Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers is under a B

Long Shot was fun.

I was looking forward to seeing that, and I did the other night. It has its funny moments. Seth Rogan is still Seth Rogan, though I can notice his acting is maturing a little. Charlize is.... awesome. Andy Serkis is a chameleon.

Overall, I thought it was good, but not great.

Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers is under a B

Fair point.

The Paul Rudd Rule shall be amended: Paul Rudd has not made anything less than a B- since Halloween: The Curse Of Michael Myers.

Even the lesser movies with Rudd in them, the ones that hit the B- mark, Rudd is often charming and good and the best part of them.

The Catcher Who Was A Spy is borderline C.

Saw Knives Out today. Good old fashioned whodunit. It was just refreshing to see a movie that isn’t a reboot, remake, sequel or adaptation from something. The fact that this was done by the same goofball that f'ed up The Last Jedi makes me question if he really f'ed it up or if people behind the scenes were forcing him to turn it into garbage.

New Top Gun 2 trailer. Call me a fanboy, but I'm pumped.

That looks like the same movie, but with Cruise as a rebel instructor and a younger generation of pilots.

This isn’t related to Pacino even though he’s in it briefly, but it occurred to me I think about “Once upon a time in Hollywood” almost every day since I’ve seen it. Mostly just wanting to see it again. Blu-ray comes out next week. Think that might be my favorite movie since Moonlight or Fury Road. Possibly more than either of those.

I would like Tarantino to get help with the story/screenplay. He can have something great going like Hollywood was, and then he decides to end it making it same as all his flicks.

But yeah, I liked Hollywood a lot , -

even with the "oh here it goes all Tarantino ending. Also, what was the sequence with a flashback Pitt up on roof about. ? I thought it would be him and Sharon Tate spying each other, but seemed it was jhst gratuitous pitt shirtless.

anyways, reimagining and revisiting iconic Hollywood was great. Lighting up all that neon - beautiful.

Also saw it this past weekend and really enjoyed it.

Counterpoint: TLJ is at least top 4 Star Wars, even with Finn's storyline being mediocre
