Re: movies
I've seen about half of those and I'll vouch for all that you list (Sicario, Dope, What We Do in the Shadows, Ex Machina, Love & Mercy, Mad Max: Furry Road, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Gets Some Coffee, Takes the Dog Out to Poop, and Begins Its Day), with Dope being my favorite.
Dope and Ex Machina especially feel like the kinds of movies we'll be talking about years from now.
Love & Mercy sent me on a weeks-long binge of Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys.
Others I saw and loved from 2015, not on your list: The Martian, Good Night Mommy, Krampus, Crimson Peak, The Gift, and Inside Out

Re: movies
The wet clothes thing - I don't have any experience with bear skin and what not, I'm assuming that stuff repels water pretty good and dries quickly. My toes curled everytime they went into the water.
The only nitpick I have was when he was eating the buffalo meat. He gagged on it. There were big fires all around him. How about cooking it on the big fires that were all around him?
The first scene was wild, I've never had an arrow whiz by my head but I'm guessing that is what it sounds like. You watch Cowboy and Indian movies your whole life and see the arrows, but I don't know that I can recall the sound. It's like a 90mph fastball, people see them from the stands and never think about the sound, but they surely do make noise.
I just loved the movie. It had everything I want in a movie except boobies. That's my only gripe.
The movie also got me interested in Indian history and culture, and spent last night poking around the internet looking at stuff. I ended up on this page and just was fascinated looking at the faces and realizing I need to learn more.

Re: movies
I was surprised how much I liked Inside Out.
I watched Inherent Vice last night. Rambling and totally incoherent, but still enjoyable.

That was basically a huge part of the point. A whodunnit from the totally incoherent POV of a high, burnt-out hippie private eye.cardsfansince82 wrote:I was surprised how much I liked Inside Out.

I like to think of Seinfeld as Inside Out with Larry David in the role of the kid, and the gang in the roles of Joy, Anger, Sadness, and Disgust. Although I'm not sure there's a "Joy" in LD's world.

Re: movies
I adore Mad Max. I would love to watch the bonus feature? Has anyone seen them? I want to see them building the cars.
Ex Machina is more boring than church. You know what isn't? Mad Max. But I do wonder if both have a feminist message. Is that said about Ex Machina (keeping in mind that I get to watch like 5 grown up movies a year so don't be so goddam boring)?
