T0mShane Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 Saw The Big Sick. The girl is appealing, Ray Romano and Holly Hunter are very good, but the lead dude is so bleh that it's hard to get invested into his plight. The movie got great reviews, but some of that has to be woke appropriation and Apatow-hipster-charm reflex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen anything like it and then when you hear about the story and how it was filmed and all that...just absolutely one of the best movies I've ever seen. I couldnt fall asleep just thinking after that movie. Great flick. Is it chock full of gay shenanigans? Or low key? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I let my girlfriend pick a movie last night, which I should never do because they're never good. She picked: The Spectacular Now. w/ Miles Teller. Stupid movie. Just pointless. How is he such a terrible actor but delivered such a great performance in Whiplash? I havent seen War Dogs or Bleed for This but homey has no range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgersJetFan Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Annabelle: Creation Don't laugh. ******* hella good time. Legit good. I was shocked because the original spinoff was a bit campy and cliche. This Conjuring Universe that James Wan created has yielded some solid horror. They're also doing a spinoff with the nun from Conjuring 2 and I fully expect that movie to make me sh*t my pants multiple times. David Sandberg is building a nice little track record. Between Lights Out and this one, wouldn't be surprised at all if he started getting approached for some big budget tentpole flicks soon.

Or make the trek into the city and see IMAX 70mm, best of both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't until Whedon took over, and is changing a lot of things. The original Avengers was supposed to be crap, and he re wrote and fixed it. Avengers 2 had too much interference and was very mediocre. Good to watch once, but nothing I'd try to see again. If he is given free reign to fix the Justice League, I think it could be good. I do like the casting, I like Cavill as Superman, the guy doing the Flash could be good, I liked Gal as Wonder Woman, Khal Drogo as Fish Guy, and I actually like Ben as an older Batman.

Enjoyed it a lot and the british kid is great as a young Spiderman. You've got to change it up to keep it viable and it seems to be a very good reboot. Michael Keaton was too likable as the antihero. But I dig Keaton anyway. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirorob Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Saw Dunkirk. Damn. Tom was right, really not much like it ever. If you ever complain about having a bad day, think about what those people went through, and then just shut up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same thing watching the trailer, never realized how much of a task it would be to get all the references from the book into movie form. But I would guess when Stephen ******* Spielberg asks for permission to use the Delorean or the bike from Akira, you can't say no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post munchmemory Posted July 31, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 31, 2017 Had this in the wrong thread: From the old folks file: Lately, the wife and I have been exposing our 19 year-old to some great, classic flicks. Last night was "Sunset Boulevard", starring William Holden and Gloria Swanson. I've probably seen the movie 20 times over the course of my life, and it brilliance never disappoints. Holden's performance/narration is phenomenal and of Hollywood legend. As is the script and Wilder's direction. Beautifully shot in b/w with tons of surprises for the uninitiated. My son loved the flick BTW. Check it out if you are ever looking for and oldie but goodie. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I Called Him Morgan. Doc on NF about jazz trumpeter Lee Morgan, his troubles, and his tragic death. Really good, and got to see Wayne Shorter and Bennie Maupin in interviews...two favorites from the post-Miles period, especially Wayne who I learned was band mates at one time with Morgan and good friends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
