    Day Shift. Terribad movie was terribad / 10.

    Comment


      Just saw Prey and it is definitely the best Predator movie since the original. I liked how the predator matched firepower with whatever its target was. Although, the stealth kill near the end was a hacker move when it was in a bit of trouble. But otherwise, it went hand to hand, spear, or ranged, whenever the opponent did. It made the fights seem possible and made sense from the challenge perspective for the hunter. It also worked with the original as Arnie and crew brought serious firepower with them. Surprisingly, the ending actual worked. The entire setup had me doubting they could pull it off. But, they did. Beautiful British Columbia really shined as well. Enjoyable surprise (8/10)

        Like I said, possibly wrong, but that’s how I read it.

        The French Fur Trade was huge in North America at the time. This was historical correct:

                  Prey. Pretty good outing for the franchise. I put it as good as the Adrian Brody one.

                  If I have to give one critique its that French fur traders and trappers usually kept very good relations with native tribes. Just not smart or good for business as the French were far fewer in number than native populations and that was the case till the end of French rule in NA. Tho they did ally with some tribes who had enemies with others. Such as the Hurons vs the Iroquois. Or with varied tribes vs the British they didnt willy nilly seek out to abuse native peoples at the time. They were also very willing to intermarry with them and convert them to catholicism as that helped to create bonds... but yea that whole thing was more to showcase the european conquest aspect which all empires from across the pond engaged in to some extent so that works on some level for the film.

                        super cool bts clip from Prey, since it seems like most people here at least saw it, even if not everyone loved it. the practical effects are really cool.

                        also, the f word filter messes with the link. just gotta copy it into browser and spell it out lol

                            I really liked this movie too. Its one that sticks with you days after seeing it, which to me is always a sign of a truly good film.

                              My Octopus Teacher was one of these movies, at least for me. It's a documentary though.

                                      Hey guys - Joking or otherwise can we please leave labeling groups orientation as nonsense, or anything else that can be seen as derogatory?

                                      I do understand some are uncomfortable with certain representations in film and on TV, but let’s refrain from bashing here on the forum.

                                      Thanks for understanding.

                                        Watched Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension. It was a rewatch and only because someone reminded me it had awesome bass. It really did have some of the hardest hitting bass I've heard.

                                            Top Gun Maverick - 7.5/10 Pretty good. Great aerial footage. Decent story/character arcs. Felt a bit long and tacky at times though.

                                              Bond marathon up next in Prime. Can’t believe they have the whole collection on there.

                                              Finally can watch movies from the good old days.

                                                  It's a guilty pleasure for me. If he had cut out certain parts the movie could be a solid 4/10.

                                                    From Russia with Love. Good tension on the train / 10.

                                                      I'm thankful it didn't cost me anything (but some time) to go see it.
                                                      Felt like a TV Movie from the 80s. CRINGEY dialogue delivered by a great actor, still sucks.
                                                      Are your pockets full of macaroni and cheese, too?

                                                      See more of my horrible photos, and a few good ones here.

                                                          The whole family escape part was unnecessary as he had already done this in 2012.

                                                              I just watched Orphan and First Kill back to back. Both are pretty decent, First Kill is pretty good at telling the backstory.

                                                                The first part of the movie seemed a bit cheap. And I remember seeing the husband in a no-budget movie, so I figured I got duped into watching a direct-to-DVD style sequel.

                                                                But, I give them credit for the twist in this one. It was far-fetched, but it was an unexpected way of not just rehashing the exact same story from the first one.

                                                                  overall i liked it but i feel like there were serious issues with building up the character's backgrounds and setting up the story better. it just felt rushed? or something. it could have been WAY better i think. brad pitt is freaking god though. carried that movie. Shia was surprisingly good too.

                                                                      Nope. Bored after 20 mins / 10.

                                                                        This is more of a drama, with some light comedy, even though the description might make it sound more like a murder mystery.

                                                                        I liked this one. I think it kind of nailed a lot of the problems with discourse right now.

                                                                          Yeah just saw it as well. Solid. The Jennifer Connelly scenes really dragged on for some reason. She's great in everything I have seen her in but seems there was no passion there at all. Maybe cause they don't really set up her character...
                                                                          Also I can't be the only one a little annoyed how they glazed over the fact of how exactly he stole an F-18 to do his canyon run. Pretty sure you can't just steal a jet like that... At least show him having to bribe some grounds person to sneak on or something. They show them stealing a plane later on but that was in the middle of a bombed-out airport in another country with lots of chaos going on...

                                                                              Forgot to mention that watched 13 Lives...also enjoyed that as a family watch movie. Have no idea why amazon says 16+ age group...its really pg as far as I'm concerned.
