Dreyfus was on a chat show here raving about him recently. Apparently he was the real deal but never acted before or after that? Not sure I believe it.

Shaw was an amazing actor who starred in a bunch of movies.

No role better than Jaws though I’m betting.

That would definitely be a safe bet.

I must look him up. Ashamed to say I know nothing about him other than he was from Waterford and was in Jaws

You a James Bond guy? He was the blonde heavy in From Russia with Love.

Great movie. Not Disney but great.

It isn’t? I didn’t know that. Now or then. Just remember it’s being dark and scary.
Would like to see it again.

It's a Don Bluth film. He also did All Dogs Go To Heaven and Anastasia and Land Before Time and An American Tale. All great films.

My phone is listening to me. This just popped up.

How Don Bluth changed the face of feature animation

From his studio in Dublin, the American animator rivalled Disney during the 1980s and early ’90s.

I watched the Tom Cruise drug runner movie last night. I liked it.

Baby Groot is super cute and funny, but outside of that Guardians of the Galaxy 2 is nowhere near as good as the first one. I watched them both back-to-back tonight.

I’m not really looking forward to teenage groot.

Heh

Insidious: The Last Key.

Its surprising how fun this movies are with Elise as the main focus. This one is flawed, but really scary...the first half of the movie is actually very compelling...the ending...not so much.

Im interested on them doing one more.

I hope they never stop making Insidious movies

The production design is so clever they could do so many stories with the Further. But i want one more with these characters and then maybe move on.

What is this insidious you speak of?

It's a rom-com series you should check out, dime

That sounds terrible.

What channel is it on?

The horror movie series produced by jason blum and written by Leigh Whannel. James Wan directed the first two. Pretty great stuff.

The Post is a fascinating film for many reasons. Spielberg is a traditionalist who shoots with youthful energy, and an old-fashioned, American optimist who is cognizant of contemporary concerns while never losing sight of historical context. This is a film about, of course, Trump and the press, but it’s also about challenging societal gatekeepers and how American democracy functions under duress. Leave it to Spielberg to remind me what it’s like to believe in Americanism. I loved it.

You’re lost in the message which is as subtle as a hammer to the head, and ignoring the piss poor lazy performances and even worse the dire storytelling


If you’re ok with that last and totally unnecessary scene, you are fucked.
