I don't even follow movies. New batman?? Interesting!

 

So far I enjoyed TellTale stories about Batman more then any of the movies. (Though Dark knight was pretty bad ass)

 

This this the one with that actor everyone and their mom thought was not a match??

 

Now this I have to see.

Nothing wrong with that! There are some amazing movies from back in the day...

 

Try some of these:

 

The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)

When Worlds Collide (1951)

Forbidden Planet (1954)

Them! (1954)

The Day the Earth Caught Fire (1961)

The First Men in the Moon (1964)

 

And so many more... I'm a bit of a collector. ;)

 

These old movies may not have had the effects we have to day, but they had one thing Hollywood has lost.  Good writing.

Saw Death On the Nile last night.   Looks good, acting was good, just not as much mystery as you'd expect from newer movies/stories.  I'd say overall it's a 7/10 if I had to give it a score.

The Adam Project... quite a bit of fun! 

 

Reading previous posts also gets me nostalgic! Gattaca = Epic! Highlander = Epic, but is quite dated now... but still, what a movie!!!! My all time favourite is still The Abyss ..... 

Finally saw a quiet place 2, I had it on my to watch list forever. 

 

Pretty much what I expected. 8/10 overall, it'll be interesting to see what they do for the 3rd movie.

Moonfall. Completely ridiculous as most of these types of movies are but if you turn your brain off as you hit play then it's a fun movie.

 

Agreed..... it was fun, as long as you dont start trying to sciencesplain it!! :D Overall, i did enjoy it as a cold evening on the couch with popcorn movie.

Watched - 

 

Death on the Nile (2022) - Streaming on Hulu - IMDB - This movie was soooo boring.  Haven't seen the 1978 version to compare it to.  I recommend it if you're suffering from insomnia.

 

The Bubble (Netflix) - IMDB - This was a stupid but funny movie.  Recommended.

First I wanted to thank you from saving me from wasting time on Death on the Nile... Which I was planning to watch today. 

 

Then I saw you recommended The Bubble and my decision to listen to you advice went down the toilet. 

 

Hahaha

Anyone can recommend an adventure - but not indiana Jones?

 

Kinda like that Rock movie which I can't even remember the name of... I think Jungle Cruise???

 

Basically I want jungle or other exotic location and some theme - like treasure hunting.

 

 

I wonder if Tomb Raider moves aged well or not...

Older movies or newer? 

 

There are the Jolie Tomb Raider movies but also a new one in 2018 with Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft.

 

Enders Game, Star Gate, Mummy Movies (4 I think).  Pirates of the Caribbean. The Jewel of the Nile.  National Treasure (2 movies)......

Just watched the newest Scream redo/sequel, 7/10.   They kept trying to fake you out with the jump scares in this one, doing the whole music bit and having as many as 3-4 fake outs back to back.  It got pretty annoying at one point IMO.  I understand the music is suppose to build tension and grab your complete focus but it's a dumb giveaway that you're either going to get a jump scare or a fake out now.

 

I much rather movies ditch the music and go with more eerie quiet and normal room sounds.  I think that works better.

Spoiler

the stupidest part was when she walked through the house randomly shooting through closed doors with people in the house

 

I hated Moonfall.

1. Even after the "crazy" guy is proven right on every count, they continue to shame him as, and treat him like, a nutcase right up until he sacrifices himself.



2. The blatant "our friend, China" references. It tells you exactly who controls Hollywood.

I will have to rewatch national treasure 🪙

Choose or Die (Netflix) - IMDB

 

Nope...go watch paint dry or something.  Maybe it was ok for the first 15-20 minutes...I was sensing some SAW vibes with a paranormal twist ... but it quickly turned into a mess.  Forgettable ...
