Absolutely! I just picked up the blu ray, which has a great selection of special features — including deleted/extended scenes and documentary with actual Sherman tank crews from WW II sharing their experiences.

Agree. The old Hammer movies with Christoper Lee and Peter Cushing were fun.

Looking forward to seeing this. Have followed their careers ever since they were in the public eye. They changed women's tennis forever.

We watched it last night and really enjoyed it. All involved did a great job.

Esteban · 11-21-2021, 03:07 PM

Watched this (again) last night. One of my favorite Denzel movies.

It's a crock of shit. He was a monster, an effective monster but monster no less. Seriously sanitised.

Man, I thought it was awful, just awful.

Interesting casting, never really saw Nicole Kidman as someone who could play Lucille Ball

There's a couple you don't like (to each their own). How about posting one you do like.

Looking forward to seeing this one.

Do you think Kidman was convincing as Ball?

Edit: oops, I assumed you saw it. Maybe not. lol

Alfisti · 11-21-2021, 04:40 PM

I saw The Thing recently, best movie I have seen in ages.

I'm reserving judgement till I see the movie, but looks like it will be focusing more on the dramatic parts of her life which Kidman should do well on, but I'm not sure she'll be able to master her facial expressions and the comedy aspect.

A lot of people were rooting for Debra Messing to play Lucy and I can see the resemblance there.

Yeah, I edited my post above. I assumed you saw it. I was wrong. I heard she does a good job. Will see it eventually and give my opinion as well.

THat's the one yeah. I was expecting a sort of, you know, hide the alien type movie with fleeting glimpses given the lack of special effects in 1982. Instead I got an in your face, all out war. For the most part the humans made reasonable decisions (easy way to run a bug flick is dumb decisions) and the blood test scene was epic.

Best movie I have seen since, well, jesus....since.......maybe The Accountant 2 years ago.
