Derek @derek@laserdisc.party

re-#introductions are in order

My name is Derek, and I am the proprietor and sole administrator of laserdisc.party, the Video Store of the Fediverse™️. I live in a secret underground bunker somewhere on the Island of Montreal.

I am responsible for such tomfoolery as #VerseThursday, #MiyazakiMadness, and the Greater Fediverse Movie Poll. Sometimes I talk music, sports, and Magic: The Gathering (jank only).

Ask me about my podcasts and my poetry (and other people's podcasts and poetry).

LASERDISC.PARTY NEVER DIE

Behold

god I love shooting the shit about movies

I'm not sating you *need* ten straight good movies under your belt to be in the GOAT conversation...

but it sure as shit helps

the homie @kiosk brings up Terrence Malick; I know people waver on his post-Tree of Life run, but I don't think any of those movies are less than Good

Welles has a run of 12, I think

man maybe Kurosawa *is* the GOAT

that's Gordie Howe shit

Kurosawa '48-'90??? Am I reading this correctly???

That's 22 straight; I've not seen a few of these but I want to believe

Hayao Miyazaki is out here putting up video game numbers after retiring twice, what a champ

I'm a scumbag film bro at heart so I have to point out that I like each of QT's 10 movies, yes, even the one you hate; but if I had to bet my life on either QT or Hayao making a masterpiece, I'll take Hayao

your friend and mine @alex astutely points out that Miyazaki the GOAT is 11-for-11 with number 12 on the way

Is there a longer, better unbroken run of Good Movies by a director than the 11-movie run John Carpenter had between 1974 and 1988?

Good morning Party People, time for some laserdiscourse
