Hello guys/gals

Tools    





New here but NOT new to movies. I love films more than you know. Not too much into artsie films but all in all, I can hang with the best. I will usually do a double feature when I go (I only pay for one, sorry).

I NEVER do streaming and I NEVER will, period!! I still RENT movies on DVD and I love it. I have 5 of them sitting here next to me now, due back Tuesday (lol). I will soon start my own thread rating movies I have seen lately, theater or on rental. I just saw The Mountain Between Us & the new Blade Runner!

I will usually go every other weekend or when I get free time. I live here in WISC (go Packers, currently losing to Dallas, BOO!).

Years ago I was on the FROG site (not sure if I can mention that?) but that has gone bye bye, oh well. I had thousands of posts for nothing I guess.

Thanks for reading, Jon

"What are they" >>The Bourne Legacy, The Wall (not Matt Damon), Alien Covenant, Public Enemies & Battle Los Angeles. The Wall is the only one not seen yet. I have maybe 500 DVDs. I will post some of my all time favorite films!

No Netflix, no streaming etc. Those are decent (not great) films. I have seen four of these a few years back at the theater. I'm a big theater person. All the employees know me (lol). Nothing quite like the theater feeling. Old school all the way.

Public Enemies = VERY GOOD!

Jon

(I assume your talking about the 1997 one by David Fincher)



(I assume your talking about the 1997 one by David Fincher) >> Sorry, no. I meant Sean Penn, Michael Douglas.

Jon



You can't win an argument just by being right!
That's the same one. Fincher was the director.
LOL that's what I thought and I got all confuzzled. I really like that movie.



"That's the same one. Fincher was the director" >> I was thinking about the year. I cant believe its been that long already.

Time blows by pretty fast (Packers have the lead BTW).

Jon



I posted something for my signature. Its not there. Does it take a few posts before it appears?
