What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

[Worf]

Joe And Max. A pretty good movie. Sad about how Joe ended up. I wonder if he would have done better if he could have moved to Germany?

Interesting question. Not a prophet but certainly a warrior without honor in his own land. I'm just surprised Max survived the war.

"The Hospital" (1971) with George C. Scott & Diana Rigg. The screenplay was written by Paddy Chayefsky. It's easy to relate to the burned out Dr. Bock if you've ever had to deal with a large bureacracy.

Watched "November Man" on the plane over here which was very enjoyable and "The Maze Runner" which was ****. Joys of being stuck on planes for 27 hours.

Hope they at least had plenty of complimentary booze.
Glad you made it safe.

Hitler tried to get Max killed, sent him on some really bad missions. After the war, many American servicemen wanted to kill him, since they thought he was a devout NAZI, not knowing about all his Jewish friends. They also didn't know, for his anti NAZI leanings, Hitler declared him a "non person," the biggest punishment next to the concentration camps. Dr. Hugo Eckener of Zeppelin fame was another one, for not letting the "house painter" use one of his hangers. Brave men!

I understand completely, and having done that, you have my deepest sympathies.
Saw 'Pee Wee's Big Adventure' last night, with the little ones in my house.

 

[Touchofevil]

Marathon Man and Guardians of the Galaxy; both entertaining.

 

[WesternHatWearer]

3:10 to Yuma

 

[Gregg Axley]

Pee Wee's Big Adventure is always time well spent.

The Thing From Another World

Hey, it takes place at the north pole, that's "Chrismas-y".

 

[Doctor Strange]

Interstellar - I didn't like it. It aspired to be 2001 but came off more like Mission To Mars.

We are having a very successful run of "Theory of Everything," a somewhat sanitized biopic on Stephen Hawking. Nits can be picked about it, but the scene of Hawking roaring around the living room in his wheelchair pretending to be a Dalek got the biggest laugh of anything we've shown this year. A real crowd pleaser.

"Snowpiercer" - Solid B - An interesting movie that surprised me at EVERY turn. Just when you thought it was heading in one predictable direction it would suddenly take a twist and not just for twists sake either. I did not read the Graphic Novels on which it was based but I think I will now. Welll done.

I can see it now: Exterminate! Exterminmate! Exterminate!

 

[Otter]

Live, Die, Repeat. Not normally a Tom Cruise fan but if you like mil SciFi this is not a bad film, Groundhog Day collides with Starship Troopers, but the special effects are very good.

I wonder if the speech-generating device he uses now would enhance or diminish the effect.

Probably sounds the same.

"Somewhat sanitized" is right. Don't want to play plot spoiler, but I got the feeling that the Legal Department was worried about a defamation suit in regard one specific aspect.

Yeah, pretty much. The seamy side to things is not gone into *at all.*
