    Fo sho. My only gripe about Cloud Atlas is the makeup jobs, but you'll notice that immediately. Otherwise, awesome concept.

    It can't be worse than 'The Pest' or 'Freddy Got Fingered'

    Freddy got fingered was so dumb that it was funny. Tells that guy to shove the cheese sandwich "up his bum bum".

    You know what else is another stupidly great movie? Pootie Tang

    I'm not really even a fan of Loius CK's stand up. Would have never guessed he wrote and directed if I didn't know better.

    I have a confession. I went to see Maze Runner: Scorch Trials at a second run theater. It was exactly what I expected. It had a dumb script, the plot devices were expedient, and the death scenes cheesy and you could guess what was going to happen with regularity. I knew what I was getting into and I didn't care. I like anything post apocalyptic. I like sitting in theaters. I like rainy days.

    Just rented Trainwreck. Amy Schumer is so unlikeable that the movie was just mildly entertaining. Lebron was the best part for me and they barely used him.

    I'd give it a 3 out of 10.

    I wouldn't eat a broccoli and feces salad if a few mini Twix bars were hidden in it.

    Saw a couple of good documentaries on Netflix. One was Supermensh, a tongue in cheek, hilarious fluff film by Mike Myers on Alice Cooper's famous manager. Anybody who's been around the music business will love it. The other, and better one, is the Best Of Enemies, a contrasting study of the TV debate between Gore Vidal and William Buckley Jr, during the 1968 Democratic National Convention. It's an eye opening look at the nature of political discourse in the last half century and how both men were shaped by their times.

    That was really good! There are a few music industry documentaries that are great on there.

    If you like that one another good doc is Who Is Harry Nilsson? (And Why Is Everybody Talking About Him?) That might still be on Netflix. The Julien Temple Trilogy about English Punk Rock, The Filthy And The Fury, The Future Is Unwritten & Oil City Confidential should be required viewing for anybody that loves Rock and Roll. But I don't know if those are available on the Internet. Another great music doc is Be Here To Love Me, about Townes Van Zandt. But, that's a real heartbreaking one.... just like his music.

    The Wrecking Crew is fucking awesome! You'll like it.

    Muscle Shoales is also great!

    Yeah. I watched them. There's also supposed to be a Frank Zappa documentary coming out soon. Talk about a guy the modern world wouldn't get.

    Creed was excellent. The most like the first Rocky film, which I saw again recently and hadn't remembered what a gritty film it was. Stallone was excellent in this latest edition.

    Just watched Mad Max Fury Road. It was alright, but no where near as good as it's IMDB rating makes it seem. I generally respect their top 250 list, but this was not a good enough movie to be #150 on that list imo.
