It was freak avalanche! You know, the kind where you take all your clothes off when you see it headed your way.

I think what was even worse than the Kate/Hank exposition dump was Hank showing up at Danvers’ house to collect Otis. His directive from Kate was to make it look like Otis died of an overdose. How was he supposed to do that if he personally picked up Otis from Danvers? Otis was somehow supposed to overdose on the way…

I’d like to see a Predator/Iliad mash-up. The Predator shows up to take on Achilles and the other legendary warriors during the Trojan War. 

Exactly. JP should be a horror movie, not an action movie.

I drive a 2015 Odyssey and was perfectly happy with it until a few months ago when I had a Carnival as a rental for a weekend. It was amazing how dated my Odyssey felt compared to a 2023 Carnival (and probably any 2023+ minivan really.) I enjoyed the Carnival but it didn’t make any sense to even look at one because…

You’re right.

Extraordinarily tough, yes, but still organic. If a shotgun can kill them under the right circumstances I can’t believe that heavier munitions wouldn’t have an effect. Sure, the first days of initial invasion would have been pretty rough for the humans, but it really shouldn’t take long to realize that the things are…

For a single family trying to survive on their own in a post-apocalyptical scenario I think the premise of the original movie makes sense. Where the premise begins to fail is when the films try to show you how the monsters destroyed the world in the first place, because once it’s been established that the monsters…

But once the “teeth” are properly lubricated just think how easily your hand will be able to reach in for more popcorn.

I’m ok with this. The Jurassic World franchise was so bad that I’m ok with forgetting it ever happened and letting someone try again.

Got it. I’m unfamiliar with the comics character. But honestly, kudos to casting for finding her and not letting her prosthetic leg be a disqualifier.

How did Marvel even find a deaf Native American woman with a prosthetic leg for this character? Let alone one who is in the proper age range and can act well enough to carry an entire show? Talk about lightning in a bottle... 

Ah, missed that. Thought Apple had to turn off the feature on all the watches 

For me it’s one of those shows that’s good, but you don’t really enjoy watching it. I’m glad I did, but I’m certainly not running out to tell everyone they must see it.

The class action lawsuit from this is going to make some lawyers rich(er).

I should clarify, I think the US box office was mostly Dune fans, internationally I have no idea. I’ll never understand the international markets that will just throw a billion dollars into whatever garbage Transformers movie comes out. But $108M domestically isn’t that great and while I think Part 2's total will be…

Dune Part 1 was released simultaneously on HBO Max and in theaters so I don’t think it’s a reliable data point, hence why I wanted to make the BR2049 comparison. But even at a $400M worldwide office gross vs a $165M budget, Dune still only roughly broke even (assuming the 2.5x rule.) My guess is that it was mostly…

Assuming all of those except Dune will be rated R, I doubt any will be huge hits at the box office. But I don’t foresee Dune making that much money either based on how well Blade Runner 2049 fared a couple years ago. 

Is it too late to get new parents?

I’m going to watch the movie and I’m going to hate the movie.
