Master of the Universe - Jut came out on Prime.

Pretty corny as expected! Didnt have anything to do this afternoon so killed a couple of hours. Dolph Lundgren made a cameo (first movie He-Man)

---

I hate that - loved Ha-Man as a kid and really wanted it to do well ... it was gone before I realize it was out.

It's on Prime if you subscribe

Song Sung Blue was very good. Would recommend.

i liked it was well

watched Chernobyl, excellent. Disturbing, sad and frustrating but excellent show. Highly recommend.

Going to be caffeinated tonight. 70mm IMAX showing of The Odyssey at 11pm. Had to wait a bit to get good seats for a film IMAX showing. I'll give a review after at some point. Only 41 true IMAX theaters in the world. The rolls of the film are 11 miles long and around 800 pounds or something.

Whether I recommend or not I do think Nolan deserves credit for shooting the entire thing in IMAX and having technology created to get it done. Too many people taking short cuts in today's world. Formulaic blockbusters have taken over. Where's the risk taking?

Spielberg with Jaws and Jurassic Park. They shot most of Jurassic Park before knowing if the dinosaurs would properly work on screen.

Indiana Jones. Now all the heroes are surrounded by CGI. It's not always bad, Guardians of the Galaxy comes to mind, but I feel like we're missing a young director coming up who knows how to make a film sans CGI. Where's the next Spielberg, Ridley Scott, Nolan, or Villeneuve?

"Furious" with Emma Rossum. Remember Fiona from Shamless? Good actress. She's a former NYC HOmicide detective in this one, an FBI rookie agent

Texan Scoot McNairy is in it too sporting a slight NYC accent

Saw Spider-Man: Brand New Day last night. Good movie. Marvel keeps messing up a lot of its movies lately, but for some reason, they seem to stay on track with Spider-Man. Definitely has some good action sequences.

Saw it last night. Thought it was great. When Marvel focuses on making good movies and not radical politics it can make great movies.

Saw The Odyssey on 70mm IMAX. Great spectacle, good acting, usual Nolan craftsmanship with very little to no CGI. Wouldn't put it in my top 3 Nolan movies but that doesn't mean it isn't a great film.

Ludwig Goransson did a solid score. The Sirens scene and music was superb. All the songs feature time period instruments vs standard orchestra or synthesizers. Guess Hans Zimmer was busy with Dune 3. Which mentioning Dune 3 there were no trailers at the theater, just a 3 minute clip from Dune 3 and then The Odyssey started. Dune 3 looks to be epic.

"Live, Liberty and the Pursuit of Unhappiness" the new Larry David project

Starts off with an Barack Obama introduction. IMO, starting a comedy off with a poorly regarded, non-funny POTUS is not the smartest thing to do.

And Larry David may be one of, it not the most unfunny comic in the history of comedy. All he ever does is shout his lines. Never got his humor

IMO - Avoid it like the plague it is.

Agree. Horrible.

The Bombing of Pan Am 103 on NF. Based on a true story. They did a really good job weaving in actual footage with the show.

Danny Collins was worth watching.

Not sure if The Chestnut Man has been mentioned. Season 1 was very good. Will watch Season 2 next. The new season of Lioness is out on Paramount - but only releasing one episode a week. First 2 episodes very good.

And Zoe Saldana still looking good at nearly 50. Very pretty lady

For sure! I read that Taylor Sheridan pushed her to train to gain some muscle for this season. She looks great.

Speaking of Taylor, what a great writer. And not a bad actor. He's bringing so much stuff to Texas!

"The Carpenter's Son" with Nick Cage. Very strange retelling of Jesus' youth. Demons, snakes, scorpions, lepers, healing... not horrendous, but is probably too sacrilegious for most

On Hulu for Nat Geo. "Lion", 4 part series showcasing a lion cub growing to be a King of the jungle. I wanted more

Chad Powers; "You getting your talking points from Skip Bayless now?"

(disgraced former Dallas sportswriter)

Been watching South Korean and Japanese shows. They are entertaining and have some good story lines. More story driven, less sex. But very violent, lots of hand to hand and gangs. Interesting.

We went to see Coyote vs. Acme. My simple suggestion: wait to see it cheaply. It's not terrible. It has a few really funny moments. It's not Loony Tunes quality, though. It's just kind of dumb overall.

Saw the new Spiderman. Solid popcorn flick. Do their take on Spiderman growing up. Some fun songs mixed into the soundtrack. Would recommend having at least an understanding of the last film before seeing the new one.

I'm pretty superheroed out but enjoy certain films. Spiderman is one of those.

They showed preview for the new Avengers film. Not sure I'll see. Too many heroes. How many times can the world be saved while also being partly destroyed? Maybe I've outgrown caring or maybe the fatigue will start hitting more people.

Been fatigued with Marvel for a while now. Robert Downey Jr is the worst. Surely they could have found a better Iron Man. (they missed the boat not using Ozzie's 'Iron Man' for theme music every time he appeared)

"The Gentlemen" S2 just came out. Another Guy Ritchie project. Fun

We are hitting that one. The series is much better than the Movie. Yeah, I got a thing for Susie Glass...

I thought the stylish Susie Glass was fine, as is. But she did the same for the Ice Skating show.
