After much strenuous battling with my "on demand" feature, I watched the Hobbit: the Battle of the Five Armies. I'm glad I got a refund on the rental before I watched. I liked it but it ended before it was over!!

The Purge: Election. Outstanding. As good or better than the first two installments. Not quite as much gore, but still top notch.
I just watched this the other night myself. And yes. Stupid girl didn't see how dangerous this guy was?
Watched Cape Fear (DeNiro version) again last night.
Am I the only one who wanted to smack the crap out of Juliette Lewis' character? Teenage girls are some of the mostidioticun-thinking creatures to walk the Earth (myself included at that age, my daughter too a couple years back).
I did. That smirk.
You too ma'am. Yes, there were some gratuitous kill scenes that cracked me up quite a bit during the movie.Hey, ghost19 !
Really? You liked it? I liked the first one very much, the second not so much. Hopefully I can go watch it soon.
Have a great weekend, sir.
I cheated and googled a scene from this movie.Blue Velvet -- another David Lynch. hmmm, it was okay.
I watched a little 30 minute doc on David Lynch and in it, the people discussing him said that DAvid is big into dream worlds. And I thought, yes, I can see that. But if every damn movie he does is a"dream world," it ceases to be anything special. You can't use something over and over and over again and think it's artistic.
Sure, he throws in some weird stuff that keeps you guessing. But, if he does this in every film, then they are all just the same thing. There's no creativity in that.
I remember the David Lynch was behind Twin Peaks! . .I did watch Captain America at the AMC tonight and found it worth noting that in Robert Downey Jr's first scene he is wearing a Mister Softee T-shirt. Yes, I laughed and it's a good thing the theatre was empty because I didn't have to censor my reactions at all.I cheated and googled a scene from this movie.Hopper's character is on the floor breathing ether? Demanding his wife spread her legs and crying MOMMY...MOMMY! and hitting her then saying DON'T LOOK AT ME! What the. . .?
Cape Fear (1963?)
One of the very few films where I like the remake better (maybe because I love DeNiro, maybe because Juliette Lewis was so horrifyingly real compared to the cookies-and-cream perfect daughter in the original).
If I had never seen the remake, I'd think this movie was great...
It's not his wife. It's a woman he's blackmailing and forcing her to do degrading sexual things to him. If you watch it you'll never see Hopper in the same light again.I cheated and googled a scene from this movie.Hopper's character is on the floor breathing ether?

Oh ok, I've set my DVR to record it tomorrow night.It's not his wife. It's a woman he's blackmailing and forcing her to do degrading sexual things to him. If you watch it you'll never see Hopper in the same light again.
Yeah, thank you for that. . . okay, Kyle Macglaughlin. . . I'll record it too. I just watched Jurassic World ( I thought it was cool when the book I was reading in the early nineties became a movie) and I don't know, is it me or do they not make them like they used to? I also watched Jaws for the bazillion and onthe time today. No complaints-zero.It also has a very young Laura Dern in it, along with Kyle MacLaughlin.
