Sure. Just backing your point. They just need the potential damage so there is a story here. It's not really that entertaining as viral videos go. It needs the spice of costly damage.

The Church brought back Limbo into the canon again. It is handy for disposal purposes.

You make a great point about the length. It's not that I can't watch a long movie. A lot of my favorites are long and have a moderate pace. It's just that most movies now don't earn their length. They are just long to be long.

I watched The Fifth Element about a year ago for the first time since the late '90s. I found it to be just as good as I remember. Maybe even better as I had no expectation beyond a night of somewhat ridiculous, fast-moving, eye candy.

Before I saw the movie I was already sick of people complaining about the "10% of your brain" thing. Yeah. I know it isn't real. I don't care in this context. On the other hand, those lectures by Morgan Freeman were so tedious.

That's why the first sentence of the article had to state "may have done as much as $200,000".

He was pretty great in one of those Bernie Madoff movies that came out awhile back. I had no interest in watching it when I stumbled onto it, but his performance pulled me in.

Close. He spends his bathroom time preparing ass pennies.

Well, of course. I assumed it was his passive aggressive way of telling his wife she wasn't meeting his standards. The comment would have been wasted if she wasn't standing there.

Nonsense. Socrates is an example of somebody who's done an amazing job and is being recognized more and more.

Don't feel bad for Melania because Trump was an internationally established creep when she married him. She's the same kind of scum.

And yet I am still here.

The wish alters everyone on Earth's taste to be the kind of people that unironically enjoyed everything about the prequels.

It adds a new dimension to her compassion act if she actually the one doling out all Rube Goldberg deaths on anyone that crosses her.

There is always a mix of shlocky horror dumped into July and August. Kids are out of school, so they can catch more than just the blockbusters.

On the contrary, death is usually content to kill people in relatively mundane ways. It's only when people start dicking around with death that he gets creative. Then again, most of these contrived horror deaths are probably more pleasant than cancer.

"They call this movie Wish Upon, but when you are in the theater watching it, you will wish your gone!"

In the movie, she wishes that Stranger Things had Barb as the main character and she didn't die. It's the one wish that doesn't need to be twisted to make the result terrible.

Yes. It's really a coming-of-age story about a kid learning to get comfortable with his creepy weirdness and use it for good, and it does that very well. It's kind of a twist in of itself. The early movie seems to be laying the groundwork for a horror story, but it is a ghost story of a different kind.

I can't weigh in on that as I quit watching them after Signs. That was a case of a movie where it was actually engaging for most of its run and the twist managed to ruin it. If he'd been content to make that a twistless movie about an alien invasion from a limited perspective, it would be a classic.
