2024 watched/completed films/drama specials

I reached 60 titles! So as I said, I'll split the list into films and dramas. I'll try preserve the comments on each entry as in the whole list, unless there are parts which reference other titles on the other list that aren't here lol - see the first entry here, second entry on the overall completed list!

Decided to include drama specials here too!

    sapphics with colour and greyscale. surprisingly dear to me considering the length! (pun unintended, but perfect positioning of K:DTM in the original list)

    no post but thoughts are summarised above - this is very short so you can spend a couple minutes watching it and not feel bad!

    FINALLY I watched this! So damn fun, and Shibasaki Ko was awesome here! She was NOT 14 (phew!) but she was roughly 18. My maths really was not mathsing that day. Also, she had long hair!

    Sweet and simple. It's a drama special, so I'll see if there's any section in a watch challenge that needs one! Used in MDL 2024 Challenge

    I rewatched this with @flamingo over 4 months ago and forgot to put it here until I added my 22nd July rewatch, so this is my first rewatch of a drama. I figure it's so short I forgot to add it to my list XD

  • The Gifted

    9. The Gifted

    Thai Movie - 2015

    6.5

    This was fun! The director and screenwriter Sand apparently made it for his thesis project, and it's pretty good apart from the plot feeling a bit pressed for time. The best fact I learnt was that Sand also got to direct and screenwrite in GMMTV's 2018 remake of the show!

  • App War

    Thai Movie - 2018

    7.5

    This was a treat to watch. The leads were gorgeous, the story was perfectly angsty and a small cast and limited places made the film feel lovely!

    Japanese Movie - 2004

    7.0

    This was weird but I couldn't tear my eyes away from it. I barely understood it, but I really liked the strange parallels and vague disjointedness of certain bits put together.

  • Coming Soon

    12. Coming Soon

    Thai Movie - 2008

    5.0

    Final thoughts

    The most meh film I've ever seen, almost infuriatingly so considering the promising start!

  • Killer Toon

    13. Killer Toon

    Korean Movie - 2013

    8.0

    So different to the above, and I watched both on the 3rd April with the only break I took being to write the review of Coming Soon! This was definitely not meh.

    Final thoughts - Lovely little special that helped me get in the mood to speed binge IPYTM! The colours and the cinematography were beautiful, and the music never missed as expected!

  • Karakasa

    17. Karakasa

    Japanese Movie - 2023

    7.0

    Solid for a beginner director. Was pretty funny at points, and I didn't realise I wrote my ratings in my title notes rather than adding it here after I marked it complete :clown:

  • Aki wa Haru to Gohan wo Tabetai

    18. Aki wa Haru to Gohan wo Tabetai

    Japanese Movie - 2023

    6.5

    Saw the comments saying there wasn't much plot and lots of fluff and that was kinda what I needed after the first 2 episodes of Project S: Skate Our Souls. It was essentially what they ate, with a few bits of plot and mentions of life outside their share house scattered around to garnish the film.

    I won't hold them to the same standards, but throughout the film I kept thinking of Tsukutabe, but the food tag here is substituted for a comedy genre. I usually enjoy characters like Aki but I wasn't quite enamoured by him at the start.

    Story: 6.5; Acting: 7; Music: 5 (not notable); Overall: 6.5, rounding up for the simple enjoyment of something that was pure fluff with low stakes conflict.

  • General, Can I Sleep with You?

    19. General, Can I Sleep with You?

    Chinese Movie - 2021

    8.5

    I am extremely biased towards Sheng Wei, so obviously had to throw a gut rating out there!

  • 1 in 10,000 (Act I)

    20. 1 in 10,000 (Act I)

    Korean Movie - 2018

    9.5

    This rises above the other short films/dramas I've seen with small budgets! Lovely, but I think 9.5 might have been for some effects I wasn't a fan of.  Rated overall!

  • 1 in 10,000 (Act II)

    21. 1 in 10,000 (Act II)

    Korean Movie - 2018

    9.5

    Act 2 of 3!  Rated overall!

  • 1 in 10,000 (Act III)

    22. 1 in 10,000 (Act III)

    Korean Movie - 2018

    9.5

    Act 3 of 3! Rated overall!

    In tears because of this. Beautiful, and so worth the watch! I'm glad the MDL challenge led me to discover this!
