Closeness to reality: 8/10 and climbing

Agreed, the older that movie gets the more realistic is has become. 

I mean look at the current President vs say, most of the last 6 or 7 POTUS's. Look at who the Ds are trying to replace him with, someone with obvious dementia. 

This is not to turn this threat political as I am saying both sides suck. But every single democrat (or republican 4 years ago) that was running and could rub 2 brain cells together, "we" ran them off and are putting up completely ignorant of reality candidates. I am using the actual definition of ignorant there, not "stupid".

Take this trend out 30-40 years and good Lord, a dumb person now would be smarter than the people running everything.

10 Commandments.

8/8.

Great flick.

Minions

7/10

Go watch it, and thank me later... 

Saw My Spy yesterday.  I saw the reviews so far, and they're not good, but I've been enjoying Dave Bautista in things, so I figured I'd give it a whirl.  Not that bad.  Campy and formulaic, but still entertaining.

6.5/10

Watched THE DEATH OF STALIN earlier this evening.

Watched THE DEATH OF STALIN earlier this evening.

Good movie. I might rewatch since it's on streaming now.

Not going to rate them, but 2019 was an incredible year for movies and here is my top 5:

1) Parasite, and it’s not even close 

2) The King

3) 1917

4) jojo rabbit

5) joker

Movies people liked that I didn’t:

the farewell 

Knives out (I fucking hated this movie)

other than those two, didn’t dislike much else. Once upon a time, marriage story, and the report just missed my top 5

Parasite is on hulu. We'll probably watch it tomorrow night.

It’s so good. 
Have you seen the king?

Never heard of it.

Never heard of it.

on Netflix, highly recommend. Not sure if you’re into medieval war flicks, but it’s about King henry V with a pretty decent cast: timothee chamalet (dumb name, good actor), Robert Pattinson, and Joel edgerton. Brad Pitt was involved quite a bit, I believe as a producer. 
 

i fricken loved it 

The female lead is Johnny Depp’s daughter. She’s great in it.

I’ve said many times it’s the best year since 1999, imo. 

I Am Legend alternate ending version. 🔥🔥🔥

Definitely an improvement on the first ending  but I won’t spoil it. 

Rewatched Jojo Rabbit. Enjoyed it more the first time. Still pretty good, though. 

The Way Back - 5/10. Thought I was signing up for a sports movie with deadbeat Ben Affleck which is the best (see: The Town) but instead got something much more depressing. 

Groundhog Day
Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Besides the double feature or Caddyshack and Major league

I watched The Iceman the other night- holy shit if half of that is actually true....jesus he was a bad man.

Not yet, needed to watch movies that didn't require my full attention. I will be watching Parasite tonight or tomorrow night.
