Re: Changes to Amazon Prime Video (i.e. ads)

Sorry to hear this is happening...they will always figure out a way to try to get more money out of you! Frankly, this whole thing seems to me to be unethical and a grave disservice to customers...total middle finger to the consumer and a worshipful stance towards money in our "attention econom...

Okay...maybe I should just stick to the movies and do a hard pass on the show.

Re: INDIANA JONES & THE DIAL OF DESTINY To Rival "John Carter" As Disney's Biggest Bomb

I have listened to DoD only once...nothing really stuck out to me. It has a modern feel to it musically, but it is just kind of "there". In contrast, I do think the recent SW scores have themes and an overall flow (I agree with you Ed) - I admit that I really like Rey's theme (wish her cha...

Totally agree...and I admit I cried a little towards the end of the film. Lol...

Re: INDIANA JONES & THE DIAL OF DESTINY To Rival "John Carter" As Disney's Biggest Bomb

The cumulative impact of these scores he's written for Disney have, sad to say, added little/nothing to his creative legacy, but they've mostly been successful in keeping him active with those peripheral things he wants to do (and get paid handsomely of course in the process). I still feel those St...

Re: Ridley Scott's Napoleon - "Clumsy, Funny" Critics Torch Scott's Latest

Have no regrets passing on it. Still annoys me that he couldn't get a French actor to portray Napoleon...to be honest, as stupid and immature as it is, that is the one thing that prevented me from watching it in the first place. Now with all the negative press, I will continue to pass on it.

Re: GODZILLA X KONG - March - Trailer

I will definitely watch it, but I have to admit I am not high on the concept for a buddy movie between Godzilla and Kong. If I want a buddy-buddy movie I will watch Tango and Cash...lol...I am sure the spectacle will be grandiose and super entertaining. I am skeptical that the human story will be go...

Re: GODZILLA MINUS ONE - Andy's Review

Outstanding film...basically a reimagining of Godzilla '54 with a bit from Godzilla Raids Again in there (specifically the pilot). Also payed homage to JAWS (agree with everyone there). The story was super moving and I loved that it had a happy ending (the film telegraphed the ejector seat when the ...

Re: Disney & Lightstorm The Abyss, Aliens, True Lies 4K

I am shocked that True Lies is getting worked on. I figured this film would never see the light of day again without making some kind of change to it based on the subject matter.

Re: rate the last movie you saw

But the problem with this film is the central character -- Anakin Skywalker. I don't blame Hayden Christensen, who I honestly think is a good actor. The problem is that the character isn't well-written or defined, and Christensen isn't well-directed. The fundamental issue with this film, for me, is...
