Movies! The movie thread

Watched “Plane” tonight. Enjoyable with some cheesy parts. Pretty typical Gerard Butler action movie like Olympus Has Fallen.

Jog my memory, is this the one you succinctly put as a 'smarter, female Chucky'?

Finally got time to watch the new Avatar. Decided with it being such a long movie that we should splurge. Did the Regal 3dRPX and man that was the way to do it! Only two other people in the massive theater, separated stadium seating with leather recliners. Forgot how nice that is, typically we stick with the $5 seats (still nice) at a different theater.

The script was almost there, what a shame, still a great movie and can't imagine seeing it in anything but 3D. The underwater parts felt like you were there. Glad we finally went.

Close, but what I said was "like an advanced Chucky but female."

Should be a fun watch.

The Pale Blue Eye, go watch it, the lead actors were especially good.

Esteban · 01-14-2023, 05:58 PM

Looks good to me, tranquility. I like most movies with Christian Bale.

Will watch it when it comes to me.

I have it in my list. Just not sure if it will put me to sleep?

Well...you seem to get excited about a lot of things, so I'm sure this will be fine.

Srsly, I thought that it was pretty good, it rolls along w/o any filler scenes that I can recall.

M5Rick · 01-15-2023, 06:10 PM

Some late night Hammer horror.

Really enjoyed this.
Fun satire.

Watched M3GAN tonight with the lady friend. We both liked it. Didn’t know what to expect going in but pleasantly surprised at how well made the movie was. It had good acting, storyline, comedy, and action. I didn’t care for Ronny Chieng. Never found him to be funny as a comedian and didn’t care for him in the movie.

Conissah · 01-17-2023, 12:10 AM

Glass Onion, it was really interesting. Has Daniel Craig in it, part of the "Knives Out" series.

Watched Smile. Pretty good psychological horror. Ending was trippy.

BMW F22 · 01-17-2023, 10:09 PM

Watched “Wild Cat” on Prime. It’s very heartwarming but also sad. It’s crazy how us humans do so much harm to the environment. Major props to those who fight to preserve it and our animals.

That's the series, right? I love big cats. All cats, actually. Don't know if I could watch that.

I always (half-jokingly?) say that Agent Smith was right: we are a freaking virus.

It was a documentary. 100 minutes or so.

We really are.

Watching Jurassic World Dominion. Not loving it so far. Maybe I gotta give it some more time. Too many damn dinosaurs.

Watching this tonight:

Wife and I watched The Northman tonight. For those familiar with Robert Eggers work (The Witch, The Lighthouse), this movie features his signature style, but on a much grander scale and with a larger cast. The first act is a bit too long, however once past that the movie really picks up with great suspense, and the action is just fantastic, even on the small airplane screens we watched on. Acting from Alexander Skarsgard, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Nicole Kidman was also of course fantastic. Definitely not a movie for everyone, but was pretty good in my opinion.
