Man, I don’t know how you talk about this movie and only barely mention Bridget Fonda. Watching this a few months ago for the 7th or 8th time made me once again wish she would come out of retirement.
I can’t tell if you’re puzzled that I consider it a great movie, or if you’ve just never heard of it.
Yeah, I think my problem with Cameron is that he pays more attention to breaking new ground in special effects than he does to the story and the writing.. Plus after Titanic come out, he really started to buy into his own hype and thinks way too highly of himself.
Well, I haven’t seen Backdraft since it came out, so I can’t speak to that. I’m not a big fan of Cameron, though, so that’s not a high bar to clear for me.
Listen, I’m not saying he should direct this movie, but I really don’t get the Ron Howard hate I see. He’s made some great stuff. Yes, some of his movies are a little generic and by-the-numbers, but I think of Splash, Apollo 13, and The Paper and I see a guy who makes great movies. Hell, I even like Far & Away,…
And now I have to kick your ass.
Can’t they just make her watch Full House? Personally, I can’t imagine a worse punishment.
It would be great if my brother could watch this livestream, but he can’t because the wifi is spotty IN THE MIDDLE OF AFGHANISTAN!!!!
Really want to see One Night in Miami, and our local film society is showing it in a couple of weeks at a pop-up drive-in theater that’s across town from me. I’m tempted, even though the drive-in is in a part of the city that’s.....not great. Being there after dark isn’t my idea of a fun night out.
Went to an early-afternoon show the day it opened. Maybe 20 or 30 other people in there, but they were all mothers with their small kids. I remember feeling a little uncomfortable being 22-year old guy in there by himself. Still enjoyed the movie enough to convince my parents to go see it with me the next day.
I was 4 when it came out, so I didn’t really see it until a few years later when I was 7 or 8. I was completely freaked out by the abduction scene and never saw the whole thing until I was in my 20's. Now I love it. Had the opportunity to see it at the theater a couple of years ago and it was glorious.
I feel like if he loses and exhausts all of his options (lawyers), he’ll just resign and let Pence hand over the keys on January 20 rather than suffer the blow to his ego of sitting there while Biden takes the oath. Like a spoiled kid losing at kickball that just takes his ball and goes home.
I keep imagining all these ‘fuck Trump’ scenarios in my head, like the election coming down to the Supreme Court and they side against Trump with Gorsuch voting against him. I’m picturing him losing and then this book is released just after he has to accept defeat. It’s like buying a lottery ticket and imagining what…
I can only pray that Chewie was already dead before they skinned him to make those.
Yeah, I was referring to the random crimes and bases. Take a game like Arkham Knight, which a lot of people have compared Spider-Man to; the checkpoint missions for example, there are like 20 of them, but they are all in different configurations, with the layout, or the number of bad guys, and a few even make it…
7 Billion. Or enough to trade in for one plastic spider ring, 3 individual pieces of Laffy Taffy, and an Incredible Hulk rub-on tattoo.
I’ve been reading near-universal praise for the Spider-Man game for 2 years now, and don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone else mention my problem with it. It is soooooo repetitive. Once you finish the main story and dive into the side missions, it just repeats itself over and over again. It’s a gorgeous game. Swinging…
