Saving Private Ryan is one of the all time greats. But not a Cohen bros. fan here, though I thought Fargo was OK. "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs" sucked big time.....

To clarify, the latter of the examples given - If at any point on a Wednesday you have quoted the "Hump Day Camel" from Geico commercials in an attempt to be humorous you are definitely defined as the latter. |

You are correct. I feel like I should clarify. The "New" or "Bro Country" music is what I'm referring to. My apologies. Classic country I have no problems with.

I don't mean to be disrespectful to Nolan or his fans but I would categorize all his movies (especially those of late) as Big, Bigger and Biggest. His next movie should be titled "Less is More". His movies are just crying out for some much needed subtleties. I mean to pay to see a movie for purely entertainment - no more no less. If I need a lesson in philosophy, I read a book at least it's free.

I went by myself to see They Shall Not Grow Old last night. I'm moved by the sheer potential of the human race. I'm equally worried for the US, fearful that a Civil War is just around the corner, waiting to ignite.
When prisoners were taken, while there was still some visible animosity among combatants, there was also a huge realization that "Gerry" wasn't really all that different than your or I. Just doing what he was told, by his politicians. I imagine many of you distinguished veterans discovered that among all but the most heinous of your adversaries? WTF is wrong with British oral health, though? These were 16-25 yo men who had no freaking teeth. The spoke about their kit including a toothbrush, but then said that was used almost exclusively to polish their buttons . . . The final scene of the bandoliers, whom many we had seen before. The one poor kid was so shell-shocked it was hard to watch. |

As for as teeth go, we are only seeing English kids. Other nations probably had equally bad, if not worse, oral health back then.

If you watched the after-event where the director actually went to the place to get a good idea of the color for the ground/grass. He was in the exact same location. In that follow-up, they were able to show some of the same guys from multiple scenes that you might not have caught watching the whole movie. The kid with that shaking hand, I just couldn't decide if that was psychosomatic or maybe he got gassed. Seeing that gas creeping across the field towards the camera, I get a shiver even now. |

Happy Death Day
Finally got to watching it and actually thought it was pretty good. Love time loop types stories. Does it pretty well and some good humour. didn't know there was a sequel out this week. |

No kidding. Overall... As a franchise (all 3 films) my absolute favorite movies!
It hits on everything I enjoy in a film except for SciFi: Action Special Effects Humor Solid acting Excellent story Fantasy Life is full of Drama. I tend not to go out of my way to watch them. I do understand and appreciate the great acting associated with Drama. But give me: Fantasy, Action, Sci-Fi for my $$$.
