That YT explaining vid of Enemy...

Brilliant movie. Glad it was suggested in here a few days ago.

 

[darthska]

Maze Runner?

Talk about sad. :x

That joint was rough.

Benching Theory for Maze is like benching Philip Rivers for Johnny Manziel.

Hit up Theory at some point, my man.

Magic Mike was good.

People forget it was directed by Steven Soderbergh. It wasn't just 50 Shades of Grey but with strippers, it was a solid movie.. that just happened to be about male strippers.

Check your fantasy scores during the scenes if it bothered you that much, but it was a solid movie.

the first one or XXL?

The first one. Soderbergh didn't return for XXL

Maze Runner?

No Amazon Prime on Chromecast.. Amazon went as far as to remove the actual Chromecast from amazon.com. There might be some workarounds/hacks, though, not sure.

Ah gotcha. Probably due to the Fire stick. I do know there is a XB1 app, so I can just stream through that.

 

[suberzat1]

'Focus' Review:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

5.5/8

Accused of being shallow, which isn't untrue. My interpretation is that 'Focus' is meant to be a light watch, sipping on a nice Malbec to pair with the Argentina scenes after a long 80-hour work week. Let Will Smith and Margot Robbie entertain. The latter did not particularly steal the show, but she wasn't a bad actress either. That assessment is obviously looks aside, as many become captivated by the blonde's bombshell's aesthetic features.

Whether predictable or not, there were enough twists and turns to keep me entertained. Teasing the "Toledo Panic Button" earlier in the film and incorporating it to the ending. Also revealing Nicky's father, who groomed him for this particular con man trade. Ficarra/Requa attempt to explore some deeper themes and plot lines. Nicky's sense of abandonment forged by his father. Him replaying that with Jess in New Orleans.

Another planned surprise is actually learning Owens is Nicky's father. You can see it in hindsight with the personal details Nicky reveals to Jess during "pillow talk." Hard-nosed, no-nonsense kind of guy is Nicky's father, like Owens. Which is all part of the con. Owens telling Garriga, "I don't like him" and "I don't trust him." Owens' whole rant about the problem with your generation. Sarcasm, technologically-reliant, lazy, etc.

Enjoyed the Superdome scene. Exploring the power of suggestion, forcing Tse to unconsciously absorb the number 55 throughout the day. The scene prior hinting Nicky's issue with gambling. Jess being involved with the con unknowingly, her surprise and reaction necessary elements to fool Tse.

I also found Nicky's explanation in seducing women near the ending to be applicable and accurate in real life. The sociological steps and process he unwinds in front of Garriga, Owens, Jess. "Women like shared history." Breaking the barrier with Farhad. "Exploring emotion." In the Malbec scene, testing Jess' reaction to Nicky's forced and at the time fraudulent vulnerability.

Champ that's awesome ^ what exactly do ya do again?

PMed, brotha.

The holiday movies talk has me nostalgic. As cheesy as it may seem, I've enjoyed watching 'I'll Be Home for Christmas' and 'Jack Frost' from childhood. '98 films while opening presents, drinking hot chocolate, and eating cookies.

Saw Magic Mike last night. Watched it w/ my girl. Her pick, obviously.

In the same boat tonight. Apparently '50 Shades' is airing at 8 tonight on HBO. Got 73 notifications on my TV.

I won the Clasico and my beloved Buckeyes, but lose Canelo/Cotto plus UFC later.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Starting Jessica Jones right now

 

[suberzat1]

Just finish Maze Runner it seems like one of those ok movies to keep watching to find out the end story

Now to find something else to watch

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Halfway through e1 it's pretty chill so far. I like what I'm seeing. I'm a sucker for strong enigmatic female characters like this.

 

[suberzat1]

Alright dont think anyone mention this movie but im going to watch Song of the Sea. Suppose to be a good animated flick

 

 

[sea manup]

jessica jones season uno

7.3/8

kingpin had a better villain imo but this was the more engaging and focused series

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Damn the ending to e1

About The Prince of Pennsylvania Film Summary Back in the 1980s, the road to the Olympics was long and hard for an amateur wrestler. But then along came John du Pont, an eccentric heir to the family fortune with a passion for wrestling. His 800-acre Foxcatcher Farm outside Philadelphia became the hub of the sport, with state-of-the-art training facilities, free accommodations, generous stipends and the support of America's best freestyle wrestlers, brothers Mark and Dave Schultz. It all seemed too good to be true -- and tragically it was, with a savage ending. Featuring fresh testimonials and never-before-seen footage, "The Prince of Pennsylvania" is the story of a paradise lost to the madness of its creator, a man who had the means to buy anything except for the one thing he truly wanted.

Recommended by Sullivan


 

I also recommend this.


Especially after having seen Foxcatcher, this 30 for 30 is another HR.

Maze Runner?

Talk about sad. :x

Leave Johnny Manziel alone!!! [emoji]128534[/emoji]

Song of the Sea is a great movie. I don't want to be a "hater" but I do try to look for any non-disney films worth watching. haven't been disappointed so far

 

[d0nny donowitz]

watched this on a whim on netflix ... really good ... those israeli army girls

 

[lawdog1]

Watching Inside Out. Pixar byke. So creative.

 

[sea manup]

good dinosaur coming out soon too 

 

[big j 33]

I took my nephew to see The Peanuts Movie.. it was pretty entertaining, it definitely kept the spirit of the original characters and Schulz work.. but he kept begging me to see The Good Dinosaur the whole day.

I tried explaining it's not out yet and he insisted it was. He's four. And then he saw the poster up at the theater for The Good Dinosaur and he freaked out and yelled "I told you it's playing"

Was really, really good. Some serious feels too.
