"By the way, what’s the track record on action movies with “gun” or “shoot” in the title?"
I doubt Shoot 'Em Up did well at the box, but I sure do love that kooky, chaotic movie.
Speaking of under-appreciated, Pierce Brosnan is in a great Western with Liam Neeson called Seraphim Falls. If you dig grizzly cowboy movies with touches of surrealism, I think you'd dig it.
Uncharted was one of those "things turned into a thing turned back into the original thing" that Hollywood does. It's a video game where players can feel like Indiana Jones that was then turned into a movie, which, you know, is Indiana Jones, so...
The best scene is obviously when Clive Owen cuts the woman's umbilical cord by shooting it, but not just because it's insane, but because her line right after is exactly what the audience is thinking: "What the fuck?!" Gawd, that movie shreds.
They didn't even try and ease into it! They just went from Paul Blart: Fartcop to Kevin James action star. It's like when your friend tries to give themself a cool nickname.
I always appreciate when a director tries to do a solid by putting some relatively unknown actor on equal billing as two guys (Brosnan, Jackson) who have been globally famous for decades. Like when a movie pulls the 'and introducing' for some actor who then doesn't have much of a career but the director thinks they are the next Jodie Foster.
- That commercial was truly some overlit digital photography away from a porn intro.
- He's definitely getting some kind of work done, but I think it's also that Tom Cruise looked basically the same age from the early 90s through the mid-2010s, and now that he's aging, the mind can't process it.
- Speaking of aging, did Denzel age 30 years in the last 5-10 years? The only thing I remember about The Little Things is how old he looked. I hope Spike's continuing a good late period run after Blackkklansman and Da 5 Bloods, because the stretch between Inside Man and BK is ROUGH.
- Sidebar: the idea that Apple is the best streaming service is baffling to me. Yes, their originals are great, but once you're past those, they have nothing else to watch! I require a mix of old and new, which is why Hulu and Max are the best. I still need to start The Studio and finish Severance (and The Morning Show, don't tell anyone I kind of love that one).
- Someone audibly said NOPE after the trailer for Weapons played before Thunderbolts. Got a good chuckle. That's gonna be a hit.
- The best Indiana Jones knockoff of the 21st century is National Treasure, and if you're not going to be that good, there's no point in trying.
If the 71 year old stunt-person wasn't Sazz Pataki and it wasn't a cross promotion with whoever is behind all those Murders in That Building then that seems like a miss.
The Ballerina poster does something that seems impossible, it makes Ana D Armas look fine, whatever.
Whoever is behind trying to make Chloe Fineman happen, should stop.
What's going on with Cruise's face? It's all them thetans, man.
Children shrieked with joy as Vince wrestled a pile of nieces and nephews among the hustle and bustle of a big Mancini gathering.
"Uh oh, it's the boy from below" he yelled over the din before farting hugely, to gales of juvenile laughter.
I'm going with 'Clam Tunnel'

Shoot Em Up rules, but I kinda don’t count it here because it was directly parodying the movies I’m talking about.

God, I loved Shoot 'Em Up. One of the best studio logo variants.

Getting some powerful Curbes Lurb vibes from that Boy from Below cast list
Ana de Armas makes my peepee feel funny.
Is Anna Kendrick a serial killer in that movie? She giving "I'm going to eat your eyeballs" vibes.
I'm sorry but I will never buy Kevin James as an action star.

Fartcop is amazing.
Dwayne Johnson looks like this guy from Danger Death Ray.

Kevin James filmed the sequel, “Point It At Yourself” alongside “Guns Up”. “Pull The Trigger”, the third in the series, is in preproduction.
I saw two frames of the "Phoenician Scheme" trailer and clocked it as a Wes Anderson movie. The man has a look.

Mel and Shia are both filed in my book as "Weirdos that make shit I like." So I'll check it out. What? It's a complex filling system.

I meant complimenting but I have new glasses so. See you at bingo.
