    That's because they don't make VHS tapes of these anymore

    They had the same sort of crap on them. Still have the machine though, down in the storage loft in the shop. Might need to sell a truck load of that stuff, getting a little close in there.

    That was his major resurgence after he spent years in (France?) AND his quest to do serious drama He always had macho talent. That film was not a critics' favorite

    I loved that film, and the book. Actually one of the few I bought on order years back. If a movie gets panned by the critics, it usually sparks my interest

    I try not to. I said something about the title and she pressed me. I forgot she can't let a comment like that go.

    It sucks when you van guess where a movie is going after the first 10 minutes. It's difficult to find any surprises at the local multiplex these days.

    Like The Revenant? As soon as that movie started I leaned over and said, I bet you 10 minutes into this movie somebody gets attacked by a bear.

    13 Hours was decent. Definitely Michael Bay's best movie in a long time and one of his best ever, leaps and bounds better than the garbage heap that is Pearl Harbor.

    Saw Creed today. It was just a continuation of the Rocky story but the casting was friggin perfect. Good movie. How the hell did Michael B. Jordan not get a nomination for best actor in that role! He and Stallone were great. Get some Vin Diesel type in that role and would have been terrible.

    Hail, Caesar!

    A very bad, disjointed movie.
