Looks like Cronenberg is finally back to another body horror movie.

One of the very few movies beside MARVEL, that I will watch in a local Theater. Looks absolutely stunning!

What the hell did Cronenberg's childhood look like?

What about the new top gun movie?

[Captain Blood]

Ahhhh, The memories. Remembering my favorite comedy of all time, airplane.

I Know Where I’m Going!

It got a nice write-up in AP https://apnews.com/article/entertain...94679b8a7bd3b6 . And I like Red Shoes. Just could not get into this one though.

I went and saw The Northman last night. As I was walking out, a pack of 5 guys that saw it together were walking in front of me and one them said "That was one of the biggest displays of toxic masculinity I have seen in a long time..........................and I loved it."

LOL Summed it up about right. Not a date movie for sure. Kind of reminded me of a more modern Conan movie? Or the feel of it. Lots of gore - thumbs up.

Kinda like 300, but probably not as good?

No - I'd say more like Conan - along those lines. Lots of blood and gore.

My first time inside of a local movie theater in over 2 years, to watch Doctor Strange 2.

It's a MARVEL film. So I was very entertained.

However... I was reminded as to why it's simply NOT worth my time and effort to even go to a Theater.
Overpriced concessions and annoying ass people are a huge turn off.

That movie has literally over 100 different quotes that are funny you can make on here.

No love for the classic "Big Trouble in Little China"

That's one of my all-time favorites. I know it's cheesy and campy as hell, but I just love it. I'd also throw in the The Thing. Maybe I'm just a big Kurt Russell fan.

EDIT: I see now you have The Thing in there.

See to me - the theatre is the experience - must be a childhood thing. I love the huge dark room and immersive experience. I have a great system at home, but nothing like that.

I DO agree on the annoying people. I have been known to say something. If you come to the movie to be on your phone the entire time? Fuck off. If you come to the movies to talk the entire time? Fuck off. These are the people that need to stay at home - not us. There is a theatre an hour or so from me that I have never been too - but I'd love to support it. When you get there, you are told - no talking and no phones - period. They have a text line so people in the movie can text them (I get the irony) when someone is on their phone or talking and they will come and escort them out. You get TOSSED! I love it. It's terrible you have to even ask people not to be assholes, but here we are.

That is why I wait till movies are out for a month or so before I go and go in the middle of the week. My local one started a Tuesday deal where members can come for $5 and get a free small popcorn. I went this week, got my ticket, popcorn, milkdudes, and a large drink for $15. There were 6 other people in their with me and 5 were together, but several times I have went and been the only one in the entire theatre. It is great when that happens. LOL #peoplesuck

I think if more places cracked down on the cell phones, talking, and being babysitters - people would come tot he movies more.

LOL - it IS good, just not one of my favs.

I think was I was too young to appreciate it when it was new, and it never caught on with me.

I should re-watch.
