CureTheSane Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 We had the power out on Sunday, so I gave a couple of my kids a verbal recital of The Terminator. They actually paid attention throughout, and one wanted to watch it when the power came back on lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinsane Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 Wasted 90 minutes watching The Belko Experiment. Can not even fathom why something like this is made, encouraged, etc... Pure drivel. A throwaway to avoided at ALL costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if Kyle Reese dies in T1, how can he still be alive in the future to be sent back to the past? on a different note I watched Collide (2016), fun action flick about robbers with lots of car chases, starring Ben Kingsley and Anthony Hopkins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was meant to me an annoying dad thing to do which kind of backfired when they listened right through my drivel. weird, in that normally they would tell me to shup up and leave rolling their eyes. Must have also been pretty bored I guess... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judas Priest what a bad bad movie, but unfortunately not in the good way. Truly the only redeeming moment was the credits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if we ever go through an "Escape From L.A." style global EMP situation, then those stories will become our Folklore and Mythology. I wish you had recorded it.

Any other m Like me, you'd probably be surprised at how well you can recite it. Scary how bored you get with the power out all day, no AC on a hot day, phones dying because no charge, no TV or music> Not sure why they decided to do maintenance or whatever on a Sunday. Next time maybe we'll plan ahead and go to the actual movie cinema lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so used to being able to use my computer phone and tv all at once, I go insane when I can't use atleast one of them. It's surprising how well I know most of the lines from alot of different movies. I guess after seeing them so many times it kind of gets stuck permanently in your head lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Freddy Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 "Black Sabbath" (1963) A cool, colorful horror anthology by Italian director Mario Bava, featuring the great Boris Karloff as your host for three spooky tales (he also stars in one): a nurse learns why you shouldn't steal from the dead, a woman is stalked via telephone, and an outsider learns of a family's vampire curse. Fun stuff, and of course it also inspired the name of a certain band you might have heard of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinsane Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 Cars 3 = very nice comeback to the franchise. The filtering in of Paul Newman dialogue was a Rogue 1 moment for sure. Â Valerian = Well done big budget sci fi film. Panned by critics but like always the box office does not dictate content quality. Binged the latest season of Shameless and it is still an excellent series. Â Also plowing through the final season of Workaholics. Funny show that has progressively gotten over the top and the guest stars are a nice touch especially Dennis Quade and Cary Elwes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CureTheSane Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 Was lying on the couch and Lara Croft Part 2 came on. Not sure if I'd seen it before. Bit corny at times but enjoyable enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the ones with Brendan Fraser were much better and more engaging.. 9th Company - A Russian war-drama about Soviet war in Afghanistan in the 80's. Nice movie, not as good as some classics like Platoon, Saving Private Ryan, or Full Metal Jacket ... but still nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Freddy Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 "Comix: Beyond the Comic Book Pages" (2016) This documentary examines the long history of the comic book industry and its impact on other forms of pop culture. Interviewees include Stan "The Man" Lee, Frank Miller, Neal Adams, John Romita Jr. and many more. There's nothing here that comic fans haven't seen in dozens of similar docs already, but I could listen to Stan tell stories of the old Marvel Bullpen forever so I enjoyed this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmMaLaYa Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Jeepers Creepers 3 (2017) I had no idea they were making another one. This one apparently takes place between the first and second. It's kinda meh. I really enjoyed the first one, It was alot creepier. Now I feel like it's lost it's originality. Another horror series that's going to drag on forever. I do like The Creeper though. If only to watch him kill people is worth watching these movies LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they left the movie at just the first one I think it would have been better. I don't want a whole storyline on The Creeper. I'd rather not know anything and just watch him slaughter everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Freddy Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 "Too Funny To Fail" (2017) A behind-the-scenes look at the strange saga of 1996's "The Dana Carvey Show," which tried to bring hip, late-night style counterculture sketch comedy to prime time... and failed miserably. After its legendary crash-and-burn, though, many of the show's young, unknown supporting cast and staff members ended up going on to much bigger things in the 2000s, like Steve Carell, Louis C.K. and Stephen Colbert. I had only the vaguest memories of the "Dana Carvey Show," but this doc is packed with plenty of clips from the program to fill in the gap. "Too Funny to Fail" is an entertaining study of a show that was too hip for the room in '96 but would probably be a pretty big hit if it premiered today.

metaltrekman Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 Just finished watching a Netflix "mini series". A western called "Godless". A great story and a very good movie. Really enjoyed this one. Its seven episodes, each about an hour. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Freddy Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 "The Image Revolution" (2014) In 1992, seven of Marvel Comics' most popular artists abruptly left to start their own independent company - Image Comics. Todd McFarlane, Rob Liefeld, Marc Silvestri and the rest changed the comic book industry landscape forever when titles like Spawn, Youngblood, WildC.A.T.S., The Savage Dragon, and CyberForce became instant best sellers and left "the big two" companies eating Image's dust. The ride didn't last forever, though, and this documentary shows not only their rapid rise, but their near-collapse in the late 90s and subsequent rebirth in the '00s thanks to new series like The Walking Dead.  Overall this is a cool, entertaining history lesson for comic fanboys.

CureTheSane Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Saw Geostorm the other day.Average, but better than I was led to believe. Great cast though. Worth a watch. Also saw Daddy's Home 2. As usual the best bit were on the trailer, but still a fair movie. About the same enjoyment as the first one, but more predictable.
