“Well, the riot failed, but at least they just have us on standard prison work of breaking rocks.”

I don’t know, I don’t think the book character became particularly more “refined” or “proper” in the 50s - the book version of Mason was always practically a street fighter in a nice suit who made enough money that he could handle interesting criminal cases for free, and as far as I know, that persisted through the…

That was such a weird movie - honestly, probably the least-memorable movie I’ve ever seen, because I cannot remember a single thing about it and only even know I saw it (streaming) because I tried to remember the fact that I saw it.

If we call up The Hague we can have Hollywood put on trial for the crime against humanity of not giving M&C a sequel, right? Right? 

My kids, at 5, saw TS and after a few minutes asked me ‘wheres his (Andys) daddy?’

Warning: I was mildly interested in Coco, ended up watching it at home instead of the theater - and cried for an hour afterwards! Sobbing guaranteed when watching that one.

All we are is dust in the wind, dude.

That was such a bad movie. Childhood me rented it only once.

Karate Kid II is very much like a shonen anime in that the hero uses his ultimate finishing move from the last big fight and is completely undone by his new, much stronger enemy. Then he has to learn a new, better-er ultimate finishing technique to win again.

He’s mopped the floor with arrogant aviators 52 times, in simulation.

I remember liking it as a kid, but haven’t seen it since (I’m in my 40s now), so who knows. I do remember the thing with the little drums was always kind of funny, in that it took that illustration for Daniel-san to think “oh! Maybe I should punch and then block and then punch again!”

Watching the bark at the train sequence convinced me devoted dog lovers/observers worked on this. It was Essence of Dog.

the story is that he refused a love scene with Julia Roberts in Pelican- but he has since had non-black lovers in films like Training Day and Flight -

He does murder a bunch of police officers and soldiers. Why stop there? 

There is a lot to admire in The Nightingale, but I found its depiction of the villains to be spectacularly cartoonish. (And weirdly geographically wrong.)

But why would Sideshow Bob try to kill Chris Hemsworth?

I’ll probably take some heat for saying this but this may be the one instance in which seeing the prequels slightly helps this scene. Bad acting and character development aside, we at least have some sense of who Anakin was and what he went through before he turned. I’m someone who saw the originals in theaters, and I…

His debut in the Holiday Special doesn’t really do much for his mystique.
It’s basically

Oh my goodness, I didn’t realise that was also Schlesinger. I knew Kay Hanley sang the band’s songs, so I just assumed Letters to Cleo was behind everything. “Pretend to Be Nice” definitely was the standout track—and, like “That Thing You Do!”, it was played repeatedly during the movie without growing tiresome. Great…

Willem Dafoe nods sagely.
