Topic: Movie thread.

My brother and I just finished Marvel's Wonder Man show. It was pretty good — I was pleasantly surprised by the return of Trevor Slattery: his character was divisive when he showed up in IM3 (though I liked him then), and he is even better here! Simon Williams was really likable, too: his struggles were felt, and he was funny. Cleary was a good background character/antagonist, and janelle was freakin' HILARIOUS. 8/10

After watching the first two movies of the LOTR trilogy last week, my family went to see the Return of the King rerelease at the local movie theater. It was delayed to this weekend instead of last weekend because of that snowstorm. This was my second time watching the entire trilogy, the first time was back in 2024. It is still peak, each movie is an absolute 10/10.

Super late, but saw DODGEBALL (2004) yesterday. I liked it very much! Not hilarious, but kept me engaged throughout and I finally understand so many pop culture lines that I never knew the origin of. The early-mid 2000's was such a boom period for these great mid-budget comedy films. You don't quite see so often these days, not to the cinema anyway. Shame.

"It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see how it works out for them!"

I added Zoolander to my rental list based on how much I enjoyed this one, since it seems to have a similar cast and vibe.

finished the last few minutes of how to train your dragon 2 on peacock.

not really watching mainly but having it on for background noise. Ghoulies, Ghoulies II and Troll marathons on one of the Prime Video live channels

Decided to watch Barbie with the wife and I am shocked how this movie got such high score anywhere. It is so idiotic ... it tried to be deep but failed miserably. What a huge pile of s**t.

Looks like I don't have any upcoming movies I want to watch from January until March 2026.
I will watch Super Mario Galaxy movie on 1 April 2026.
Let's see until how many times I watch Super Mario Galaxy movie.
I have watched WICKED FOR GOOD for 16 times at my local cinema XXI.

Well, I watched Miss Congeniality from YouTube watch reaction and it was really hilarious thrilling movie.
I was surprised with some coarse language appeared despite after I checked from their Blu Ray release, the movie was rated PEGI 12.
So, the story was about Grace (Sandra Bullock) as FBI agent turned into Miss Pageant in disguise to investigate the threat in pageant show.
Watching the situation at pageant show turned wild during the peril situation which the criminal have planted a bomb on the winner crown and Grace tried to save Cheryl to not wear the crown, it was really crazy and shocking.
It was really good surprise in police theme movie.
I usually watched family friendly movies but sometimes I still able to watch a little bit higher age rating movies as long they are for rated Teen such as Charlie's Angel 2000, VIP (Pamela Anderson), NYPD, Martial Law (Sammo Hung).
I have ever watched more mature series during early 2000's like CSI New York and CSI Miami, watched the police job in duty to investigate the criminal case and that was my theme during my High School age.
But I don't watch CSI anymore as I grew older in my age 40's.

watching Species I and II on Tubi today/tonight.

that and for either my living room or in my bedroom, the Cult Classic channel on plutotv since Beastmaster and other movies are on today

Trying to phase out my monster/kaiju DVDs & getting the Blu-ray versions. I'm getting Son of Kong (1933), Gappa the Triphibian Monster, Yonggary, & Reptilicus. The latter two from Vinegar Syndrome. I just hope the discs are in great shape...Plus... a few more of toho's 4K Remasters on regular Blu-ray. So I got alot of what I wanna buy on my list later in the future.

Saw Send Help the other night. It was, okay? Kind of tonally inconsistent. It has the signature Sam Raimi campy goofiness and splatter gore, combined with more serious character moments, and I don't think it entirely gelled. The two leads were both great though, and the aforementioned campy moments were very fun.

While I don't think the movie entirely worked, I do appreciate it presented us with two very flawed characters, and kind of switches up who you're rooting for throughout the film.

Also, I love Bruce Campbell had a small cameo in the form of a painting.

It's been awhile since I watched a movie, so watched Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie on Peacock tonight. Thought this would be something fun to watch, but I did not expect to cry. This movie ended up being about a toy who was neglected when its owner grew up, and ended up being about the reality of growing up, and being a kid at heart. Pleasantly surprised given this movie is based off a preschool Netflix series. Enjoyed this as much as other DreamWorks movies.

A Simple Plan (1998)

There's an important life lesson in this movie. If you ever find a crashed airplane containing 4 million in unmarked bills, don't try to split it with your friends. It won't end well for you.

Earlier today I "blind buy" bought the DVD of the new Fantastic Four movie.

been awhile since i even bought a new movie in like a year or so.

@seinfeldfanatic oh, lemme know what you think of it!

To celebrate Friday the Thirteenth I watched Friday the 13th Part: 3D
I've seen this movie a bunch of times but I always forget Jason just steals his iconic hockey mask from the shlubby prankster dude Shelly, and ends up wearing it in every subsequent movie.

Still waiting for Anaconda price to drop to rent it (paul rudd, jack black). It's still $20 to rent, that new release pricing.

Been on a Lord of the Rings kick, watching reaction videos of the trilogy over and over again. Idk why. Sometimes I'll follow up with The Hobbit too. And some Back to the Future trilogy here and there.

The Hobbit was the first book my mother read to me as a child cover to cover, followed by Lord of the Rings. Loved it ever since.

I just watched Unfrosted on Netflix w my family, it was hilarious!

@CaleBoi25 ive been watching it tonight. i really like it. kind of neat at the near end of the movie for Thing to have a rock beard. was that a fad or whatever going on in Marvel Comics the past couple of years or something?

@seinfeldfanatic I'm not sure if it's a reference to the comics, it was definitely a fun visual though!
