We’ve got our tickets for Star Wars on Sunday! I will just have to avoid the internet for a couple days so I won’t get spoiled. I am pumped. All of the prequels and sequels have been a blast for me. But I’m a super fan. If there’s ships, droids, blasters, aliens, and lightsabers, with cheesy dialogue and a rousing musical score, I’m ALL IN.

I didn’t know that either but I’ve been informed that it’s Ford versus Ferrari for you in Canada?

Exactly. I'm guessing it was released as "Ford Vs. Ferrari" in the states, as well. The only other time I remember there being two working titles for a film was "Edge of Tomorrow," also known as "Live. Die. Repeat." Something I'll keep an eye out for in the future. And you're right, Le Mans 66 is a great watch.

It was. Been meaning to see it, but it's probably that I won't until it's available for streaming.

Finally got around to watching Alita Battle Angel last night and found it enjoyable. I went into it not knowing the source material and was pleasantly surprised. I didn't even know Robert Rodriguez directed it either until after the film. It's good to see more Anime/Manga film adaptations being represented in Hollywood too. Can't wait for the live action Gundam movie to hit the big screen

Watched Once Upon A Time in Hollywood last week and wasn't sure what to think. I'm usually a big fan of Tarantino's films but this one felt average. Maybe i'll warm up to it with repeated viewings

I liked that Tarantino tried capturing the essence of the 60's, much like he did with Jackie Brown and the 70's. I can take or leave Brad Pitt depending on the roles he plays but enjoyed the rawness of DiCaprio's performance more. I'm ambivalent about the Bruce Lee scene. I know some viewers took issue with how Tarantino portrayed Bruce Lee but I chock it up to Tarantino being Tarantino and taking creative license with his image. I thought the guy who played Bruce Lee actually did a great job with his speech and mannerisms.

In typically meta fashion Tarantino pays tribute to the working men of Hollywood, by casting one of it’s biggest stars as a simple stuntman, so simultaneously worshipping the idea of the star. I think Tarantino sees both Pitt and DiCaprio as two of the last true Hollywood icons. I got the impression the whole movie was a love letter to Brad Pitt. The amount of focus on his jawline, butt etc is insane and that scene where he fixes the antenna on the roof is borderline soft porn.
These things are all present in that Bruce Lee scene. I loved it and don’t see it as a sleight to Lee at all. The whole thing is a fairystory anyway, as the ending proves.

We enjoyed watching The Two Popes, Jonathan Pryce and Anthony Hopkins both brilliant. Good seeing two older actors (Hopkins in his 80s now) playing such great roles.

We watched The Two Popes the other night as well. Great movie.

I saw Once Upon A Time in Hollywood on the plane, and I liked it.

Jackie Chan in his prime. One of the best fight scenes on film. Benny The Jet is epic
