Last movie you watched?

I have to admit, I got a bit teary eyed when during Spoiler Below

the final battle, the portals started opening and ALL the Marvel heroes started appearing, then afterwards, Captain America said those iconic words... 'Avengers...

...assemble!'

Went to see Hayao Miyazaki's The Boy and the Heron today. Without spoiling anything (since it's best to know as little as possible going into it), I think it would've made a very worthy swan song for him if he wasn't already working on his next swan song. (Glad it's replaced The Wind Rises as his grand finale, at any rate; that one's got some strong points, but a huge chunk of it is pretty much a Hollywood-ified biopic and I think it's his weakest film as a result.)

Also pretty sure it's the first 2D-animated film I've seen in a theater since The Simpsons Movie, which came out the same year I joined this forum. Good lord.

I finally watched my bluray of Wolfwalkers my bro got me a few Christmases back (in the set with Secret of Kells and Song of the Sea, both of which I have seen multiple times but I'd only seen WW once, in the theatre). I think it's the best of the three.

I got that same set last year and watched all three of them for the first time on the same day.* For me it's Song of the Sea all the way. (I mean, Wolfwalkers is near-perfect, too; I just thought it got a smidge too predictable towards the end.)

*With breaks, mind. I go outside sometimes.

Well, may as well make my presence known.

Lesbian Space Princess

I'm not going to blame you if you've never heard of this film. It's due for release in the US and Canada this Halloween. So, this would be a great time for me to tell you about it.

It's an Australian adult animated film about introverted and anxiety-ridden Princess Saira (voiced by Shabana Azeez from HBO's The Pitt), who has only one escape: her new love, aggressively extroverted bounty hunter Kiki (voiced by Bernie Van Tiel). Unfortunately, Kiki dumps Saira for being too needy.

But unfortunately for Kiki, she soon gets kidnapped by a gang of marauding incels known as the Straight White Maliens (voiced by Australian comedy troupe Aunty Donna). Their demand? Bring the most powerful weapon known to lesbian kind: Saira's royal labrys. The only problem? She doesn't have it.

With only a 24-hour window, Saira goes on an inter-gay-latic mission to rescue (and hopefully win back) Kiki and deliver the ransom. Along the way, she'll encounter a problematic ship (voiced by Richard Roxburgh from Mission: Impossible 2) and a new-found friendship with gay-pop runaway Willow (voiced by Gemma Chua-Tran).

This is a fun, colourful movie that makes no apologies about its premise and what it aims to be. A gay-latic adventure with a great message about self-acceptance. If you're a LGBTQ+ supporter like me (or LGBTQ+ yourself), I would recommend giving this film a watch. Just be aware of the short runtime and a scene involving a... well, I can't exactly don't know how to say it without getting into trouble.


I may as well mention the last movie I saw before this.

The Naked Gun (2025)

Normally, a film that serves as a reboot of a classic doesn't always go well. However, I'm very happy to say that this is a BIG exception!
Liam Neeson proves he has what it takes to carry Leslie Neilsen's legacy as Frank Drebin with great jokes, hilarious gags, and the rest of the cast are just as great including Pamela Anderson, Danny Huston, Paul Walter Hauser and Kevin Durand also delivering great performances.
Like Lesbian Space Princess, it also has a short runtime, but the previous Naked Gun movies also had short runtimes, so it fits here. I highly recommend this film. This type of comedy doesn't come often, especially if they ACTUALLY are funny!!
