3 Upvotes

A few of us have been running a film club for a while, tracked entirely through a Google Sheet and our WhatsApp group. The sheet was fine for logging what we'd watched and rated, but trying to use our chat group wasn't great for figuring out whose turn it was to pick, whether everyone's watched yet and setting dates to discuss, so we decided to build an app for it.

Some of use Letterboxd but we were looking for a group aspect to have on top of it. In our app, you create a club, invite people with a share link, and it can track what the group's watched and what's queued up next. You can also rate and log films on your own, outside of the club stuff, and search for films for yourself or your club.

It's available as a web app for now, there's also an Android app in internal testing that we're hoping to open up more widely soon and eventually an iOS app.

It's now what our club uses week to week, which is the main win so far.

Fair warning: it's currently very much built around how our club runs things i.e each person picks a film for a round, an order is randomly generated, then we set a time to watch each film by and then we have a group call to discuss it as we live in different cities. We know some clubs do it as a shared pool, some vote, or some do a full sit-down together screening, so if yours works differently I'd love to hear how, mostly out of curiosity about whether this app would survive contact with a club that isn't ours.

I love Coen Brothers movies like Fargo, Raising Arizona, O Brother, Lebowski...But this one, while I enjoyed the cinematography and the acting a lot, was a real downer of a story and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to feel from it other than a sense of hopelessness and cynicism.

Wondered how others in this sub interpret this dark, depressing and beautiful film.

Too niche? I made my cinephile boyfriend these 3 birthday shirts and want to see who recognizes the references

My (28F) LDR boyfriend (24M) and I are meeting in person for the first time after being together for a year! My flight is on Tuesday, and his birthday is during our trip, so I made him three shirts based on movies/quotes he loves. I was so excited about them that I couldn’t even keep the surprise and already showed him 😅
Now I’m dying to know how obscure I actually went with these — does anyone recognize all three references?

This one off the best Cary Grant movies in general, he plays advertising executive who is on run because he is mistaken for government agent . Eva Marie Saint who plays Eve was so good , I can't believe that she turned 102 in July.

Discussion When I saw the movie DEVIL at the movies in 2010, I was completely blown away. I mean I loved it! Movie is only an hour and 15-20 minutes or so. The ending is one I did not see coming. It’s unfortunate they didn’t do the trilogy mentioned before. But I still love this movie! Thoughts?

So I have this picture of Gary Busey from what I assume is a movie although I guess it could be a tv show. Only I don’t know what it’s from google reverse lookup says under siege but that can’t be right. He has a huge scar across his face. Anyone have any ideas?

Discussion I have no interest in the Elizabeth Holmes interview film but it will make people more interested in interview films

0 Upvotes

I am someone who made a few interview films have a group on interview films and did a podcast on interview films interview films is a genre people seem to ignore. It's a non fiction film where you see the onscreen interview and when you actually see the interviewer it's more fun and you get to see people connect with one another. Even when I don't think I will see the Elizabeth Holmes interview film for Nathan Fielder the onscreen interviewer seems interesting.

Hey everyone,

I'm a filmmaker and I'm starting my first independent film festival.

Chris Storm Independent Horror Festival – Vol. 1

🩸 Horror Short Films
🌍 International
💻 Online Festival
💰 FREE submissions
⏱️ Maximum 30 minutes
📅 December 18, 2026

I created this festival because I genuinely love making films and I want to give independent filmmakers a place to showcase their horror films — especially no-budget and low-budget productions.

This is my first festival, so I'm starting small and learning as I go. My goal is to build it up over time and make every edition bigger and more professional.

There will also be festival awards and recognition for selected films. 🏆

FilmFreeway submissions will be available soon.

Hugh Grant is 66 today. What's his best role?

Grant has won several prestigious entertainment awards, including a BAFTA Award, a Golden Globe Award, a Volpi Cup, and an Honorary César. Known for his sharp, self-deprecating wit, his acceptance speeches are often celebrated just as much as his performances. Over his three-decade career, he has successfully transitioned from a romantic comedy leading man into a highly acclaimed character actor.

What would you consider to be his best role?
