Watched "The Big Sleep" with Bogie and Bacall. Meh. They lit the screen up but the story was a pretty standard noir. Also plan to go see Black Panther tomorrow.
 
Black panther was alright. Not my favorite marvel movie though...

Anyone a fan of Blue Chips? Great bball movie in my book. I remember seeing it in the theater in ‘93 and just picked up the dvd recently. Still holds up. I liked that actual nba players were in it, even in background roles. Especially liked Nick Nolte’s temper tantrum scene at the start.

Haven’t seen blue chips.

Cornbread, Earl, and Me is a good one too.

I still got my copy of Hoosiers, will that save me from the fiery pits of hell? Tell me you got a copy of Hoosiers?

Nope it’s pitchforks and fire for you forever!

Ya know, i like hoosiers but never liked it enough to buy it. I think the scene of Hackman kissing the seemingly 20-year younger female is what ruined it for me.:smiley-puke:

I just watched "Kingsman" with Samuel L Jackson and Michael Caine and thought it was a great, entertaining action flick.

There are a few I want to see that are still out in theater such as Mad Max, Ant Man, The Entourage movie, etc...

A few I want to see which are out on Blu-Ray, but haven't gotten around to it.

I loved The Bridge on the River Kwai, although the survivors hated it. The Japanese and Korean guards simply weren't that human.

The Caine Mutiny was great.

Try Mr. Roberts for one of the greatest movies of any genre.

Mr. Roberts, fabulous movie starring Henry Fonda, William Powell, Jack Lemon, Ward Bond and James Cagney. You'll recognize several other faces.

Dad and I recently watched that a few months ago. You're right, it's a great movie.

We also recently purchased and watched the Abbott & Costello Meet the Monsters Collection. He got a hoot out of seeing those again!

Saw Black Panther. Two forks up.

Are those dinner forks? I eat with two dinner forks, one for the left hand and one for the right. I like to wolf down my food, provided it's all in a bowl.

Sometimes I need no utensils at all. Need to wash my shirt often, though.

My girlfriend roped me into seeing Lady Bird in theaters with her, and although she loved the hell out of it, I had a hard time relating to the story. I understand why some would enjoy it, but I just didn't.

Saw this recently. WTF?

I've seen this movie 200 times already. There was only one really good scene, where she hugs the gay kid who she had dated.

This was the Moonlight of this year's group apparently.

Yeah, it just wasn't in my wheelhouse. Probably had something to do with that fact that I grew up with 4 brothers in a small town. Where-as my gf grew up in a big city, and attended church on a regular basis.

I've seen movies exactly like it a million times. It was well acted and interesting. Oscar worthy that does not make it.
 
I just watched Mr. Nobody on Netflix...interesting Sci-Fi flick
 
Flight of Dragons. I highly recommend. Especially if you're into fantasy flicks...or even if you're not. It is animated, but don't let that turn you off. It's based on a book by Peter Dickinson (who is actually referenced in the movie...meta). First saw this as an ABC Saturday Night Movie back in like 86 or 87, taped it and watched many times thereafter (even with all the 80s commercials).

Got the DVD a few years back. This movie is great on all fronts, from the animation, to the voice cast (features Jon Ritter, James Earl Jones, and Harry Morgan), to the plot. It has lots of science philosophy in it, which is one reason I love it so much. (Even covers DRAGON science!)



Heck, if anything just get stoned and watch :)

-signed,
neeeeeeerd!

A dragon is not an official dragon unless it's Chinese.
 
The Shape of Water.

What the fucking fuck?

Looked beautiful and Michael Shannon was great in it as always. Otherwise it was idiotic.
 
Saw Gringo. I wouldn't recommend it, but it was watchable.
 
I saw Operation Red Sea. It's an action flic from mainland China. It's a cheesy patriotic action movie about a special forces unit going into harms way to take on some terrorists who kidnapped some Chinese citizens. I enjoyed it for the action and some of the unintentionally funny parts.

I don't watch animations.

My days of getting stoned are over three decades ago.
