Having really liked "Baby Mama" and pretty much anything Tina Fey and Amy Poehler do together (such as host the Golden Globes awards), I thought I'd watch their latest movie, "Sisters".

OMG I hated every minute I watched of it. I kept watching thinking it might get better, but it didn't, it only got worse. It's so awful I quit the movie halfway through. I can't believe they'd do something so terrible. STAY AWAY from this turkey.

Watched Tank Girl on Amazon Prime, as it was one of the free movies I found there and I vaguely remembered it being some kind of kult feminist, anti-capitalist comic book conversion.

Unfortunately, I would rather have to agree with the rating given by Rotten Tomatoes...

While unconventional, Tank Girl isn't particularly clever or engaging...

So nothing I would particularly endorse...

 

[Andy_T]

But, I am really looking forward to seeing Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them...

 

[MadamSarcastra]

Watched four flicks in the last two nights.... repeats, all.

Ant-Man (2015) - IMDb
Deadpool (2016) - IMDb
The Cabin in the Woods (2012) - IMDb
The Big Chill (1983) - IMDb

OMG, just saw that Deadpool 2 is coming out in 2018!! Early March, I think.... EEEEEE!!!!

I watched "High Fidelity." It's my favorite John Cusack movie. The book is even better.

I saw "Doctor Strange" on Tuesday. I'd been looking forward to it and liked it, although Strange was a lot more serious in the comics. (I used to be more into DC comics, but I read Marvel sometimes. The DC universe has turned so dark since the '60s, but Marvel seems to have a sense of fun).

The special effects were good and there was a lot of humor.

I read an article that endorsed Dr Strange only for "die-hard Benedict Cumberbatch fans". (Which is fine, as I am just that )

... and hope I don't spot a rodent. I sprayed peppermint oil/clove stuff around again (also good for repelling mosquitoes, spiders, & centipedes)... hope it'll hold. LOL

I was in Walmart the other day and one of the products they have near the cash registers is called Rodent Sheriff,
which is some sort of mint spray designed to repel rodents. I have no idea how good it is, but it is out there.

Rodent Sheriff - Repel pests with just a spray, the natural way!

$11.99 at Ace Hardware; $23.00 at Walmart.

Has anyone watched Sully yet? My partner and I are thinking about renting it to watch. Wondering if it's worth it to go looking for.

 

[Tom L.]

^^^If you're willing to maybe wait a bit, you could borrow it from your library. Then again, you might not have to wait long- I found "Star Wars: TFA" on the shelf not too long after it was released on videodisc.

Watched "Mary Poppins" with my family yesterday as they had not yet seen that movie.

All I can say to that is ... "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious", of course

And no, I can't get the songs out of my head again today...

Also worth watching again, related to this, is, of course, "Saving Mr. Banks" with the wonderful Emma Thompson.

Hmm. I've only seen three of these films.

I haven't seen any of them. Well, I started to watch Deadpool, but I was so turned off by it that I quit about 20 minutes in.

I've only seen Deadpool... about three dozen times!! LMAO Haven't seen a flick in the theatre since 1998, but I am VERY much looking forward to renting Arrival! The Lobster & Green Room, too.

 

[Moll Flanders]

The Lobster has such a weird storyline. Green Room, Hunt for the Wilderpeople and Don't Breathe are all meant to be good.

 

[KLS52]

Someone on FB has just suggested I watch St. Vincent. So I checked out the trailer and turns out I already saw it. I love Bill Murray and Melissa McCartney. It was a cute movie.

 

[KLS52]

I'm going to see this in the movie theater, which I almost never do, on December 18. I hate sitting in theaters. But I'm going to humor some friends and go. It looks interesting to me and I love will smith.

It looks so good. I hope it doesn't disappoint.

I keep reading very good reviews of Sully. People are saying it is very gripping and not to watch it while you are on a plane!

I liked the Denzel Washington film about the pilot, Flight.Flight (2012 film) - Wikipedia

 

[Andy_T]

I also only have seen Deadpool. Had not even heard of many of these other movies on the list...
