It's an interesting world going from a monster attack to an alien invasion, I'm intrigued!!


    It’s called 10 Cloverfield Lane.

          But everyone else that understood what he meant didn't find it necessary to correct him.

            Hard to take your list of DiCaprio films seriously when you space out even while writing his name!

            Okay, what?? Do you think "Ragnarok" is Thor's last name or something? What if I said Thor The Dark World? That sounds like "Thor" is a verb that is being done on The Dark World. We need the colon, guy. Thor: Ragnarok It's called a subtitle!. I almost thought you were talking about a different movie there for a second.

            By the way, I'm just ****ing with you.

            To contribute to the thread at hand, I was watching Atomic Blonde late Thursday night and had to turn it off to go to sleep, but I'm about an hour in and so far it is pretty disappointing. I certainly will finish it though.

                Decent popcorn summer flick, but do see why it's underperforming at the box office.

                  Killed in China in its opening weekend (7-19) already surpassing the two-week-old domestic box office ($48 million-$46 million).

                    Saw that and hey, I'm happy the film is doing well in other parts of the world.

                      Mission: Impossible - Fallout

                      My full, spoiler-free review is in its own thread:

                      https://forums.operationsports.com/f...post2049437727

                      The tl;dr version is below:

                      Fallout is a direct sequel to Rogue Nation that pulls the reins on the usage of future technology in favor of kick-*** stunt work by the ageless wonder himself: Tom Cruise. The story and characters build up to any action points that sacrifice sleek and stylish blockbuster entertainment for raw and gritty impact moments with a score that punches and lets off in a timely manner.

                      It settles on more dark and serious tones but is not without throwing in light one-liners and breaking the action for some comedic relief. It is not the most impossible mission of them all, but much like the third film there is enough emotional weight in there to make it mean just as much should the crew fail. Besides, there was really only one places that this film needed to succeed, and it was with Henry Cavill's mustache, which tickled the audience to applause by the time the credits rolled.

                      Overall, it was a great job by writer/director Christopher McQuarrie, who has rightly earned to steer the ship of this franchise wherever he wants to take it. Just please first try and see Rogue Nation if you get the chance, if not III and Ghost Protocol before that.

                          Once Upon a Time in the West. Solid Sergio Leone movie, one of the best opening scenes in a western.

                            The Last Movie Star. Burt Reynolds in a quasi-retrospective of himself and his acting career, so it would seem. Lots of touching moments. Unsure if this is his actual depiction of his own insights about the above, but it certainly seems that way. I didn't realize until after I watched this and looked at some of the related sections on Amazon Prime, but he turned town the roles for both Die Hard and as Hans Solo. And, of course, we all knew that he regarded Sally Field as his one, true love. This movie had some sad and heart-warming scenes. Definitely worth a look.

                              Slightly off topic but.....MoviePass is dead. Ran out of money. Only eticket theaters still working. I had a eticket for Mission Impossible but wasn't willing to pay $10 for parking. (downtown Charlotte, NC)

                              Barring a miracle, Eigth Grade was my last flick. ..

                                I never understood as a business model how it was going to work....but that's for another thread.
