Question: Isn't this the story of Boba Fett, a "bad guy"?

No. It’s set something like 4 or 5 years after Return of the Jedi. Simply about a Mandalorian bounty hunter chasing down his next paycheck.

If a droid doesn't call someone a "Meat bag" I'm rioting.

Really enjoyed the Netflix movies, "The King" and "The Highwaymen" was surprised how good they were for not having been to the movie theaters. 

Just got back from watching Dark Waters for work. Not a bad movie if you like the lawyer drama type movies. It's a little less dramatic than the trailer portrays it. DuPont is so worried about the movie they released a 2 page rebuttal press release to their depiction in the film. That's a good endorsement in my book.

 

 

  • 3 weeks later...

I'd heard all the buzz around The Irishman, so watched it a couple weeks ago.

In all the buzz, I hadn't realized that the movie is three and a half hours long.  Damn.

And not "Wow, that three and a half hours just flew by."  More like, "Damn, Scorsese really likes doing those long shots of people simply walking....for like five minutes straight."

It was entertaining, but be prepared for the long haul.  Not Goodfellas good, or Casio good, but still entertaining.  Felt like it could have been edited down to 2.5 hours or so, and still not lost anything.



Wait so, a Pearl Harbor redux?

Not even close. There is almost nothing about love or families in this movie. IMO it blows Pearl Harbor out of the water and has the added benefit of not having Ben Affleck (sp) in it.

Probably their take on Aurora/SR-72.

I watched them film that scene while I was leaving work. They did a few passes with Blue Angel #2 and of course nobody was actually standing there. They had a full-size mock-up of the bird pictured in my hangar. China Lake definitely does not have a guard shack right at the departure end of 14.

Wait...you're telling me that's not real?

 

Prime comment from video - " That's the realest military mustache I've ever seen on film. "

They did have it parked on the ramp outside the weapons lab which would have been entertaining had Russia chosen to do an Open Skies flight that particular day.

I just watched 6 Underground starring Ryan Reynolds on Netflix. It's not that bad, but not good either.

Knives Out was pretty good. Chris Evans makes are really good asshole and Daniel Craig half pulled off a southern twang.

I want to know who will replace the Great Kenny Loggins on the soundtrack. I need a catchy song to hum along to for the next 30 years.

Apparently they're going to do a remake with some "up and coming" rock band with KL doing some vocals on it.

It was on the reddit thread w/ this preview.  The movies board on there isn't too bad.

Star Wars was meh. It wasn't bad...but I went in with high hopes and it didn't really deliver.

Just manage your expectations and don't expect an Avengers End Game level of conclusion to the saga.

If it's better than The Last Jedi, I'll be satisfied.

It is.  The prequels were better than TLJ.

It was good, but something about it was just not there. It felt disjointed in the storytelling.
