We have a house south of Jackson, WY and the views in that movie always take me back when we are sitting in Nevada.

Cool!

I watched The Glass Onion and I thought it was good. Although Daniel Crag’s attempt at a southern accent got a little old. I’d still give it a birdie.

It’s actually a Cajun accent.

The name Benoit Blanc should have been enough of a clue.

Wind River is easily a 9.5/10 

 

Avatar 2 - terrible. Just awful. Worse the the first one and that was a pile of shit

I didn’t even waste my time on the first Avatar. I have zero desire to watch either of them.

Don’t hold back. Tell us how you really feel. 😜

Why did you watch it BTW?

Interesting. I wouldn't have thought that was Cajun. It didn't sound anything like accents I remember from when I was at Ft Polk and it doesn't sound anything like my Cajun neighbor.

I got dragged to it with the rest of the fam for an afternoon together.

The Menu, par.

I knew the gist of it, but I still liked the ending with the cheeseburger. Maybe knowing about it spoiled it a bit, but then again… it's not a movie I'm going to watch again. So, a par feels right.

The Pale Blue Eye. Par - Murder mystery set at West Point when Edgar Allen Poe attended. Acting was excellent.

The Pale Blue Eye. Bogie - Murder mystery set at West Point when Edgar Allen Poe attended.   UGH!

I had a tough time getting thru the first 30 minutes!

Ok, that is hilarious. I kind of want them to make like a 90 minute short film now.

Shotgun Wedding with Jennifer Lopez and Josh Duhamel, triple bogey. I went in expecting to just have a light rom-com in the background, and except for this scene… the movie stinks. We got just over halfway through it before we turned it off. Even in the background, it was terrible.

I also turned off You People, which I'm just giving a double bogey. I'm going to quote this from Letterboxd, which does a pretty good job of describing it…

Quote

An extremely cringeworthy shot at a topical, edgy comedy that forgets it has to actually be funny instead of solely sanctimonious, You People features Jonah Hill going against type and trying to play the “grounded”, woke, morally upstanding protagonist in what might be his official peak of self-obsession, which is already a high bar.
