I want to live in the future

Pretty darned good film. I was amazed how they transformed (without CGI) a block or two of New England (one town at a time) into the 1970's. They must spend a day clearing out all the cars and bringing in vintage cars to get a few 6-second shot of Gill, Massachusetts (or was that Gardner or...

That looks terrifying

She is impressive!

The first movie was dumb. But it was released at a time when special effects were taking a quantum leap. The formula was enough to bring people to the movies stars+fx=$$$ Plus I am pretty sure it got the "summer release" spot. We should start ranking movies and the "R" scale for retarded (aka...

The link I put in the post is the entire "American Experience" episode-- free on you tube.

These days you would say he "was on the spectrum." He probably was. As for barely functioning- he could go out on a horse with only a bar of chocolate, some water and whiskey and survive for days. He was pretty darn functional.

Oppenheimer. It's an exceptional film. But it is not a good movie. Beautiful to look at with remarkable costume design (I mean GREAT suits). But it is neither a good biography nor does it take a stand on Oppenheimer the man. There is a strange schism about 30% into the movie when I thought I...

WTF-- There is so much BAD TV. Let's cancel great TV (yet again).

OMG It's like I am having acid flashbacks...

Are "The Beekeeper," "The Baker" and "The Retirement Plan" actuality identical movies?

I should snap some pictures, but I would likely get killed (or cause someone to be killed) if I tried. It's unbelievable how bad road surfaces are around here. And, on some major 4 lane roads, you CAN NOT avoid hitting at least one (and hoping that the one you chose to hit isn't the worst one).

Road conditions this year are the worst I have ever encountered. I do mostly highway driving. Potholes on major highways and, especially, potholes and railroad crossing on secondary roads. Snow/ice covering them is a big problem. Biggest reason, I think, are the 20" tires with no significant...

More Golf R tire drama today... Ripped a hole in my Nexen snow and cracked yet another rim. Dealer replaced the rim but could not locate four matching performance snows. And yes-- there is 14" of fresh snow. So the solution was 2 Nexens in the front and 2 continental snows in the back with...

I know nothing much about the MCU vs Marvel universe. All I know is I am pretty sick of just about anything in the superhero genre. How are these costumes NOT Spiderman/Spiderwoman? I saw the trailer and it oozes spiderman (with short clips of women doing Peter Parker moves). I'm lost. No...

I had to go see this because of the posts above. I can only describe it as "crack cocaine cinema." I'm probably not any worse off for taking one hit, and man did it feel sooooo good. It is hands down the dumbest Jason Statham movie of all time. But that's not really a fatal flaw (double...

Wait--- that makes him not an actor!

I posted about it in "Movies I Have Watched Recently." As much as it had enormous potential, it suffered from being poorly directed. The story is controversially ambivalent as it depicts a pretty transparent perspective of toxic feminism. But it also shows how nice, heterosexual men who resort...

Title: Cat Person Tagline: Based on the sensational New Yorker short story. Genre: Thriller, Drama, Comedy Director: Susanna Fogel Cast: Emilia Jones, Nicholas Braun, Geraldine Viswanathan, Isabella Rossellini, Hope Davis, Christopher Shyer, Liza Koshy, Josh Andrés Rivera, Melissa...

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14647404/ Cat Person-- Even though it is a flawed film with, at times, painful direction, it should be required viewing. by everyone. I am surprised at the level of transparency with which it deals with toxic feminism. Being an average, or in-fact, an above...
