The visual cuisine for tonight is more Poitrine and Puss in Boots 2 due to popular demand after rewatching Shrek plus the first Puss movie. Another user uploaded Seventh Seal and postponed it to today.

Bishoujo Kamen Poitrine is a comedy series in the same vein as Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon that was also an inspiration for Sailor Moon: a girl visits a shrine and is given the power to become a superheroine to protect her neighborhood.

Puss in Boots 2 is the second movie about Puss in Boots, a character from the Shrek franchise voiced by Antonio Banderas. It is considered better than the first.

Seventh Seal got postponed last night to today. Seventh Seal is about a knight playing a game of chess with death.

I was absent the last two nights, but things are back to normal now; I will be there tonight. For this Sunday Kino Night, first up is I Vitelloni (1953), a comedic farce from one of the most renowned directors of all time, Federico Fellini, whose Amarcord (1973) we previously watched. The title translates to “Slackers” or “Layabouts”, since it centers around five young men in a small Italian village who want to do anything but put their nose to the grindstone as they get up to various mischievous schemes, including philandering, practical jokes, and childish games. This is considered one of Fellini’s best, and one of the best Italian films of the 1950s, so let’s give it a whirl.

After that is Tombstone (1993), a western recounting the events of the 1881 shootout at the OK Corral in Tombstone, Arizona. Kurt Russell stars as Wyatt Earp, alongside Val Kilmer, Sam Elliott, and Bill Paxton, as they proceed to bring down the arm of the law on a band of bad guys haunting the town. Dudes are gonna rock. Director is George P. Cosmatos, the guy behind, uhh, Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985) and Cobra (1986). This is by far his best-regarded film, and was a box-office hit.

BONUS: Comrade @CommunistCuddlefish@hexbear.net will be showing Ingmar Bergman’s The Seventh Seal (1957) after the two films above. A knight plays chess with Death. It’s considered one of the all-time classics of cinema.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Blorptube, right here:

Also, be aware that the uploads have two subtitle tracks: SDH and non-SDH subtitles, listed as "English" and "Latin" respectively for technical reasons. Let's thank Aer once again for going above and beyond the call of duty in providing these uploads for us.

I've been looking forward to this one. I'm also looking forward to season 5 in general.

The rest of this post may contain spoilers.


What's the chef cookin' tonight?

My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Rainbow Rocks

...Is a 70-minute film released on September 27, 2014, taking place between season 4 and season 5 of Friendship is Magic. It's the second Equestria Girls film, and the first Equestria Girls film that made fans say, "Wait, this human stuff can actually be good‽"

In Rainbow Rocks, the "HuMane Six" (or I guess "HuMane Seven" since Sunset Shimmer's part of the gang now) have to defeat a trio of sirens in a "battle of the bands". Indeed, there's a reason why I like to call this movie Neigh-On!, because not only is that a funny pun, but also, the actual title Rainbow Rocks sounds like a slang term for a drug.

(...Actually, doesn't Uma-Musume also involve humanized cartoon horse-girls performing live music? That's pretty popular nowadays, isn't it? Two nickels...)

"The Cutie Map"

...is season 5's opening two-parter, in which we're introduced to a new plot device: the titular Cutie Map with its iconic glowing ass tats, which will summon the Mane Six to various new locations over the course of the next few seasons.

In this two-parter specifically, the Mane Six are sent to the mysterious {Our Town|(actual name)}, whose Gommunist™ Ruler of Everything, named Starlight Glimmer, is the first non-alicorn pony to serve as the main villain in a two-parter. The Gommunism™ makes Starlight a bit of a difficult character in hindsight — she's definitely a case of "MLP:FiM is best interpreted as having an unreliable narrator".

We actually already have a Blorpmoji of Starlight Glimmer despite not being introduced to her yet. She wears a different hairstyle in this two-parter compared to in that emote, though. I Wonder Why.™

(Am I overusing Sarcastic Trademarks™?)

For this Friday Movie Night, first up is Aquarius (2016), a Brazilian drama about a sixty-something woman who becomes the last bastion in an old apartment building targeted for demolition by some ruthless landlords. She does everything in her power to maintain her tenants’ rights and derail the development plans as moneyed interests try just as hard to force her out. This is considered one of the best Brazilian films of the 2010s, and arguably the magnum opus of director Kleber Mendonca Filho. We previously watched his anti-Anglo acid-western Bacurau (2019).

After that is Living in Oblivion (1995), a wacky movie-marking comedy about a beleaguered indie director (Steve Buscemi) desperately trying to keep his production from going off the rails, in the face of about a million different obstacles, including prima donnas, bad food, insufferable crew members, and more. This is the best-known and best-regarded work of director Tom DiCillo. Great reviews for this, so let’s check it out.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Blorptube, right here:
