If you want to see something that feels truly cinematic, and utilizes incredible editing, filming, production design, music, and dance, you simply must watch this British classic about a ballet company adapting the Hans Christian Andersen tale of the same name.

Not only does this movie feel modern, despite being 80 years old, but the technicolor film processing makes all the colors look absolutely amazing. The ballet sequences use film techniques to transform dancers and sets into something that’s only suggested at by a live dance performance. Furthermore, while many big, song-and-dance movies from Hollywood’s golden era are extremely romantic and optimistic, this movie has a darker side, exploring pursuit of art at all costs, jealousy, and self doubt.

It’s a fantastic film!

Hello. Basically the title. I’ve seen Lady Terminator, though that’s less focused on martial arts. I’m looking for something along the same lines, especially if the movie is also in the horror genre.

Thanks in advance!

I pressed play on this one without knowing anything except it was about two lovers going on a murder spree. I really love Bonnie & Clyde-type stories so I figured “why not?”

This movie subverted my expectations at every turn. It’s so darkly funny and psychosexual. I don’t want to spoil anything, but if you enjoy movies like Psychos In Love or the films of Larry Clark, this definitely is for you.

I’m curious about a common response I see often in discussions about increasing density in San Diego: Whenever new projects are announced, be they ADUs or developing an entire block for a large apartment/condo building, many residents will cite that the infrastructure doesn’t support more building. Often I assume people mean “this will increase traffic,” but some people specifically name water, sewer, gas and electrical as concerns as well.

I don’t know much about city planning or infrastructure. Can anyone with actual experience in this area comment about the topic?

I would assume that getting a new building permitted would require someone to do this check first. If a new building is allowed, does someone sign off that the infrastructure can support it? What does that process look like?

Thanks for anyone who can opine on this.

Despite reading several posts about not putting too much flour into the compost pile, I got overconfident and loaded up my tumbler with like 10 pounds of old flour over the course of a week because I had to completely clean out my kitchen for a renovation.

Now the tumbler smells so sour and gross that I think about vomiting when I stand over it.

I know from previous posts that I could dump this on a tarp to dry it out and chop it up to increase airflow. Is it possible to fix this by just adding a bunch of browns and mix it well, without the step of emptying it out?

Take it from me: adding a lot of flour at once is a bad idea. My damn tumbler has smelled absolutely rancid for almost 2 weeks now. It doesn’t just stop after a few days. It sucks.

Just saw this on Tubi.

Matthew and Kevin McManus directed a pretty awesome low budget sci-fi movie called Redux Redux , which came out earlier in 2026. I enjoyed it so much that I looked up what else they made.

Funeral Kings is a coming-of-age comedy about 14 year old altar boys in a small town who get into some trouble, but it’s all in good fun.. except some times it isn’t (don’t watch this if animal death upsets you).

Anyway, thought it was worth suggesting because the only post I’ve seen about the movie is from over a decade ago.

I’m programming a triple feature of animated movies, but I don’t really want to play all-time classics, or well-known movies. When I hold these events I usually focus on “bad” or cult films, typically from the 1970s through the 1990s.

For this event I was thinking about playing Cool World with Brad Pitt, but I’m kind of stuck on what else to play since most animated movies I’ve looked at actually have pretty good reviews.

Any suggestions that fit my description above would be most appreciated. Thanks!

Edit: well, that’s way more suggestions than I even thought possible given the pretty narrow criteria. Thanks very much, everyone! I have a lot of trailers to review tonight.
