    The scene on Mt. Rushmore is one of the great scenes ever.

    Just saw Black Panther. It was damned good. The final battle between Boswick and Jordan could have been better. It was to quick. Could have been better coregraphed. I wanted a panther fight and we got a kitty cat fight.

    Wife and I just watched Three Billboards. I still haven't seen most of the movies up for the award this year but if there is a better movie than this one I can't wait to see it.

    Double Lover was mediocre.

    Annihilation was pretty good.

    Black Panther was great.

    Anyone a fan of Blue Chips? Great bball movie in my book. I remember seeing it in the theater in ‘93 and just picked up the dvd recently. Still holds up. I liked that actual nba players were in it, even in background roles. Especially liked Nick Nolte’s temper tantrum scene at the start.

    Watched "The Big Sleep" with Bogie and Bacall. Meh. They lit the screen up but the story was a pretty standard noir. Also plan to go see Black Panther tomorrow.

    Nope it’s pitchforks and fire for you forever!

    Ya know, i like hoosiers but never liked it enough to buy it. I think the scene of Hackman kissing the seemingly 20-year younger female is what ruined it for me.:smiley-puke:

    I loved The Bridge on the River Kwai, although the survivors hated it. The Japanese and Korean guards simply weren't that human.

    The Caine Mutiny was great.

    Try Mr. Roberts for one of the greatest movies of any genre.
