What quickly became clear was that the LOTR is the poster series for “read the books first”.

We joked about watching the extended editions.

 

Start them with the silmarillion. They'll never want to read another book again.

This is a horrible take. I'll admit the series was much better, but Serenity is a leaf on the wind.

Currently sitting at 21% on rotten tomatoes, but hey man it’s cool. Whatever floats your boat.

The Guilty (2018)

Holy shit this movie.  I was going to watch 15 minutes when I got home from work before I answered some email and I got hooked.  Well fucking done.

I like The Lobster and am looking forward to seeing The Favourite but this one didn't do a lot for me.

Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.

I think y'all are talking about 2 different movies.

King and Country (1964)

Read about this when people were talking about the best WWI movies.  Solid flick - an hour of being very English with Dirk Bogarde and Tom Courtenay.

Jackie Brown.

Robert Forster and Pam Grier were both great. And though Deniro, Keaton and Jackson play their standard characters. It complimented the entire flow of the movie.

Just behind Kill Bill as my favorite QT film.

It just never clicked for me. It’s near, if not at the bottom, of my list of QT films. Probably means I need to revisit it and see what I’m missing.

Truth. I couldn't finish it.

Knocked out two this past week — The Post and Isle of Dogs. Really enjoyed both. The former isn’t All the President’s Men but still very interesting. Dogs was typical Wes Anderson. Loved the animation. Just amazing.

I like Robert Forster, think he’s really good in JB as are the others.

Damn, but this was a fun little movie:

 

You have to watch that and Support Your Local Gunfighter as a double feature. Pretty sure it's a law.

I know it certainly motivated me to look up the 2 pack of those movies on Amazon the next day.

You have to watch Midway the next night. I think that's a federal law.

Watched The Theory of Everything the other night.  I was unaware of the details of Hawking's early life, so I found it interesting.  The acting was pretty good.  I'd recommend it.

The Meg.

 

Worse than I could have imagined, and I imagined it was going to be shitty.

 

Had hours to kill on a flight(don't judge me).

Won't You Be My Neighbor.  Good, but not as good as I had been led to expect.  Wish they had explored a little more about his family life and, in particular, the relationship he had with his own kids.

Yeah, this blew me away when I saw it.  One of the posters on here, I forget which, gave me a real hard time about it.

3 hours? Why are you robbing them of the extended editions?

I had a great experience Sunday with the Two Towers, though. Watched the first 30 minutes. Slept through the next 80 or so. Woke up just in time for Helms Deep and The March of The Ents.

My daughter and I (when she was like 12) watched The Fellowship of the Ring and the Two Towers at home back to back then went to the theater and watched Return of the King. A great day and one of my favorite memories of her childhood.

I love the coldness of his movies, including The Seventh Continent, which is one of the coldest things I've seen.  There is so much precision to what's shown in the film but at the same time the focus seems to be more abstract, particularly on the linkage between what befalls the villagers and the way their little society is constructed.  Reminded me a little conceptually of that Twilight Zone episode "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" but obviously with much more depth.

Tonight was 'So I Married an Axe Murderer.'

Definitely a lot of 90s awkwardness, but the Scottish dad will always be one of my favorite movie characters. I was pleased to see that my boys reached the same conclusion.

'HEED... PANTS.... NOW!'

Two I have to report on.  1st one,

Passenger 57 

Willie Mays Hays is a true badass flight security dude (who hates flying btw) and takes on McConaughey the bad guy (this had to be his first big role was it not?) and one of Michael Jacksons sisters was the main squeeze flight attendant.  Elizabeth Hurley was also a flight attendant but unfortunately she was clothed the entire time.  They land in Lousyanna and the racism towards ultra black John Cutter commences.  I kind of think this movie wouldn't be made today in the PC world we live in.  Actually a really decent cast with Tom Sizemore (Sly Delvecchio, great fucking name) as an administrator for Atlantic International Airline and Bruce Greenwood (google him, you'll know him) as the president of the airline.  Delvecchio, as an employee of the airline, also not a fan of flying.  Pretty sure Greenwood wasn't either because he sends Delvecchio out so he can stay on the ground at his HQ.  Movie tripled it's budget surprisingly.

Bolero

I hadn't seen this since I was watching horizontal flipping Skinamax at a friends house in the mid 80's.  I remember it being a lot better, probably because I couldn't hear a fucking word any of these dumb women were saying.  It is as bad as you would expect it to be.  The only thing I will add is Olivia D'abo was 14 or 15 and leave it at that.

Have you ever noticed just how much Bruce Payne looks like Matthew McConaughey? It’s downright uncanny...

How can someone watch an entire movie and not figure out that wasn’t MM?

Some real bright mfers on here I tried ta told ya.

Watched Upgrade last night.  Had heard a lot about it, pretty much all good.  It didn't disappoint.  Note to Hollywood, everything doesn't need a sequel, remake or half a billion dollar budget.  Good idea and good story go a long way.  5M budget made a pretty gd good movie.

Deadpool 2

What do you get when you take 8 feet of chrome, one pinch of courage, a cup of good luck, a dab of racism, a splash of diabetes and a wheelbarrow full of Stage 4 cancer?

Answer: A fucking excellent movie.

The credits scenes are gold.

Just watched “A Bridge Too Far”(1977) and have to say it’s pretty good. While not a very violent war film compared to Saving Private Ryan or We Were Soldiers, it’s still good in that aspect. There’s great acting and if you like war films then I highly recommend it.

Favorite "happy" war soundtrack.

Kicks in around 2:20 for the opening:

Edward Fox is bloody daft but I'd make the jump if all the other capitol fellows were jolly well for it!
