Asteroid City

Wow, this is a very Wes Anderson movie even for Wes Anderson. A television show about a movie about an alien stealing an asteroid. I have no words. Still, it was good. Amazing to see such as star-studded cast, mostly and very minimal rules. Jeff Goldblum as the alien made me laugh.
I’m a gigantic Anderson fan. I liked this one a lot, beautiful setting, obviously clever dialogue. Not in my top 3 Anderson’s, probably not top 5 either, but still, very good.
 
Should we lock this thread? The 2024 thread keeps floating to the top, we've had a 2025 thread going all year.

Probably. I added to it by mistake.
 
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. So many of the original case is back, including Michael Keaton in the Beetlegeuce role and Winona Ryder as Lydia Deetz and Catherine O'Hara as her mom Delia. The setting is the same Connecticut town (filmed in Vermont). Jenna Ortega is new as Astrid Deetz, estranged daughter of Lydia. Her father is dead. Willem Defoe is decent in a role made for him as a dead movie-star who played a detective and who now is a detective in the land of the dead. Monica Bellucci shows up too. I don't want to give anything away but the story is good and it all works pretty well. Lydia still sees dead people and has made a TV career out of it. Astrid thinks she's nuts. O'Hara is quite funny as a very eclectic artist. Winona Ryder is still just really beautiful, looks much better than in Stranger Things, despite bad hair. Recommended.
Gave it a shot tonight. My wife turned it off during the church musical.

Overall, horrific.
 
Just noticed that this thread died.

Come on peeps, let this thread die. We're halfway thru 2025 and there is a 2025 movie thread.
