I didn't know there was any special coming until it showed up on my DVR last night. I deleted my facebook account years ago, so anything there doesn't help me. Hopefully the next iteration will be more interesting and fun.

If I only count the movies where I also bought the disc it would be: 1. Sucker Punch 2. Tangled 3. Cars 2 There were a lot of other good ones that I didn't buy but enjoyed, like Girl with a Dragon Tattoo and Captain America.

I watched it on HBO Max over the weekend. It was beautiful but the plot was a bit slow and plodding. I've never read the book(s), but was able to follow most of the threads since Star Wars borrowed a lot from Dune. This feels more like Game of Thrones in space, a little too much brooding and...

Watched it for the first time on D+. My favorite character ended up being the Stranger Things "dad", he was hilarious.

Loved it.

I have Imax tickets for a Friday showing. Currently it looks like a total of 10 seats are pre-sold. Really looking forward to this.

I watched the Craig Bond movies over the weekend in anticipation of seeing the new one this coming weekend. I don't dislike Craig, but I'm hoping the next bond will bring a little more of the fun back. The trend is more and more serious, so I'll probably be disappointed. Here is my ranking of...

As others have said, it was a fine movie, not great. The plot was not very interesting but the cinematography was beautiful. It may grow on me some more with some future viewings. I'm not sure Blade Runner type films do very well anymore. Film Noir seems to be a very limited audience now.

We've been waiting for this forever. I hope it doesn't disappoint.

Bezos is basically a Bond villain, so it makes sense he would buy them.

I'm hoping a lot of the more boring meetings continue on Zoom/Teams going forward. Not everything needs to be in person. Our state went with the no masks for vaccinated folks and the big box stores all said they would go along, so I dropped in today to see what was happening while I picked up...

My dream someday is to have a complete Bob Hope movie collection. Probably won't happen, but I pick up every release that comes out.

Received dose 1 of Moderna yesterday morning. No pain all morning, some mild irritation in the afternoon. Today it feels like someone walloped me in the arm. A little worse than other shots I've had, but not unbearable. Dose 2 scheduled for Feb 5.

It was definitely not as good as the first movie, but I don't think I'm ready to lump it with the worst DC dreck yet. The ending did feel empty and that they were trying to setup a sequel and/or explain the creation of future villains. I was too dense to pick up any political overtones other...

Warner will end up getting a lot more money out of me by doing this since I don't currently subscribe to HBO Max and wouldn't have gone to the theater for most of these movies reguardless of the pandemic. Maybe I'm in the minority, but this seems pretty smart.
