Viggo Mortensen is starring in some exceptionally powerful movies...he's prime for receiving the Oscar. Probably this year or the next.

That reminds me, I should see Jauja. It's now on VOD here in UK so I can watch it that way. Looks stunning, it's described as slow cinema, so I'm there.

Also, I need Mad Max to be good because I liked Avengers, Furious 7 and Kingsman, every movie not those 3 have been awful. Just argh.

 

[Expendable.]

Ah, yes. Ex Machina should now be mostly in wide release. Seek it out.

Avengers is popular, so film sites like the one linked in the OP obviously won't like it.

They've gotta be contrarian and not include the most hyped movie of the year as a must-see in its own month.

I've seen it. If it was good, I would have included. It is far from that. This is a list of the best movies I've already seen or ones that have great promise, not a ranked order of the highest marketing budget.

Why isn't Paul Blart Ball Cop 2 on the list?

That was last month! It got all ten spots.

Far From Men sounds rad, why haven't I heard about this?

It's also on VOD now!

Jauja is so fantastic, really will stick with you.

I agree on the first part, but he could give zero fucks about Oscar movies. Doubt he'll ever get one.

Middling entertainment is the perfect qualifier for Avengers. I guess the other May movie I'll be watching will be Mad Max.

 

[Junior Asparagus]

Avengers, Mad Max, and Pitch Perfect for sure. Plus Ex Machina.

And I saw Far From the Madding Crowd already. It was enjoyable.

 

[Discotheque]

Mad Max: Fury Road is all that matters. It is everything.

It is life. It is love.

It will also likely flop, but the fact that I get to see this in theaters is so satisfying. Assuming miller actually pulled it off

Viggo been doing a lot of foreign movies lately. It helps that he speaks like 4 different languages but I want him to come back to cronenberg for one more too

Slow West seems interesting, not too psyched for the rest.

Tomorrowland just seems uninspired, especially for a Bird film.

 

[Toothless]

Mad Max: Fury Road
Tomorrowland
Poltergeist

Might catch Avengers a second time too.

Yeah I doubt the Academy would even nominate him since they mostly don't watch non-English language films anyway.

I do love these threads.

Thank you for making them.

 

[RusselUp]

From the madding crowd was great, I'm excited for tomorrowland as well. Some of them movies in the OP look great, but I don't know if they're out here in May.

 

[starchild excalibur]

Slow West and Mad Max for sure.
