And now that last sentence reminds me of "Ashtray" from "Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice In the Hood".
Great movie. |

None of what you just said makes any sense whatsoever as a response to what I said.
Hopefully that’s not you paying for cheap doctors again because if it is I’ve got dollars to doughnuts your ass is so full of cancer it actually connects to your brain stem. You’re usually a lot smarter than this. Like that time you nearly burned your house down, that had real comic build up. |

at the olympic trials mark won in the most dominant win of his career. The Olympics he deliberately jobbed to deprive Dupont the win. In the film mark loses day 1 of the trials and overcomes to win in the 2nd and 3rd matches. In the Olympics he just loses. Pretty large departure and not nearly as interesting.

I wouldn’t even say Valkyrie is a “major part” of this movie. She’s there, sure. Her character has 0 going on. We don’t see how she’s getting on as King. She has no real love interest. She doesn’t grow. She’s literally just along for the ride.

See, that's the other side of the coin. If she (Valkyrie) is going to have to absolutely be in there, make it worth a damn. With Sif in the mix you get to explore questions like does Jane feel even more inadequate having to compete with a fucking goddess? What does Sif think of Thor feeling such attachment to a mortal? What did she think of Jane at all in the first place? Has her opinion of Jane changed now that she's able to wield the hammer? Does Thor feel pulled in two different directions? What was his relationship with Sif like before? There's a lot to do there but nope, we got to have bare ass humor and screaming goats.

Watching “The Black Phone” which was recommended to me via Slik.
I was already debating it because the reviews have been very good but it hadn’t become available to me yet. I’m twenty minutes in and it already has me sold. It is unusually well acted for a genre film and the set pieces are building it up as more of a psychological horror. The child snatching aspect is chillingly presented. This film could genuinely upset me but I feel like it is moving like a real film should. Whoever put this together made the effort for this to stand out. |

The Black Phone - 3.5/4
I was thoroughly impressed with the acting, the story and the decision to include some levity in the form of fairly brutal yet fantastic adolescent violence. I enjoyed it immensely. I was worried that the ending was going to take away some of the opportunity for the lead actor to “have his moment” but all fears were unfounded and oh boy was that ending satisfying. Before I watched it I knew it had four things going for it: Ethan Hawke Jeremy Davies James Ransone Blumhouse Never doubt the credentials. |

I rated it slightly higher for pure surprise at how suitable parts of it were for daytime viewing. This is a psychological horror if you are a grown up, there is no visual scare to be found besides the child snatching and occasional mild fright.

Red Army - 9/10
Really insightful documentary that uses Soviet hockey to illuminate the political structure of the time and to pull back the curtain on the types of men who are now leaders in the Russian government. |

Spiderhead- 6/10
This is a really good script betrayed by having an ending tacked on. And its a real shame. In the 1hr 40min run time if you cut the the 20 min that takes place after the climax youd have something here. It has a great premise, Miles Teller and Chris Hemsworth both give strong performances, the writting is clever and well foreshadowed and it explores both the human condition and society in interesting ways. It has really everything youd want from a good sci-fi story. Its forced ending really betrays the films tone in a way the can only hurt it. I cant tell if they wrote themselves into a corner or this ending was forced on them. I would give the 1st 1hr 20 min an 8 and the last 20min a 6. SPOILER: show Last edited by Destor; 07-22-2022 at 01:08 PM. Reason: changed the rating |

Thinking on this i just cant imagine the ending wasmt passed down on them from the studio. It flies in the face of the film. So out of place...
