A few years ago, in what may have been my last enjoyable interaction on Twitter, I asked for movie recommendations. And yall brought the HEAT.
Let's do it here!
What are some all-time movies that haven't won big awards and aren't super well known that I need to watch?

So the order for the US military to launch these deadly Caribbean boat strikes was straightforwardly illegal under US and international law, immoral under long established standards, and on top of that, terrible strategy.
Not maybe. Not got to check with a lawyer. Unambiguous. Blatant. Deliberate.

What's the best Bond movie with Roger Moore?

What's the best Bond movie with Roger Moore?
One of the best payoffs from the Craig era of Bond. A key Casino Royale introduction comes back four movies later in No Time to Die.

James Baldwin: "We are very cruelly trapped between what we would like to be, and what we actually are. And we cannot possibly become what we would like to be until we are willing to ask ourselves just why the lives we lead on this continent are so empty, so tame and so ugly."

Vesper was 22-23???? That's one of the wilder (retcon?) decisions I've seen. The actress was 26 at least, why not put her at 28-30 to make her having that job more reasonable and cut the age gap with a 38-year-old actor?

Bringing back bad versions of old villains instead of crating your own lore is such a bad look for Bond (Blofeld) and Star Trek (Khan). One of the main reason the Craig era is so mid, along with shoehorning in such forced and unsatisfying continuity.

Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

We prefer blunt headlines over mealy-mouthed "he-said-they-said."
Broad legal precedence holds that just following orders, colloquially known as the “Nuremberg defense” as it was used unsuccessfully by senior Nazi officials to justify their actions under Adolf Hitler, doesn’t absolve troops.
Trump Calls for Democrats to Be Put to Death for Accurately Describing Troops’ Constitutional Duties
Trump accused half a dozen Democratic lawmakers of sedition "punishable by DEATH" for calling on military members to uphold the Constitution.

The Wonder Mike verse of Rapper's Delight where he just suddenly starts going off about how much the food at his friend's house just completely fucking sucks is a Thanksgiving song.

Denis Villenueve is re-doing Game of Thrones S8 and wrapping it up in a net new S9. All the cast have to return.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.
