Today I watched "Crimson Peak". I was very pleased with it. Can't wait to watch "Spectre" this weekend :wiggle:

It's weird how divided opinions about Spectre have been so far. All across the board from people who think it absolutely sucks to "it's ok" to "it's the best of the Craig Bonds yet."

And I'm gonna have to wait to see Crimson Peak when it comes out on Blu-ray. I'm kind of bummed it didn't do very well in theaters as I love Del Toro's stuff.

Oh, and I saw Fantastic Four this past weekend - it is as bad as everyone made it out to be. IMO, it's a tie between FF and Terminator Genysis as which is the shittiest movie of 2015.

Watched Terminator: Genisys the other day.. meh... was OK but Daenerys doesn't quite cut it as Sarah Conner... Still, it was entertaining and way better than the last Terminator movie...

I love Guillermo del Toro's movies. I was not disappointed at all. I'm a big fan of Bond movies. I think the only movies I wasn't crazy about were the ones with Timothy Dalton. I had never been so bored in my life.

I love the second movie he did, License to kil. Carey Lovell is in that one :love:

To me, most of the light comedy bull shit movies Roger Moore did, is what you want to avoid. Ironically the last one he did when he was really old, A view to a kill, is cool as hell. By far his best.

Brosnan was cool in the first one he did but the remaining ones sucked due to horrible scripts and stuff

best Bond movie of all time is Thunderball

Some scenes of "License to Kill" were shot here, so I have a soft spot for that one. I just don't know why Timothy didn't work as James Bond. He had less lovers (I remember his movies came out during AIDS big breakout) and he wasn't as charismatic as others. My personal favorite would be "Goldfinger", "On her majesty's secret service" coming close in second place.
Pierce Brosnan's are so funny. I loved the raunchy humor. And yes, scripts could have been better, but I liked them nevertheless. Roger Moore was Bond when I was little, so he was one of my first crushes :lol: (after Harrison Ford).
I would have to say that "Quantum of Solace" is my least favorite Daniel Craig movie, even if one of my favorite Mexican actors (Joaquín Cosío) played one of the villains.
About who's the best Bond, I have to agree with my mom and say that it's Sean Connery, hands down.

Even though I wasn't blown away by 'Spectre', thought it was entertaining during action scenes. I have to say his love interest was too young for him. Even though she couldn't be his daughter, she could have been an older niece. I was actually more excited about the villains. Looking forward to the next James Bond.

I liked it as well.

I thought the kids were pretty funny.

And I could look at a gently aging Christina Applegate all day long.

I saw Peanuts this afternoon with my wife and 2 of my kids (4 and 2). They both loved it and my wife and I enjoyed it. The story was cool, we got into it. It holds up to all the old stuff.

Don't know why I bothered watching "Mockingjay Part 2". At least I didn't pay the whole ticket price :noclue: . Should have watched "Black Mass" instead.

It hasn't premiered here yet, definitely going to watch it after your review.

no i do like her. she is playing a depressed drug addict with mental issues. except for the drug part she comes off in real life as someone that may suffer from depression. she is also naked in it which gets another thumbs up from me.

Saw Creed today. :thumb: :box:

I really liked this movie and thought it lived up to the hype. Sylvester Stallone was very good in this as was the main guy, Michael B Jordan. There were some really touching scenes which caused a few tears.

Watched Ted2 last night. Considering how awful Seth MacFarlane's last flick "How The West Was Won" was, I had zero expectations that this would be any good. Surprisingly, it was fairly funny with a few lol moments and probably more uses of the word "fuck" than any movie I've ever seen. The key plot point seemed to be an almost blatant swipe from an old Star Trek Next Generation episode where Picard and Co had to prove Data is a sentient being and not "property." Better'n the first "Ted" flick which admittedly isn't a huge bar to rise above but well worth a viewing.

I thought Creed was good too (I've actually never sat through any of the Rocky movies).

I think I spent most of the movie just staring at michael b jordan's arms :love: :heart:

Saw the documentary "Jaco" last night. Nothing ground-breaking, but it was nice to see a cohesive biography of the greatest bass player to ever have lived. Check it out if you can.

I think that's true of all his movies. But I like them anyway, and I'm not sure why.
