I'm watching Fury right now. It's really good. Shia LaBeouf is excellent and Pit slips into his Aldo Raine only once or twice.

I really want Shia to find a way back to us so I can appreciate him unabashedly.

I just don't know how he could accomplish it, and it's a different tier, but Mel Gibson too.

Watched "This Is Where I Leave You" and "Boyhood" over the weekend.

Really enjoyed "This is Where I Leave You" which starred a bunch of people (Bateman, Fey, Fonda, and others) and was funny but dramatic at the same time.

Sorry robbotis, but I kinda thought "Boyhood" was a bore. Had some interesting moments and was and the premise itself was original but it mostly fell flat w/ me.

I did too. It was ok, but I would give in more of an

Was more of a story about how a seemly normal little kid can grow up to be a dirty annoying hipster.

History Channel had a program called "Reel to Real" .... they'd basically watch a movie that had some historical or period piece element and then bring in experts to chime in.

Attempting to help by looking at the private torrent site I'm on, I just got a bunch of porn documentaries with the same title.

I just watched "Manhattan Chase" on Youtube. It's a really bleak, weird kung-fu / intense family drama mashup (but not as much fun as that might sound) with B-movie legends Loren Avedon and Cynthia Rothrock. It's not very good, but it's managed to not be very good in a unique way, so it's worth a watch I think.

Saw two movies recently.

1) Brain Smasher - This is a low-budget film from the 90s "starring" Teri Hatcher and Andrew Dice Clay. A young Teri looks pretty nice, and Clay isn't as annoying as you might imagine. It has equally weak elements of comedy, action, drama & romance. It's not really worth watching, unless you like looking at a young Teri Hatcher. (no nudity, though)

2) Last Vegas - This was funnier than I anticipated. Morgan Freeman is always awesome in my book. Kevin Kline looks really old. Michael Douglas, while I'm not a huge fan, gets props for the amazing health recovery he's had. DeNiro isn't utilized as much as he could be. Mary Steenburgen does a really nice job in this movie, though I'm skeptical she actually sang her on-stage parts. I'd say it's worth watching, and that degree of recommendation increases as your age does.

Robert Redford night on TCM. I'm looking forward to "The Candidate".
