Enjoyed watching. Not amazing but entertaining. There were a few aspects I felt could have been delved into deeper.

Agree on Mandalorian. An extended episode of the show. Didn't regret going but also wouldn't blame someone for waiting for it to hit streaming. Things to nitpick for sure but also was mostly entertained which is the point of going to the movies

---

They got it in IMAX at Northpark. Worth it?

I think so. We saw in 3D, and it was cool.

Cole Hauser says more than 3,000 snakes caught on 'Dutton Ranch' North Texas set

Depends on your level and type of Star Wars fandom. I'll definitely be seeing The Odyssey in IMAX

Was just talking to a buddy of mine. 50 year anniversary of seeing Midway with Charlton Heston at North Park

New invention "Sensor Round" - early version of surround sound

Hadnt gone and seen it yet. Sounds like I can wait until it comes out on Neflix

If you can get through the very thick and varying accents of the UK, then Legends on Netflix is pretty good. A little bit of a slow burner, but good. Never realized how unique the Liverpool accent was...

Haven't seen it. Thanks for the note, will give it a looksee

Taylor Sheridan's Lioness is premiering its third season later this summer.

The Zoe Saldaña-led Paramount+ series began filming in Fort Worth in October 2025 and wrapped in March. The espionage thriller follows CIA operative Joe (Saldaña) as she balances her "personal and professional lives as the tip of the spear in the agency's war on terror."

Paramount announced Friday, June 5, that Lioness Season 3 will premiere on Sunday, Aug. 2.

Hail Mary. Both book and movie are excellent.

Anthropoid was excellent.

Ultimate psycho.

As an aside, never seen a person who looks different in every photograph. Hard to tell if it actually was her in all of those photos.

Manchester by the Sea was one of the most depressing movies I have ever seen. Wife said it was the worst. Waste of a Friday night.

No desire to see it

I regret it! Can't get that time back... That bad.

LBJ was entertaining.

I like the Harlen Corbin (?) pulp shows on Netflix ... just finished I Will Find You and it was good.

FDR is worth watching.

How to Make a Killing on HBO. Not bad but too predictable. ******* love child grows up and decides that he is going to ge his inheritance any way he can

Saw Toy Story 5. Liked it. Thought it was closer to the feel of the earlier movies than TS4 was.

Mostly it was good to see Pixar feeling like Pixar again.

A big theme is the idea that kids are growing up too fast. Part of the blame is pointed at screens. If you think of that as political, it could be argued. I can't think of anything else but I might have missed something

Have not watched FDR or LBJ yet, but really enjoyed the ones on Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Teddy Roosevelt.

makes it even better when you realize its based on a true story.

'The Physician' - an apprentice 'barber' in medieval times, see's a Jewish doctor operate on his master's cataracts. It is a success. Follows his journey through England, France, the Mediterranean, Egypt and to Persia.

Muslims would have killed him on sight as a Christian so he wanders as a Jew so that he can study with a great Persian physician and teacher, played by Ben Kingsley.

It's about 12-13 years old, but really good

I enjoyed because it shows the context of the times the decisions were made. We tend to look back and pass judgement when in FDR's case he faced some big problems. Also, his illness puts a different spin on some of his social decisions.

Not passing value judgements on the policies, just saying it makes you think when you see the issues they dealt with at the time. Same with Johnson.

Watching "Elvis Presley in Concert". He goes down the master list from my childhood.

Back in the 50s, I was a little kid running around our family's rental store on 25th and Gorman in Waco. I would play around all the heavy equipment. I think the nail guns were my favorite, sans the caps that shot them off. It was okay because I had one heck of an imagination.

Anyway, this DJ from Dallas that commuted from his home in Waco. Eddie Fadal, who lived a couple of blocks over on Maple, would come into the store occasionally. One day he came in with this big, strapping young man from Fort Hood to rent a floor sander as they just added a room onto his house and needed to sand the floors smooth. Those floor sanders were big and heavy and they needed this guy to put it into his car.

They were about to load it, and Eddie was looking around for his buddy. Then he heard the screaming, as loud as possible. He looks over and sees him throwing me up in the air, with me yelling as loud as my little lungs could scream.

Eddie laughs and says, "Elvis, put Paul down!"

If I had only known...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elvis stayed over at the Fadal's while he was at Fort Hood, on his off days. Eddie added on a room to his house especially for Elvis.

The worst part about my ordeal is that someone took pictures of it. My parents couldnt give a darn about Elvis and gave them to one of the employees was a big Elvis fan. That part of the story was told to me by my mother many years later.

Add - When I got the boot from Midway, I went to Richfield with Janice and Dana Fadal. Janice was my age and Dana a couple of years younger.

So we went to see Supergirl. I hadn't heard much about itincluding some of the weird things the star had said.

It was not what I expected. More dystopian SF than a super hero movie. Feels like the worlds in something like Alien. A fair bit of action. At times funny. Generally not a bad storythough a rather predictable one.

Silo has returned for S3. Episode 1 is out and I watched. Basically forgot everything that happened so spent much of the episode trying to remember what happened much like the main character.

I've never been completely blown away by the show but the mystery and intrigue is enough that I've kept watching. Honestly, was unaware S3 was being released until opening Apple TV and it came up. Would recommend reading a summary for anyone who watched S1 & S2.
