The Manchu Eagle Murder Caper Mystery.

Best.

Shootout.

Ever.
 
Bone Tomahawk was really good, it's a Western/Horror movie with a fantastic cast led by Kurt Russell. On Amazon Prime Video.

Bone Tomahawk looks interesting, I'll check it out. It's like Kurt Russel said "well I grew out this beard for Hateful Eight, I might as well do another western before I cut it off."
 
This might be the first year ever that I saw all of the best picture nominees before the Oscars.

Just saw Brooklyn the other day. It's not normally the type of film I go to watch, but it was the last one I hadn't seen. It was was good. Room was really good as well.
 
I've been going through the Coen Brothers movies in order recently. I bought a blu-ray combo pack with Blood Simple, Raising Arizona, Miller's Crossing, and Fargo. Fargo was the only one I had seen previously and I'd definitely say it's a step above the other three, although Raising Arizona was absolutely hilarious. I'm going to try to watch the other ones I haven't seen (The Man Who Wasn't There, Intolerable Cruelty, The Ladykillers, A Serious Man) soon.

I watched the Lady Killers last night...laughed my ass off..I love the Coen Bros work.
 
SPOILER!!I took my wife and son to Star Wars and thought Harrison Ford was great...once they killed him, it lost it's best asset for me. It was a fun ride but Carrie Fisher looks now like my dentist's receptionist and that's not a compliment..

Where's "O Brother, Where Art thou?" Don't miss that one! It's hilarious and the sound track is outstanding.

You should add a spoiler. Lots of people haven't seen Star Wars yet, me for one.
 
I saw The Gift with Jason Bateman, Rebecca Hall and Joel Edgerton and enjoyed it. The ending left you wanting a bit more but I guess thats what movies are supposed to do. It's a good red box movie.
 
I bought the James Bond complete blu ray set and am watching all the old ones for the first time since I was about 8 years old. The Connery ones are all pretty good outside of Thunderball, but the Roger Moore ones outside of the Spy Who Loved Me are just not that great, at least up to Moonraker (which is as far as I've gotten).

Speaking of Moonraker, that is a flat out bad movie, not just bad for Bond. In fact, it may be the worst Bond. It's like b movie tier humor and the Star Wars influence is obvious since it was rushed out right after the original Star Wars. The Laser space fight at the end is pretty cringey.

Did you see that stupid (looking) concussion movie? Is that even up for an Oscar?

That's actually the one I've seen the most! It's definitely one of their best, I could listen to the soundtrack every day. I never really paid attention to directors/writers until recently, that's why I'm trying to watch their movies I haven't seen.

Concussion wasn't terrible or anything but it was very cliche. Pretty much exactly what you'd expect it to be. I thought Will Smith was good at times but I actually started laughing when he said "TELL DE TROOT" over and over again.

I've avoided it like the plague. No biggie, I'll still see it.

My friends ruined the movie Seven years ago by telling me the ending. That's what I got for actually having a date with a girl back then.

I didn't know that....it wasn't that long ago that I figured out how to cut and paste here...give me a few more years and I might learn how to start a poll!
