I don't even remember watching that movie.
So obviously I didn't recommend it
Especially to you.Watch the movie or not with Franco or Hill. Don't matter either way.
That got me thinking though, Will Smith and Johnny Depp should do a movie together.

I was watching Aliens yesterday and realized something that annoys me: the trope of the helpless/dumb kid.
In this case, Newt was pretty cool as she helped out Ridley. But if you look at a lot of other movies, the kid/s is a combo of useless and downright dumb. Even worse, the kid is often used as a driver to continue the story or add some drama/trouble (e.g. kid gets caught and has to be rescued, kid makes dumb mistake and f--- it up for everyone).
Thankfully, we have some smart, clever kids in films to balance that out.

No, but she will be back in her bright green glory in Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2.
And on the Warcraft movie, since I have no history with the game, I just can't get past the Orcs-on-Steriods looking characters in it. Makes it look like a LOTR rip-off rip off to me.

[h1]Here’s the first photo from the newest Boston gangster movie[/h1]
Though it stars a recent Oscar winner and is produced by Martin Scorsese, it likely won’t have much in common with The Departed.
Armie Hammer, Brie Larson, and Cillian Murphy star in 'Free Fire,' an upcoming gangster movie set in Boston in 1978.
Yet another crime movie set in Boston that stars an Oscar winner and is produced by Martin Scorsese is coming to theaters. But this one is almost guaranteed to be a bit different than the ones audiences are used to seeing.
Set in Boston in 1978, Free Fire chronicles a meeting in a deserted warehouse between two Irish gangs doing an arms deal. When things go awry, the warehouse turns into a shootout and a game of survival. The film stars 2015 Best Actress Oscar winner Brie Larson (Room), Armie Hammer (the Winklevoss twins in The Social Network), and Cillian Murphy (Scarecrow in Batman Begins, Inception).
Beyond the principal cast and its Boston setting, what make Free Fire intriguing is director Ben Wheatley and executive producer Martin Scorsese. Though Scorsese isn’t directing the film, adding his seal of approval as a producer speaks volumes from a man whose mastery of the gangster film genre (The Departed, Casino, Goodfellas) is unquestioned.
Wheatley, meanwhile, is a buzzworthy young director who has yet to have a breakout hit. His latest movie, High-Rise, has been hugely divisive. The film takes place almost exclusively in a massive luxury high-rise building that turns into an ultraviolent, class-driven Lord of the Flies-esque setting when the power goes out. There were walkouts reported during the film’s world debut at the Toronto Film Festival, and a few audience members walked out of the theater during its screening at the Boston Independent Film Festival earlier this month, but many critics have praised it. (It’s currently playing at Kendall Square Cinema, for those interested.)
Wheatley named Reservoir Dogs as one of Free Fire’s influences, while a film executive described Free Fire’s narrative as “very contained.” Considering those comments and High-Rise’s insular nature, it’s a good bet that the film will be light on backstory and side plots and heavy on the visceral, thrilling, perhaps even grisly sequences.
Though many speculated that Free Fire would make its debut at the Cannes Film Festival, it now appears that the film will likely hit the festival circuit in September instead, with a possible theatrical release tentatively scheduled later in 2016.

Everest was pretty boring. Jake gyllenhal had a great performance that was a different character than we're used to him playing. But other than that, it was pretty mediocre.

^^ Free Fire looks good. That's a pretty solid cast beyond Hammer.

Could have sworn your post said "behind" and I was going to say, you mean behind Larson
.Won't touch The Departed, but I'm interested.

If so I might check that out tonight.
Can't wait for the Boston Gangster joint w/ Cilian Murphy. Dude eats his roles every time.
