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.

Have your reservations and conspiracy theories, but don't justify them with concepts that defy physics: A mass the size of a marble moving at significant velocity could level the entire island.

I know, this is fairly pedestrian and sexist and completely minimizes the actual world-altering jimmies-rustling things going on all around... BUT Look how HD murders this poor girl (who, in another lifetime, would have been a completely amazing find to meet, enchant, bring home, etc...)...

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1151949-the-shadow-strays OMG... A little too long, but it's a hyper-violent, amazing martial arts film. Think "John Chick!" Only maybe with even better fight scenes, weapons, and gun-brawls. It's on Netflix. And, don't feel compelled to watch the entire...

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...

I've seen the original True Grit many years ago (won an Oscar for John Wayne). A Very different film in tone and purpose. The remake of Oldboy looks like an exercise in futility, is it even worth watching?

2010's True Grit: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/44264-true-grit I honestly loved it. Seemed far more straight-forward than any other Coen movie I have ever seen. Played straight, it was a great western with no real heroes. Bridges, as usual, is brilliant. He becomes characters more than he...

Truth be told, the core concepts of the show could still work. Plus, Chris Carter was a great idea man, but pretty poor with coherent world-building. So much of the "long arc" concepts in the original were either a complete hot mess or just made up as he went along. He was not a disciplined...

The Supergirl trailer... James Gunn sure knows how to make a trailer. NYU film school used to (maybe they still do) have a class on making an effective film trailer. But WTF; 1) How does Clark even know of his sister (cousin, whatever)?... 2) Do we really need to put an animal in jeopardy...

I thought so... Tough, Tom-boy almost goth/Trinity-esque.

What an a-hole. He is lucky Alan was kind to him. If he weren't a celebrity there would be no question that the neighbor was harassing a dad and his two children.

I thought it was great fun. it didn't even try to be anything other than a Die Hard rip-off with an insanely hot Daisy Ridley. It could have stood a little tighter pacing (like 30 minutes shorter or 30 minutes more of Daisy killing dudes). And yes, the script could have been written by AI or...

I read the book and it was "light reading" disguised as Carl Sagan. I enjoyed it. But I would say it's audience is closer to Harry Potter or "Doc Savage" level readers (Remember "Doc Savage?") I really don't know how they will make it into a compelling film, but I'll watch it when it gets to...

I am 100% certain I HAVE been there. But from the ground it was way less cool.

Me too!!!

Just added to my list! TY

He is a brilliant narrator . And a GREAT vampire. I love him. But he isn't Harry Dresden the way Dick Hill IS Jack Reacher!

I just ordered it. I have read or listened to every novel and short story. I LOVE Harry Dresden. He is an imperfect character/wizard in a world of big bads, he is pretty tame. But he has a heart of gold and he always feels like someone who "walks with you" literally rather than be "other...

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1233413-sinners Over-hyped... Reminded me of "from Dusk to Dawn" without as much charisma. Plus the ending-- the ending (not the post/during credit sequence) was unnecessary. A lot of elements to the film that made it enjoyable to watch, but in actually, it...

I am rewatching "Miami Vice." Although much of it doesn't age particularly well, the series is phenomenally groundbreaking in so many ways. Mann is really impressively ahead of his time (if not a producer of his own future-culture). Plus, some of the episodes and themes have me in awe. (check...

we are a failed society

Doctors get sued all the time. How is it that chiropractors don't have a line of attorneys (or coroners) following them around?

I'd hit both of them. And then mess with her psychopathology big time.
