    Buy the ticket, take the ride (2006) 7/10

    Interesting documentary on Hunter S Thompson, not bad but I preferred 2008's "Gonzo". This one had more celebrity interviews which was interesting.


    Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1997) 8/10

    I saw this in the theatre and nearly walked out, now I can't get enough of it.

    Cats (2019) 1/10
    I tapped out after 26 minutes, I admit that if it got good reviews I'd have avoided it altogether but my daughter is a fan of the music, which she claims they totally screwed up. The CGI is terrible, jarring and discordant, at one point a character's leg goes missing.

    Watched Birds of Prey last night. I enjoyed it. they were trying to hard to follow the Dead Pool formula but it was still a fun ride. seems to me they took Harley's sexiness away with the new look and outfit. I mean she's still hot, but the outfits and hair weren't all that sexy. they should have just called it the Emancipation of Harley and left out birds of prey, Black canary, Huntress and Cassandra Cane were all just one dimensional plot devises. they didn't really serve any other purpose than for Harley to play off of. 7/10

    Pet Graveyard (2019) free on Tubi

    Even though the title makes it sound like a Pet Cemetery ripoff it actually is a Flatliners/Hell Raiser ripoff

    Not the worst movie I've ever seen but nowhere near good.

    we watched 1917 last night. what a well done movie. really showed a bit of the horrors of trench warfare in WW1. 10/10

    commenting on Brimstone again, my wife actually had nightmares after we watched it, she was so disturbed by it. the preacher was really a sick, twisted and sadistic monster. Guy Pearce really did an outstanding job in the role

    Just watched Vivarium, very strange 6/10. Weird but compelling, you just have to see how it ends.
    Currently watching Underwater, Abyss/Alien vibe, I'll let you know how it pans out.

    Brimstone. It’s a Western starring Dakota Fanning, Guy Pearce and Kit Harrington (yes, Jon Snow).



    Not for the weak as it’s one of the most disturbing and violent Westerns I’ve ever seen.

    Guy Pearce plays a sadistic psychopath preacher. Let me tell you right now, he’s arguably the most evil villain I’ve ever seen on screen.

    It’s on Amazon Prime right now.

    I think we'll see more stuff going right to streaming at a more expensive initial price. Movie theaters are going to hate it.

    I am wondering with everything going on, is Hollywood in a time out until further notice? will this hurt the entertainment industry?

    Filming movies, tv show episodes and daytime soap opera’s. Currently the movie theaters are closed until further notice and my local shopping mall is closed for at least 2 weeks, although Target is open, I was told because they have a grocery section so they need to stay open, but I believe the store times have changed.

    I finally got around to watching Joker. good movie, as others have said, very dark. 9/10. not really one for repeat viewings, its that dark

    they will be releasing new films on demand, since no one is going to theaters. Invisible Man, and the Hunt are both up now. $19.95

    Another favorite, I need to get it on DVD. Back in the '90s, I liked it even more than the Phantom. I still have all the Kenner toys, too.

    That opening scene on the bridge still thrills me.

    Just rewatched The Phantom. Forgot how good this movie actually is. Great special effects, incredible location shoots, perfect accuracy to the character. It's basically like reading some of the old strips or Gold Key comics. I can see why people thought it was hokey at the time and it's no Batman, but it's really well done. Could have used a few more dark jungle scenes I suppose, but Phantom of old is mostly a bright colorful jungle world, so this fit.
    I just rewatched this again too! It was definitely more enjoyable than I remembered liking it the first time... maybe my standards have dropped

    So this is a quasi-remake of Atragon, aka 20,000 Leagues Under The Toho Seas. It was rushed into production because kaiju movies were at death's door and Star Wars was such a mega hit. That's how fast War was rushed through production, which is why Jun "Megalon" Fukuda was the director. Where Honda could be meticulous to the point of trudging, Fukuda was more akin to being a Roger Corman guy.

    I could not agree more, I love this film. Treat Williams falters a bit, but the thing as a whole is great.
