Rewatched Glory. I remember watching this as a kid and it filling me with so much emotion. A deep desire to be a good person, to do the right thing, and made me really hate racists.

Speaking of Kubrick, The Killing is an amazing unerappreciated movie if you love heist movies or noir.

Cosign. The Killing is fantastic.
Paths of Glory also a great early B&W Kubrick film that more people should see.

Wow. I saw the poster earlier today, it looked like a 90s direct to video effort. I figured it was some nonsense released just so they had something to show. Seems like I wasnāt that far wrong

My hope is that itās like Interstellar where a bunch of newbians shit on it while I bask in the glory of Nolanās visuals mixed with Hans Zimmerās score.

Iāve only made it halfway through the first paragraph and I want to murder the author. Does Collider not have editors? Are its contributors incapable of even basic proofreading?
Somehow I never saw Adventures in Babysitting, so I watched it tonight on HBOMax. Pretty racist movie. The premise is that a babysitter in the suburbs has to take some kids into downtown Chicago to pick her friend up from the bus station. Hijinks ensue when they meet a bunch of black criminals.

Just saw Richard Jewell, thought it was great. Amazing cast, Rockwell, Hauser, Hamm, Wilde, and Kathy Bates were all terrific. Shame it bombed at the box office.
Rockwellās assistant/love interest stole the show, and I also really liked the actor who played Jewellās friend.
The consensus has changed pretty fast as more reviews come in:

I love going to the movies, and this is just the type of thing that I would try to see on a really big screen on opening weekend. But this is just going to have to wait.

Sweet!!!
Iām prepared to love it even if it had settled on 20%. Iāve loved everything heās made, with the exception of Dunkirk. But thatās more because Iām exhausted with war movies. And I probably would like it if I ever watched it.
Same. Maybe a drive thru?
I donāt remember drive-ins a being very good place to see a movie.
Whenās the last time you went to one?
The last one I remember going to was a double feature - The Car and Jaws 3-D. So uh, probably 1983, and those memories might be a bit fuzzy.
I remember enjoying the whole adventure of a drive-in. It was like gearing up for an expedition with food and beverages, sleeping bags for the kids, etc. There was a playground to use before the movies, territory to claim around the car. All good fun. But strictly as a venue for enjoying a film, it seemed to be pretty crappy.
I have never been. Iām curious whether the technology has improved since 1983. This might be the closest we get to a theater-ish experience for a while. Iād consider going for something like Tenet. What Iām really looking for is a unique experience to enhance and distinguish the movie. Watching it surrounded by a bunch of cars of people focused on the movie at the same time would do it, I think.
I went to a drive in a couple years ago for a quadruple showing and we fell asleep during like the 3rd one.
