Again with the Hawaii...Caught Avengers: Endgame in Hawai'i and wow! So many feels!
That final battle - hoh-lee-chit!! It was so great to see everyone there. And it was the culmination of the twist regarding Thanos. We knew that his snap would be reversed but I went in blind and did not expect him to show up with 2014 Gamora and Nebula. That was great! I also didn't know about Natasha and Tony. I mean, I knew someone(s) would die but had no idea who. Thought it was Bruce for a minute but then Tony.... bwah!!
Really great end to 20 years of MCU story building. Should be interesting to see the next phase...
Well, it was night and raining so a movie was about all we could do. Didn't see any grass skirts, just ti leaf ones.Again with the Hawaii...
Why would you watch a 3 hour movie in Hawaii???
So many grass skirts, so little time to purchase Roundup...
The only thing I didn't really like about the movie was Professor Hulk. Just love when he smashes.
After about four days in Hawaii you've probably seen everything worth seeing. A week was too much for me.Again with the Hawaii...

I just finished watching the most confusing film I’ve been seen in my life. It’s been so long since a movie has genuinely messed with my head.
In the Mouth of Madness (1994): I had been wanting to watch it for months because I’ve heard people say it’s Carpenter’s best film ever, but now I wish I didn’t watch it at all. The practical effects were incredible, as to be expected from Carpenter, but the plot of this movie actually ****ed me up. It’s the most genuinely scary film I’ve seen in my life. I’d give it a 7.5/10 but would not recommend watching it if you don’t want to stay up all night having paranoid thoughts. The end of this movie reminds me of The Stand, but there are Children of the Corn elements to it too. There are subtle refrences to King in this film, the main (maine)
Antagonist’s name is a parody of Stephen King’s name. But yeah, I wish I didn’t buy this movie from the local video rental store because it actually fricked with my head.

Definitely the most confusing film Ive ever seen
The Thing is my favorites Carpenter films and it’s definitely in my top 5 films of all time (probably around the #3 spot. In the Mouth of Madness was well made it’s just that the plot kinda drove me a little bit bonkers and it was probably a poor choice to watch with all my recent mental health related melodramaDo you read Sutter Cane?
It is a good movie. I wouldn't say it's Carpenter's best film. That will always be The Thing. It's up there though. Definitely his best film of the 90's.
Similarly freaky films are Event Horizon and Jacob's Ladder
Event Horizon is essentially a Lovecraft story set in outer space.
Jacob's Ladder is a whole other level of freaky.

I finally watched Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. They said Goldblum was in it and I got my hopes up thinking he'd play a lead role and outshine Pratt with ease. But did I get that? Nooooo. Instead I got another film where Pratt runs around acting like the alpha male, which doesn't work. Goldblum, Neil, and Dern made the first three JP films shine, great chemistry and great acting but Pratt and Howard, they come off like high school drama kids by comparison. They also went backwards with the dino's. The JP films touched in reality by saying dino's may have had more in common with birds and that many probably had feathers, which is based on actual scientific research. The JW films decided to do away with all of that because they said dino's with feathers just weren't scary, they even went as far as to invent new more scary dinosaurs which wasn't necessary. Anywho, to wrap this up, the star of the JW films in my opinion is Blue.
Of course Sutter Cane is supposed to be Lovecraft, but Stephen King is directly named dropped in the movie when they compare Cane’s sales to King. The syllables in both names are also very similarI love Carpenter, but would hesitate to call it his best film. It's a solid effort, but it doesn't quite rank with his best, in my opinion. But I think also not everyone would agree with my favourites, because I rank Prince of Darkness very highly, and I could see why that's not everyone's favourite either. It's all personal in the end.
I believe Carpenter said Sutter Cane is NOT meant to be Stephen King. Certainly similarly successful, but not a direct reference. I suppose he's much more Lovecraft, if Lovecraft had actually become as successful as King if he had lived now.
I actually still don't have a good blu-ray of this film, as I believe there isn't one in my region, which has extras.
Exactly, Lovecraft is a guy I read every now and again, my favorite story is The Color Out of Space, but I also like some of his more popular works like the ever popular Call of Cthulu and The Dunwitch Horror. He is The Godfather of cosmic horror, I love how he describes his monstrosities by not even really describing them at all, he more or so describes what the character interprets it as.Yeah, it's basically a Lovecraft story. Lovecraft is freaky that way.
