Watched the Last Stop Larrimah. I consider it a waste of 2 hours. I cannot say in public in case I spoil the end. But the ending is the very reason I consider it a waste. lol.
Seen any good movies?
- Thread starter QSis
- Start date
I watched both of these last night.
It's strange how my reactions were very different from when I first saw them in my teens.
I preferred the one with Eve Plumb.
I'm going to snuggle down deep under the quilt later and watch this.
This was a fantastic movie!I'm going to snuggle down deep under the quilt later and watch this.
I watched the limited series (8 episodes) of The Fall of the House of Usher on Netflix. It really didn't follow the Edgar Allan Poe story closely, but it was WONDERFUL! Most of Poe's most famous short stories were represented in the series, which I got a huge kick out of, since I've been an avid Poe fan from childhood (my father read the stories to us, LOL!). The acting was excellent, too - Bruce Greenwood (who is all over the place on TV) played Usher, and Mary McConnell played his twin sister.

Tonight it's either going to be Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory - which I've seen a million times, or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with Johnny Depp, which I've never seen.

🌹 Still trying to get it right.
Pass on Depp. His version stinks. IMHOTonight it's either going to be Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory - which I've seen a million times, or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with Johnny Depp, which I've never seen.
The one original is much better. Gene Wilder is the best.

Watched "Los buenos modales" and thought it was alright. I mean it's rather a drama than a comedy, although introduced as a comedy. It definitely needs a better flow to the story, and a better ending.

Also watched The Kill Room. Again, it wasn't worth as I found it boring. Samuel L Jackson saved it a little bit but other than him everyone and everything else was disappointing.
Trains, Planes and Automobiles tonight!
I've seen it many times.
Never gets old lol

I'm probably going to turn in soon and find something on my PBS station, WBGU.
That channel always has something fabulous, doesn't matter what it is.
I watched National Lampoons Christmas Vacation ...again. Always good for a laugh.
Also been watching Boston Legal on Hulu. I missed the series when it originally aired in 2005 or so. Some funny cutting edge stuff. Denny Crane. LMBO
Boston Legal was brilliant! William Shatner is always great, as is James Spader.

I'm going to stream this later.

Watching "Race for Glory: Audi vs. Lancia" and I am sure that the film makers have got the idea from The Grand Tour episodes that discussed it several years ago. I still think the way it was presented in Grand Tour was much more interesting than what's in the film. I am not being biased to the Clarkson trio, but honestly in my fair evaluation I feel that the film is not even 10% as interesting as the Grand Tour episode.
I was going to watch the Golden Globes, but decided meh...
I've been binge watching old Seinfeld classics.

There are several movies with the title "The Outfit". I just watched this one and it was excellent! Might be one of the few that I watch again, to catch stuff I missed the first time around!

The Outfit
From the Academy Award-winning writer of The Imitation Game (Graham Moore) comes The Outfit, a gripping and masterful thriller in which an expert tailor (Academy Award winner Mark Rylance) must outwit a dangerous group of mobsters in order to survive a fateful night.

I watched this one the other day.
Self Reliance made in 2023. On Hulu
This was recommended to me by a friend. I guess we have different tastes. It was entertaining to a point but I cannot recommend this one to anyone. Concept is interesting. A guy is picked to play in a contest if he agrees to try it. He has to survive 30 days and he wins 1 million payoff. But there will be people trying to kill him. His job is to survive. And the killers cannot attack him as long as he is in the company of someone else. And it takes off from there. It has funny moments but it would only give two stars.

Watched "Paradise Lagoon" (1957). Enjoyed it.
Last night I watched Rain Man.
Tonight it won't be a movie, but I'm hard pressed between watching the State of the Union address or Call The Midwife.

Love "Call the Midwife"! Almost as much as "All Creatures Great and Small".

I watched Hidden FIgures. I've seen it before, and it was just as good the second time.
Tonight is Stata of the Union.
