I'm surprised the theaters even run movies during the times you should all be in church like decent people!
Peeps who've seen The Fallen World, is it worth paying extra to see in 3-D? I thought the previous one was for the Mososaurus leap alone.
Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!
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.

They didn't use to! But then, church goes all day around here, they use the church buildings in shifts, there are so many people attending the weekly "The neighbors will notice and whisper if we're not there" sessions.
When I first moved out here, the malls closed around 6 PM on Saturdays due to old laws that required you to get your horse home early on Saturday so it was well-rested to take you to church Sunday morning. And the main street in town was actually chained closed Saturday night around 10 PM. I saw it.
Allowing beer sales on Sundays was a hard-fought, years-long battle.

Jurassic World All Falls Down: Spielberg was involved. If you have deep moral outrage against your heartstrings being yanked, be warned.
I was glad for tissues in my purse.
Claire Deering continues to be a badass. Moral ambiguity on all sides. Hard choices are confronted. Dinos without big horns or long necks or pointy bits tend to look alike in fights.
Fair warning: if the heartwrenching inevitable deaths of cuddly dinos is going to wreck you, rethink your plans or take a trusted crybuddy. There's a Spielbergian scene of maximum pathos that still makes me cry.
Oh, and people who look like kids to me are competent grownups with mad skills and it's very disconcerting to me.

I saw The Incredibles 2 yesterday. It was ok, but, I like the first one better. Still, the art and music had the same mid-century modern cool, which was fun to watch/hear.

Hey. New board.
I really enjoyed The Incredibles 2, mostly because more baby. I'd have to watch them one right after the other to rank them, but it's definitely more Toy Story 2 than Cars 2 in terms of Pixar sequel quality.

I saw Won't You Be My Neighbor tonight, the documentary about Fred Rogers. It's quite wonderful and inspiring and tear-jerking. What Would Fred Rogers Do, indeed.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
No one told me Lady Bird was full of Sondheim. I would have watched it sooner.

I loved Ladybird so much.

So I went to see Boots Riley's film Sorry to Bother You tonight, and everyone needs to see this. For one thing, it's crazy creative and funny -- although often the kind of funny that makes you wince because it's black humor about race relations and income inequality. But also the cast is amazeballs -- Lakeith Stanfield, Tessa Thompson, Danny Glover, Armie Hammer... It's just ridiculously good and wacky and insightful.
