The Maze Runner, with my kids. Decent movie. I haven't read any of the books and still followed the story and enjoyed it. Son and I binged The Defenders yesterday--the best Marvel on Netflix since the first Daredevil series. Really enjoyed it!

Status Update - high school fantasy romcom, likeable but completely ordinary
Black Panther - different kind of Marvel movie, much good, but a bit glum and self-important
The Shape Of Water - beautiful and elegiac romantic monster fantasy fable, sadly overflowing with Stupid

May I steal this phrase?
Also did rewatches of Mr. Mom, 9 to 5, and Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead
All 3 are entertaining. Love Michael Keaton in Mr. Mom. Lilly Tomlin and Dabney Coleman are perfect in 9 to 5. Babysitter is silly, mindless early 90’s comedy

"Brawl In Cell Block 99" with Vince Vaughn
Very cool, very brutal fight scenes. Not for the faint of heart....which begs the question, why was I laughing?...lol

I watched Radius.
Kept me interested but left me with the key question as to the entire point of the movie... Why?

Watched Suicide Squad last night and have Cell on my list.
I watched this recently also. Weird...it starts off with this serious indie vibe, and then goes full-on cartoon violence by the end. I like Vince Vaughn, so I enjoyed it.
That's a very good description of the movie sir. I was really enjoying Vince Vaughn's role all thru the movie and then it turned into some kind of Grindhouse level violent ending. I loved it...lol I like Vince Vaughn a lot also, he's always been an underrated actor imho.
...you'd love day to day life where I work then....
Finally got around to watching The Hobbit: The Battle Of The Five Armies. I saw The Hobbit and thought it was okay. Haven't seen the second installment (Smaug) but want to. I just really am not impressed with this particular tale. There's just something about how it's filmed- most of the characters just look fake to me- their hair looks fake, their make up is awful and all of the settings just feel too clean which makes them look like movie sets. Even the editing was bad. The LOTR films were spectacular in every way- make up, settings, etc.
Private Benjamin (1980)
I hadn't seen this one for many years but I saw it a lot in the 80s, it was always on cable
. It's still good after all these years. Goldie is awesome.

No sir, I safely watch it my from my television nowadays. You have to have eyes in the back of your head every minute where you work. Nothing can ever be taken for granted in a jail environment. The moment you do so, that’s when bad things happen. For people with nothing better to do with their time, there’s plenty of opportunity to watch for patterns, watch for routines, and exploit them for their own ill ends. That’s what you have to look out for every day you go to work, so stay safe brother. You’re a grandpa again and as much as you annoy us all here, we sure wouldn’t want it any other way.

With the greatest of pleasure!
The Secret Scriptures based on a book by Sebastian Barry. Movie was pretty good—kept my attention. Started Rooney Mara (whom I love) and the lovely Vanessa Redgrave. Also lovely was my new fake boyfriend, Theo James.
Anybody read the book?

I think the problem with this adaptation is that the source material is only slightly over 300 pages. It just doesn't call for three movies each over two hours long. There's a lot of padding in there.
Black Panther. What a great time at the movies this was. Probably Marvel's best effort since the Captain America trilogy and the first Iron Man. Beautiful aesthetics and a strong all-round performance by the cast. Director Ryan Coogler did a splendid job here.
...as a comics fan of many years, it's about time someone got around to celebrating a black superhero.....another genius creation of Jack Kirby and Stan Lee....
