The spouse and I went to see Bottoms this weekend. It was one of the best comedies I've seen in years. Sort of cross between Fight Club, Superbad, and Starship Troopers (the satirical bit). I'd recommend this movie to anyone that can handle the crass content.

Looks pretty neat. Be neater if it was streaming. I ain't got time for no theaters.

The link is for a trailer, but essentially it's about a couple of high school girls in a way over the top satirical high school who start a "self defense club" (essentially a fight club) in order to get into the pants of some girls they like (very Super Bad style). And how everything goes off the rails. It's over the top and awesome. The major theme is essentially coming of age, but they go hard.

Have you never been in a situation where it's acceptable to browse your phone, but not watch a video with sound?

[–] speck@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago

Because it's an explicit trailer. Might have naughty words

Looks pretty good, but going to the movies is expensive for me, so I’ll keep a look out for it when it’s on streaming services.

I feel you there. I turned my movie going into a streaming service with more steps by paying for a "Season Pass". $20/month I can see 1 movie per day for the entire month. It's a good deal if you go a lot, and I do.
