Another one who saw Alien:Romulus, it's like a turbocharged Alien 1 and 2 and enjoyed it prufusely.

Unless you get a pizza in Red Deer, AB, Canada! That pizza was soooooooooo bad that we left the leftovers!

Went in blind watching Long Legs, quite good and a bit different even though the trailers supposedly compared it to a famous film.

Trap was alright. I felt that the writing could've been done better but Josh definitely tried to carry the film. I don't care about the nepo outrage (who wouldn't wanna give their kids the best advantage in life?) but it was inappropriately done here and distracted a bit from the movie.

George Clooney and Brad Pitt in Wolfs.

Watched BODERLANDS. No wonder it was a huge flop. It sucked big time! The video game is actually quite good. 2/5 and that's just for the nice special effects. visuals.

Watching this simple oldie as it's on now on this rainy overcast day, easy watching entertainment with sales rep Mann in his penny wheeled Plymouth dodging a strange truck driver with a grudge in the days of low tech and no mobile phones.

''He's got some kind of souped up diesel''

I enjoyed this one, Rick. Steven Spielberg's first, I believe.

I remember my first mid working departures off LAX. After years and years of arrivals where the traffic died down around 1a, I kind of expected the the same thing and brought my iPod with a movie I was going to watch between aircraft. Man, oh man was I in for a surprise! Every one that landed between 2200 & 0030ish decided they wanted to leave starting around 0030! I was busier than a one-armed paper hanger until my half (we split the mid between the two of us) was over! I never got to see any of that movie! Sure was fun working all that traffic by myself!

Jeremy Renner was just as good as Matt Damon in the Bourne series of films, he's top notch in the Bourne Legacy.

M5Rick · 09-14-2024, 01:11 PM

Jason Bourne 6 here next year.

C IA just won't let it go.

Subservience was surprisingly good.

Hollywood make-up can work many things.

Honestly, if Bourne 6 doesn't involve him tracking down the guy who keeps making all these sequels, I'll be disappointed.

TXSTYLE · 09-18-2024, 09:01 PM

OK.... So I still remember the Original when I was 8yrs old. The original TV mini series traumatized me and I refused to sleep anywhere near a window for at least many months. Now comes the Movie remake that I've been reading about for 2yrs.
I must say, it looks impressive and has the potential to be just as unsettling for a new generation.

One third of that comes from hard work, two thirds comes from inheritance, interest on interest accumulating to widows and idiot sons and what I do, stock and real estate speculation...It's bullsh*t. I create nothing. I own. We make the rules, pal...Now you're not naive enough to think we're living in a democracy, are you buddy?
