Finished Fallout and thought it ended well. Will watch the next season.

Started S2 of Reacher. Forgot how much I liked this show. So far, I'm liking S2 more than S1.


Anyone with a...

Saw an ad for House of the Dragon. S2 is set to premiere June 16.

The 4th and final season of ST: Lower Decks is set to stream in the autumn. I was pretty ambivalent about starting this show but...

That's the one game I never got around to playing. :doh

Where did you see the series? I will definitely check it out.

Special Ops: Lioness. I had been eyeing this one for a while and finally pulled the trigger last night. It was created...

Given how Steiger was a method actor, he probably did that to show that his character was from the future. ;)

If you have a relative or friend who gets TCM through their cable subscription, you can use their cable login to access TCM's app. I use my brother's, so that's how I can stream TCM.

Holy shit!...

Didn't care for Jubal and I thought 3:10 to Yuma would have been a lot better had Ford not been in it.

I don't know what it is but I just do not like that man.

You know, Klonk, watching movies is like eating. If you continually subsist on meat and potatoes, soda, and junk food, you're gonna get fat and lazy. Try eating some leafy green and cruiciferous...

I went to see that movie when it was released just because Jonathan Pryce was in it as I felt he did an incredible job in Brazil. I thought he was very good in Something Wicked... I agree with your...

The Sheepman (1958) on TCM. In gorgeous Metrocolor.

Not sure why I watched it since it stars Glenn Ford, whom I've never liked for some reason. Also stars Shirley MacLaine, Leslie Nielson, Edgar...

Thanks Guy, but you might want to re-read my post. I'm not talking about previews. In fact, I have autoplay turned off for everything:
...

You've never heard of Robert Zemeckis or Bob Gale, the guys who wrote 1941, Used Cars, and the Back to the Future series?

Or Michael Kozoll, creator of Hill Street Blues?

Or how about David...

I hate that. In those instances you describe, I'd hit the back button that takes me back 10 or 15 or however many seconds and then pause. It's a real pain in the ass but at least I'd know what people...

I just read about that the other day. Can't remember where but I think it was one of those "ten best movies on..." whatever streaming app they mentioned. Their write-up piqued my interest.

I felt like the director's cut moved the movie farther into the realm of sci-fi, which I really appreciated.

I'll have to look for JC's version of The Abyss. Thanks.

I had read something about how little CGI was used and wondered about that until I realized Tom Cruise was probably sitting in the back seat of the plane. The way they filmed him was really...

Joe (2013). RT gave this 86%. IMDb gave this a 6.8/10. I think IMDb's rating is about what I'd give it. Nick Cage and the kid, Tye Sheridan, both give very good performances but this movie is...

Finnish? I would have wagered he was Danish. Funny thing is he was born in Sweden. But you're right; both of his parents are Finnish.

I don't know why but I wondered if The Host was directed by him. Maybe because he's the only South Korean director I know. Or maybe it's because I had seen that movie listed in his filmography and...

Top Gun: Maverick. Not sure why I watched this because I never cared for the first one. This was considerably better and I liked it, in spite of myself.

Aliens: The Director's Cut. I almost never...

:up

Out of curiosity, I checked his acting credits. According to IMDb, he has 322.

His first role (uncredited) was in 1940 in The Sea Hawk. His last was on Falcon Crest in 1984.

The man certainly...

Now you know how some of us felt about Hamilton and Schumacher.

Jesus. Was Whit Bissel in everything? :lol

I haven't had a chance to listen to this, yet, but wanted to share the podcast of an episode of the NPR show 1A (left click to listen, right click to download): How F1 Is Shifting Gears In The US

:lol

Reminds me of the scene from That 70s Show when Eric went to see Annie Hall with his mom; this should start at the relevant scene (5:25):

Wow.


Double wow.

:O

I say we revoke his Classics Cinephile membership card.

All those in favor?

:p

I had no idea what it was about. Now I'm really interested in seeing it. Thanks for the rec.

Young Sheldon. I come and go with this show, mainly because I've grown weary of Sheldon. The rest of the characters are fine (other than Craig T Nelson's). But I'm mentioning this show because you...

That's Headley!

I'd rather oil up Emilia Clarke.

I liked it. I was disappointed to find out it was a limited series, though, because I felt like there was more of a story to be told.

Searching...

How was Past Lives? I've seen the trailer and thought it looked interesting.

This Friday, March 1:

Funny thing about Susan Dey: I always thought she talked kinda funny on the Partridge Family. It was only after I started "getting hopped up on the reefer" (as Dave Letterman put it) that I thought,...

Ahhh. Now it all makes sense. (I had a crush on Tatum O'Neal)

Matt Dillon's character was such a little shithead in that movie. It's interesting how he often played shitheads.

In addition to the "arty" and esoteric stuff, I also enjoy animated family movies. Well, last night I watched the Spielberg directed The Adventures of Tintin.

It was a bit frenetic in parts but,...

2.5 out of 5 or out of 10?

I didn't bother to watch the trailer but it looks like it's about a grumpy cat.

IKR? I can't remember who but there was one actress who commented that he could always get her to say things she wouldn't normally say, with lots of innuendo.

I used to watch the show all the...

I was going to comment on the supposed correlation between deaths and ovals and forgot.

I personally don't think the problem was with short ovals... in general. Shortly after the CART/IRL split,...

A lot of the lower attendance can also be attributed to the CART/IRL split. Initially, most fans sided with CART even though nothing in CART could compete with the Indy 500. Eventually, most of the...

CBS fucked up letting him go.

Did you ever see his interview with Sarah Shahi? OMG, she is so sexy in this interview. Plus, she might be a little tipsy and things get a little out of hand. But the...

Not to be pedantic but Michigan is what they called a "D" oval, because the back straight was actually straight. Until '96, fastest laps at Michigan were always faster than anywhere else, where cars...

As great as I think it is, I also recognize that it's a load of "fun" when X) out of your mind.

In fact, reports of the time made note of the number of young people going to see it tripping....

I've never seen a perfect film. But 2001 comes very close and definitely is my #1.

Well, actually, I have two #1s:

Objectively speaking, I think 2001: A Space Odyssey is the greatest movie ever...

Okay, I'll bite. What are the other four?

If you do, pay close attention to the editing during the scene when Montag gets the call from the woman telling him to get out of the apartment. I've never seen anything like it, before or since.
...

Justified was very good, of course.

The most memorable have to be MASH and Newhart. Indeed, Newhart's is regularly cited as the best ever.

I know a lot of people didn't care for Seinfeld's. I...

:lol

Yeah, I mentioned Deadloch some time ago. Great show. But follow Jerol's advice.

A Murder At The End Of The World I have not seen but did put on my watchlist, I think.

I know a guy who's a professional guitarist, who's recorded numerous albums with his first band, in addition to solo albums – and who's reasonably well known on this site, in fact – who told me...

That's my favorite DF album.


There are only three songs on that album I like. I thought the album title was their most apropos. In other words, they recorded a bunch of songs they'd never...

I got ya all set, Jed, if you don't mind used copies, which it looks like you don't.

At the very least he was a gentleman scholar. I saw a documentary where he was discussed in depth (I think it was The Sunshine Makers, which is available on Amazon). The dude was self-taught in sound...

What don't you have, yet?


Oh I'm sure. DF lives in NYC and concerts there are a given. You just might have to wait a year or two. Besides, they're currently touring with the Eagles and who would...

Wow, check out all the former F1 and current IRL drivers entered into Le Mans this year, all in hypercars and in alphabetical order:

Sébastien Bourdais
Sébastien Buemi
Jenson Button

In the words of Scooby, "ruh-roh".
