April 3, 20177 yr Well I watched Pete's Dragon (2016). And I thought the plot was more believable than the original movie. But I did have a problem seeing the dam thing. Half the time it was barely lit (I guess it was night time). But now I had this problem with other movies as well. Then I watched Moana. I guess Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was good in this movie. And I wondered what was wrong with that chicken (did he have some sort of mental problem).
April 4, 20177 yr Ghost in the shell 2017 in theatres, was very good both as an adaption and as a film. Loved the oddly retro/90's styling too
April 7, 20177 yr Life. Story was okay, but most of the characters were boring. Could have used some more space shots. End scenes were the best part of the film.
April 9, 20177 yr Get Out. A brilliant satire by Jordan Peele (of Key and Peele fame) that is sometimes funny and more often than not scary. Definitely the best-made horror film I've seen in a while.

April 13, 20177 yr Life - an entertaining flick, although I had to suspend disbelief for some of the creative liberties taken with the science... Gone Girl - a well-crafted piece of storytelling with two great lead actors, and profound social commentary

Is Life as much of an Alien ripoff as it looked in the first trailer? Edited April 13, 20177 yr by PepperoniBricks

I guess it goes to show star power does not necessarily mean a great movie.

April 15, 20177 yr In the past month, I have watched: - Kong: Skull Island - Hunt for the Wilderpeople - Phantom Boy (a French animated film from 2015) - When Marnie Was There - Gravity - The BoxTrolls - Howl's Moving Castle - Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind - The Fast and the Furious - Ponyo - The Prestige - The Hunt for Red October I think When Marnie Was There is my favorite out of this bunch... although I also very much recommend Hunt for the Wilderpeople and The Prestige.

April 15, 20177 yr Re-watched Star Wars (the original trilogy) today and yesterday. It has been a while since I watch any of them. And for some reason I thought it might be good to watch them for the Easter weekend.
April 17, 20177 yr Frequency (the original film, not the recent CW series). A lot better than I anticipated! EDIT: Oh, and The LEGO Batman Movie, of course! Can't believe it took me this long! Edited April 17, 20177 yr by Master_Data

April 21, 20177 yr Rogue One. For the first time. (I'm really behind now, aren't I? Maybe I should post this in the procrastination thread...)
April 26, 20177 yr Thor II Not as good as I remember, although parts of it are brilliant. It makes me relieved that Natalie Portman won't be back; she's one of the movie's many weaknesses. It also makes me even more disappointed we never got any Lego sets for it--there are a ton of missed opportunities there. Maybe when I find time to start MOCing again I can try to fix that...
April 28, 20177 yr Animal Farm (1999). Great movie, though I do prefer the book. "All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others..."
