Likely won't be mindblowing or epic, but almost guaranteed to be entertaining.

Another heist movie in the Guy Ritchie mold

The Gentlemen was an enjoyable return to form, and this shouldn't disappoint either.

Looks to be a return to Jason Statham actually beating people up. Loved his Transporter stuff.

Now there’s two people I never thought would be in a movie together, strange combo but I like Audrey.

Cheater5 · 12-13-2021, 07:39 PM

Can’t explain it, but I find her hot-hot-hot. Would watch.

**Baby Lee** · 12-14-2021, 02:22 PM

We've been craving actual creativity and wit from Hollywood for a bit now. . .

Perhaps satire from A24 is an apt starting point.

unlurking · 12-14-2021, 03:19 PM

That looks fun. Love Yeoh, so definitely going on the list. I almost didn't recognize Jamie Lee Curtis.

Saw a sneak preview viewing of a new movie called National Championship. It has to do with the star QB going into the NCAA National Championship game who bails to protest student athletes getting paid. Was good. Was bad. Stars J.k. Simmons.

**Baby Lee** · 12-22-2021, 07:02 PM

Jenny?

Gina Rodriguez?

Dating Manny Jacinto and Charlie Day types?

Set to the best Jackson 5, and possibly best pop, song ever?

OK, who raided my Dear Diary?

Hmm. Somehow, this seems vaguely familiar.

If one thinks there are a dearth of new movies, . . . there CERTAINLY is a dearth of new stories to tell in RomComs, unless you just plain ol' adapt existing stories to gay and non-binary relationships of today.

Rarely do you hear the phrase groundbreaking romcom.

Shakespeare probably covered 95% of it to begin with.

**Baby Lee** · 12-25-2021, 11:06 AM

Not my target movie, the life-lesson romcom based on a true story, but looks expertly crafted and Michael B and Denzel have my fealty.

Very moving trailer, opening this weekend.

Story of a dad to be deployed, who didn't make it home, told through the prism of the journal he wrote for his son to be containing the lessons he hoped to impart to him as he grew up.

Dune is pretty good. Not totally happy with Lady Jessica's portrayal, and a couple other minor things, but a pretty good watch overall, and imo a much better movie than the 1984 rendition.
