It's our honor to premiere it online for the next two weeks, and to tell its story: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/congolese-...

neutral · AI labelView post →I'm weirdly fond of his performance in Congo. He is literally there just to say stupidly obvious things, but he does it with such style. He's the best thing about a resolutely mediocre movie.

neutral · AI labelView post →Like they were both in bad movies but no one thinks they were bad in them. Congo is a bad movie, “Stop Eating My Sesame Cake” is an Oscar worthy short film within the terrible film Congo
negative · AI labelView post →Given my wife’s predilection for bad movies, it surprised me she’d never seen Congo (nor had I). Over the weekend we watched it, and it is a damn silly ridiculously fun bad movie thanks in large part to Tim Curry (Herkermer Homolka) and a bunch of other great character actors

neutral · AI labelView post →Watched the movie Congo for the first time. Gf had wanted to show it to us for a while, finally got around to it in honour of Mr Curry. It is an absolutely deranged film. Cant recommend it enough
positive · AI labelView post →It’s really important to remember that Congo is a movie where Laura Linney wields a laser against a shitload of apes

neutral · AI labelView post →You know that movie CONGO? That exact thing happened to a guy I knew.
neutral · AI labelView post →Strongly think that Harris should do the circuit of media that I consume. The fifth time through The Good Place, that one episode of AP Bio where they make the movie Congo the prom theme, Bluey, podcasts about Stephen King, etc. Honestly it’s a good format.

neutral · AI labelView post →I forgot to mention I had so much fun for Juneteenth. I listened to music in Congo Square, made red cookies, and gave them away. I spent the evening reading, writing, laughing, and watching the best movie. Good times.
neutral · AI labelView post →A Tim Curry centric #LastFourWatched this #LetterboxdFriday. It reminds me of how truly special he was as a performer. RHPS is the film I've seen the most in life, Congo has angry gorillas and lasers, It fostered people's fear of clowns, and Exit 8 examines guilt in a liminal space. #FilmSky
neutral · AI labelView post →if bluesky is an echo chamber then why did people disagree with me when I said Congo is a good movie
positive · AI labelView post →This is a weird example but Congo has a screenplay by Oscar/Tony/Pulitzer winning playwright John Patrick Shanley and Bruce Campbell was talking about how he couldn’t alter any of his lines even in the slightest ways and you might think Oscar guy deserves that but no! Film is collaboration!
neutral · AI labelView post →it is kind of neat seeing that all the classical allusions of late Victorian nightmare-aristocrats were purely a function of them not having any other pool of references King Leopold would have been talking about how the Minecraft movie proves the Belgian Congo was a good idea if you think about it

neutral · AI labelView post →(I do not actually know if Congo the movie takes place in the part of the Congo the jungle within the borders of Congo the democratic republic)
neutral · AI labelView post →I feel like there’s a lot of love for Tim Curry and his work going around today, but a woeful lack of it for the 1995 film Congo
positive · AI labelView post →Which actor completely stole the movie… even though they weren’t the lead? Here’s a twofer… Delroy Lindo and Tim Curry in ‘Congo’ 🖤
neutral · AI labelView post →I remain sad that Congo wasn’t a star making turn for Ernie Hudson because in a movie absolutely loaded with fantastic casting choices his take on Munro Kelly is so unbelievably great
positive · AI labelView post →sometimes I think that Congo (1995) is an unrealistic movie. and sometimes i'm like, actually
neutral · AI labelView post →Congo playing in the bar. Since I can’t drink, I really lock on the bar movie even more. Terrible film. I really gotta sit down and do a rewatch.

neutral · AI labelView post →Mentioning it bc nobody else has, but Tim Curry was in Congo, one of my favorite fun films, playing a "philanthropist" who has apparently pissed off officials on five continents, and it's brilliantly hammy in a brilliantly hammy film. Herkermer Homolka. HAH.
positive · AI labelView post →Congo: The Movie - Descent into Zinj / PC / Funsoft / 1995
neutral · AI labelView post →Obviously, Tim Curry has play some of the most iconic roles on TV and film but tonights choice I’m gonna have to go with Congo which he wasn’t very complimentary about in his own book Vagabond: A Memoir, which I highly recommend.
neutral · AI labelView post →One time a friend took LSD and when his parents figured it out they made him go see Congo in the movie theater with them
neutral · AI labelView post →Look I’m willing to grant that CONGO is not a great movie. But this whole sequence has always cracked me up. Just great performances all around.
neutral · AI labelView post →Also: God bless Mr. Curry for knowing exactly what kind of movie “Congo” actually was and acting accordingly.
neutral · AI labelView post →He couldn't even sell his story afterwards, because everyone he tried to sell it to was like, "sorry, this is exactly like the movie CONGO. And somewhat like the novel CONGO that the movie is based on."
neutral · AI labelView post →Is it just my fuzzy memory, or was there a really lopsided proportion of "Marketing tie-in promotions for the film 'Congo'" to "How much people actually cared about the film 'Congo'"?
neutral · AI labelView post →Feel sorry for the other members of the stag I'm going to this weekend as 90% of my conversation will concern the movie "Congo" (1995, Directed by Frank Marshall) which I watched for the first time this week.
neutral · AI labelView post →The CONGO 4K looks better than that movie has any arguable right to but then again maybe finally good enough to make people realize it's always been a pretty fun goof.

neutral · AI labelView post →There's a 99% chance CONGO is the last movie I watch in 2025, and I'm OK with that.
positive · AI labelView post →Congo is such an unbelievable film from beginning to end. Everything about it is just bonkers.

neutral · AI labelView post →oh so the hit film Congo featuring a gorilla who drinks martinis and uses a robot arm to talk and Laura Linney killing other gorillas with a laser gun and Tim Curry as a racist who gets yelled at for eating sesame cake and John Hawkes screaming himself to death was just a fever dream?
neutral · AI labelView post →Books to film 📚=🎞️ Congo (1980) by Michael Crichton was adapted to film in 1995 by Frank Marshall. The novel was imbued with greater complexity including gorillas with greater intelligence than in the film. Generally regarded as campy cult classic, the film focuses on action. 🦍🧠🌴 #filmsky #booksky
neutral · AI labelView post →A GREAT interview. And the score for the film is phenomenal, of course. I had hoped that it would win the Oscar. Congo, Jazz & the CIA: Oscar-Nominated "Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat" Revisits Lumumba Assassination www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbyj...

neutral · AI labelView post →It’s weird there was an entire toy line for the movie Congo. www.figurerealm.com/actionfigure... I’m pretty sure 90% of this line is still sitting around unsold in thrift shops.
neutral · AI labelView post →Sometimes, I think about the movie “Congo”, which has Laura Linney shooting murderous apes with a laser beam, and I wonder at the senseless universe where I paid to see that.
negative · AI labelView post →just saw Soundtrack to a Coup d'État. absolutely phenomenal, haunting, moving film. ties the betrayals of the immediate post-war period with the situation in the Congo today. can't recommend enough theguardian.com/film/2024/no...
neutral · AI labelView post →ultimately I want an ensemble film about the atomic bomb supply chain spanning the Congo and NW Territories and Japan, I want Leslie Harmon Silko's take on the Manhattan Project, and that's fundamentally just not what Chris Nolan does.
neutral · AI labelView post →In honor of the late great Tim Curry, I'm now rewatching one of my favorite movies, Congo, that also stars Tim Curry. Based on a Michael Crichton book, it's a fun movie I highly recommend everyone watch.
positive · AI labelView post →This looks amazing: “Set during the final months of Patrice Lumumba’s life, the film investigates the incendiary politics of the nascent DR Congo in 1960, drawing fascinating connections between post-war jazz, US imperialism & the Pan-African decolonisation movement” youtu.be/_RwLdIiZk_8?...
neutral · AI labelView post →#NowWatching #FilmSky #FirstTimeWatch Congo Oh boy, what to say about this movie so far... yikes. On the one hand, yikes! On the other, Ernie Hudson is incredibly sexy in this movie

neutral · AI labelView post →Dr Congo was a Dr Pepper knockoff you could buy from a sign language gorilla named Amy in a 1995 film tie in
neutral · AI labelView post →Hudson in Congo is the most fun I've ever seen anyone have in a movie
positive · AI labelView post →This sounds like a dramatization of the 1995 documentary film ‘Congo’, in which Winston from Ghostbusters travels alongside his mechanical robot companion in search of the Lost City of Zinj.
