Yep, same. Trying to get all four of us in the room at the same time to watch that stuff is a different story

We watched Clifford the Big Red Dog for family movie night last night (meh). Most of these I watch myself. I think my wife will watch Red Notice with me, though.

Told my wife specifically not to watch Red Notice without me

Shang Chi was not at all what I was expecting. The action was awesome, story wasn't great, akwafina can go to funny to annoying pretty fast. I enjoyed this very much, but don't know how much of that was just the action. will watch again

The Harder they Fall was cool, a little schizophrenic at times, but I enjoyed it. Loved the cast. More Zazie Beats in everything.

F9 was glorious. young family had me laughing a lot. Everything with the magnets was boss. I can't believe they are keeping Brian alive, but when you look at the rest of these movies, I guess it makes sense. I only counted 4 or 5 times they mentioned family, but they certainly had it front and center visually on the screen. I'm sure John Cena is a good dude, but he doesn't even look like he's human, he's just so dumb looking and I find it very distracting no matter what he's in.

Best buy/Amazon has a ton of good 4k/blu movies on sale today

Looks like it could be a documentary of how things work nowadays. Also looks fun

Yeah, it's McKay so I'm automatically interested. Never did watch Vice though and doesn't seem like I'm missing a ton.

I'm torn because I can't stand Jennifer Lawrence and Jonah Hill.

Why don't they just get ragtag group of oil drillers to fly up to the astroid and plant a nuke in it?

Yes to all of this.

Damn. That end scene with MJ… No way they actually do that right?

Unless…

This feels as though we would all be best served by not watching the trailer.

Looks fun, it's multiverse time, of course there will be other characters. If they are showing those, I'm sure other spideys are going to be there as well. (First two new spidey 4k movies are on sale for $9.99 right now, I think I've bought 20 movies this week for stocking stuffers).

and no Spider-Men reveals in the trailer, though a quick jaunt around the internet reveals things like Lizard being punched in the face by nothing, a swinging MCU Spidey that also has Tobey’s eyes on the mask, and a bodyless arm of TASM’s Spidey just hanging out in the background of a shot. Nice editing job. This trailer also confirms nearly every leak out there.

Marvel has done a great job with trailer spoilers though. Scenes that aren’t actually in the movie, Thor’s eye, I’m sure there’s more but they’ve seemed to balance misdirection and hype.

Most of the time, I don't think these things work out, but Scorsese changes things up a bit

This is an allegory for a girl getting her first period, right?

I'll stick to the OG 'source material' if, ah, you know what I mean.

Wait that's a series? Why is that a series?

Hats Off Entertainment, a Youtube channel with a lot of #GoodContent did a really great takedown of that awful Disney Home Alone reboot:

As did Screen Rant if you wanted something shorter:

Yeah...maybe don't make the villains sympathetic and the protagonist **** awful.
