Watched Mystery Men for the first time in years. It was weird watching it after years of Marvel movies. Still kind of funny in parts, but also kind of awkward in others.

Netflix Fyre festival doc


There was something magical about watching those influencers suffer, but how they hurt the locals was despicable

Hustlers might be my favorite movie of the year so far. That was fucking awesome. J Lo gives the best performance of her career and one of the best I've seen this year. Totally baller.

I wanna see that one. Jennifer Lopez used to be such a force. U - Turn, Money Train, Out Of Sight, The Cell...and then she began to do crap.

Hopefully this is her return.

Oh U - Turn is awesome. I love it. The Cell...not so much. I love the art design though.

but both of those movies are way way better than anything she did in the past years. I mean...its like she retired.

Watched Once Upon a Time in Venice last night, it was alright.

Currently watching Annabelle Comes Home. So far it's pretty average

It might be worth calling time on this franchise. This isn't what Ed and Lorraine Warren would have wanted

I haven't seen Annabelle Comes Home just yet but haven't been too impressed with any of the features other than The Conjuring and its direct sequel. I'm looking forward to part 3 but the franchise being sold as a collective 'universe' is simply a cash grab... and a relatively lucrative one.
