Ready or not. What a strange movie with multiple plot twists.

[Brandon]

Finally saw The Mule. Ok movie. A one time watch type. Probably the last movie I see Eastwood in seeing his age.

Pursuit of Happyness. Still one of my favorites. It has Kurt Fuller and one of the best endings I have ever seen.

Always forget about this thread

I consider myself a movie/tv junkie....

 

.... and its literally been years since i watched anything new.

I rewatch old movies all the time... and dont even really watch them

Newest one i can think of off the top of my head was zombieland 2. Pretty funny, and dont even remember when i actually sat and watched it

Ok, first one was better.

BUT... if you ever get a chance to see it.... the people of babylon.... so, sooo spot on for a certain segment of society today...

Watched the movie A Hundred Streets starring Idris Elba (from the show Luther) and Gemma Arteton among others.

Three different stories to follow within a few blocks of one another. 

I liked Elba in Luther, so I thought I'd give it a shot and it was ok. It held my interest. Good, interesting characters.

Finished S6 of The Vikings on Amazon
 

Spoiler

Started out weak and the 8 episodes were stretched out of about 6 IMO.

The ceremonies with all the costumes and procedure when they are struggling to keep going were dragged out to the point of boredom. I'm sure they had them, but not so elaborate.

It did finish strong and had some twists to it.

Still it appeared the cast mailed it in for long portions of it.

Solid B for me. Took an interesting approach to telling the story and jumping around in the timeline. Vince Vaughn and Liam Hemsworth are both good in it. The movie is shot in a bit of an odd way too, which I liked, but some might not. Also, there's an argument that can be made that this movie should just replace True Detective Season Two and we all pretend that True Detective Season Two never happened.

Set Apart: The Jim Abbott Story
So I notice on MLB.TV that because of the pandemic they have a new section of "premium" content, and decided to look through and see if anything interests me... and I find this gem.
I was at his debut game at the Big A.  
Met Jim in 1999 when he and Boras came into the bar I was working at in NB and had a beer. 
I had never seen this and it was pretty emotional for me...not sure where else it's available but it IS on MLB.TV
preview here..

I liked the time they spent with Doug Rader talking about Jim..he seems like a pretty cool dude these days, someone that would be fun to have a beer with.

Watched the first 2 episodes of Legends starring Sean Bean.. I like it so far.

  Reveal hidden contents

Sort of like the Bourne movies

Bean works deep cover and each time he takes on a persona... each one is called a "legend." He transforms himself into a completely different person to do his undercover work. 

Watched 5 episodes and I think I'm done. Just not into it.

[T.G.]

Watched the first episode of Sleeper Cell and debating if I'm going to keep watching. 

Watched the movie 90 Feet from Home. I give it 3 out of 5 stars. Shawn Michaels is in the flick...
