Movies (and occasionally face slaps) (Part 1)

We don’t want to be snobs, and yet here we are

yeah, you REALLY need to watch season 2. Margo Martindale as Mags Bennett chews through every scene she’s in (one of the best TV villains ever, IMHO), and the regular characters really come into their own.

ETA: Apparently Martindale won the Best supporting actress Emmy for her work here…I forgot about that

Guilty of only watching pilot of Justified and not continuing…

That being said Tates Creek Road is a normal high traffic road in Lexington, and not even close to Harlan. That small detail always amused me though.

Walton Goggins so good though. Even Good Place gave credit to Timothy Olyphant

ok, this is true. It’s close, though.

I’ve got Justified > Deadwood but I also liked season 1 of Justified and everyone on the internet likes to claim it’s the worst season of TV ever created so my tastes differ a bit from most of you

Man hbomax has so much stuff and just added lots of goodies, watched chronicles of riddick again, watched Friday, they also have next Friday, watched eraser, starting city slickers 2 too, and yes I know none of these are actually good but a lot of nostalgic for me

Also, seven, blow, training day

Oh and the butterfly effect kekw

Eraser is so good. My favorite scene. Mission Impossible hasn’t got anything on this movie.

Those kids at the end lol lol lol.

Did that hurt? That had to hurt. I saw it.

Rewatched True Lies last night. Bill Paxton, Jaime Lee Curtis, Tom Arnold, and a young Eliza Dushku. The action scenes hold up.

“Helen…”

“Yeah?”

“Is having…”

“Spit it out man!”

“…an affair.”

Laughs uncontrollably “Shit man, welcome to the club! You had me worried something was really wrong.”

Some how I don’t think I’ve ever seen Eraser. Will need to watch it soon.

I absolutely loved this. So good.

Amazing to see us on this forum having the exact same arguments some 50 years later.

It’s basically UP: The Film. :grin:

Bombshell

7/10

The prosthetics get a lot of credit, Charlize Theron looks identical to Megan Kelly, but more so Theron nails Kelly’s cadence to where, if you told me Megan Kelly did voiceover work on the movie, I’d believe you. John Lithgow does great as Rodger Ailes.

There’s a contingent in the forum who claim Lynch is not talented. Strangest take I’ve seen on UP.
