Yeah, no suspension of disbelief in Tremors at all.

Heh.

I haven't seen it so I won't speak to how good it is, but would you give it the nod for Best Picture over the other nominees that year?

Other Nominees
127 Hours
True Grit
The Social Network

The Fighter
Winter's Bone
Inception
Black Swan
The Kids Are All Right

Toy Story 3


I liked these more. The King's Speech is the type of movie that wins oscars.

Two films as part of my cable networks free watchathon.

Hacksaw Ridge - Very good but a little hyped up
The Wall - Much better than I thought it would be.

Set in the 1400's it's about the Great Wall of China and the idea is that it was built to keep out a horde of lizard monsters. It is silly but the battle scenes and special effect are actually quite good.

With Matt Damon

That's because it was made as campy over the top silliness. Didn't even TRY to be realistic.

Sure, I can agree with that. I have never seen The Kings Speech, but I typically pick my favorite of the bunch then what I think will win as well.

And yet it was more believable than A Quiet Place which was trying to be serious. What does that tell ya?

That I can't take you seriously?
I don't have a dog in this fight, I haven't seen Tremors, but out of curiosity, have you seen A Quiet Place?

I just watched one of my all time favorites from the 80s "The Lost Boys." That movie never gets old for me. I was 14 back when this film was made in '87. Back then my parents really didn't monitor the shit my brother and I watched on TV. We had the big ugly dish that we could watch anything and didn't get charged like people do today. Anyway, glad Netflix has it on again. Love the soundtrack as well.

I watched a movie yesterday called the Experiment with Adrian Brody and Forest Whitaker, I like both of these guys and the movie was decent for a while but the ending was pretty dumb I thought...

Just watched Den of Thieves. It wasn't bad but there was a lot of stuff that could've been cut out (it didn't need a 2+ hour run time) and the ending I thought was predictable early on in the movie. 2.5 out of 5 stars

Jane Fonda
Lee Marvin (won an Oscar for his roles)

Stubby Kaye and Nat King Cole do the wandering minstrel thing for the theme song.

Silly movie but full of comfort....

Watched American Made last night. I thought it was ok, it moved along very fast.
