The Movie Thread...

Not a movie, but so totally worth the $5.99 for the 1 month subscription to Hulu...:

they rebooted the Animaniacs after 20 years.

still the same humor, still taking jabs at everyone. Same voice actors as before, but you can hear the voices are a little different...but again the same. The animation is improved, but reminiscent of the original series

still getting a chuckle out of it.

Just watched Wonder Woman '84, and I want the last two and half hours of my life back!
Not terrible, just bad. It's a B movie with a big budget. The original WW was pretty good for me up until the Big Bad final boss level scene. This one was just... WTF throughout it. It should go straight to the MST3K crew so they can do a riff on it.
It's that cheesy and bad and illogical throughout.
Nice shout out to the DC hard core scene, that's about it. And Kristin Wiig. She's great. Here they both are so you don't need to watch it now:

Yeah, quite the letdown.

I just watched it myself with my two girls - it was a cheesy superhero movie. I had low expectations, so I enjoyed it. Who doesn't like seeing a superhero take out the bad guys with a lasso?

Thought the opening scene was fun!

More in the DC Punk scene

We ran the 3 indiana jones movies over last couple days.

Interesting I was reading how they all hated Temple of Doom because it was too Dark and it was actually Sean Connery that talked Ford back in for the 3rd. Sean was pretty good in IJ:TLC

Indy movies are the opposite of Star Trek: The odd numbered ones are good!

I figured there had to be some personal connection for Patty, those shirts/posters were too specific!
I love me some Bad Brains...
 
Watched the first episode, Mangrove, of the Small Axe anthology (Amazon Prime) last night. Liked it but needed the subtitles for the West Indies accents. Pretty heavy true-based story. Not your comic book kiddie flick fair.
 
Lots of good actors including Laurence Fox as Gell who I've always liked (as an actor) since I first noticed him as DS James Hathaway in Inspector Lewis. This, coincidentally, is another role that takes place in Oxford. He is a very interesting person, although quite controversial in real life.

Watched:

Klaus, animated Christmas movie. Might be my new go to for xmas.

Ava, Jessica Chastain action flop. Gina Davis monologue was the only highlight. Rest just B film. Surprised, considering who was in it.

Soul, I thought it was good. Music and animation were excellent. I found no fault in the story or see any of the cultural outrage I read about. What a shock. ‍

Totally gonna check put the Professor and the Madmen. Those 2 could end up making a great movie.

Not yet. Waiting for it to stream. Top of my watch list.

6 Underground
Opening chase scene is the most intense and bloody I have ever experienced.
If you can get past every form of "F" Bomb on the planet it is a great movie...

Lost in Space
Thought it was a movie. Turns out it is a NetFlix Original Series.
Acting starts out rough and almost corny...
Every Episode is, "How the hail do we got out of THIS Mess!"
Got to the point we binge watched all two seasons available!
Waiting for Final Season 3 to come out to Stream.

Tried watching 6 underground.. but was a bit too over the top for me right off the bat.

I watched the first episode of lost in space as well, it's on my list to revisit though.

We just watched both seasons of "his dark materials"
Much better adaptation than the golden compass movie. And closer to the books

Also starting in cobra kai....

My daughter signed up for Hulu. I logged in a searched for a movie....need to sign up for some premium channel to get it o_O.
Ok, searched a second movie, same result asking me to sign up for a different premium channel to see it o_O.

Im assuming they have included content, however at this point I turned it off and decided Hulu was a big waste of my time and her money. If it comes up on their search it should be included and not try to sell me something.

NETFLIX FTW. If its on there, its included!

And I can use ROKU for pay movies if that's what I want.

Yeah I know, im a cranky old man. And I'm ok with that. ;)
