BlackkKlansman (Netflix)
This is one of the best Iāve seen in a while. Awesome actors, ingenious plot, and Daniel Craigās āKentucky Fried Foghorn Leghorn accentā is a hoot!
āI thought I found the hole for this particular doughnut, but it was just a smaller doughnut with a hole of itās ownā¦ā
I feel you, Benoit. Feel ya.
That was a great one!! Saw that at the movie theater back when you could go to one
Separate note. Have you ever seen The World According To Garp? There was an article I read about it yesterday. The story was written by John Irving. It kind of shows how we havenāt really made much progress on those things in the last 40 years. Great movie. Iām going to watch it again after I knock out my Oscar best picture list.
9/10
I fell asleep the other night during Mank. I liked it so far, just shouldnāt have started a movie I was beat.
Loved the look and feel of it.
I havenāt! Thank you for the reminder, Iām gonna go put it on right meow!
I really liked this movie. Intense and interesting. I will say though, Iām not sold on John David Washington yet. Heās got potential but I just donāt feel like weāve seen him find his mold yet, if that makes sense? idk, Iām probably being too critical of him but on the other hand, I think Adam Driver is overrated
Yes, I watched it but like 15-20 years ago. I will definitely re-watch it, thanks for the idea!
Yeah, I agree about Driver, he seems to be overrated, yet he chooses the movies to play in with good taste.
I also really enjoyed this one.
Although Sacha Baron Cohenās Boston accent as Abbie Hoffman was a bit cringe at times.
One of my favorite books. Irving is one of my favorite fiction authors if you like to read. Prayer for Owen Meany is also fantastic.
Oh I loved that book. Also because it takes place right where I grew up as a child. I read it so long ago. I bet I could read it again and itād all be new to me. Iām having a hard time getting into reading books again for some reason. Iām doing a reread of Lamb. By Christopher Moore. I loved it first time I read it so long ago. And Iām liking it again. Nothing wrong with rereading books youāve read 20 plus years ago right? I always thought why would you reread a book you already read? I guess we listen to the same song over and over again.
Iāve reread certain books too. Kinda like watching your favorite movie over and over again.
I just re-watched it tonight, I remembered it a bit differently, but was great.
John Lithgow is absolutely one of my favorite actors. I mean they were all good in that movie. Be heās phenomenal. I got 3 more Oscar Nominated movies to plough through. Then I plan on watching Garp again. I think weāll probably do Sound of Metal Saturday night.
I just checked out the trailer of Sound of metal, it seems tough and deep.
Preview looks good. I never heard of this one. For some reason I donāt watch many Robert Downy Jr movies. No reason. Iāll add this to my list. It doesnāt look too violent or anything. My wife doesnāt like the graphic violence movies. I donāt care for them either. She cannot watch any Tarantino movies with me. But I did get her to watch Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. She loved it. My daughter cleared it for her.
If you want to watch an absolute non-violent Downey-movie, you can try āChaplinā (if you havenāt). Really well-written, well-played, well-shot.
Oh. That looks great!! I never heard of that one either. Thank you very much. And we both love Dan Ackroyd. We try and have a movie night at least once a week. Ever since this pandemic shit we havenāt gone to a movie theatre.
Cool.
