Disaster Artist is as good as advertised. Franco becoming Wiseau was mesmerizing. Dave Franco was pretty terrible as he always is but didn't matter. Hilarious and tragic. Oddly enough Zac Efron has about 2 minutes of screen time as Chris-R and stole the show.

Going again tomorrow.

I like Drive more too but still enjoyed Baby Driver. I'm curious what this Wheelman movie on Netflix is about. Have you seen it?

I love how they're just basically remaking The Lost World. A sequel to a remake of a sequel to the original trilogy...

And yet I'm still gonna see it, cuz dinosaurs.

I don't understand why you'd give her the CGI anime eyes when everyone else looks normal. Never really read any of the Alita manga, is it essentially just a rip-off of Ghost in the Shell? Cuz that's what it seems like it is.

Can't believe they're doing all these anime/manga adaptations but no live-action Akira movie yet....

Was a little concerned about how much I'd enjoy it after hating the last season, but they did a really good job of it.

The Lassiter cameo killed me.

No Country for Old Men turned out to be just as much a waste of time in 2017 as it was when I first saw it ten years ago.

And you’re still in the minority regarding that film, as you were when it came out 10 years ago. ;)

Really? What about it screams pointless to you? Believe me, I’m not attacking your opinion. I’m just genuinely curious. The stakes regarding the plot aren’t high per se, but lives are at stake the whole time. Life and living is the opposite of pointless in my mind.

I feel like we're usually in sync with lot of movies and TV shows and then every once in awhile you have these hot takes where I do a double take so fast I end up with whiplash.

Like when you said Wind River was the worst movie you've seen in years.

I'm not going to speak for RS, people like what they like and dislike what they dislike, I dunno.

I liked Wind River a lot too which was why that one stood out in my mind.

There isn't much to it, but I love the Lethal Weapon series so much.
