Christine (2016) with Rebecca Hall. I had known of the real story of Christine Chubbuck’s tragic final days, but the movie still hit hard. Hall’s performance was hauntingly phenomenal, she honestly should have gotten more recognition for it. It was a good film, but by the end, I just felt so gutted.

I highly recommend it, even if I don’t plan on watching it again for a very long time

The scene with the tank shooting the ground while it parachuted down to a lake is one of my favorite action setpieces ever. Whenever I see big action things in planes in movies like in Uncharted or The Gray Man or that one Mission Impossible I forget which one, it never satisfies me quite the way that A Team scene did. It felt like a perfect cartoon-meets-real-life style, which is a sweet spot that Marvel usually tries to aim for, but yeah, A Team has become totally overlooked.

It was way cooler than the Expendables, but like not as cool as John Wick. Or it was somewhere between the original Predator movie with the macho dudes in a crazy yet realistic action universe like Kick Ass

This is the Oscars performance from the year Slumdog Millionaire was nominated (this is the best quality vid I could find). I couldn’t quite remember how large scale this was from when I watched it the night it aired, but I remembered it being more than just A R standing alone and singing.

Edited: I found a much better clip after I posted this.
