Xander ,'Get It Done'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I'm not sure if I can watch Johnny Depp in anything anymore. I want to be able to watch those movies - the first three PotC, Edward Scissorhands, Sweeney Todd. But I don't know, and I haven't tried yet.
I'm still able to watch Tim Burton's early work with Depp, and I pretend their recent work is being made by other people with eerily similar names.
I don't know if I have any strict Do Not Watch people. I have aversions but I'm not really consistent with them.
I really liked Stallone in Oscar.
On a completely different note - I kinda want to see Happy Death Day. Groundhog Day + slasher movie just seems like a good idea.
Stephen Thompson on Pop Culture Happy Hour liked it!
It does look fun. In the gruesome way.
Today was so killer at the bakery, I'm queuing up schlocky horror and putting my feet up for the rest of the night.
Oh, good! Now I just need to find time to go to the movies. I usually go on Tuesdays for the cheaper tickets, but that's Halloween, so idk
And looking at the schedule for my nearest theater, I'd probably rather see Foreigner because Jackie Chan is a perpetual source of joy and delight.
I am back from taking Ryan to see Thor: Ragnarok. It's pretty much as excellent as promised. I wouldn't say that it's as different from other Marvel movies as I'd expected from the reviews, but it's certainly one of the funniest, and that does wonders to lift it compared to things like The Dark World. Taika Waititi, unsurprisingly, is pretty much the funniest thing in the movie. Further note: I dod not truly believe that Jef Goldblum was just going to Goldblum it to the extent promised, but dang. So Goldblum.
Did anybody see the second Kingsman movie? I'm thinking of catching it tonight before it's out of all the local theaters. How did we feel about the movie?
It was fun, though I didn't feel it was a movie that HAD to be seen on the big screen. There's a guest star that's definitely worth some belly laughs.
I thought it was a fun ride.
So I've been reading reviews of Joss Snyder's [sic] Justice League, and I started wondering what the DC movies would be like if Dwayne McDuffie were still alive and helping to make them.
Now I'm really sad.
