This is on the agenda for us for Friday night. I live relatively close to Lightfoot’s hometown, when he died a lot of people around here acted like a family member died. “Beloved” is overused a but when it comes to celebrities but he was a real source of pride for people here.
Oh?
That’s awesome. Hope it’s a good time remembering and enjoying the man and music.
Went on vacation and watched some movies on the way there and way back. Very quick reviews:
Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris - I wouldn’t call this bad, but it was super disposable and got too cutesy in parts.
Casablanca - Had never seen this, so figured why not? Very good movie. Probably a bit overrated in the landscape of pop culture, but that’s a pretty minor complaint.
Ford v Ferrari - I like to watch all the Best Picture nominees before Oscar night, but for some reason just never got around to seeing it. A better movie than I expected given the subject matter.
The Town - Fine, I guess. Was hoping for better for some reason. Ending was nonsense.
The Menu - Amazing. I can’t believe this got zero Oscar nominations.
I liked the menu a lot as well
Bet Kevin Smith is kicking himself now for not accepting the gig to write Beetlejuice Goes Hawaiian
Watching They Live on Tubi for family movie night. This movie goes hard with a message that’s as relevant now as ever. 5 bags
Great example of a move that was awful at release but just keeps getting better with age. So campy and fun
I was always disappointed that the fight scene wasn’t several minutes longer.
I got the 4K on sale a while back and still haven’t rewatched. Has a commentary with Carpenter and Piper which will probably be fun. The Thing commentary was good
Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is fantastic.
I had time to kill before our flight so got convinced to go watch this.
About an hour in I choose to leave and play my on phone in the lobby it was so awful.
I can’t think of a redeeming quality it had.
Different strokes.
In this case one person watched the whole movie and had a different opinion lol.
Air is on Prime now and it’s as good as they say. Like Jerry Maguire for basketball. Matty D and Batfleck deliver.
Nice. Will save for my trip (Somehow doing India/Bulgaria back to back to weeks).
I literally ended the post with an acknowledgment that people can have different opinions.
