OT: The Movie Thread

[Embiid]

Just saw Tetris. Great story about how it came to be. Movie was entertaining. Reminded me of the 80's....it was a great time to grow up in.

Definitely sense that. They even cut down the episodes to 8 in season 5. Also read Costner may not return for season 6......?.

They actually expanded to 16 I believe. What aired so far was just part 1 of season 5. Part 2 airs beginning sometime in May or June I believe. Totally agree on the sentiment that season 5 has been a mess and by far the weakest season. I'm not really even looking forward to part 2. Just feels like they've recycled a lot of plot points in season 5 with no real direction... Seasons 1-3 were great but you could sense the down trend in season 4 but at least it was still enjoyable. Season 5 has been straight crap imo.

Just started watching The Righteous Gemstones. Only a few episodes in, but I like the tone and direction so far.

Absurd dark comedy. If you like Barry or that style, you'd probably enjoy this.

Oh...did not know that. So basically they already filmed the 16 episodes. So they are going to finish it all up in Season 5 with no season 6 next year? Probably best they just get it all over with bc yeah season 5 so far has jumped the shark and agree you saw some petering out in season 4.

Never seen that show, but now I'm intrigued.

If you like Billy Bob Thornton, it's a no-brainer to watch this show!

And some of the 'goliaths' he takes on are played so well by William Hurt, Dennis Quaid, JK Simmons, a few others I'm forgetting.

Did Jack BLACK join the dark side?

Took the kids to see the D&D movie. I had some notion that it was actually decent, but I was still surprised by how good it was. It's not Shakespeare or anything but it's well-written, well-acted, very funny, and highly entertaining.

need to see this

Everything about this but the wire flying seems cool. I just don’t think it’s ever been done well, including crouching tiger hidden dragon.
Wire flying looks off, very off, and probably could be done much better via cgi. That’s coming from someone that believes good practical effects are better than cgi.

The best cheesesteak in the city currently is a cheesesteak with cooper sharp, fried onions, and Longhots, from Kaileys Kitchen.
There’s no discussion to be had here. Just go get one.
This is the movie thread isn’t it!

That's exactly what i like on my cheestesteaks too, but not many places offer longhots.

Not sure about this....

‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’ Trailer Puts Harrison Ford Back in Action

Six minutes of classic Indy footage showing tuk-tuk races, rolling boulders, Nazi references and Phoebe Waller-Bridge jumping out of a burning plane were also also shown at the Star Wars Celebration in London.

Those places should feel shame. Longhots are fantastic.

I sadly cannot get a good cheesesteak up here. I hate you guys for taking about it lol

Took the kid to see the Mario movie. Her second theatre experience.

I caught a bunch of Easter eggs for those that have been playing Mario games for decades, but I'm sure I missed more than I saw.

Fun movie and certainly set up for sequels. Kids will love it. Cynical movie critics will hate it.

Not that I necessarily agree it should be but I do think this will set forth a trend in Hollywood.

The mashup of them is better than either tho

My friend wanted to see Dungeons and Dragons so I went with him. never played the game but it was great. Hilarious, my type of humor. i suspect they will be making more of these.

It's not going to even break even, so i wouldn't expect it.
