Casino Royal story....Mads on Daniel playing poker

Went to see Civil war the other day after seeing the promising trailer and having read some positive reviews. Struggling to find a single nice thing to say (Kirsten Dunst did a fine job, I guess). Complete snooze fest with shitty dialogue and poorly written characters that I really couldn’t have cared less about. I figured Alex Garland would mean some guaranteed quality, but guess not.

Finally found time to watch Oppenheimer yesterday. Could also have been a snoozer but I’m glad there’s one director one can still count on. Not really re-watchable but a pretty solid film and one hell of a cast. Didn’t feel like 3 hours at all.

Been holding out on Oppenheimer. Maybe a long flight…

I liked Civil War. The alliances are preposterous, but everything else was pretty good.

I love origin stories

Disappointed that MAX has this listed as a Halloween classic when it’s clearly a Christmas movie. Should be listed right next to Die Hard in December.

With both of them being released in the middle of the summer as well. (June 1984 for Gremlins and July 1988 for Die Hard)

Invasion of the Body Snatchers 1978 - I’ve never seen this one. Just a few minutes in, and I was taken out - I was alive in 1978 and I’ve watched a lot of TV and movies since then, but I’ve never seen a telephone like this:

Had a wall built in growing up. Only one I've ever seen. It was guaranteed for life. My Dad kept it into the 80's and made ATT (formerly known as Ma Bell) repair it when the retracting cord broke. I'm pretty sure they ended up telling him they would no longer support it.

Saw Joker: Folie à Deux tonight.
I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. I liked it a lot actually.
All the reviews I read beforehand pretty much bashed it to pieces. Folks wanted a copy of the first (I don’t blame em, Joker is an excellent film) but they got “a musical” instead and to them I say…

Watching a double feature of two of my favorite Christmas movies tonight.

Gremlins and Die Hard.

Die Hard

That was our first date! We re-watch it all the time.

Just saw Thor: Ragnarok again, (the prior time was YEARS ago when it was new, in theaters).

Here's my controversial non-chip-related opinion: That film was the best of all the MCU movies.

Discuss.

Definitely was top 5, and different and unique. But def can’t be the best…
