    Re: What movies have you seen recently?

    The three film run of Dr No, From Russia With Love and Goldfinger is my favorite run in the entire Bond Series.

    Dr No is the weakest of that 3 film run but still like you said….it has all the elements of a great Bond Film.

    I also really like Thunderball. A classic.

      It’s been a while since I’ve seen Thunderball. Looking at the release list, there are a lot of great pairs ruined by the third, like I loved You Only Live Twice and On Her Majesty, but then you have Live and Let Die. Really speaks to the power of the brand that they’ve survived all these years despite the movies being so uneven.

        Oh yeah…..Live and Let Die is a freaking disaster. Unbearable to watch that movie today. I would say the worst one between Connery and Moore.

        The Man With The Golden Gun was a great return to form, then you got The Spy Who Loved Me and my biggest guilty pleasure Bond film in Moonraker.

          I saw Black Widow.

          I can understand some of the hate because people probably watch it expecting it to be Avengers level, but obviously it's not.

          I wouldn't say it's one of the best MCU films/series out there, probably lower on that list, but to be fair, it is a very high bar all the others have set.

          It was still a good movie regardless. Probably could've been a series instead like Falcon & Winter Solider was.

          Obviously the movie was simply about Romanoff, and it did provide a good amount of backstory on her, and summed up everything that happened between post Civil War and the moment we saw at the end of the movie.

          And the post credit scene was real unexpected.

          I do like how a full rewatch of the marvel series gets impacted by these other releases. It'll be like Star Wars. You can debate which one is the best order to watch them all in. Maybe based on release date, or maybe even just based on when each film happened in the timeline.

          Although this movie, it does "spoil" what happens with Romanoff in Endgame, but if it's a full on rewatch of the series, you already know what happens anyways.

            I loved all of the movies on Disney but I thought Black Widow was close to awful.

              Miami Connection (1987)

              Just an insanely stupidly amazingly hilariously ridiculously awesome movie. The worst thing a movie can be is predictable and boring, and this ain't that. Just hilarious. Put it on a double feature with Samurai Cop and you are set.

                Well.........I always had this curiosity about really bad 1980’s Italian dystopian type flicks.

                So I watched Escape the Bronx.....the sequel (you don’t need to see the first one) to 1990 The Bronx Warriors and the escapades of one lone wolf named Trash.

                When I tell you this is true 80’s schlock.....it has to be seen to be believed.

                I was laughing most of the way through. Watched it at 1AM this past weekend....I tend to watch old cult type movies on late nights after gaming.

                This one was a 10/10 on the cheese scale. Just hilarious.

                    Micheal Keaton was on Conan's podcast this week and I highly recommend listening. I'm itching to go through a bunch of his movies again, but the range of his career is absolutely crazy to me.

                    Outside of Batman, Beetlejuice, and Birdman what is required viewing for Keaton?

                      I don't know if they're "required viewing". but some movies with Keaton I liked:


                      "The Dream Team" where he stars opposite Flounder, Christopher Loyd, Patrick Boyle.


                      "Live from Baghdad" was an HBO movie about a CNN crew during the Gulf War. Really enjoyed it.

                            I’ve always enjoyed The Paper. Great cast with Keaton.

                              He was hilarious in The Other Guys, but his role is very minimalized.

                              He also does some good voice acting, in that you'd only know it was him if somebody told you. He hides behind his characters well there.
