"Yankee Doodle Dandy" is running on TCM on July 4.

Everyone should see this movie.

Terminator Genisys.

It isn't that bad. I mean, it's probably the worst of all the movies, will probably kill any immediate future of the franchise (which you can take this as good or bad depending on your view), and the movie isn't good, but it's not as bad as people make it out to be. It has all the pieces there to have been great, they just go together in a weird order and plot. There are also too many pieces, and the time travel rule book is essentially thrown out the window - causing what was cool time travel to become weird time travel.

I think of all the major time travel related movie series, the Terminator franchise makes the least sense. Luckily, it's fun to see robots in explosions, causing explosions, and chasing attractive people.

One of my favorite war movies was on last night on the GRIT channel, The Enemy Below.
An American destroyer stalks a German U-boat starring Robert Mitchum and Curt Jurgens.
I also have the book.

Welcome to GRB.

TCM ran "Run Silent, Run Deep" a while back.

Thanks, I've had that one on tape for many years and know all the scenes by heart.
They also showed Hell Is For Heroes last night, another favorite of mine.

I saw a Grantland article about the casting of Aunt Mae. Did not click. Are they really going to kill Uncle Ben again? Really?
