its hard to make something better than the best movie in the world..

Right. But it's a different question. The question isn't 'is there a bettershark track movie thb Jaws?' Because there definitely is not. The question is 'is there even any other decent shark movie other than Jaws?' I don't think there is.

Some movies are so great they invent entire genres, like Nosferatu and vampire movies or Night of the Living Dead and zombie movies. Some movies are so great, like Jaws, the only space left is parody

Sir, are you having a stroke?

Despite all the twisted shit he's likely complicit in and personally responsible for, I can't help but like the guy. He loves movies so much. It's endearing.

I think "shark attack movie" is too narrow to call a genre. I'd call Jaws a monster movie, and one of the best

Yeah he's got charisma out the butt. I'm sure anyone who talks shit about him would immediately be charmed to death if they shared a room.

It’s cool he goes out and watches movies with George Lucas too.

I would let him take me skydiving.

I think that's Christopher McQuarrie, his new boyfriend best friend

There's something off with his face.

I knew it wasn’t Lucas. Seeing it small on my phone it really put him in mind, tho.

Plus, Lucas going to see an Indians Jones movie he had no hand in.

Anyone watch Sisu?

Hell yeah. You'd love it, Ruddo

Tom Cruise is the best.

This is cool, had never seen it before

That was great

I don't know, I doubt Jack's doing the Barbenheimer double feature.

I like that he's advocating for summer movies in the physical theater. I know streaming and covid changed things, but it's great to be back sitting in the theater.

Took my kiddo to see Mario Brothers and theater was packed.

Mario Brothers was a terrible movie, btw.
