I tend to agree. There is not really anything worth going to see right now.

Followed a kid in to work that was driving a mid to late 90s Grand Prix. I think he had taken the shocks off the way it was porpoising and bouncing, sometimes violently. There are a couple of places when we got to town that I am sure he bottomed the suspension on a dip that was minor for other cars. On the highway it never settled down and in town it would oscillate for several seconds after each bump. Except the one time he bottomed so hard it fully extended the rear suspension hard on the rebound.

Meh. Just think of the weight he was saving. His lap times will be incredible.

Since I got this Kodi/TVMC setup, think I am going to end up watching movies I wouldn't normally watch.

I don't know of any "great" movies that are out now or recently.
5 is probably a bit young...but, there's not a lot of gore.

Thinking about it, I believe they actually put a lot of effort into making friendly to younger children. There's no nudity, gratuitous sexuality and rather minimal obscenity.

The original had the gorier stuff off screen but there was the whole lawyer off the porcelain thrown part and the severed arm that I don't think he is ready for. Good to know this one is along the same lines. Sometimes you just go see a movie for some excitement and entertainment.

Midget porn? Thought we were discussing Jurassic World, not Jiztastic World!

If Barney isn't in it, it's probably not safe for children under 7. If he is, it's probably not safe for anyone over 7.

Watched some newer movies...

ex machina... meh, female robot nudidity and a poor ending.
Mad Max, Fury Road...okay if you like Mad Max road attack scenes. Lots of road rage gore. No pets, ie dogs or monkeys.
Chappie...okay, but glad I didn't spend any money to watch it. Robocop violence.

Tomorrow the local Porsche dealer is having a Lemans watch party at the showroom. Free food and drinks. I am sure there will be a few Porsches on display. It should be fun. It is from 10:00 to 5:00.
