The Ninth Annual May Make-Your-Own Challenge - May 1-31, 2018 **List Thread**
 

May is just over a week and a half away, so it's time, once again, to take a look at your dusty, unopened box sets, your unwatched stacks of Blu-rays, DVDs, HD-DVDs, LDs, VHS or Beta tapes, your DVR, your Netflix queue, etc., etc., and decide what you think you should spend 31 days watching. Now's your chance to finally watch all the stuff that didn't fit, or that you just didn't get around to, during the other Challenges.

Since you choose your own Challenge theme, you make the rules.

There are however a few guidelines which everyone should follow.

Challenge Guidelines:

The Challenge runs from May 1 through May 31.

Sure, you can do your May MYOC in September if you want, but the list thread will only be stickied during May, so if you want anyone else to see what you're up to, please try to do it near those dates.

Please state your challenge theme and your challenge goal and rules (if any) at the top of your list(s) in the list thread so others can tell what you're doing.

Please don't duplicate an existing "Official" DVD Talk Challenge.

This guideline is mainly here so we don't subtract from participation in any of the other Challenges, and to encourage participants to focus on genres not already covered by a Challenge, but since everyone's "need to watch" list is different, and you're able to watch stuff that qualifies for one or more of the other Challenges during every other Challenge, you're free to narrow the focus of one of the broader "Official" Challenges.

For example; Say you only collect horror, then you could make your Challenge to watch just horror films, or just horror TV shows, or just zombie films, etc. Or if you have lots of unwatched Sci-Fi, then your MYOC could be just watch Sci-Fi movies, or watch Star Trek shows, or watch TOS, etc.

Here's Trevor's handy-dandy list of Challenges from his "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium thread:

DVDTalk Challenge Schedule

Since we already have Monthly "Unwatched Media Pile" Threads, please do not use that as a theme.

During past MYOCs, people weren't happy with this being used as a theme, and I tend to agree that it is a little lazy. So how about giving a little thought to the theme and coming up with something a little more creative, please?

Re: The Ninth Annual May Make-Your-Own Challenge - May 1-31, 2018 **List Thread**
 

PRE-CHALLENGE 1970's MOVIES (April 15-30)



ACTION/ADVENTURE

Pray For Death (1985) - Ninja movies were really popular in the early 80’s. Today, this flick seems pretty hokey and the fight scenes don't hold up. But it was really cool back then.


COMEDY

Charlie Chan and the Curse of the Dragon Queen (1981) - It's amazing this great cast can make a film that's such an awful waste of time. The movie centers around #1 Grandson who's a bumbling fool. Richard Hatch is painfully unfunny. All the slapstick humor falls flat. On the positive side, it has some really cool footage of 70’s San Francisco. Michelle Pfeiffer looks so young.

High Spirits (1988) - An entertaining, lightweight comedy/horror flick. Some of the jokes fall flat, and a few special effects don’t hold up well. But the gothic castle sets are really amazing. And it has a great cast.

Just One Of The Guys (1985) - One of the Top 10 Comedy Movies from the 80’s. For teenage boys, the scene with Joyce Hyser’s boob flash is a close second to the infamous Phoebe Cates topless pool scene from Fast Times At Ridgemond High.

Porky’s (1981) - The father of the modern teen sex comedy. They don’t make them like this anymore.

Porky’s II: The Next Day (1983) - Some good gags. Not as funny as the original. But there’s a few memorable scenes.

Porky’s Revenge (1985) - I’m glad that the original cast stuck together for all 3 movies. But this finale is mostly forgettable. The gags are stupid and there’s hardly any laughs.

Seems Like Old Times (1980) - I wish Chevy Chase and Goldie Hawn made more movies together. They had great comedic chemistry.

Valley Girl (1983) - This is the first time I’ve seen the movie since it came out. It’s the perfect 80’s time capsule. The fashion, dialogue, and music and all take me back. Nicholas Cage looks so young, and Elizabeth Daily was freakin' hot.


DRAMA

The Last American Virgin (1982) - This forgotten gem is the antithesis of the John Hughes feelgood teen comedies. A movie where the good guy gets his heart broken. It hit home hard for every geeky teen (like me) who had a crush on a girl outside their league. An awesome soundtrack with The Cars, Journey, Lionel Ritchie, The Police, U2, Devo, Oingo Boingo and REO Speedwagon.

Little Darlings (1980) - Jailbait girls hold a contest to see who's first to lose their virginity at summer camp. Looks like a comedy, but it turns out to be a coming-of-age drama. Kristy McNichol and Tatum O’Neal were huge teen stars in the 70’s-80’s.


HORROR

Friday the 13th (1980) - This classic slasher almost feels like a murder mystery with a faceless killer who isn’t revealed until the final moments. It’s mild compared to 80’s standards with most killings happening offscreen and very little nudity. Still holds up well today as one of the best slashers ever.

Friday the 13th: Part 2 (1981) - A great sequel with more onscreen killing and more T&A. I really like the young fast sackhead Jason, which sets this apart from the other sequels.

Friday the 13th: Part 3 (1982) - The first movie with a traditional Jason Vorhees. He’s big, slow, methodical, unstoppable and wearing a hockey mask. Originally in 3-D, this movie has some cool in-your-face effects. The eyeballs are a classic. It’s also a more laid back 80’s-style popcorn flick than the previous movies.

Friday the 13th: Part 5 (1985) - I hated this movie when I first saw it back in the 80’s. It’s grown on me over the years. But it’s still one of the weakest Friday movies.


SCI-FI/FANTASY

Miracle Mile (1989) - Nuclear War was a big thing in the 80’s. This is one of those forgotten movies that everyone loved. It’s a great film. Check it out if you get a chance.

My Science Project (1985) - I loved this movie. I rented it from the video store dozens of times. My friends and I would frequently quote the hilarious one-liners from Fisher Stevens. It was one of the biggest movies of my teens. But I don’t think I’ve seen it since the 80’s. It’s one of those movies that seems to have been forgotten over the years. Watching it again was a blast.


80's RELATED

Cobra Kai: Season One (2018) - I couldn't imagine this would be such an awesome show. I've seen the original movies so many times. It was a blast watching these characters 30+ years later. Easily my favorite show of the year.

Take Me Home Tonight (2011) - Someone made a list of everything they remember from the 80’s, put it in a blender, and out popped this movie. It’s a collection of random nostalgia. Outside that, I'm not sure why the movie took place in the 80's. The story would have worked just fine in a modern setting.

<H3>Oh, Canada!</H3>
Films acknowledged as Canadian, not just Americans shooting in Canada for budget reasons.
Each film marked with the Canadian flag has an obvious indication that it is a Canadian setting... flag, or city/town name or other indications.
</div>

May 05:
01. Porcupine Lake (2017) ☼ - my iTunes library https://i.imgur.com/oiFYEjx.jpg (Toronto and other locations mentioned and a Canadian flag visible in one scene)
02. The Sweet Hereafter (1997) ☼ - Library DVD https://i.imgur.com/oiFYEjx.jpg (No reference to any location names but BC license plates visible, characters that say 'Eh', Tragically Hip heavily used in the soundtrack, including an eerie remake sung by the young Sarah Polley herself in the closing credits and a kid running with a Canadian flag on his snowsuit.)

May 08:
03. Ice Blue (2017) ☼ - Theater Made right here in Calgary, but no indication of Canada at all. The only city mentioned in the movie was Seattle. So, boo for that, but good movie none the less.

May 10:
04. Happy Birthday To Me (1981) - my Blu-ray No indication of where this is set but the father at one point says he has to go to Calgary. Half points, but no flag.

May 11:
05. Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner (2000) ☼ - Library DVD https://i.imgur.com/oiFYEjx.jpg Well there's nothing more Canadian than an Inuit movie set in the arctic and filmed in the Inuit language. Amazing accomplishment! No wonder it's on almost everyone's top 10 Canadian films list.

May 12:
06. Colossal (2017) ☼ - my Blu-ray
07. My Bloody Valentine (1981) ☼ - my DVD

May 13:
08. 88 (2015) ☼ - my Blu-ray
09. Stories We Tell (2012) ☼ - Library DVD https://i.imgur.com/oiFYEjx.jpg More or less a documentary about Sarah Polley's mother, told from the perspective of the surviving people in her life, both in Toronto and in Montreal. Shows how everyone has their own perspective of life events and rarely do any two people see things the same way.

May 23:
10. My Winnipeg (2007) ☼ - Library DVD https://i.imgur.com/oiFYEjx.jpg strangely weird, but in a good way. 100% open about being Canadian, obviously.

May 26:
11. Wilby Wonderful (2004) ☼ - Streamed (Roku: Kanopy) https://i.imgur.com/oiFYEjx.jpg Wilby is the name of a small island town on the Canadian east coast. Can't identify yourself as Canadian any better than that!
12. Mon oncle Antoine (1971) ☼ - DVD https://i.imgur.com/oiFYEjx.jpg

May 27:
13. Claude Jutra: An Unfinished Story (2002) ☼ - DVD A documentary about the life of the director of Mon oncle Antoine
14. A Chairy Tale (1957) (9:55) ☼ - DVD An early experimental short film by Claude Jutra.

May 28:
15. Hockey Night (1984) ☼ - Streamed (Roku: Kanopy) https://i.imgur.com/oiFYEjx.jpg

1st:
1. Strange Behavior (1981)-Commentary by Michael Langhlin, Bill condon, Dan Shor & Dey Young: It was cool to hear how it was making an "American" movie in New Zealand with an Aussie/Kiwi crew. Although, from Langhlin's comments, it was a little hard to believe how so many esteemed film critics & filmmakers praised this film (Pauline Kael & Woody Allen saw this? Really?)
2. Directed by Sidney Lumet: How the Devil Was Made (2008) [Before The Devil Knows You're Dead]-I miss Lumet. Nice to see how accepting he was on shooting digital.
3. In the Beginning Was the End: The Truth About De-Evolution (1976) [Island of Lost Souls-Criterion Collection]-I never knew this was on there!
-----------------------------------------
2nd:
4. Good Time (2017)-Commentary by Josh and Benny Safdie, producer Sebastian Bear-McClard, and actors Taliah Lennice Webster and Buddy Duress: Not nearly as chaotic of a track since so many are involved. For me, the highlights involve all the criminal tricks/tactics that the filmmakers knew of. But the biggest antidote was the consent of putting an episode of COPS to use!
5. The Artist: The Making of an American Romance (2011)/The Locations of The Artist (2011) [The Artist]-This looked like it was going to be standard EPK material, but once Wade Major entered the picture (I miss hearing him talk about film) it redeems itself. The Locations featurette was more up my alley since I'm into that sort of thing. Too bad it ended very abruptly.
-----------------------------------------
3rd:
6. Downfall (2004)-Commentary by Oliver Hirschbiegel: I've listened to this commentary before, but I caught so much more on this re-listen. Very little technical talk here (Hirschbiegel explaining his hatred for movie-lighting) but as far as historical talk goes, this track really shines well.
-----------------------------------------
4th:
7. One for the Fire: The Legacy of 'Night of the Living Dead' (2008): Lots of good, essential stuff to find out here. The problem is that it's oddly structured. Talking about the cast, talking about the production company, talking about the cast, talking about the release, and going back to talking about the cast again? A chronological timeline was needed. Aside from that, I loved the Duane Jones segment and it was good to hear about the copyright situation.
8. Doctor Strange (2016)-Commentary by Scott Derrickson: Even though Derrickson hardly takes a breather, it's still pretty much a yawn-inducing track with Derrickson going over too much of the themes. At least we've got a Marvel commentary that explains how so many of the Stan Lee cameos were done.
9. The Making of 'They Live' (1988)-Probably the most entertaining 8-minute featurette I'll ever see. Most of it is spent on the big fight (Bonus points for that) but there's also Carpenter's plot-synopsis which makes the movie sound better than it actually is!
-----------------------------------------
5th:
10. This Stuff'll Kill Ya! (1971)-Commentary by Daniel Krogh: Despite not having seen the film in over 20 years, Krogh still came prepared for this track. Couldn't believe Larry Drake and Tim Holt were in this!
11. You're So Cool, Brewster! The Story of Fright Night (2016)-I admit to doing a lot of skipping during Part 2 (That movie's just so bland to me) but everything covered in Part 1 gets an A+. Well, if there was just ONE thing that I wish was talked about was the sound design. The monstrous screams of pain that I hear in that movie are among the most unforgettable in horror cinema. Just a little shoutout to that department would have been a little nice.
-----------------------------------------
6th:
12. "Oh, Hi Mark: Making a Disaster/Directing a Disaster" (2017) [The Disaster Artist]-Just standard stuff. I hope the commentary adds more (I'll get to it later in the month)
-----------------------------------------
7th:
13. Otis (2008)-Commentary with Director Tony Krantz and Writer Erik Jendresen: Even though the filmmakers say right off the bat that this film is a satire, the whispery monotone delivery by them gave me the impression of something darker. Oh, and Krantz REALLY loved his lead actor.
14. The Evil Dead: One by One We Will Take You - The Untold Saga of the Evil Dead (2007)-Comes up a little short by not having Sam and Bruce around. Still though, it's quite refreshing to see a documentary that (Brilliantly) relies on outtakes rather than still photos!
-----------------------------------------
8th:
15. The American (2010)-Commentary by Anton Corbijn-I only got to listen to half of it. Even though I like the movie, I already need a break from dry commentaries.
16. Deranged Chronicles: The Making of “Deranged” (1993)-Although there's a few other participants involved (The Director & Producer) the segments with Tom Savini providing commentary on BTS footage shot by the producer was really enjoyable.
-----------------------------------------
9th:
17. The Rocky Horror Treatment (1981): Just take away all the Shock Treatment promotional material and you're left with some (Early) swell footage of the early days of Rocky mania.
18. Mysteries of Love (2002) [Blue Velvet]: Great, comprehensive documentary (My favorite so far) This could also be the most open I've seen Lynch be when it comes to the making of his films.
-----------------------------------------
10th:
19. Dawn of Sound: How Movies Learned to Talk (2007) [The Jazz Singer]: Been a while since I've seen this. Longer than I thought it was (In a good way) and I keep on forgetting that sound films existed before 1927!
-----------------------------------------
11th:
20. Acting 'Carrie' (2001)/Visualizing 'Carrie' (2001): My second time seeing these and they still remain as perfect docs/featurettes. The only problem is I keep meaning to start with "Visualizing" first and "Acting" second.
-----------------------------------------
12th:
21. Elvis Presley: The Searcher (2018)-As of now, this is the ELVIS documentary to top.
22. Superior Firepower: The Making of 'Aliens' (2003)-I still have never seen any of these ALIEN documentaries yet! Felt like starting with this one. Nice to hear what a hardass Cameron is capable of being. Never knew that Michael Biehn could be so hyper in interviews...and RIP Bill Paxton.
-----------------------------------------
13th:
23. Da Hammer: Interview with Fred Williamson (2003) [1990: Bronx Warriors]: 43-minute interview with Williamson going over through most of his entire career (Explains the running time) For cult-movie fans, this one's a keeper mostly for his recollections of working with the Italians.
24. Now You See Him: The Invisible Man Revealed! (2000)-Standard Universal Horror doc. But at least this one gives a little more info on James Whale.
-----------------------------------------
14th:
25. Ed Wood: Look Back in Angora (1994)-I can't help that I've been on an Eddie Wood kick lately. This documentary tends to be chaotic with all the quips (Presented via Wood's films) but any Ed Wood documentary that has Love Feast in it will always be among the best.
26. Too Commercial for Cannes (2006) [A History of Violence]-Since it's Cannes week, felt like giving this a look. Too bad it was so incredibly short!
-----------------------------------------
15th:
27. The Making of 'The Terminator': A Retrospective (1992)-Convo between Cameron and Schwarzenegger. Felt like it was 3 minutes long. I'm really surprised no recent documentaries haven't been made about this movie yet.
28. The Making of 'Requiem for a Dream' (2001)-Man, I'm really starting to love commentary tracks that are spoken over BTS footage. It was also cool to get glimpses of the recordings of what just might be the most recognizable theme music of the 2000s.
-----------------------------------------
16th:
29. Fly Trap: Catching a Classic [The Fly]-Way too brief. Even for the covering of three films of a franchise.
30. The History of 'Cruising'/Exorcising 'Crusing'-Unlike ^that one. This was much to my liking. Interesting to hear the on-set friction created by protestors.
-----------------------------------------
17th:
31. Deadpool (2016) Audio commentary with director Tim Miller and Deadpool co-creator Rob Liefeld + Deadpool: From Comics to Screen... to Screen-Once again, the discussion about Stan Lee's cameo (In both the track & documentary) ends up being the stealer for me.

A DVDTalk "Make Your Own Challenge"
on Films and TV episodes
with BATMAN
or other DETECTIVES, VIGILANTES, and ANTI-HEROES
that FIGHT CRIMINALS
in DARK UNDERWORLDS

GOALS and GUIDELINES:
Primary directive is to have fun and get some late night/early morning watches of both Movies and TV s. Each movie or episode is counted as a one entry.Movies and TV episodes must involve BATMAN or possess some of his prime characteristics. In other words, DETECTIVES, MASKED AVENGERS, UNDERCOVER CRIME FIGHTER, ANTI-HEROES or VIGILANTES (by IMDb keywords).
The films and shows can also involve CRIME INFESTED CITIES influenced by or resembling GOTHAM.
Series can be viewed by season or just random individual episodes (planned series include KNIGHT RIDER, GOTHAM, MIKE HAMMER, THE PUNISHER, etc.)

MAY 1st
01. BATMAN:THE MOVIE (1966) :2star:
Would have enjoyed this as a kid because I recall being thrilled by Sea World's DC Superheroes water-skiing extravaganza, which borrowed heavily. The Adam West <i>Batman</i> wears out its welcome when stretched out to feature length. It's clearer to me than ever that Joel Schumacher and his Batcasts were doing up the camp in homage to this. This isn't as entertaining as either of his movies, which I have grown in fondness for through the years. But Holy catnip, Batman! Former Miss America Lee Meriwether fills out her Catwoman costume flawlessly. Possibly my favorite interpretation. She gets sexy time with West in her dual role as the Russian journalist, Kitka. 4.7/10

MAY 3rd
02. BLACK SCORPION (1995) :3star:
This Corman-produced action flick has an asthmatic villain known as The Breathtaker, but it's Amazonian beauty Joan Severance in the lead that takes my breath away. I remember snagging a Playboy featuring her on the cover to promote Zalman King's <i>Red Shoe Diaries</i>. Those eyes...those legs...that rear. The movie understands the importance of costumed heroines donning hooker boots and thongs (thank you, nineties). She's a B movie bombshell if ever there was one. You're never going to see Black Widow naked and straddling anybody in a Marvel movie, so keep dreaming. 6.6/10

MAY 4th
03. KNIGHT RIDER:"KNIGHT OF THE PHOENIX PART I" (1982) :2star:
I'd never seen this debut episode featuring the origins of Michael Knight and his witty Trans-AM, KITT. Surprised to see a cameo by Oscar Goldman himself, Richard Anderson, when facially wounded Michael Long is selected to be rebuilt in the likeness of Michael Knight (David Hasselhoff). The KITT antics are pretty solid, especially when Knight falls asleep at the wheel. This actually predates Stephen King's <i>Christine</i>, but with King being such a television fan, I have to imagine him watching <i>Knight Rider</i> while pumping out drafts of that book. Everything the series would become known for is on full display here, including a pair of sexy ladies of the eighties, Pamela Susan Shoomp and Phyllis Davis. 5.8/10

MAY 5th
04. SUICIDE SQUAD: HELL TO PAY (2018) :2star:
The DC Animated Universe has a slight edge over their live action films of late, and the grittier and sleazier R-rated approach is a direction that I will continue to support. Marvel does pretty well in this arena too, when you consider <i>Deadpool</i> and some of the Netflix Originals. As comic book movies of every creed continue to dominate our culture, it seems futile to resist. You've got to forge your own path through the gauntlet sometimes. it will be fascinating to see where it all leads. Some of these alternate universe characters are pretty cool, but I need to catch up on my actual comic book reading to stay afloat at times. Had a buddy doing Cliffs Notes as we watched. Killer Frost and Harley Quinn deserved better animation here, but I get some legit kicks out of this Squad's commitment to brutality and mayhem. 5.9/10

MAY 6th
05. VENGEANCE: UNLIMITED: "CRUEL AND UNUSUAL" (1998) :4star:
Gone too soon Michael Madsen TV vehicle has one of the coolest pilots I've watched in some time. Madsen is a true dark knight, and he will get you the payback that the courtrooms failed to give you. Love the appearance of character actors that you love to hate, Gregg Henry and Ray Wise. 8.4/10

06. ACTS OF VENGEANCE (2017) :3star:
Taking a gander at his recent credits, it seems safe to say that Banderas is doubling-down on DTV action. He makes a good call in teaming with Isaac Florentine for this entertainingly hardcore revenge flick. 7.2/10

MAY 10th
07. ACTS OF VIOLENCE (2018) :2star:
Bruce Willis is pretty much foregoing the concept of character development with these extended cameo paycheques, and at this point I think Steven Seagal clocks in more screen time per film. Cole Hauser is probably the most interesting and credible of the cutout characters here. It's new levels of pulp mindlessness, but I was somehow able to have enough fun with the stupidity and gratuitousness to keep it rolling through the lame ass end credits. 4.2/10

MAY 14th
08. STILL OF THE NIGHT (1982) :2star:
Robert Benton takes a stab at a Hitchcockian thriller with mixed results. Technically, it's a bit wooden considering the impressive talent behind the camera. Nestor Almendros makes great use of light and shadow, and editors Jerry Greenberg and Bill Pankow cut the suspense scenes with particular flair. Not surprisingly, they would team up on several of DePalma's better films of the eighties. More serious faults are found in the screenplay and characterizations. I think to make this a more effective noir mystery Scheider's character needed a layer of darkness or a streak of corruption. His psychiatrist is a bit too clean and he's a total "momma's boy". He barely crosses the line with Streep's femme fatale and their whole relationship lacks fire. Streep looks more feminine than we've come to expect, but sexiness might be her biggest acting challenge. She also seems pretty uncomfortable with those cigarettes. Is that intended to be metaphorical or Freudian? Sometimes with these loopy psychodramas, it can be difficult to tell. 5.6/10

MAY 17th
09. BLOOD AND WINE (1996) :3star:
Florida is my favorite setting for movies, especially those of the crime and neo noir genres. It's that beauty mixed with tackiness that I find so appealing and I think I'll be exploring the orange state more this year---consider that my own little "Florida project". Speaking of orange and sunshine, this one I mostly recommend for Newton Thomas Sigel's photography. He's got to be among the most unsung heroes in the DP department. Check that credit list of his. Nicholson, Caine, and Lopez all come ready to play here and they're pretty fun to watch. I think the biggest problem is that Stephen Dorff comes across as completely unlikable and uninteresting. Couldn't get behind him at all. I was rooting for Jack all the way. 6.2/10

MAY 19th
10. THE FOREIGNER (2017) :2star:
Fiercely underwhelming revenge flick from Martin Campbell that becomes a pale knock-off of <i>First Blood</i> in its final act. Jackie Chan is in one-note forlorn mode, and I could have used a bit of <i>Drunken Master</i> or <i>Supercop</i> instead. 4.4/10

MAY 21st
11. DARK CRIMES (2018) :3star:
So, following this I could more easily picture Jim Carrey in a Lars von Trier film, and at this point I think that has a better chance of getting made than the further exploits of <i>Ace Ventura</i> (if I'm not wrong, this is the first time Carrey has played a "detective" since <i>When Nature Calls</i>). I found it pretty fascinating for the most part and that's likely because I have a penchant for catatonic and bleak European cinema. I fell asleep in my attempt to get through <i>The Avengers: Infinity War</i>. Didn't feel any emotional connection to those characters and I'm just bored by the triviality of it all. There is a scene here where I felt the full weight of Carrey's grief toward the death of a family member. For a film that seems to be intentionally eschewing emotions and keeping its audience at a distance, I think that moment worked beautifully. 7.4/10

2/6 - Time

*= first time viewing
blue= personal BluRay
dark red= personal DVD
green= streaming
orange= theatrical presentation
purple= borrowed or rented BD/DVD

May 1st
1. Mind - The Good Place: 1.10, "Chidi's Choice" / 1.11, "What's My Motivation" (2017 / United States / Netflix)*
1. Mind - The Good Place: 1.12, "Mindy St. Claire" / 1.13, "Michael's Gambit" (2017 / United States / Netflix)*
Eleanor (Kristen Bell) is a person wrongly sent to The Good Place. She teams up with her soulmate Chidi (William Jackson Harper) to learn ethics and earn a place in her new world. Under Chidi's guidance, Eleanor starts expanding her mind and building an ethical framework while pointing out the applications of various philosophies. The show expertly includes the broad strokes of Big Thoughts without being boring.
2. Marvel Cinematic Universe - Iron Man (John Favreau, 2008 / United States)
The MCU's first outing is utterly exhilarating. Robert Downey Jr. imbues Tony Stark with a charismatic narcissism that could be grating if the film wasn't so much fun. While this isn't my favorite superhero movie (that would be 1978's Superman), it's a great one. I've decided to do some MCU rankings at the end of my list which should be a fun exercise.

May 2nd
3. Reality - I Feel Pretty (Abby Kohn & Marc Silverstein, 2018 / United States)*
Amy Schumer plays a self-conscious woman who bangs her head in a SoulCycle accident and wakes me believing that she has her ideal body. It's a silly premise but explores the intersect of reality and perception in a fun, frothy way. Schumer's character gains confidence from her skewed perception and reshapes her reality - just not in the way that she thinks.
4. Soul - Pushing Daisies: 1.1, "Pie-lette" / 1.2, "Dummy" (2007 / United States)
A baker (Lee Pace) has the ability to reanimate dead things, but his power comes with several caveats. He teams up with a knitting detective (Chi McBide) to solve crimes and falls in love with his reanimated childhood friend (Anna Friel). Yes, there's a lot of quirk stuffed into those two sentences, but it's a feature, not a bug. These first episodes set up the situation and gently hint at the moral conundrums that will come up later.

May 3rd
5. Soul - Pushing Daisies: 1.3, "The Fun in Funeral" / 1.4, "Pigeon" (2007 / United States)
The show tackles the ethics of its central conceit. If Ned (Lee Pace) uses his powers to keep someone or something alive for over a minute, someone or something nearby dies in its place. Chuck (Anna Friel) finds one that her being alive caused another person to die, and both she and Ned have to deal with this. The mysteries here are fun, darkly quirky affairs!
6. Time - Edge of Tomorrow (Doug Liman, 2014 / United States)
Tom Cruise is a reluctant soldier caught in a time loop that has him reliving storming a beach against an alien force. He teams up with Emily Blunt who had the ability but lost it after a blood transfusion. The film postulates the ramifications of us encountering an alien menace who relate to time in a different way. Time becomes an unexpected ally against an enemy who can manipulate it for their own ends.

May 4th
7. MCU - The Incredible Hulk (Louis Leterrier, 2008 / United States)
The MCU's second feature doesn't have as tight a script or as compelling characterizations as the first, but it's still an exciting ride. I'm especially fond of Banner's time in Brazil and the Harlem showdown. I'm a fan of Edward Norton, and he brings a great sadness and intensity to Banner that I really like. Tim Roth starts the trend of MCU villains who should be more interesting than they are, and Liv Tyler begins the trend of love interests with nothing to do but react.
8. Soul - Cold Souls (Sophie Barthes, 2009 / United States)*
Paul Giamatti plays Paul Giamatti, an actor who's falling apart while playing Uncle Vanya. He undergoes a procedure to extract his soul and has to team up with a soul-mule when it is taken by an Russian soap opera star. It's a fantastically funny film that explores what the soul is and what part it plays in our lives. One of my favorite aspects is how different the souls look after being extracted.

May 5th
9. Time - Kodachrome (Mark Raso, 2017 / United States / Netflix Instant)*
Jason Sudeikis plays a music executive on the ropes who agrees to accompany his estranged, dying father (Ed Harris) to develop his last batch of Kodachrome film before Kodak stops manufacturing the dyes. The film ties Harris's characters impending death to the end of a technology. Several clocks are ticking as the two (and Elizabeth Olsen as Harris's nurse) complete their road trip.
10. MCU - Iron Man 2 (Jon Favreau, 2010 / United States)
Iron Man's second outing isn't as auspicious as his first, but it's a serviceable sequel that explores the toll Tony's new powers and status are taking. It doesn't help that he's dying due to the hardware in his chest. Pepper Potts develops some neuroses, and Happy gets some screen time. Whiplash is a better villain than the Abomination, and the MCU starts to take shape.

May 6th
11. Space - Lost in Space: 1.2, "Diamonds in the Sky" / 1.3, "Infestation" (2018 / United States / Netflix Instant)*
Netflix's reimagining of the campy television series is something of a gritty reboot, giving the characters a lot of dramatic baggage and the plot a lot of layers. I'm a sucker for competent-people-address-problems shows, especially those in the sci-fi genre, so I'm really loving this.

May 7th
12. Power - Sweet Baby Charlie (a.k.a. The Sadist) (James Landis, 1963 / United States)
I watched this last month for the Exploitation challenge and immediately purchased it! The premise is simple: a trio of teachers are tortured by two psychopaths with a gun. The duo have a monopoly on power and ruthlessly toy with the trio. I'm not comfortable around guns so this is one of my worst nightmares.

May 8th
13. MCU - Thor (Kenneth Branagh, 2011 / United States)
Out introduction to Thor is hokey, high-concept fun with a dash of Shakespearean tragedy. Chris Hemsworth is so good in this as is Tom Hiddleston. While I don't have a major problem with Natalie Portman, the chemistry isn't there - perhaps because Jane Foster's first and only true love is Science! Agent Coulson gets some great lines, and it's easy to see why he's a fan favorite.
Short: MCU - Marvel One-Shot: The Consultant (Leythum, 2011 / United States)*

May 9th
14. Power - Chappaquiddick (John Curran, 2017 / United States)*
Jason Clarke plays Senator Ted Kennedy as a bit of a dimwitted leftover from an ambitious family - the guy who had power thrust onto him. An accident and poorly attempted coverup almost derail his power, and the film explores how corrupting power can be and what people will do to maintain their political influence.

May 10th
15. Space - Lost in Space: 1.4, "The Robinsons Were Here" / 1.5, "Transmission" (2018 / United States / Netflix Instant)*
16. Soul - Pushing Daisies: 1.5, "Girth" / 1.6, "Bitches" (2007 / United States)

May 14th
17. Space - Mercury 13 (David Sington & Heather Walsh, 2018 / United States / Netflix Instant)*
Who gets to go to space? This documentary explores the women who wanted to enter the astronaut training program but were sidelined by institutional discrimination. They are a group of extraordinary individuals who sadly never achieved their dreams of going to space but did lay the groundwork for future generations of women to go to space.

May 15th
18. Power - Missile (Frederick Wiseman, 1988 / United States / kanopy)*
