I was a little disappointed, because it wasn't as scary as I thought it'd be, but it was a fun watch. I'd suggest don't have high expectations if you haven't seen it. Solid cast.

But occasionally she shows her assets too much. Today... it's like the Seinfeld episode - I can't look straight on or anywhere in the neighborhood, as I'm blnded by the sun. She's wearing a super-tight bright white dress, plunging a LOT... and it's... spectacular. She's in mid 30's, so I assume she knows how this affects people. Do you say anything to her in today's work climate?

Never forget the young lady that I worked with years ago that did not wear a slip to work. I could see right through the dress and probably read the print on her panties.

This was about 15 years ago and yes I was very distracted... In retrospect I wish I could have hooked up with her knowing what I know about my ex-wife. If I could go back in time I would have done the wrong thing or at least tried to.

Nowadays here in Hawaii I see people in thongs all the time so it's not a big deal anymore.

I saw a quiet place.

Pretty good and no it was not that scary.

That first kid should have left that toy alone...

Yup... his poor sister had to deal... that was sad.

The birth scene was just agonizing.

Didn't like the way the Dad went out, either.

The TV show coming out, Detroiters, features a black, male lead. He was one of the principal actors in a film I did background.

It was surreal.

All I have to say is it was a God moment being on that set. Won't say any more...wish I could. Ask me in about 5 years...

I liked the scene, (even though they tried to make it an overly dramatic father/daughter moment in a movie featuring almost zero backstory) but why couldn’t he just throw something across the field? So many plot holes in that movie.

Saw Uncle Drew today, very entertaining and a family movie with teaching qualities. Also, Chris Webber was hilarious.

Who was the "... is suck" guy? Diderotn? Maybe he was Ovi and Ovi was him. :wink:

it was surreal to watch webber and shaq on the court again.

Pancakes3 - your name makes me have a craving for some ihop. Uncle Drew was good, the only player my kids recognized was Shaq, who they also made a point of watching on SharkWeek. The big fella has charisma.

In light of the work he's doing for at-risk kids in his home state, I no longer hate Lebron James as much as I once did. In fact, I might actually respect the guy.

He might be the "Jimmy Carter of the NBA". So much more likeable outside of office.

I also find myself respecting him more as a player. Like might be too strong, but the hate of the past seems a lot less relevant.

Lebron for pre... no, i won't go there. But he does have the requisite ego, and he keeps on impressing.

I had the thought that he might be the president someday.

I spoke to Jimmy Carter at a book signing in Columbus Georgia not far from where he lives. He signed a book called our endangered values. Sorry for the auto-correct errors. He is very nice man outside of office and I believe he was probably nice inside of office if not misguided or naive
