I saw the new Spider-Man Multiverse movie last night and was very annoyed when it finished with To Be Continued...

I hadn't signed up for a two-parter and I don't know if the dazzling art and animation can get me to another kid's movie.

It used to be an art to tell a story in two hours, now it seems that a lack of concision is an asset!

Watching Charade (1963).

Some zinging dialogue:

Cary Grant is injured. Audrey Hepburn says, "Come in. I've got something that stings like crazy."
Cary Grant: "You're the kind of girl who'd have something like that."

Shifted another classic from my pile of shame: Raging Bull.

This 1980 film from #MartinScorsese has been called the greatest boxing movie ever made and it won Best Picture at that year's Oscars and is frequently cited as De Niro and Scorsese's best ever.

My local cinema was showing the 4K restoration and I, and a couple of friends, went along. Incredibly well made, the director's choice of black and white for the whole film gives a timeless feel to it and seeing it on the big screen provided a glimpse of how audiences must have felt in 1980.

Because it is a confronting movie.

The film deals with attitudes about jealousy and domestic violence, sports and corruption, family and pride.

Like most of Scorsese's films it is unapologetic about its characters and their behaviour. Perhaps that's part of his enduring appeal - that what you see is what you get.

Tis a good night to watch a movie about GOP crime on Turner Classic Movies

#EmergencyNYC is a must-watch mini series! I just finished watching it and I'm blown away by the intense and emotional stories of the first responders in New York City. This series captures the heroism and sacrifice of NYC's emergency personnel. Highly recommend it! #firstresponders #NYC #heroism #sacrifice #mustwatch #intense #emotional #MoviesOfMastodon

Well, that was intense.
#MoviesOfMastodon

For those interested in #LiveTooting the #Discworld miniseries #GoingPostal

It's a two-parter (95 & 91 mins, respectively), and a whole lot of fun!

* Should we watch it over 2 nights/sessions?

* What days/nights are generally good for people?

NOTE: I can't do Sunday nights due to #Monsterdon - so that's a Hard No.

Watching “Rear Window” on Turner Classic Movies. That Grace Kelly was somethin’ else.

A Saturday night jam as I watch “How The West Was Won” on Turner Classic Movies: a masterpiece of movie soundtrack stuff. When we were kids, my brothers and I would re-enact parts of this movie (minus the buffalo stampeding through the railroad camp) to this tune. Of course, we did that when the folks weren’t home. We were sneaky that way. That sorta thing could lead to broken living room windows but we won’t get into that now.

This is, IMHO, one of the most epic fist fights ever in a movie, primarily because of the message.

On Turner Classic Movies now: it was one of the first movies I recall watching as a kid, along with others like “To Kill A Mockingbird” and “In The Heat Of The Night,” that dealt with race issues. And when the Sal Mineo character is KIA in WW2 and he comes home on a flag draped casket, the scenes dealing with that hit a little close to home for me. Then there’s the epic fight scene near the end between Buck Benedict and the owner of a diner, a WW2 vet.

You know you’re a veteran when … I think this may be why at time I’m careful to say “Good morning!”
Sam Elliott was SO good as Basil Plumley

On Turner Classic Movies now: I think I still have a crush on Julie Christie. And while the entire soundtrack by Maurice Jarre is beautiful, my favorite little piece of music from the soundtrack is at the 1:43 mark of this particular one.

Watching Bill & Ted's like it's 1989

One of the best lines from “Blackhawk Down,” a film that also has a fine soundtrack from Hans Zimmer.
#MoviesOfMastodon

“Y'know what I think? Don't really matter what I think. Once that first bullet goes past your head, politics and all that shit just goes right out the window.” - Eric Bana as “Hoot” in Ridley Scott’s “Blackhawk Down,” 2001.

Well, I finally watched this bastard.
I was not ready.

for those of you who like offbeat movies, even if they aren't particularly good, might i recommend Sergio Corbucci's Super Fuzz (which is streaming on amazon prime as Super Snoopers)

like i said not really good - bad writing, bad acting - but a thoroughly insane film that turns out to be fun
