Movie You're Watching Tonight

I’ve seen bits of it. Hated it. Final comment since I don’t have a lot of time here.

Okay.

To be fair, I totally appreciate Stirchley’s attitude. No amount of money would make me watch Avatar 2, for example. I’d argue I still regret seeing the first one, except it was good to know where the Indy dry was going, Marvel and all.

Why? I ask this as Lawrence of Arabia is one of my favorite movies. It is everything (as the kids say).

Two movies this time. First the Henry Winkler version of A Christmas Carol.



After that I'm continuing the Austin Powers rewatch with the second one in the trilogy.

After playing the Midnight Suns game, I have an insatiable itch to rewatch the 1998 Blade movie. I'm not altogether proud of how I spend my free time.

Up (2009)



Continuing with @Yoda's favorites. This is probably one of the most obvious "everybody must see" movies I haven't seen yet. Oh well, I'm going to correct that today.

Hell yeah, this guy Svengoolies. Peter Lorre is always great.

It'd be so nice if movies could be true to their source. Things will change from one medium to the next. Some things just don't work in a book that work on a movie, and vice versa, and et al. And things need to be condensed to fit the time frame, so melding some characters and events is inevitable. But to stray so far it's its own thing is rarely, if ever, successful.

Rise of the Footsoldier: Origins (2021)

So, is there a "Rise of the Footsoldier" film that does NOT talk about the origins? If so, how does it show the "rise"? Sounds like the can announces its contents as "Chili Con Carne with Beef!"

Well this one is a prequel. The 3rd prequel
