Re: rate the last movie you saw

Batman (1989) Live in Concert The Warner Theater in DC had a one night only showing of Tim Burton's Batman with Danny Elfman's score performed live to picture. It was fun time, and the crowd was very excited to see the film. I walked in behind someone in full Batman costume, which had to have been u...

Re: Rate The Last TV Show Episode You Watched

Haven't watched the finale yet, but I feel the same way about Reacher season 2. Too many bland fight scenes, people making terrible choices (why did the good cop just walk up to the guys shooting at him. He had cover behind the car?) . Also, did they film all of Robert Patrick scenes in one afternoo...

I lasted half an hour before turning it off. The same old cliched characters and formulaic CGI effects.
It was okay, but I don't remember a thing about it, other than Hugh Grant seemed to be having fun.

Re: GODZILLA MINUS ONE - Andy's Review

My 6th grade son and I went and saw Godzilla Minus One last night. I'm not a huge Godzilla fan...mostly enjoy watching the old cheesy 60's ones. I always zoned out during the human stuff. I warned my son that this was not like that, and was subtitled, and was more of a 'serious' Godzilla movie. I th...

Re: Halloween Horror Marathon 2023

I agree Andy, Haunted Mansion sucked. I actually preferred the Eddie Murphy one by a large margin. That one looked like some money was spent, this one just looked cheap. My son said he liked it, but to me it needed to either be a LOT funnier or a LOT scarier. And I noticed the same thing about how c...

Re: Weekend Box Office 10/29 - Some Video Game Horror Movie For Kids Breaks Halloween Records

I'm not surprised....Five Nights At Freddys has been HUGE with kids for years now. It's flown under the radar for a lot of adults. But young kids who played it when it first came out are now teenagers/young adults, and they have been looking forward to this all year. Tons of my 7 and 8th grade stude...

Re: rate the last movie you saw

Going to stick this here (I don't think there is a concert thread) I got to see Giacchino's Marvel short film " Werewolf by Night" performed at the Kennedy Center with the NSO last night. It was a really fun concert, a Halloween/Spooky movie themed one. He was there, along with Marvel head...

Re: rate the last movie you saw

DUEL - 7/10 Spielberg's first theatrical movie (albiet in Europe, it started as an US TV movie of the week), is an outstanding little thriller. It's too bad they don't make things like this- full of brightly lit cinematography, practical effects, and a simple story that leaves a lot up to the imagin...

Re: Carl Davis R.I.P.

Huge fan of his silent film scores, but to me, he always had the BEST James Bond recordings...Bond for Orchestra is especially good.

Re: INDIANA JONES & THE DIAL OF DESTINY - June 30th

What I think is odd is how little the Indy theme is used. It's Helena's theme everywhere! Of course it's a long movie, and I would guess we are missing an hour of music. Did Williams leave off all the stuff he didn't conduct? Or did his rewriting of the ending cause it to be left off the soundtrack?...

Pink Panther related story: Me and a few buddies are on a trivia team here at a local brewery. We do pretty well, usually top 3 out of 20 each week. We brought our wives this time. One question was "in the movie The Pink Panther, what is the object the movie is about?" I wrote down "a...
