My son was trying to tell me it was a Bell X1 but I said wait and see, because it will go past the atmosphere and that means X15.

It was the X-15. I think the Bell X1 had sort of a roundish body vs the x-15. :)

I knew he was wrong.

The Bell X1 was an airplane powered by a rocket flown by Yeager breaking the sound barrier. Never left the atmosphere.

The North American X15 went to space but no orbiting.

Both got dropped from a plane to start though.

Saw "Roma". Couldn't get what it was about. Beautifully shot, but it didn't have an interesting story. The unremarkable life of an unremarkable maid.

I had a retro weekend.

By the time I got to Woodstock Saturday afternoon it was 3PM, perfect for Happy Hour.

Alvin Lee!! Joe Cocker!! Janis Joplin!!

Love that BluRay..


Then Sunday I went hunting on Netflix for Gimme Shelter. Stones at Altamont Racetrack body guarded by Sinny Barger and the Hell's Angels...

Tina Turner gives a mic head... Some spectators die.

I'd seen it only once previously.

Unfortunately I am not going to break these down yet, but.....

Overlord - 7/10. (watched last week)
Bohemian Rhapsody - 7/10 (watched last week)

Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse - just finished watching... straight up amazing. I was cautious going in, spider pig and the whole concept seemed really weird. MAN, that was an incredible cinematic experience. As of right now... 9/10 there were a few story holes I noticed, nothing too bad. After seeing this... if THIS was nominated for Best Picture, I wouldn't mind... hell, it probably would've gotten my vote (granted I have only seen Black Panther and Bohemian Rhapsody from the list of nominees). Black Panther on the other hand, was good, but nothing special in my opinion. This was special and original and visually astonishing.

Haven't sat down to watch it yet, but from the trailers and the clips I have seem, it does look like a beautiful movie.

Debating about getting a movie

I'm home from a hockey game with a cold so I need a laugh and maybe a little action

Entertaining. I like Submarine movies in general.

The Circle

The Emma Watson 1984-ish flick, not the Julie Benz low-budget sci-fi flick.

What was the point of this movie? I went in with low expectations because of the bad reviews, and I think I was still disappointed. So Big Brother is fine and dandy, but only if I control it? Only if I decide who “goes transparent”?

Don’t waste your time. 3/10

It's a beautiful movie … Gorgeous shots and cinematography.

Nothing happens, but it's a beautiful nothing.

The Hitmans Bodyguard

My new all time favorite movie

That is a funny movie. The sequel is in preproduction. The whole cast is back....The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard.

Just started a thread panning Hunter/Killer. I'd delete it but can't figure out how. Anyway, what a rip-off of "Hunt for Red October." The comparisons are startling. Several scenes were lifted almost word-for-word.

Meh. I was expecting artsy, I guess, but I wasn’t expecting “Pushing Daisys”. I also wasn’t expecting that opening scene. An opening scene of a chick “going to town” was a bit shocking.

6.5/10

Fighting with my family.

Don't think about who produced it or what it is about.

Highly recommended. 9/10
