  1. I don't know that I am gonna watch this one, no interest in any of the characters. The others had characters that I grew up with. This has basically no one from my child hood. If the weather is crappy enough maybe a matinee. I did just look and the 5p to 8p showings, 8 of them, are about one third booked up tonight.
  2. Another season, another Mike Trout injury.
  3. So I finally watched the first two episodes of S2 last night and I really liked them. I think they were as good or better than every episode from last season except for one. Thought the pipe was pretty obvious as to what was gonna happen. Did anyone else get a Battle of the Bastards vibe? I haven't watched Ep 3 yet so I can't look in the thread to see if anyone else had similar thoughts.
  4. I watched The Accountant 2 this weekend as well and liked it. It feels like a fun send off for them, more of a buddy film than the original was, and it worked well for me, they seemed to work well off each other. Couple issues one minor one major All in all a fun movie. Watched Havoc on Netflix. Really mixed on it. Visually I loved it, loved the overall look, the way it was shot etc. Story, acting, and having to use close captioning because of Tom Hardy not so much.
  5. Man this reminds me that Jason Segal was way ahead of his time. Forgetting Sarah Marshall.... IYKYK
  6. Apparently they are happy w RB room again!!! I like the CB pick but now we have 3 CB's w leg issues. As to Sanders...the times I watched him he didn't stand out. He played in a weaker conference and didn't jump off the page. He may go in the 4th to a club that doesn't mind the clown show that will follow him and his Legendary status.
  7. And the answer is no. Giants move up to get Dart
  8. And yeah, they are trying real hard to get Sanders drafted in 1st round. I don't see him being anything more than an ok pocket passer.
  9. Same here. I wanted a tackle so we could move Guyton to the right side but we have to wait and see. Dallas has a proven draft history with OL in the 1st round. RB round 2? Trade up for Golden? Will Johnson still on the board and we have a need there also.
  10. I could see Hampton going in the mid-late teens, similar to the Bijan and Jamyr Gibbs draft.
  11. Well it's draft day. Any hot takes? Certain QB from Colorado dropping in the draft, any chance of NC RB Hampton moving into top 20? Which team will make the first head scratching, smarter than everyone else pick?
  12. Forgot to mention that the previews for The Amateur were all movies that I plan to watch, which is rare. Started w Thunderbolts, showed the Russian parts of the team Next was Mission Impossible finale, highlight was a bi plane chase Followed by Fantastic Four... these never seem to be any good but I'll try And finally a different version of The Thunderbolts which centered on Bucky.. Never saw two previews in the same viewing that way before.
  13. Watched The Amateur at the theater. CIA code breakers wife gets killed by terrorists. Gears himself up to get revenge. Over all I thought it was a pretty good movie. Rami Malek plays the lead really well, normally this type of role would be filled by a more brawny type so this casting made sense to the character and he is a really good actor so it all works. They spend just as much time on his and his wife's relationship as they do to the action, and again that balance works really well to keep it from becoming just another action movie. There is some heavy foreshadowing but all in all it was a good movie and worth the trip.
  14. Watched 2 episodes of Mobland yesterday. Haven't decided yet on if it's really good or not. I do not like Pierce Bronsons acting as the family head, seems like he is trying way too hard.
  15. Doubt he gets in but he did put up some impressive numbers. His peak six seasons he avg 1314 yds per year. His best season was 136 catches, 1871 yds and 8 tds. Never was a td machine and didn't have post season success.
  16. Watched The Bondsman on Prime over the weekend. It felt familiar but I can't quite put my finger in what it reminds me of, first thought was Preacher. It's an interesting enough show, and luckily very short, each episode is only about 30 min. Kevin Bacon plays the lead, a Bondsman who gets murdered and brought back from hell to capture escaped demons. Nothing very intelligent or thought provoking about it. Watched an older movie Frailty also on Prime. It's movie about serial killer family of sorts. Also deals with religion and demons, which is why Prime suggested it to me. Matthew McConaughey and Bill Paxton are in it. It's also not bad, has a little twist and turn to it.
  17. Watched A Complete Unknown tonight. I didn't know a lot about Dylan, just his hit songs. Pretty good show, moves along pretty well. Nothing I plan to see again but overall it was enjoyable.
  18. S2 is worse. It showcases the lack of acting ability/charisma and chemistry between the leads. Worse than that is the way they bend over backward to make a scenario where the two leads are together in the movie, not romantically, but in the same area as each other.
  19. I gave up on Lost around S3-4 when I just got sick of nothing ever being resolved. Dark S1 great, S2 tough but intriguing, Lost, great first season, 2-3 good but wandering. Gave up on both.
  20. Dark... I never started the final season. It just started feeling tedious to watch, so much going on that it just wasn't enjoyable anymore. I still plan to finish it someday.
  21. Finished S3 of Reacher today. Not too impressed, better than S2, I think. I may change my mind later though. I like a good dumb show, S1 was just that. This season had just some dumb things in universe, things that in the Reacher world wouldn't happen. That said, if you wanna turn off the brain and just watch a shoot em up w a little mystery this is for you. Just understand that a lot of things don't make sense. The final season, of Bosch Legacy started. Watched Ep1 and it's a pretty typical one. Carries over the story from the end of S2. I've liked Legacy a little more than I did the last season or two of the original series. Little rant about a show I still watch Survivor. The last couple seasons almost feel like an afterschool special teaching us a lesson. Kind of sick of it. I miss the bad people, conniving and cheating people. It's not annoying me enough to stop watching the show, but damn stop with the life lessons and go back to eating slugs and eye balls, burning peoples socks in the middle of the night, stealing food etc.
  22. Watched Den of Thieves Pantera over the weekend. It isn't horrible and it isn't good. If you liked or disliked the original then guess what? Also watched To Catch a Killer this weekend. I had watched this at the theater when it came out and mostly liked it. I still feel the same way. It's a pretty good thriller and not a waste of time to watch.
  23. Yeah, because that's worked out so well for them the last 10 years!
  24. Apparently Winston going to the Giants for 2 yrs 8 mill. Doesn't that seem way underpriced? We all know he is boom or bust but that just seems too low.
