Tina in Halloween 5 has the worst outfit I have ever seen in my entire god damn life like what the fuck is this bullshit right here

Funniest movie of the year

Was catching up on Big Brother (yes I watch that show lol), and… uh… I was not expecting furries to show up

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jul 12

It's good, but I can't see a lot of people enjoy this if you are not into Pavement

Joe Keery's method acting to perfect Stephen Malkmus is absolutely hilarious

Who cares about Superman when this is the REAL cinematic event of the weekend!

Or you could just watch the Clone Wars show anyways because it is a good show

I guess this wasn't too bad of a list, but honestly too many wild placements and picks that I honestly don't agree with all of them. They honestly have done better lists

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

I also didn't touch on all the recent movies from 2025 that haven't been released wide that got placed here that honestly annoyed me a fair bit. Give older movies some space. I feel like you are calling things too soon IndieWire!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

Um... okay.

I like this movie, but honestly I felt the POV shooting style to be too gimmicky and honestly not all that convincing. I think this has a place in a top 100 of the decade (so far), but respectfully this is not the best of the decade!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

HELL YEAH!!!!!!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

HELL YEAH!!!!!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

HELL YEAH!!!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

Not sure I would put this in the top ten, but yeah cool. Probably need to rewatch this again. I was way too hyped for this one and I think it affected my viewing lmao

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

I mean I like this one but I do not get why people consider this the standout of the Small Axes series when Mangrove is like so much better!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!

I mean this is a good movie, but holy crap we need to stop gassing this movie up! It's not that good and it certainly did not need to get a Best Picture nominee! Drive My Car and Decision to Leave got robbed of a higher spot!!! Throw it away!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

I think I gave this too low of a rating initially and I seriously need to give this another watch. Not sure this is a top ten good but alright

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

YES!!!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

YES!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

Absolutely boring arthouse junk and I resent his stupid decision for a never-ending theatrical run. Joe has done way better get this out of here!!!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

Honestly I like Jordan Peele as a director, but quite frankly I feel like a lot of critics are praising him way too much and I don't think he has yet to make something as good as Get Out. Like this is way too high of a placement what the hell!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

Hell yeah I love this one!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

Very surprised to see this so high up. Maybe the most surprising pick so far! Easily the best movie Wes made this decade so far! Not sure it should be within the top twenty though

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

HELL YEAH I LOVE THIS DEPRESSING AF MOVIE! Also should be higher

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

Too high but honestly glad to see this on here. Didn't care much for the first part, but this one honestly made me appreciate the first part more.

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

I agree this movie is great and should be in here. But like 24 is way too high of a placement. Certainly not better than Flow! Or Dune Part 2 I'm still salty about that!

David Weimer @artweimer.bsky.social · Jun 18

HELL YEAH!!!
