    Not a new release, but I just watched Free Solo, a pretty amazing documentary about extreme rock climbing. Highly recommended, but if you don’t like heights it may be unwatchable. I had to stop and...

    I rewatched Dune 2021. It holds up.

    I’m approaching the movie as an avid fan of the original 6 books written by Frank Herbert - I love all of them, for different reasons - and as a “hater” of the...

    It looks a bit like this:

    It’s as if there were film grain, but instead of being random, individual pixels of the same color were arranged in...

    General movie question about IMAX screens snd projectors:

    A new AMC opened near us and we have seen two movies there - one IMAX and one not. During the IMAX movie - Dune - I noticed a strange...

    I just watched “Dolemite is my name”. Outstanding.

    It dragged a bit in places, but otherwise it was a funny, feel good movie. And Eddie Murphy was perfect as Rudy Ray Moore.

    I had previously...
  6. Sticky: Yeah, this is my concern exactly. Recirculating...

    Hazmat suit. Haha. And then burn it. :lol:

    Honestly, I'm more wary of being in close contact with other people more than I am of picking up the virus from touching surfaces. I'm pretty good about...

    I'm two episodes in and I'm already really liking it. It is different, and I have no idea where it's going yet, but I'm completely hooked. And Kyle Maclaughlan is fantastic.

    Meanwhile, in my home "theater" ...

    I've been working my way through Twin Peaks (for the first time), and watched Fire Walk with Me in preparation for Season 3. While I can totally understand why...
  9. Sticky: Great list, Mae. I need to familiarize myself...

    Great list, Mae. I need to familiarize myself with most of those movies, though.
  10. Sticky: :) I know, right? I actually do watch and...

    :) I know, right?

    I actually do watch and enjoy original movies, but I usually watch them after I hear a bit more about them, or on home media, unless I know the director. I anticipate the...
  11. Sticky: I'm less excited by the movies on this list, but...

    I'm less excited by the movies on this list, but there are a few I'm looking forward to.
    - Dune, which will probably be something special even if it doesn't (can't?) adhere closely to the source...

    I managed to see it spoiler-free, and yes, the ending was great. The thing is, it's still a fine movie without that ending, but the ending recast the whole movie in a different light.

    Split is one...

    I can't say I disagree with you. :)

    Well, we can never have Ghostbusters 3. That time is past. So the way I figure it, we can either have nothing, a remake, or a continuation that takes the basic premise and tries to do something new...
  15. Sticky: Yeah, I like it. And yes, the Stranger Things...

    Yeah, I like it. And yes, the Stranger Things influence is obvious. :)

    I will say, The Ghostbusters: Afterlife trailer would probably work a whole lot better if you saw it in the theater, without...

    I haven’t seen most of M. night’s recent work. I saw some of his early stuff but then nothing until Split two years ago - and I went into that spoiler free, although I’d heard vague positive things....

    I saw Glass last night. I liked it. The end was a bit messy but the rest of it was really solid. Great performances and I liked the premise.
