Been working a lot from home, which means that I end up watching a lot of movies and TV shows lol
How To Train Your Dragon 2 is finally available at 1080p...watched it again and yeah, just as amazing as the first 3 times I watched it in theaters
Gorgeous movie with a great score. It's not the "classic" that the first movie was, and I do feel like it was largely setting up for the third installment, but I actually found the second more entertaining.
Also rewatched
Maleficent now that it's available and, well, I'm still mostly disappointed that it's not the almost "dark" film I thought it'd be from the trailers.
What else? I've watched
Divergent and
The Fault In Our Stars, as I've mentioned, and both are almost bearable considering what the books were. Reaffirms that Shailene Woodley is why we can't have nice things. I really thought the film style of TFIOS was cute, and the boy did a good job with his character, but the dialogue, the main character, and the story were cringey.
Only Lovers Left Alive is a really excellent movie with a great soundtrack and feel.
I also finally watched
Captain America 1 and 2 for the first time a few weeks ago. The first was boring but the second was fantastic.
Oh, and I did watch
The Giver. As a standalone movie it was okay - yes, it was cliche and predictable, but it was also pretty with some nice moments. Very typical of the romantic dystopian movies for teens niche that is being milked for all it's worth
Nothing at all like the book.
