Not worth a thread: Silver Screen Edition (with downloadable supplement)

Will I pay $37 to see this garbage in the theater? You're god damned right I will.

Why $37?

[RottingCorpse]

I’m sure that’s how much going to the movies will cost come August. Hyperbole joke.

Hard Drive Clearances:

The Foreigner: Not enough jackie Chan is the primary problem in Jackie Chan's take on Taken. And...that's a significant problem. The ridiculous political backstory of a renewed IRA blowing people up is eye-rolling at best.

Nacho's Rating: 

Hurricane Heist: This is so bad it's....really bad. Avoid at all costs.

Nacho's Rating: 

Day of the Dead: Bloodline

This is like a fan film made by 8 year olds. Awful.

Nacho's Rating: Ugh. Fuck everything. I wasted my afternoon.

Too bad you have to go back to work tomorrow. Oh wait...

[RottingCorpse]

This looks really good.

That trailer felt like an eternity, though... Which is sort of a turn off.

So...I watched the Tomb Raider remake. And...I really liked it! It holds onto video game roots, but actually tells a story instead of making her a super hero. It's an origin story, and it's fun.

It's even fun when they get to a teeny tiny Japanese island where Walton Goggins claims that he and his army of mercenaries have spent 7 years trying to find the entrance to a tomb that was actually clearly marked all along.

Oh, and it's stupid. Don't get me wrong.

Wow...I can get behind this! It almost made me want to watch the sequels again. A defense of the Matric Sequels:

Wow... Eighth Grade really suffered from old people not understanding what the movie was about. It was described to me as "a movie told entirely through Instagram posts." That's not true at all. It's actually a beautifully handled, introspective, and wholly engaging study of being 13 in modern America. And you don't need to be 13 to understand it or enjoy it, nor do you need to be born in the era of the internet and social media. The movie transcends all of that. It's a quiet, occasionally disturbing, and haunting portrait of a teenager.

High on my list. Is it streaming in non-jolly roger circles?

Not yet... It just dropped, so it's still in buy-me mode.

I've been balls deep in Tudor history this semester, so this is turning all my dials up to 11.

That's Tudor "history" the same way Iron Sky is World War II "history."

But, yes, it looks fun!

[monkey!]

We’d all be balls deep inside her.
