THE TEACHER'S LOUNGE (2023, D. Ilker Çatac) is one long workplace anxiety attack. It starts as a mystery-- someone stealing the coffee money from the teacher's lounge-- and escalates into a study of prejudice, false accusations, and institutional fecklessness. #YabtM #reviews #YouTube #movies #film #cinema #CineMastodon #FilmMastodon #Germany #monly youtube.com/watch?v=7pXmbm71eg

Why didn't Disney just release digitally remastered versions of their original animated classics in cinemas? Just as many people would have paid to see them, if not more, and it would have cost a fraction of their woeful live action (or computer animated) remakes and se/prequels.

First time I watched 'Flow' was at the cinema, but upon second viewing I can now confirm that the internet was right about the effect that the film has on cats. Can also confirm that it remains a masterclass in visual storytelling, and a beautiful and tender tale about survival and found family that evokes thoughts and emotions without the use of any dialogue.

Such an incredible achievement by a small team, all done with open source software. People keep repeating how impressive it is that it was created in Blender for good reason, because it is legitimately one of the most stunning animated films that have been released in the recent years. 100% worth every bit of praise it has received.

Watching Tron (1982). The layers of primitive digital graphics and analog are amazing/ fascinating to watch. The hours and hours that must have gone into this movie...

Yeah, story and premise is still dorky but it is entertaining!

Stumbled over this video yesterday and it put me in mind to watch it. youtu.be/0XPY_fvim7w

I think the last time I saw it was in the 1990s. I haven't seen Tron Legacy yet. That's next and hopefully that won't be disappointing (sequels track records and all that).
