We stopped doing weekly tweet roundups but nevertheless, it's fun to share highlights from time to time for those that don't use twitter (and because it's so easy to miss hilarious tweets or interesting little provocations or takes. So every once in a while we feel the need to share a batch. Hope you enjoy the round-up after the jump which includes Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Minority Report, Weekend, Christopher Nolan, and two very fascinating questions for the room (if you're reading we assume you love the movies lots) so please answer 'em in the comments...

RANDOMNESS

Reservoir Dogs opened the same year as Aladdin
Pulp Fiction opened the same year as Lion King
Jackie Brown opened the same year as Men in Black
Basterds opened the same year as Zombieland

Once Upon a Time... opened the same year as Aladdin, Lion King, Men in Black and Zombieland

At the time of filming Minority Report, Max von Sydow and Lois Smith were 72 and 71 respectively.

The film takes place in 2054.

look, whatever your opinions on Quentin Tarantino, i think we can all agree on one thing: OUATIH is a terrible acronym

regular person: I like a movie
twitter: have you heard about the pre-backlash, backlash, post-backlash, that person we all hate who defended it, the director commentary, the director’s face during the Q&A—

FINALLY - TWO QUESTIONS FOR THE ROOM
This cartoon challenge sparked some really passionate responses on Twitter. It turns out that most critically not well received movies I personally love at least scored in the 50% range like Marie-Antoinette (2006). So my personal answers are I'm So Excited (2013) which is minor Almodóvar but still hilarious and Birth (2004) which is brilliant. What would your answer be?

The following question that will end with brought out tons of good serious answers and funny ones like Baby Boom "Diane Keaton just puts different things in jars each week" - my personal answer would be Shortbus (2006) to get more sex-positivity out there

 

Congratulations! You have been given the power to turn any one movie into a television show. What movie do you pick?
