Thanks to Tumblr and the Pedro/Oscar fangirl united front, I had no way of knowing there were more than just 2 men in this movie. Well done, fandom.

It’s about time I watch Triple Frontier again

[fangirlfilmclub]

What we watched: Triple Frontier

Who we watched it for: Oscar Isaac and Pedro Pascal

What we thought: Wait, Ben Affleck is in this movie?! (And Oscar Isaac's luscious locks will NOT be contained)

[fangirlfilmclub]

We’ll put it on the list!

Omg I watched the movie Argylle last night and it was so bad. Like so so so bad. I really feel like it would be a good candidate for @fangirlfilmclub to add to their list. Henry Cavill is in it, and Sam Rockwell who I love. But O.M.G. it is AWFUL. It started out ok, I was getting into it, but when the "big twist" arrived, I was just like, well that feels like a cop out. It leaned into some Kingsmen ridiculousness, and then put it on steroids. In the wrong direction. I experienced so much cringey second hand embarrassment for the actors, there were moments I had to look away. Now, if that's what they were going for, then high five, kudos, well done team go hit the showers, they nailed it. I can't recommend this one, unless you want to watch it to mentally and verbally throw rotten tomatoes at something. If you do, this is your movie. Anyway, it was bad

What we watched: Fright Night (2011)

Who we watched it for: David Tennant

What we thought: Colin Farrell really threw his entire vampussy into this movie.

[fangirlfilmclub]

there's no greater love than a fan watching their fav actor's entire filmography

[fangirlfilmclub]

What we watched: Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.

Who we watched it for: Chris Pine (Best Chris).

What we thought: An absolute delight from start to finish. 10/10, no notes

[fangirlfilmclub]

What we watched: Dirty Dancing - Havana Nights.

Who we watched it for: Diego Luna.

What we thought: Even Diego Luna, being the embodiment of sunshine and light could not make this movie remotely watchable.

And while this film is...shockingly bad, it is the first recommendation we've received. So, thank you for the rec, @aimmyarrowshigh! You said it was a tragedy and in that regard, it did not disappoint!

[fangirlfilmclub]

What we watched: Overlord.

Who we watched it for: 5 minutes of Joseph Quinn.

What we thought: Positively decent. An excellent (albeit quite juicy and horrific) example of what the Fan Girl Film Club is all about.

Update: we said we watched this movie for 5 minutes of Joseph Quinn, but if that bb boy has a cumulative 2 minutes of screen time, I would be shocked and delighted.

HOWEVER there was the unexpected added bonus of getting to spend the whole film with this guy:

Well done, Jovan Adepo. So glad you went on to really good projects like Watchman and 3 Body Problem so I don't have to watch this more than once for your beautiful face.

Our new recording platform does this super fun thing of picking out fun moments during recording with @that-wimpy-cowboy-doll and allowing me to download and share these gorgeous expressions with everyone.

Blessings on this new technology.

Sebastian being manhandled and liking it in The Covenant.

[fangirlfilmclub]

What we watched: Candyman.

Who we watched it for: Yahya Abdul-Mateen & Teyonah Parris.

What we thought: Nathan Stewart-Jarrett stole the show and there just weren't nearly enough bees.

PS: If you're playing the FGFC drinking game for every time Emily thinks an actor is dead while they're very much alive? Take a shot.

Reblog if you’ve ever watched a tv show or movie because of one specific actor in it.

[fangirlfilmclub]

The indiest little British indie. Harry Treadaway (and his HAIR) and bb Malfoy get into some decidedly weird hijinks in this little indie that could.

I (Emily) have such a soft spot for films like this. Exactly the kind of thing we started the podcast for.

Is it amazing, life-changing, Oscar-worthy? No. Absolutely not.

Were these actors likely paid $60 and a daily sandwich for the duration of the shoot? Yes, very likely.

Do you think they were still SO excited to have made it and have it to put on their reel and show their friends and family? Oh, you know it.

its just me and my fave certified rotten movies against the world

It. Is. A. Masterpiece.

100 FILMS IN 2015 → Jupiter Ascending (2015) ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ “I CREATE LIFE!! …And I destroy it.”

Here is my feeling about this movie: it is your garbage. It is garbage for you. “Is this how straight dudes feel at the movies all the time????” I hissed SEVERAL times during this movie. “Like someone carefully noted down your early pubescent fantasies and then threw 100 MILLION DOLLARS at them?” 

Top marks go to evil space royal Eddie Redmayne, whose breathy ennui is offset by bouts of mummy’s boy shrieking, all delivered with a “petite-mort” look on his face that suggests he is being fellated by eternity itself.

Someone on tumblr described it as the novel all girls wrote when they were 14 and frothing with a mix of swelling hormones and fading Disney fantasies, which I have to say is accurate to the point of pain. I mean, gorgeous Russian toilet scrubber finds out she is actually a space princess when a werewolf space marine rescues her from death at the hands of Greys? Pardon me, werewolf ANGEL space marine with a Sad because his wings are gone. And then everything is Alexander McQueen dresses and melodrama and bees, for some reason, and Eddie Redmayne doing his best heroin-addicted Voldemort impression.

The plot is this: the Wachowskis were given an extraordinary amount of money to make whatever the hell they wanted, and what they wanted to make is exactly what we all, secretly, deep down, want to make: the big-screen adaptation of that Stargate fanfic you wrote when you were fourteen that really went off the rails and began to inhabit its own universe, complete with original characters, wolf-men, and bees. That’s Jupiter Ascending.
