Watching now

Sudden Death

[Murf the Surf]

I hope this isn't a disappointment although I've seen some comments that leads me to believe it will be. I'll save it for when it gets picked up by Netflix or some other streamer. I want to like this, maybe because I remember seeing Raiders of the lost Ark when I was 20 years old and it was such a great film.

I had a glimpse at the trailer, I'm hopeful that it'll be good.

Can’t think of anyone more fit to play Barbie than Margot Robbie.

More of a cute movie to see with the wife and grandkids, although does look like it should be fun.

And Ryan Gosling is so cute in his pink outfit and bleached blond hair.

Ryan's in it? When is the premiere? Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! (Kramer's high pitched scream)

Watched John Wick 4 and Sicario 2 (seen Sic 2 before).

Excited for this one. I enjoyed Lanthimos’ previous works (The Lobster, The Favourite) and this one looks to have a cool surrealistic look to it.

I watched Young Guns and Young Guns 2 this week. I enjoyed watching those old 'Billy the Kid' movies again. Seen them many times. I wish Emilio didn't quit acting. Always liked him.

And today I started watching The Quick and the Dead. Another one I've seen several times but will like watching it again. A fun western by Sam Raimi.

Why did he quit? Ya, those were a couple of good westerns and that 3rd movie wasn't so bad either (unsettling scene where Lance Henriksen's character was stripped when he got gunned down).

A quick look and I found this on the web:

What ever happened to Emilio Estevez?

"These days, his work is confined to behind the lens of the camera as he develops his writing and directorial chops. Unlike his brother Charlie, who made a huge career comeback with his role on the TV show Two and a Half Men, Emilio chose to stay away from television and has continued to write and direct."

Watched Wick 4 last night at home of course.
I may be in the minority, but this franchise ran it's course with 2.
I mean so now he's wearing a "bullet proof suit that also protects him from being hit by or knocked into various vehicles"? Along with falling from 3 stories, and still being able to conduct martial arts?
I mean it's gotten Fantasy level instead of Action level.
And now Chapter 5 is already greenlit. So is he supposed to rise from the dead too?

I'm with you... How many times does it take to go up a flight of stairs and trying to meet a deadline? Beyond the point of ridiculous...

Don't even get me started on the stairs scene.

This is what they're saying about John Wick 4.
