May hit that up tonight.

Have you seen the Ballad of Buster Scrugs or something close to that title? It's a few short stories. I thought it was original and was pretty entertaining.
I was not expecting how it started out with the singing cowboy. Once I acclimated to it being an oddball type of short stories I found it entertaining.
 
Watched Mowgli last night...was def solid. It's another big gold star for Andy Serkis's career and.the casting was great.

Disclaimer: I have never seen any version of The Jungle Book before.

It's just the phase Cinema is going through right now. It will pass. I find the hysteria over it pretty comical tbh.

If you want storytelling you need to watch TV. That's just the reality of it right now.

I have to agree with Fry on this one. Which makes that article half right. Movies are in the toilet but TV is in a golden era. You can do so much more with 6-10 hour long episodes than you can with a 90 minute movie.

Gotta factor in the average attention span from 30 years ago to now...
 
Except half of these lame ass retreads and reboots are over 2 hours long and trilogies.

They still suck. Lol.

Good point lol

Also means we are stuck with this crap for the foreseeable future. Thank god for streaming services.

I have not been to see a movie since St. Vincent or Fury. I saw both in a short period, cannot remember which was last.
