Nice. I appreciate the heads up.

I have always liked Keaton, but he was awesome in The Founder. Every time I watch it I appreciate his energy and importance to the movie more. He deserved more accolades for that movie. He really did.

Have you seen Pacific Heights? One of my favorites.

I saw Pacific Heights many. many years ago. He was good in that one as a psychopath.

About Damn time!

I am stoked for this movie. I need my Marvel Fix. Looking forward to Shang-Chi as well.

I just finished watching a movie called Ninja Assassin from 2009. I liked the action. My kind of a movie.

Shang-Chi was a good origin story for this Marvel Character. I was thrilled that a certain "Ac-Tor" from a previous Marvel movie showed up again. The only way to see this movie properly is in the Theater. It was nice to see a movie theater packed full of people enjoying the movie.

Two thumbs up from me on this one.

I saw this one on Friday - I really enjoyed it!

I'm sorry, I didn't quite hear you. Did you say Candy-Gram?

I just watched Disney's Cruella. I was not expecting much as I am not an Emma Stone fan at all. But the movie, with a lot of creative liberty told a pretty good story. I actually found it entertaining for a movie that is over 2 hours long.

Time for a little Mel Brooks humor.

I just finished Accident Man with Scott Adkins. His movies never disappoint. He makes some of the best full on action/martial arts movies around these days. If you like martial arts/action movies you should check him out. They are B-Grade movies but those are where you find the best action movies in my opinion. This movie has Ray Park who was Darth Maul and Michael Jai White who is a multiple Black Belt himself. Then there is Amy Johnston who is a 3rd Degree Black Belt and Stunt woman. The fight scene between her and Scott Adkins is pretty darn good.

My son and I just saw Venom: Let there be Carnage! Quite good if a little short on run time. I was under the impression there was to be two post credit scenes but the Manager said there was only one. According to the web, the second trailer was supposed blow the test audiences mind. I guess they think we can handle it.

Best car chase ever in a movie.

Cool. I don't see many movies, but some action scenes and chase scenes today are so closely cropped and jumpy that I start to feel that instead of a deliberate attempt to create an effect they are just trying to conceal a lack of actual content.

Not in the same class, but I'll put this here:

Love it. Used to live in that neighborhood.
