Grown Ups -- they keep replaying it on cable so I finally watched it. It wasnt bad, good light cheesy daytime comedy.

Redskins247 · 03-30-2020, 06:45 PM

I too really liked 1917, really liked the way it was filmed and the look it had to it.

Also watched Doctor Sleep...I liked it. Very different from The Shining, so don't go into it thinking it will match that, because it can't...and doesn't even really try. Barely "horror" in my opinion as well, but well done.

Knives Out i really enjoyed, not really under the radar.

SunnySide · 06-10-2020, 04:32 PM

Knives out was good. I over rely on rotten tomatoe scores so I had an over-hyped expectation for this movie.

Once Upon the Time in the West - rewatched this classic. Going through the Sergio Leone catalogue, hard to believe he only did 9 movies. hes like the Tarantino of the 60s-70s. Sometimes brutal violence. if you havent watched it and like his others (good, bad ugly etc) ... its a must watch.

Gone With the Wind -- Ive never seen this and really want to.

BaltimoreSkins · 06-10-2020, 04:36 PM

Not a movie but I am rewatching Twin Peaks from the 90s. So cheesy it is fun.

Warthog · 06-19-2020, 04:35 AM

Gone with the Wind is a classic, although it views the South through the eyes of 1939 America.

Trivia: Vivian Leigh is actually British. Clarke Gable’s real wife was killed in a flying accident in 1942 while on a War Bonds Drive. Gable then entered the Army Air Corps in the Bomber Command, which was extremely hazardous early in the war. Mostly he made movies for the Air Corps but they did allow him to do some combat flights.

Lesley Howard (Ashley Wilkes) was also British, had served in WWI and was killed in service in WWII.

Train to Pusan is excellent.

Def one of my favorite movies of the last five 5 years...in a period of just terrible movie making, this movie stands out. And that chick in there is a flippin smokeshow.

Beastie Boys story... if you're a fan it's worth the watch. Basically an abridged version of the book.
