Timecop is an amazing movie. Like legit good, but also just fun. Obv must mention Tubi once again saves the day by streaming this one for free.
Also have a lot of love for Hard Target and The Quest.

I think we mention it a lot but Hard Target is a banger. The diabetes man shooting a bow while riding a horse as buidlings explode behind him is an all time movie scene. Like that is peak cinema

As a hockey fan, I really enjoyed Sudden Death.

Re: ads, I mostly watch Tubi for shows like Van Damme movies where itās not a huge deal if ads interrupt the experience. Itās annoying, but w/e. If Iām watching serious auteur cinema like Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker, I canāt hang with ads at all.
Also letās not forget JvcDās epic Shakespearean monologue in Street Fighter.

Saw AMC screen unseen tonight and it was the ministry of ungentlemanly warfare and it was meh
Itās a pretty generic action movie, not any memorable scenes or characters or anything really
When you said you were seeing Civil War in IMAX, I thought you might come in with thoughts from tonightās IMAX advance screening of it.
Iām seeing that in Dolby on Thursday.
No sadly I looked and didnāt see any screenings for it here, def woulda if I could, look forward to your take on it
On one hand, based on this one quote alone, Alex Garland does not have useful political thoughts to offer.

On the other hand, when he got hit up for his four favorite movies by Letterboxd, he name-checked Come and See and said it was one of the rare true anti-war movies, and noted that he asked his cast to watch that before filming this. Which is a pretty strong tell that this movie isnāt going to be some sort of pornographic wishcasting of a modern American civil war. I found Come and See to be a tremendously difficult sit, but no question that it is indeed aggressively anti-war.

Yeah, I mean Iād really have to shift gears significantly if that sort of thing was going to be disqualifying. I watch directorial works of noted scumbags like Roman Polanski, Woody Allen, and Mel Gibson, which is a much more direct support of garbage people than this. If I start having to go as far as auditing credits for brief appearances of names of people who are likely being acknowledged in order to fulfill legal obligations for use of certain footage or material that they have some sort of ownership or interest in, hoo boy.
Others can make whatever decisions they want in terms of what they want to consume, but this - while unfortunate - is pretty far down the list of things Iād consider refusing to watch a movie over.

No way Iām not checking out Civil War. Looks to be too affecting for me to pass up the experience.
