Fuck that conspiracy theory shit.

With as fucked as this world is on the political and economic spectrum I can’t imagine a better conspiracy theory to end. Do you think human trafficking of children is made up?

Finished re-watching the Mission Impossible franchise. MI6 is definitely up there as greatest action movies ever IMO. My ranking from best to worst:
MI6, MI5, MI4, MI, MI3, and MI2.

…

The “Napoleon” trailer makes it look promising. Every now and then, Ridley Scott provides an incredible movie. Rooting for this to be the case here.

[jaadam4]

Mission Impossible Fallout was awesome. I went into it thinking I’d hate and I loved it. They’ve done well with that series besides MI2 was shit

[mason reese]

Wasn’t MI2 the one directed by John Woo? I remember hearing a rumor that on set Woo would pretend to not understand English so he wouldn’t have to talk to the actors

[Cody_Russell]

Yes indeed. It’s the worst because the 1st half of MI2 is surprisingly boring for a John Woo film. No suspense, all Bad Boys or Face/Off-like meme action in the 2nd half. Lacking most of the spy thriller fun.

…

Another thought I had about “Napoleon.” It’s strange that either Bill & Ted or the Count of Monte Crisco might be the best movie with Napoleon. Such a significant historical figure… you would think the movie industry would have done better. I hope Ridley Scott can pull off some “Kingdom of Heaven” director’s cut quality here. I’m down for a 4 hour epic with this specific subject.

Knocking off some watchlist movies…

“The Mitchells vs. the Machines” is a highly entertaining animated movie. Almost gets to a level of peak Pixar, but not quite there. Likable character development. Awesome animation as it’s from the same studio as the animated Spider-verse movies. You can sense Phil Lord and Christopher Miller writing all over this. I recommend for an entertaining/ fun watch. Netflix movie.

Next up: “Incendies”
Heard amazing things about this one.

I’m upset that “Oldboy” (2003) is unavailable to watch right now. Really want to watch this old movie and it won’t be available for a while due to a re-release. Ugh.

Man, I watched "Air" the other night.

Holy shit, was it bad.

Terrible writing, terrible acting, just fucking bad all the way around

[wcfwtf]

I have to go change my litter box.
living in the basement without plumbing can be taxing.

Watched The World’s Greatest Beer Run last weekend…

Not academy award material, but entertaining and based on a true story

I thought you moved out of the unabomber shack?

I still can’t believe that was a true story. I thought it was a good watch as well.

Mitchell’s vs the Machines was fantastic. It’s very underrated in my opinion

[jaadam4]

I watched The Gambler last week with Mark Wahlberg and it was fairly good. It had intrigue, good writing and John Goodman stole every scene that he was in.

It got terrible ratings but I liked it
