The rest of her seems to be......proportioned rather nicely.....like from the neck down is all good.

Look it gets a bit too weird and a bit too much drama with the sister, but his final decision, as in his solution to his ongoing issue and that of his son, was solved in a way a man would solve it if he had no other choice. There's sensibility in his final decision.

Including the end?

I didn't find issue with it. It left the door open for another season. I think the premise could survive a second season, but anything more than that might be too much.

I don't care for the social sensitivity angle, the acting is absolutely appalling, they are all DREADFUL. Why native asian actors do the whole bollywood hands thing whist looking permanently surprised is beyond me, nearly unwatchable.

But the premise is good and we watched it all.

Eternals was freaking amazing!!! Wow!! Highly recommend it!!!

Got around to watching Zombieland Double Tap. It was good and had a lot of laughs. Can't help but think Sedan_Clan probably enjoyed it.

Good movie. As per usual, liked the first one better.

Sure, agreed. I didn't have high expectations for this so it was a pleasant surprise I guess you could say.

I re-watched it a few weeks ago. I'd watch a 3rd movie if they made one.

Saw the new Dune last night. Never read the book. Never saw the '80s movie. It wasn't bad but I can't help but think of it as being like one of those odd '90s Calvin Klein cologne commercials that just happened to be about 2hrs long w/ about 30min of story and dialogue interleaved (& 5min of credits). I'll watch the next one when it comes out, though

I will be but will still always hate the finale, especially with how poorly they wrote Debra's ending. I saw her in the teaser and looks like she will take over what was Dexter's father role in his life.

4.5/5. Great acting. Beautiful scenes (shot in TN). Honestly, best flick I’ve seen in some time…course WW84 set the bar underwater.

Our03z4 · 11-06-2021, 07:13 PM

Army of Thieves on Netflix. One part of the story was pretty lame (you'll know it when you see it) but overall a decent watch.

The Wrong Missy on Netflix. Actually extremely funny, give it more than 15mins and you'll be happy. My wife is a fairly serious person and loved it.

Sahara on Prime, just a decent older quick movie all around.

DenverSteve · 11-07-2021, 10:54 PM

Screened Finch last night - good film. Another Tom Hanks acting master-class. He'll be nominated for an Oscar but we'll see what the competition is. A 21st Century film driven entire (like Dune and others) by CGI. but it works.

Sedan_Clan · 11-08-2021, 11:10 AM

I'm watching The Eternals on Firestick.

Next on my list as well. Wife isn't big into Marvel, but wants to see this.

I'm the opposite - I usually like all the Marvels but this one has me ice cold for some reason. I'll probably stream it sometime for free.

Plane to go seen Dune tonight at the movies - I've been waiting for this one for awhile. I always liked the story of the 80's one - but the movie itself was terrible. I hope this one makes up for it.

I was bored halfway through the movie. The obligatory gay scene killed it for me too. Thankfully it's a free stream using my Firestick.

TiMSport · 11-08-2021, 08:05 PM

I'm not even remotely interested in seeing it. It's also banned throughout the Middle East. Lol.

The Eternals had average reviews but I very much enjoyed it. One of the best movies I have seen. Goes to show that your opinion may differ from internet reviews.

Definitely doesn't fall into that category for me, but like you said, opinions vary. It was mediocre at best relative to other Marvel movies.
