Another Hardy masterpiece, Legend. and if not seen yet, The Gentlemen (Guy Richie 2019) Was thinking a little more about this. Spoiler There are a lot of things to like in the movie, but the fight scenes are some of the best I have ever seen in a boxing\mma movie. Yes, they got a lot of real MMA fighters and wrestlers to play those parts but Joel Edgerton REALLY held his own. I've seen the movie probably 2 dozen times now and this scene never gets old:

April 6Apr 6 A Minecraft Movie. Took my son & his friend, big fans of the game. I had a little knowledge of the game but not much. I thought it was awful & cringe, very over Jack Black's schtick. The cast was terrible, a lot of unnecessary stuff in the human world. But, the boys liked it, thought the Black/Momoa bromance was funny, and the actual Minecraft stuff was true to the game. I'm glad they liked it.

A Fistful of Dollars, Pale Rider, High Plains Drifter, Unforgiven are my favorites. If you liked Apocalypto, and like the Predator movies try Prey on Hulu, a Predator prequel. During COVID, I went through all the Tarantino movies again. Amazon Prime has a bunch of old martial arts movies if you're into that. Vikings tv show on Netflix is really good
April 6Apr 6 A little embarrassed to admit this but we went to see The Minecraft Movie. Both of my daughters told us over a week ago that we had to go see it this weekend. They’ve never been that excited to see a movie before. I think they actually liked it as much as they thought they would. I wouldn’t say I liked it, but I wouldn’t say I disliked either. It got a little long towards the end and I was happy when it was over, but Black and Mamoa were all in and it was pretty amusing to watch with some laugh out loud funny parts. The soundtrack, heavily ‘80’s music, was pretty good too. Speaking of the ‘80’s, they showed 3 previews before the movie, Karate Kid Legands, Superman and the new Jurassic World. All sequels or remakes of movies from that time period. Seems like we’re now at the point where Gen X is making movies for Gen X and I’m fine with it.

April 7Apr 7 The Minecraft director was Jared Hess, who also did Nacho Libre with Jack Black, and Napoleon Dynamite. Now it makes sense why the vibe of the humans and human world was the way it was. The focus should have been a teen boy (target audience) learning to build and create and use the tools of the game, rather than middle aged actors hamming up the screen and other characters that were pointless. The teen boy barely got to do anything, they were too busy focusing on Black and Mamoa.

Video games have more and more turned into multiple hour play throughs. TV shows get the time to dive into backstories, lore, character development etc and explain things to draw in a casual viewer that may not know everything about the game. Movies just have too much to condense into a 90 minute story without it being a watered down shallow version.
April 10Apr 10 Agreed. A few days after seeing Minecraft, my son realized it wasn't that great, he said there was a lot of the actual game they didn't include. There wasn't much actual building of items or using things.
April 10Apr 10 I loved Police Squad and the original Naked Gun movie. Not sure how I feel about this.

April 11Apr 11 Never thought I’d do this but I felt the need to do it. I just saw "Warfare” in IMAX, and it’s the best war movie I’ve ever seen…..and there’s not a close 2nd. I’m still in the parking lot (but only bc I’m giving out free handies after the show) bc It’s so f’ing good I felt the need to message all of you a-holes to go and see it immediately. @mikemack8 - it was the first movie where my phists were clenched the entire time, but not in someone’s butthole! Spoiler This movie and the way it was done makes Saving Ryan’s Privates look like Miss Rachel.
