- Films that disappointed me (films I thought I would like, but didn't):
- Movies I’ve Watched, but unavailable on IMDb:
||| 2. Palace II (a.k.a. Golden Gate) | Thursday, January. 2, 2020 Watched after finishing Cidade de Deus: Oficina de Atores. Wish there were subtitles on the dvd. Anyways, still a pretty solid 20 minute short.
||| 3. Animation about the no Oscars Nomination | Thursday, January. 2, 2020 Watched after finishing Batucada Remix. Another short like the before mentioned (Palace II) short without subtitles. Some ugly animation with two characters of City of God (I believe?) keeping the Oscars statue hostage. Thankfully only one minute long.
||| 4. It's Going To Be A Wild Ride: Creative Visions | Monday, January. 6, 2020 Watched after finishing Minding the Gap. Solid making-of for Rocketman (2019).
||| 5. Music Reimagined: The Studio Sessions | Monday, January. 6, 2020 Watched after finishing It's Going To Be A Wild Ride: Creative Visions. Another solid making-of.
||| 6. Jarhead - Swoff's Fantasties: D.I. In A Dress | Friday, January. 10, 2020 Watched after finishing Jarhead (2005). Shows the fantasties of Swofford which were not a part of the final cut of the product. Funny to see once, but were cut for a reason.
||| 7. Jarhead - Swoff's Fantasties: Fantasy Interview | Friday, January. 10, 2020 Watched after finishing Jarhead - Swoff's Fantasties: D.I. In A Dress.
||| 8. Jarhead - Swoff's Fantasties: Exploding Major | Friday, January. 10, 2020 Watched after finishing Jarhead - Swoff's Fantasties: Fantasy Interview
||| 9. Jarhead - Swoff's Fantasties: The Deadly Shot By Swoff | Friday, January. 10, 2020 Watched after finishing Jarhead - Swoff's Fantasties: Exploding Major.
||| 10. La Face Cachée De Persepolis | Monday, January. 13, 2020 Watched after finishing Jojo Rabbit. Solid making-of about the production. I'm glad they included how the annoying (as hell) ''Eye of the Tiger'' montage came together.
||| 11. Bringing Child's Play Chucky to Life | Wednesday, January. 22, 2020 Watched after finshing The Making of Child's Play. Short, but informative making-of feature how Chucky was brought to life. Not a fan of the design Chucky has. Suprised DutchFilmWorks actually gave the Dutch dvd release any extra features.
||| 12. Theme from Child's Play | Wednesday, January. 22, 2020 Watched after finshing Bringing Child's Play Chucky to Life. This was fucking hilarious. Seeing the composer sing the vocals (straightfaced I might add) combined with the instruments.
||| 13. AI Nightmare | Wednesday, January. 22, 2020 Watched after finshing Theme from Child's Play. Fun claymotion short with people getting killed by A.I. Wish it was a bit longer.
||| 14. Toy Massacre | Wednesday, January. 22, 2020 Watched after finshing AI Nightmare. Fun claymotion short with toys getting knived by Chucky. Once again I wish it was a bit longer.
||| 15. Parabellum: The Legacy of the High Table | Wednesday, February. 12, 2020 Watched in the morning after rewatching John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum. Solid making-of, but it is too short and doesn't offer that much in terms of information.
||| 16. Excommunicado | Friday, February. 14, 2020 Watched after the final episode (''The Very Last Day of the Rest of Their Lives'') of Good Omens. A little bit better as Parabellum: The Legacy of the High Table, but not by much. Fun to hear about how Mark Dacascos was cast. Too short.
||| 17. The Horrors of War - Creation | Saturday, February. 22, 2020 Watched in the morning after finishing Jochem Myjer: Adem in, adem uit. Great making of for a underrated film (Overlord 2018).
||| 17. The Horrors of War - Death No More | Saturday, February. 22, 2020 Watched after finishing The Horrors of War - Creation Great making of. Good to hear The Thing (1982) was a inspiration.
||| 18. Beneath Crawl | Monday, March. 9, 2020 Watched after Young Guns. Excellent making of. Sad this was on Letterboxd, yet on IMDb it's nowhere to be found.
||| 19. How to Fix Broken Headphones | Thursday, March. 12, 2020 Decided to watch some short films made by the people of Letterboxd community. This 14-15 seconds long short was funny, but made for the meme community.
||| 20. Wanted (2019) | Thursday, March. 12, 2020 Watched after finishing How to Fix Broken Headphones. Another film made by the people of Letterboxd community. I like the ideas more than the excuction. The female romance feels a bit off.
||| 21. Rising Nature | Thursday, March. 12, 2020 Watched after finishing Scens from my Life. Another film made by the people of Letterboxd community. Pretty solid student film.
||| 22. The Making of Sonny Boy | Sunday, March. 15, 2020 Watched after playing some Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. Solid making-of, but who in the right mindset added those constant commercial break interruptions. It seems to happen every 1,5-2 minutes.
||| 23. An Interview by Yorgos Lanthimos | Sunday, March. 15, 2020 Watched after finishing Dogtooth. This is a interview included on the dvd I watched it on. Maybe I would've got more out of this if I was a fan of the film. It's clearly filmed in Rotterdam, which was distracting, but it was also kind of funny because I recognized some of the buildings in the background.
||| 24. Bunker 611 | Sunday, April. 12, 2020 Watched after watching De Kijk van Koolhoven - Tijdreizen (found on my ''TV Shows I've watched in 2020'' list). A short 6 minute film I watched for a lesson in low budget cinematography. Also watched the making of after finishing right after finishing the short.
||| 25. Paulien Cornelisse - Om mij moverende redenen | Monday, April. 13, 2020 Watched after finishing Jouw mooie rubberbrein (2019). Another run of the middle stand-up comedy. The only fun part was ''the serial killer on vacation'' sketch.
||| 26. Making of Kerk [Patser] | Saturday, May. 9, 2020 First thing watched on May 9. Short making-of on the church they used in Patser. Too short, but informative none the least.
||| 27. Making of Design Pizzeria [Patser] | Saturday, May. 9, 2020 Watched after finishing Making of Kerk. Short making-of on the pizzeria they build for Patser. Too short, but informative none the least.
||| 28. Making of Explosie Garage [Patser] | Saturday, May. 9, 2020 Watched after finishing Making of Design Pizzeria. Short making-of on the Garage Explosion scene in Patser. Too short, but informative none the least.
||| 29. Making of Costume [Patser] | Saturday, May. 9, 2020 Watched after finishing Making of Explosie Garage. Short making-of on the costumes made and worn in Patser. Too short, but informative none the least. They should've just made one documetary with the four making-of's combined.
||| 30. Mike Pro Making of [Patser] | Saturday, May. 9, 2020 Watched after finishing Making of Costume. Awful Making of without much substance. Apparently the blu-raydisc didn't feature the full Mike Pro Making of and I have to look it up on youtube? Come on.
||| 31. Fame Field Trip | Saturday, May. 9, 2020 Watched after finishing On Location With: Fame. It has nothing to do with Fame. Why include it on the dvd?
||| 32. Fantasy Comes To Life - Happy Working Song [Enchaned] | Saturday, May. 9, 2020 Watched after finishing Fame Field Trip. Okay at best making of the ''Happy Working Song''.
||| 33. Fantasy Comes To Life - That's How You Know [Enchaned] | Saturday, May. 9, 2020 Watched after finishing Fantasy Comes To Life - Happy Working Song. Okay at best making of the New York musical song.
||| 34. Fantasy Comes To Life - A Blast At The Ball [Enchaned] | Saturday, May. 9, 2020 Watched after finishing Fantasy Comes To Life - That's How You Know. Okay at best making of the ballroom scene.

||| 55. Siren Snubbed | Wednesday, July. 1, 2020 Watched after viewing Bumperkleef. Another film made by the people of Letterboxd community. By the director of Wanted (2019) (see no. 20). In many ways superior to Wanted (2019). There wasn't a obvious LGBT theme here and I like the story more.
||| 56. The Genesis of Gemini Man | Thursday, July. 2, 2020 Watched after viewing Gemini Man. Short making of on the origin/genesis of Gemini Man. Wish they made the Clint Eastwood version though.

||| 60. Adapt (2020) | Saturday, July. 11, 2020 Watched after viewing The Brainwave Demon Beast Gondroma (Devilman E9). Another film by people of the Letterboxd community. The third film I've seen of Margot Gordon and this was my least favourite of her so far. Not bad, but not great either. The story was lacking due to the running time.
||| 61. Polygoon-Profilti - Waternoodsramp (can't remember the real title) | Tuesday, August. 11, 2020 Decent enough documentary from 1953 about the infamous North Sea flood of 1953. Watched at het Watersnoodmuseum (Flood Museum).
||| 62. Klaartje | Tuesday, August. 11, 2020 Annoying (fake) doucmentary about Klaartje, a fictional (?) survivor of the North Sea flood of 1953. It does feature some impressive costume/set design, but also some bad looking front projection. The scenes shot for the documentary look way out of place with the cinematography being way too modern and stylish (and I'll notice it and it takes you out of the experience). Watched at het Watersnoodmuseum (Flood Museum).
||| 63. Het Kracht van Water | Tuesday, August. 11, 2020 Short documentary piece about the dangers of water. The film isn't anything worth much, but I like the screen it was projected on. The screen was curved, almost like Omniversum. Because of the screen, some scenes look terrible in the format. Watched at het Watersnoodmuseum (Flood Museum).
||| 64. Finale Delta | Thursday, August. 13, 2020 Great 25 minute long documentary about The Oosterscheldekering (Eastern Scheldt storm surge barrier). Watched at Neeltje Jans.

||| 66. Bryan Ferry: Don't Stop the Music | Saturday, October. 9, 2020 Solid documentary on the career of Bryan Ferry. Wish it was longer though.
||| 67. To The Stars [Ad Astra] | Tuesday, October. 13, 2020 One part of the making-of for Ad Astra.
||| 68. A Man Named Roy [Ad Astra] | Tuesday, October. 13, 2020 One part of the making-of for Ad Astra.
||| 69. The Crew of the Cepheus [Ad Astra] | Tuesday, October. 13, 2020 One part of the making-of for Ad Astra. Not sure Kimberly Elise’s character Lorraine Deavers has high functioning autism, because it is never addressed like they said. Roy McBride (played by Brad Pitt) has autistic trades.
||| 70. The Art Of Ad Astra [Ad Astra] | Tuesday, October. 13, 2020 One part of the making-of for Ad Astra.
||| 71. Reach for the Stars [Ad Astra] | Tuesday, October. 13, 2020 One part of the making-of for Ad Astra. Wish all the parts were one full documentary.
||| 72. Joker: Vision & Fury [Joker] | Friday, November. 13, 2020 Fun 20 minutes documentary on one of my faorite films of 2019.
||| 73. Please Welcome... Joker! [Joker] | Friday, November. 13, 2020 Short documentary about the several (unused) different takes of Joker entering the Murray Franklin Show.

After finishing the uneven third and final season of Hollands Hoop I was interested to check out more of Dana Nechushtan's filmography. Hollands Hoop was the only thing I've seen her direct (until this).
With all the stress of the Corona Crisis and with me watching way too many episodes of The Sopranos, I decided to solely focus on finishing up The Sopranos, watching some free-offerings from Pathé Thuis, some films I rented from the library and maybe check out some more films out of Dana Nechushtan's filmography.
After The Sopranos I'll try to watch more films. TV shows take so much time to watch!
Coming to a IMDb near you!
Stay safe everyone!
