No kidding. Thank God for things like the theatrical Miyazaki and Indy marathons because new releases this year have been absolutely abysmal for the most part.

Other than A Ghost Story the best movies to see on the big screen have been re-releases. Checking showtimes for IT I'm now seeing that the animated Beauty and the Beast is back in theaters at my local AMC. Plus we just had T2 and Close Encounters and I see that E.T. is coming up again. Forget the current crap and just go for the classics, lol.

I wish I hadn't missed out on those Indy rereleases, would have loved to at least see Raiders in the theater again. Tried to get my Daughter interested in the Miyazaki rereleases, but she's at an awkward stage, the doesn't care about Miyazaki stage. She used to love Totoro and Kiki, but I think Spirited Away has always seemed a little creepy to her.

How old is your daughter? When mine first saw Spirited Away a number of years ago the parents turning into pigs aspect definitely did not sit well with her, lol. At least we've got Rey and the Porgs coming up. :D
 
She's about to turn 9, we'll be spending her bday in DisneyWorld, funny, since she just tore down all her Princess posters a few days ago.

Sadly, her interest in Star Wars seems to be waning. Disney marketing, work your magic! ;)

She'd rekindle that interest if they de-aged Luke. She said she doesn't like him when he's old.

I hope you get a good Star Tours. :duff
 

Mother! - 8.5/10 - Pretty good movie. Was expecting some type of horror, but it was anything but. Bardem was good but Lawrence carried it. First flick in a while where I was actually getting pissed off with the main character. GTFO of my house!


Kudos for being brave enough to actually admit you like this movie versus the lemmings who enjoy bashing this movie. I too thought it was great. You can either agree or disagree with the underlying message but there's no denying it really was a good (and brave) movie. It was nice to see something original than the usual sequels, remakes and superhero movies.
 
Can't that be said about every TC movie in th last 15 years... I stay away from his movies like the plague

Re TC's Mummy - I thought "How bad could it be? Maybe it'll be a guilty pleasure.....":pow:(

Shame of it is I think TC is talented but why does he always need to be front and center (Yeah, sure, really works for you playing 6'4" Jack Reacher and BTW thanks for ******* the books, Tom....)

Agree with:

Tom Cruise could still be a powerful actor, but the irony of his career, at least for now, is that at the very moment when he should be taking on more character roles, easing into a post-superstar creative freedom zone (as actors from Julia Roberts to Kevin Costner to Meryl Streep to Leonardo DiCaprio have done), he’s doubled down on one thing and one thing only: the awesome global transcendence of his image. He’s still choosing movies like he’s king of the world.

I don't think enough people have even seen this movie, for you to consider either group "lemmings".

It's so conceited to simply dismiss other peoples opinion as either being part of a herd mentality, or not possesing the intellectual capacity to understand the film. Maybe you just liked a bad film?

I don't know enough about it to summon an interest in going to the theater to see it, I'll probably catch it on video though. I know the trailer really turned me off of it, as it unrelentingly touted itself as the second coming. In my experience, a movie that constantly tries to hit you over the head with how amazing it is, usually is'nt.
 
It (2017) - 5/10. The characters were okay. But there were way. Too. Many. Jumpscares. They got tiring, annoying, cheap, and predictable after the first couple times they happened, and I was more focused on guessing when one would happen next than the plot of the film. They were less scary than surprising, too. The only genuinely creepy part, for me, was the location change at the end.

Jye and crows said that the movie was much more than that. Are you guys trying to trick me into seeing a crappy flick? :tap

The It remake is pretty much what you make of it. I agree that it's full of clichéd and predictable jump scares as I wasn't wild over the film myself, but I think it's better than most of what we've gotten for horror the past ten years... at least in terms of character development. I'd say it's still worth a look.
 
at almost 400 million WB is prolly lining up IT 3 and IT 4. No doubt with it be with a Female Asian Alien Clown this time around to compete with The Last Jedi.
 
Alien Covenant: 6.5 or 7/10

Definitely better than Prometheus. But still very familiar territory, almost like a retread of Prometheus. There were some truly gnarly "births", especially the first one. And I like how they moved, like real wild unpredictable all over the place almost clumsy feral animals.
