"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf -

I'm going to be one of those guys who pays to see that in the theatre. Hopefully Scorsese doesn't gum up all the gangster film tropes he pioneered and win another Best Picture.

Yeah, I'm very cautiously optimistic about this one. Three actors in the twilight of their careers, doing the one type of character that made them famous? This could make the rat on the balcony scene look subtle in comparison!

I’m excited for the Irishman. I used to work with a guy who had been the president of a teamster local on the East Coast, post-Hoffa Sr. He had interesting things to say.
If this movie is based on the book, “I heard you Paint Houses,” that was the his guess on what was most accurate.Comment

It is about elite liberals hunting “deplorables” for sport so some of you here might like it:

A controversial movie about privileged vacationers hunting “deplorables” for sport is ruffling feathers more than a month before its scheduled release and after tragic mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio.
“The Hunt” is billed as a satire that follows wealthy thrill-seekers taking a private jet to a five-star resort where they embark on a “deeply rewarding” expedition that involves hunting down and killing designated humans. The Hollywood Reporter reported on Tuesday that “Universal is re-evaluating its strategy for the certain-to-be-controversial satire" following the shootings after ESPN reportedly pulled a trailer for the film that had been previously cleared to air on the sports network.
“The violent, R-rated film from producer Jason Blum's Blumhouse follows a dozen MAGA types who wake up in a clearing and realize they are being stalked for sport by elite liberals,” THR’s Kim Masters wrote. “It features guns blazing along with other ultra-violent killings as the elites pick off their prey.”

So the cat is out of the bag--the movie appears to meet everyone's expectations (currently at 19% on Rotten Tomatoes, although those who loved the musical seem pleased by the movie). If you want a few quick, cheap laughs, read the summary statements from RT's Top Critics here.Originally posted by PaloAltoCougar View PostBecause we don't have a "I Don't Wanna See That!" thread, I'll post this here. Before seeing the trailer, I would have thought I'd be willing to go if I were paid $50 and the popcorn were guaranteed to be good. But after seeing this, my price probably tripled. Great cast and production staff, big budget...clearly a case where the whole is much less than the sum of its parts.
Apologies to those who loved Cats, but re-seeing a bunch of people in fur slinking around like cats for two hours would be hellish for me. I felt that way during the Broadway production and this looks even worse. My marriage may be in for a stern test.

If there is anything that will pull me out of quarantine, it is the movie Tenet. What's not to like? The trippy scifi plot a la Inception, the international scenes from seven different countries, the tortuous logic of time travel, written and directed by Christopher Nolan, actress Elizabeth Debicky, and starring John David Washington-- the son of Denzel that I absolutely love in the HBO series Ballers.
The only disappointment is Kenneth Branagh as Russian mafiosi, who looks like he stepped out of the frames of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit right into this movie, with no change of any kind to his acting style.
Rumors abound that the movie moves forward through time, and then moves backwards through time. And the name hints at this, with Tenet spelled the same forward as backward.
For Nolan fanboys, google this detailed look at the Tenet trailer.

I am in as well, but I would say it looks confusing. But Nolan has earned the benefit of the doubt at this point.Originally posted by Flystripper View PostAin't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

I know many of you are tired of the superhero genre, but I'm a Batman guy and this made me very excited.
