  • Re: The Movie Thread: New, Rented, Whatever....I don't care

    Just saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt 2 on cable.

    I honestly think the Potter movies were quite over-rated and were too neutered by a studio that knew they were sure-fire hits and wanted them to be made cheaply. But ****ed if I won't sit and watch that Pensieve scene every single time I get the chance.

    At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

    Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

          I think Henry died a couple of years ago. In fact, I think it was shortly after he filmed the 30 For 30 movie on the BC point shaving scandal. As I recall, he didn't look too good in that movie.
          That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                      Actually, you may be right. I think I did hear about that, after thinking about it. And he didn't look good at all, although many old-time wiseguys don't. I wish that NatGeo would do this for the other world mafias/orgs than operate in the US. You have the Yakuza, Triads, Red Mafiya/vor z zakone, and the various cartels from Mexico.

                        I saw Into the Woods today:

                        Act One: Very well done by Disney. It was interesting to see Chris Pine in a musical role after playing drunken Captain Kirk, and he did well. The music was catchy but not annoying.
                        Act Two: Just like the play, it goes from a fairly tale to a dumpster fire. I considered leaving the theatre it was so bad. Nothing the characters did made sense.

                          I'd like to counter this by saying that, just like the play, the second act is brilliant and the entire point of the show. And Streep held her own in one of the most difficult roles in musical theater despite following in Peters' incomparable slippersteps, even doing an unassisted "Last Midnight," which has roughly the same graveyard for slain singers as Il Dolce Suono.

                            Didn't realize that the Baker guy - James Corden - is Craig Ferguson's replacement on The Late Late Show.

                              Planning to see Wild this weekend, partly because our 24-year-old daughter just informed us she plans to do the PCT in 2016. Hoping to allay some of those parental concerns.
