I just renewed my PS5 subscription and purchased Bond First Light. Maybe this is in the wrong section. If so, mea culpa. 6 hours in and I am HATING IT. First- it's not Bond (but I could deal with that), second it wastes my time with piddly stupid side quests (find a lighter), and tells WAY...

Saw the whole thing. I LOVED the concept. I liked the black and white (yup-- I was that guy. It is NOIR). Here's what I did not like-- TOO LONG for the story (if it really had one-- it was a pastiche of ideas thrown together). I LOVED Li Jun Li (and that there was probably more time spent on...

not true?

When they are moving to take off, a shit ton (I think this one was going 104mph by ATF data). But that's a shit ton less than when they are full throttle mid-air in flight. Investigations concluded that the planes that hit the twin towers were traveling between 494mph and 586mph.

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/9028-il-grande-silenzio I am trying to catch up on the great spaghetti westerns that are harder to find/see 50+ years after they were made. This one defies explanation on many levels. Was it good? It was intense and unpredictable. 6/10 for it's beauty and...

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/223386-man-on-fire Looks wholly unnecessary, but more expansive then Denzel's version (and that one was a remake!) I'll give it a try. Maybe they will use some kind of formula for the amount of people Yahya Abdul-Mateen II's charcter will kill or mutilate...
