"American Pie 2" on IFC. Followed by the first one.

Laughing my butt off!

There was a rather unnoticed 2019 remake of 1976 Midway. Some big actor names are in it.
2 1/4 hrs of easy popcorn watching and was historically accurate to a degree.

It should have been twice as long to really tell the story right. Watched it twice for it to make sense.

Campy Hollywood scenes, unrealistic .cgi physics and perspective, ultra-bright colors, droll music which uses only french horn and tomtom drum, confusing and similar-looking actors, a script which covered too many events with too many characters, and a general lack of clarity were drawbacks but it was still a fun movie.

Mark Wahlberg in 'Spenser Confidential'....a good cop movie on Netflix.

^ thanks, Steve!

Watched the ending of "Vision Quest" tonight. I was channel surfing and it was on Fox Sports 1!

Such a great movie. A cult classic! I have the DVD.

I haven't kept up on this thread, but it seems there is some aspect of adding new up and coming films.

Just stumbled across this one. If you're like some of the members of Pelican OT, you'll talk trash and mention how cool and independent you are...but if you're the type of Pelican like ME, then this film will flip EVERY FREAKING SWITCH.

Zombies. Vegas overrun by Zombies, and they let it go...wall it off, let it burn. Then, someone wants the cash in a vault under the building in the city overrun by zombies, so they call in a rag-tag group of mercs to get it out. Guns, flames, zombies, Vegas, jokes, Dave Bautista, and a sub-species of zombies that are intelligent and social. Why would you NOT want to watch that movie on a Saturday afternoon?

^^^ WOW... That looks great!

I've seen enough zombie movies to last me another lifetime.
But of all of them...this one, I thought was done the best.

Vantage Point. POTUS is at a word summit in Spain. Shots are fired and a bomb goes off. All shown from the points of view of several people. So much is going on I had to watch it twice when it came out a few years ago . Really worth watching.

Yes! A zombie movie so good people who dislike zombie movies will like it.

Here’s hoping Hollywood doesn’t do a remake like they did with Old Boy and Ghost in the Shell!

Watched "Nomadland" last night (Best Oscar winner)
 
My wife and I watched it, and it was very, very......…. Well, ya know. Couldn't wait to see it. Shouda went to bed instead, or hid in the shed, or visited Fred.

Agreed...

"Grand Prix" on cable right now. Possibly the best racing movie ever made?
