Movie Thread

Was that the one with the ugly chick from that doctor show?

The movie and the show tell us she's hot tho.

Sideways is a good watch, but I like wine less and less as I get older, and my enjoyment of the movie follows suit.

Thank you! She is not attractive yet people like to say she is. Not my deal.

She was the princess in “Dune.”

I remember that the filming rights were sold before the book it was based on was even published.

That's really not uncommon in Hollywood. In fact, with highly-anticipated works, it's probably more common than not. Both Jaws and Jurassic Park were acquired pre-publication. I think World War Z was, too.

Watched the second Kingsman movie. It was enjoyable, exactly what I expected really. Not sure why they brought in Tatum to come in, mumble a few lines, disappear for the middle 3/4 of the movie, and then show up at the end to mumble a bit more before the credits. Was he shooting another movie at the same time? Did it as a contractual obligation?

Anyone know if the original and remake of Orient Express are differnent enough in the killer/twist/mystery that you can watch them back to back without spoiling each other?

[eddy]

Vitor Drago. Creed 2.

My vague understanding is that they changed the final details of the plot; avoided other info, as I want to see it.

[dodint]

Hmmm.

Well, you have planted enough doubt that I can proceed.

Vitor Drago. Creed 2.

I love Creed, but apparently repeating Rocky IV seems like an odd choice.

[tifosi77]

So Creed III will be Clubber Lang Jr?

Not really with everything going on with Russia right now. Seems pretty smart to me.

I’m hoping that it has a shout-out to the glorious fighters of the Taliban.

Did they cast Tim Roth for The H8ful Eight because Christoph Waltz was unavailable?

Doubt it. Tim Roth is a Tarantino guy.

True, although this was Roths first Tarantino film since 95. But he seems to be trying hard to be (as annoying as) Waltz in Hateful Eight, which is quite boring, btw.

[blackjack68]

Any thoughts on Brawl in Cellblock 99?

[nocera]

Man I love Hateful Eight.

[Gaucho]

Man I love Hateful Eight.

I want to like it and may give it another try.

[blackjack68]

Hateful Eight was two movies. One of them very good and one them not.

[Gaucho]

I've only seen the first half. Is the other half the good half?

[blackjack68]

No, the first half was the good half.

That and knowing a priceless guitar was destroyed (possibly on purpose) annoys the hell out of me.

[dodint]

Get Out was one of the best movie experiences I have had in years. I dislike Jordan Peele but he is owed his due here.

The act waa certainly deliberate. But do you mean it may have been malicious?
