    The movie explained why he is still a Captain and still around. There is also nothing that says the original took place in 1986 ... it just says "present day." The movie was also supposed to be released two years ago but delayed by Covid.
    She is the "admirals daughter" referenced in the original, and who knows what she did with her life over 30 years. She also owns the bar, so not just a bartender.

    Watched No Time To Die last night on Prime. Pretty good Bond flick. Lots of action, creepy villain, gadgets, chase scenes, pretty scenery, body count that strains the limits of excess, etc. Liked the intro song and visuals during the opening credits. Haunting sound of Billie Eilish was different. And the bookend simple, classic Satchmo song at the closing credits, so beautiful and ironic. I won't spoil the rest.

    My wife and daughter watched without me yesterday. Now I'll just have to watch it alone.
    I didn't even know it was streaming yet.

    Did see Bond with the wife and kid. Good movie, lots of Bond stuff.
    Just got back from Top Gun. Also a good movie. Lots of strings back to the original movie. Also, what I thought were a few original Star Wars references.

    Come to think if it,much of the dog fighting, bombing runs etc in star wars are inspired by "old style" techniques (as in WW2, Vietnam)

    Had a little movie night at my in-laws’ last night. Baz Lurhmann’s Elvis was surprisingly entertaining. It’s a struggle for me to get through a standard 90 minute movie, but, I have to say, this kept my attention for the entire 2 hrs and 40 minutes.

    we also watched Me Time with Marky Mark and Kevin Hart. They mostly beat up Vietnamese people and cracked gay jokes…
    Oh, wait, no, that’s what they’ve both done in the past…
    It was just a dumb, kinda fun movie. No laughs on my end. My wife thought a poo joke was hilarious though.o_O

    Watched Me Time the other night. You're spot on, a dumb fun movie. And yeah, the poo joke about the rabbit I found hilarious.

    Did not know the walburg was Marky mark. But then don't know who Marky mark is so there is that.

    Sounds like a pretty good way to beat the heat. Watch a few movies in air conditioned comfort.

    Covid cult. It's just a cold at this point.

    Oooof - sorry to hear that. As @Obsidian said, it's just a cold at this point - for most. But it still packs a punch for some. Hopefully she recovers quickly and completely.

    When your child comes in your room at 5:00 in the morning crying and saying she can't breathe... "It's just a cold" isn't the first thing that I responded with.

    Shudder/AMC+ have this really interesting series called Cursed Films that I started watching last night.

    I had no idea about the deaths on John Landis’ twilight zone movie. I’m sitting there watching the scene where it happened, thinking they’re going to cut-away, and then, “Oh, Sh!t!”

    I can’t believe no one went to jail for that.

    Over the weekend, I watched Top Gun Maverick and Cruella. The first of the two had excellent action scenes but it was a little over done. The second movie was awesome. Well done, cleverly written, comical, excellent character acting.

    The photography in Top Gun was the best part for me... And seeing the behind the scenes, and all that went into it. It's the first movie I've seen in a long time that was unique in that regard.

    We watched Prey last weekend....totally satisfying.

    Watched Jurassic World: Dominion this weekend....good, not great, but worth the viewing.

    We also finished bin watching The Boys and Jack Reacher on Amazon. Both excellent series.

    Oh yeah, The Boys and Reacher are both great. The Terminal List on Amazon is also excellent.

    I guess it had something to do with the $3 movie Saturday thing, but both Jaws & Start Trek II: The Wrath of Khan were in theaters this weekend.

    I saw Wrath Of Khan last night and Jaws 3D tonight. I had seen Khan on the big screen when it came out and many time since in other formats ... but it was great seeing it again on the big screen.

    I was too young to see Jaws in theaters when it came out, so enjoyed it on the big screen. I also saw the 3D showing. I normally dislike 3D movies as I usually find them to be gimmicky and distracting ... but Jaws was great in 3D because there were no gimmicks like thinks flying towards your face for no reason.

    Both really good.
