Alien Romulus
 

Loved the first one. Loved the second one. But for the love of god, please put this series out of it's misery. It's been soooo bad since the alien impregnated a dog.

Meh a tell yah seh yah haffi listen close, but yuh cyaan mek it out.

It’s basically just broken English in the movie. Real Jamaican patwah is a bit harder, but I think they made it more understandable for the audience. I’ve been hearing it almost my whole life, and I can understand it and speak it fairly well.

If you listen to a lot of dancehall music (which I doubt you do) you’ll get a better feel for it. To me it’s super hot.

The kid took me to go see The Fall Guy for Father's Day. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Completely over the top and ridiculous, and I loved it all.

Really wanted “The Bikeriders” to be good but was super disappointed. The visuals and aesthetics of the biker culture were good but don’t go in expecting “Sons of Anarchy”. Really should’ve been called “Bikers talk about their feelings “.

Thoroughly enjoyed Monkey Man

Its streaming on Peacock for those who forgot to cancel after the Chiefs game last season

I watched it and for probably the first half of the movie I wasn't really all that into it, but holy shit it picks up in the last half. Damn good movie.

Not super new but watched the movie Blackberry. It's on Hulu

Pretty good story. Neat looking back on that time. Some of the behind the scenes business stuff was interesting if true.

Watched Wag The Dog last night and it perfectly illustrates the power of the media in our country and those who would abuse that power.

Everything on tv scripted and staged.

Watched:

Beverly Hills Cop Axel F

Fit in perfect with the other 3. So glad they kept the band together for this final run.

Sisu

Fun watch and a bit of Quentin Tarantino violence. Enjoyed it!

Anything but a new movie, but I watched Sicario again on a whim last night.

Goddamn what a brilliant movie. From the acting to the story to the pacing to the music. Dark AF, but it works and leaves a real mark. Just perfect, imho.

The ending is great... "He isn't going to... uhhh... yep... he is going to" /me

Swing Vote with Kevin Costner, as the dude who's vote will decide the election.

Hilarious and poignant! They made fun of the right and the left so it was great. The candidates suddenly moving off hardline party positions on abortion and environmental issues was hysterical.

Kesley Grammer as the President was perfect.

Did not view the posts so if repost. sorry!

Beverly Hills Axel F

Typical BHC loved that they had original Taggert and Rosewood! I really thought this was well done and I enjoyed.

SISU

This was Yes, over the top BUT, I enjoyed the hell out of it! :thumb:

Yup. That brought an audible "Damn!" out of me the first time I saw it.

I knew Denis Villeneuve directed it, but I hadn't realized Taylor Sheridan wrote it. Talk about a power move in Hollywood, pairing those two together.

SISU was gory Nazi killing fun. It's a great "turn your mind off" action flick.

Escaping the hot afternoon, my wife and I took in the matinee showing of Thelma
It was a really enjoyable movie, I laughed out loud (for real) several times. The story is of a grandma who gets scammed out of some money and decides she is going to get it back. The movie has a vibe somewhat like Little Miss Sunshine.

If you love your grandma you will like this movie. If you don't love your grandma you are probably a Raiders fan.

The Long Game
 

Really enjoyed "The Long Game" on Netflix last night. I like Dennis Quaid

Bad Boys Ride or Die is a fun watch!

Netflix Land of Bad is AWESOME!

Thanks for the recommendation. I enjoy about anything with Russel Crowe and he appears to have been enjoying some mac&cheese and lots of pie. :D

Has anyone seen Twisters yet?

I'll take "Movies you clearly wait until they stream." for $400, Alex.

Looks cheesy and dumb but everyone who has saw it has loved it. High audience and RT score.

I got talked into seeing it last night.

It was better than I expected it to be, but even that said, it was pretty meh. It's an ok watch in the theater (and it might actually make it better with the immersive theater experience) but if you don't catch it there, you're not going to miss much waiting for it to hit streaming.

And I don't feel like I'm spoiling much by saying if that band of weather ever descended on this planet, people would automatically be calling it a Wrath of God type of event. It sort of took me out of the movie, but I knew what the movie was going to be, so it wasn't jarring.

Twisters was decent. Impossible to top the original.

I really can’t decide if Glen Powell is a good actor or not. He was good as his character in Top Gun Maverick, was good in Hit man but pretty average in this one

Watched "Long Legs" last weekend. Thought it was pretty good. Cage did fantastic. His character was creepy, and i dont say that often.

My only complaint about the movie is that i wish Cage's character had more screen time. Would recommend if you're into those Detective/Murder Mystery w/ Super natural elements kinda things.

Unlike other creepy serial killer/mystery movies, this one leans heavier on the super natural side. Totally worth a watch.

I have seen 973 out of 9,034 Nicolas Cage movies. So I am on my way but I will add this one to the list as well.

If you liked the turn your brain off and go in inebriated 'Scary Movie' franchise then 'Movie 43' is worth a watch.

Amazon Prime.

8/10 (with * above)

Watched the trailer... talk about an all star cast.

You should watch The Pentagon Wars with Grammer as a General - he's so great in those comic roles that are supposed to have a little gravitas to them.

The cast in this movie is just outstanding

Megan Fox has something going on with her face but damn.... that body of hers is rockin.

A year or so ago I re-watched this out of the blue, that is a really friggin excellent movie.

The Bikeriders (I watched it on Peacock) is pretty good

Story of the Vandals motorcycle club in Chicago

Nothing Earth shattering or amazing, but I thought it was stylized nicely, cast and performed well, and was a nice easy watch. Thought they did a solid job of showcasing how each generation gets more extreme. These guy brawled and partied then the younger dudes got home from 'Nam and changed the culture. I feel thats something applicable across the board of life

Its got Tom Hardy and some other puffy lipped **** boy all the ladies like and Daryl from The Walking Dead has a small part

Check it out

Watched one of the few Arnold movies I had never seen before last night....Eraser.

LMAO

What a rollicking good time, although you can see the cracks forming in the cheesy 80s action hero Schwarzenegger as he tries to transition into a different era of filmmaking.

I think the best part was his mob buddies coming up in the earth mover and killing all the russians LMAO

Some really bad CGI too but that somehow made it better.

The plane sequence was ****ing rad. One of the best setpieces in any Arnold movie.

You're luggage!

Also loved the constant sexual tension between Vanessa Williams and Arnold. I bet he ****ed her.

Great movie. "I can't believe you nailed me with this cheap piece of metal." ROFL

Yeah Caan was awesome. Cromwell's suicide scene was terrific, felt a lot like something out of Robocop or Total Recall.

Watched "The Gray Man" last night on Netflix. 2022 movie but really enjoyed!

not gonna spend time searching but...

is the newest snow white trailer not the biggest backflip in hollywood history?

talk about gaslighting your own.

https://www.imdb.com/video/vi3574384...f_=ext_shr_lnk

I dont mind her face at all. I'd **** it.

Twisters was really good. Predictable but very enjoyable cheese.

The Bikeriders on Peacock

This was pretty good, a bit slow in the back half at times. I like the story is told through the photographer for parts and Jody Comer's character. Felt a bit like Goodfella's when the ladies are all sitting around talking about the men and how they act, etc. Neat story of how the "bike club" begins and slowly transforms into more of a gang.

It has a great cast. All sorts of people in there like Michael Shannon, Boyd Holbrook, Normal Reedus along with the main characters (Tom Hardy, Austin Butler)

Watched Predator again today

It's made it past the "new" moniker, but I'm about 3/4ths of the way through Furiosa, and so far, I've enjoyed it. Hemsworth plays an excellent psychopathic megalomaniac.

Any one hyped to see the new "The Crowe" movie?

Watched it this weekend. ****ing loved it. Thought it was awesome. So bad ass. Even my wife liked it and she hates action movies.

Nope

The Crow began and ended with the original

Nah. A 2024 version of that is bound to be super gay.

Just watched "Knox Goes Away" on HBO. I will give it a solid 8.5/10. Very good movie. Both the wife and my mom loved it too. Very rare for all 3 of us to be on the same page when it comes to movies.

For whatever it's worth, the Critical Drinker called it the worst movie of 2024 and after watching his review- I have zero interest.

While it's not a new movie - I finally got around to watching Terrifier 2.

Now, normally gore and things of the like do not bother me that much, but who thinks of this shit when it comes to those movies? It's .... A LOT. LMAO

Agreed. I don’t mind some gore, even gratuitous amounts from time to time, but that movie was just too much. Felt like they were more interested in shock value than creating a good scary movie.

Watched "The Union" on Netflix with Hallie Berry. I enjoyed it.

Im a fan. Really liked the scene in the laundry room (Iirc).

Watched Furiosa last night. It was pretty good and the wife liked it too. Another solid 8.5/10 I would say.

Quiet Place sequel....meh. Kind of a bait and switch from the trailer. First one was better.

You talking about the second one with Emily Blount and Cilian Murphy or the latest one (third one) with Lupita?

Wait there are three? LMAO

Gotta go watch the second one now.

Yeah, first one with John Krasinki and Emily Blount on their farm.

Second one with Blount and Cilian Murphy. Setting changes a few times in that one since they’re on the move.

Third one has Lupita. Looks like it takes place mostly in NYC.

Yeah, I thought the second one was pretty good still.

Ha ha ha ha.... WTFF???

I refuse to watch a beautiful actress debased like that.

ROFL

SCOOT! Scoot McNairy! I loved that dude in Halt and Catch Fire.

Watched Deliverance on Netflix this past weekend.

Two things:

1) It sucked.

2) Glenn Close. Woof.

this!

Catching Dust was enjoyable

What did you watch it on? The trailer looked decent.

amazon..6.99$...Starlights plastic surgery kind of works in this one...hollowed out face etc

I caught Rebel Ridge on Netflix last night. Not too bad in spite of it having certain obvious flaws, and it had a little bit of a Jack Reacher vibe going on with it.

Looked more like a First Blood type movie.

Not a bad comp, either.

Somewhere between the two, probably.

I enjoyed it too. I tuned in for dudes getting their shit wrecked. Stayed for the performances.

Its only new to me, from 2022... but The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent was absolutely outstanding, just finished it

LOVED IT

A movie about a movie, within a movie that becomes the movie... an absolutely brilliant script, Hollywood needs way more of this kind of comedy/drama/satire mix all neatly wrapped up at the end

Bet you even Tarantino is jealous

Cage and Pascal are brilliant here, this movie was a genuine work of art

A Quiet Place: Day One was pretty good, though a lot deeper than I was expecting.

Lupita is a terminal cancer patient. I didn’t catch that in the trailers.

This looks like it could be worth the time

Wolfs on Apple TV with Clooney and Pitt looks like it will be fun.

A sci-fi fix

I AM BACK BABY!

Its from 2022 but Bull is pretty enjoyable

British crime thriller, ultra violent

Its free on Peacock

Someone post the Sinners trailer. I’m there opening night.
