“Escape Room” (FXM). Cross a typical real life escape room with the maze from “Cube”, and you’ve pretty much got this movie, right down to the smart girl who figures out the clues.
Nicely intense. It’s not terribly original—these kinds of films are all variations on a theme—but then so are heist flicks, and I enjoy quite a few of those. B+
We did the original Carpenter Halloween (1978), followed immediately by the Rob Zombie Halloween (2007) for fun and a comparison.
At this point in time the speed of his releases leaves a lot to be desired, he should finally get the books out!
It was watchable, except the daughters were bad, even knowing they were trying to emulate the young original Bill and Ted.Bill and Ted Face the Music
I liked the original movie when it first came out. This was the 2nd sequel nobody was asking for, and it delivered upon those expectations. What can I say, I was bored.
George R. R. Martin and Harlan Ellison are/were two authors who frustrated the living hell out of publishers. Ellison was more prolific, but he too took forever on some of his announced projects. He died with his story introductions to "The Last Dangerous Visions" still not completed. The previous volume was published in 1972.
The movie with my favorite line “my old enemy - stairs!”Kung Fu Panda 2, because, why not?
There are many great lines in both movies.The movie with my favorite line “my old enemy - stairs!”
This was really good. I enjoyed it a lot. I think it's way more enjoyable if you watched Sopranos, but it makes a lot of sense. The big innovation of Sopranos was bringing the psychological profile and group dynamics of these mobsters into spotlight. They make a really good job doing so (though it's a little too clean for reality). I found the Elavil (amitriptyline) part really interesting as it's a drug I used to prescribed a lot in a past life. The Elavil pamphlet features a really clean looking skinny housewife. One of the side effects of the drug is increased appetite and weight gain.Yep, we are on deck.
James Gandolfini's son playing him as the young Tony Soprano is kind of mind blowing. I mean, holy shit:

Yes please.
Trial of the Chicago 7 on Netflix. I liked it, while aware of Sorkin’s flaws. I didn’t notice characters repeating dialogue back and forth which is an improvement. They must have edited that stuff out.
Many years ago, HBO produced a version of this story in play form, which I watched over and over.
That’s one of the few movies I’ve seen advertised that appeals to me. Doesn’t look like the usual slasher movie. Did you see it at the theater?just watched Last Night in Soho it was pretty good I did not really know what it was about.
yes I go once a week. not a slasher at all. some good surprises. I try not to see too much about movies before I go.That’s one of the few movies I’ve seen advertised that appeals to me. Doesn’t look like the usual slasher movie. Did you see it at the theater?
