I don't know. I was just workin out the Big words on that one, I even googled for spellding and definitions.Wat err yu tacken bote?
The Secret Life of Pets. It was cute, if formulaic. I did like that so many different pets were represented, even ones I would never want (tarantulas?). Also watched Zootopia last week. I liked that one better. Really great plot with a genuinely surprising twist.
The Mummy. Not one I'll likely want to watch over and over, but not nearly as bad as I'd been led to believe. Cruise is in amazing shape for an older actor, but should probably reconsider any plans to go shirtless anymore--old man flat boobs. Russell Crowe did his usual bang up job. He was really creepy In his second role (being obscure for the benefit of anyone who hasn't seen the movie but plans to). Some unsettling CGI; I can get behind that.
I liked Snowball best in Secret Life of Pets!
Zootopia was good, too.

skimom2, one again you've outdone yourself. Funny, I've been reading some John Cheever, and just got hold of a DVD of "The Swimmer" (1968). In the film, Burt Lancaster at about 55 looked like he was chiseled out of granite. Please take a gander at his man-cans and rate them for me on a Tom Cruise scale from one to ten. I LOVE this Marvin Hamlish soundtrack. Listen to the opening theme. At about 2:50 it just goes Bam!!!

I really like Cheever and thought 'The Swimmer' was exceptionally well written.skimom2, one again you've outdone yourself.

This is the only shirt-less Mummy image of Cruise I can find.
Why is he in a white bag?
I'd put him in a bag and leave him in the middle of the street...........
