"Movie And A Show" Thread: Popcorn Optional

This looks great. Adam Driver is seriously underrated when it comes to comedy roles. He was amazing in Logan Lucky.

Geese_Pants · April 2, 2019, 2:52pm

Yeah…Adam was hilarious in that undercover boss skit on SNL.

I’ve been wanting to check out Lucky Logan since it’s part of the Amazon Prime movie list.

It’s so good. I loved it. Channing Tatum and Driver have awesome chemistry

I think that Daniel Craig steals the show in ‘Logan Lucky’, but it is definitely entertaining despite flawed execution.

P.S. ‘The Dead Don’t Die’ has a ridiculously good cast and if it is half as good as the trailer it will be a blast to watch in theaters.

I see that the Death Wish remake is part of Amazon Prime movies.

I’m tempted to watch it…but I don’t see how it can top the original with The Jeff.

I never said Alita was flawless.

So to anyone that’s seen them: Is the current planet of the apes trilogy any good? I always hear great things about it but I’ve never wanted to pull the trigger on buying them. However, right now the trilogy is on sale for $20 on iTunes and I’m considering it.

The main compliment I’ve heard and the best part of the trilogy is Ceasars progression as a character. That really intrigues me. Also having a lot of actors I enjoy scattered throughout the trilogy is another thing that draws me to wanting to get it.

The Apes trilogy is one of the best movie trilogies ever IMO. For $20 it’s a steal.

Stuart_Hayden · April 3, 2019, 1:37am

Why is this though? Without giving away spoilers, of course. Break it down for me.

KimuraLOX · April 3, 2019, 1:45am

Basically, it’s all about Andy Serkis’ portrayal and performance as Caesar. He makes you fall in love with the character and root for him. From his infancy in the 1st to the eventual war in the 3rd. His journey alone is worth the price of admission.

Stuart_Hayden · April 3, 2019, 2:11am

That’s pretty much the general consensus from every review I’ve read and every one I’ve asked.

And I love me some good world building through character development.

Stuart_Hayden · April 3, 2019, 2:34am

My god. iTunes has all 8 Saw films on sale in a bundle for $15.

It’s soooo tempting. I must resist

Optimus124 · April 3, 2019, 1:21pm

Alright, now I am interested

PussyStuffer · April 3, 2019, 4:21pm

that trailer was fire

Stuart_Hayden · April 3, 2019, 9:11pm

So I’m watching the new planet of the apes trilogy. So far I’m only maybe an hour into the first one but everything Caesar has done so far is justifiable.

maxx · April 3, 2019, 9:19pm

that joker trailer is oscar bait. lmfao

Stuart_Hayden · April 3, 2019, 10:03pm

Finished Dawn of the Planet of the apes. Jesus Christ the whole 3rd act was intense as fuck.

FUCKING CHILLS MAN!

Soooo good.

Stuart_Hayden · April 3, 2019, 10:33pm

Literally Koba when it comes to the human colony asking for a truce

Edit: Koba why???

Stuart_Hayden · April 3, 2019, 11:52pm

Again. Everything Caesar did in Dawn was justified. Koba broke the first rule Caesar made when he saved them and brought them together. Ape do not kill Ape. He killed several. Koba deserved to get got.

My one complaint about the sequel is the humans were mostly forgettable.

Also I thought Gary Oldmans character was going to be the villain and incite the war.

Nope.

Radiantsilvergun3 · April 4, 2019, 12:03am

I suspect he was cast specifically for this reason.
