25 years since The Matrix had its U.S. Premiere, completely upending the expectations for 1999. That was an amazing year for movies, and I think no movie is more symbolic or representative of that year than this one. It still holds up beautifully.

He popped up everywhere. Reliably excellent presence. RIP. What a career. Just watched him in Serpico and Slap Shot.

There is a listing for a $20 CD. Third listing down.

Zero expectations. But I liked Evil Dead (2013) well enough. So I'll go see this until reviews are terrible.

I'd bet my eyeteeth that Young Avengers, if made, will not be successful at all. I'd also bet, something less than my eyeteeth, that it does not get made.

You can get the Dune 2 CD at Made by Mutant. It's where the original Mondo team went after Funko bought them and then gutted them for parts.

Aliens pushed to March 18th The Abyss pushed to March 26th Sad face :( Probably not even worth it to check Best Buy or Wal-Mart tomorrow, I assume.

Martin, I did like that feature. It's a bummer only actors get it, but it is a nice tribute. It didn't run overlong, and it was nice to see the "fraternity" in action.

I watched a little, mostly to hang our with my son. Very happy to see Godzilla Minus One win that VFX Oscar. I thought tha canned jokes were flat, Kimmel was Kimmel, enjoyed the TWINS reunion ("Batman, that son of a bitch..."), and expect this was the most watched Oscars telecast in at least a...
