Re: movies
Thanks for your reviews tep much appreciated. I love "Village of the Damned" and agree it deserves it's classic status.

Re: movies
Rogue One was on tv this afternoon. Missed the first 45 mins, but, damn, I'm amazed how much more I like it with each viewing. I wasn't that high on it when I saw it in the theatre, but it punches all the right buttons (better than Last Jedi, which works similar terrain). I might even go as far as to say it ranks only behind Empire and New Hope.

Re: movies
It’s the best new one. It is removed enough from the Guiding Light soap opera shit that is so pukey about the canon garage.

Re: movies
I love 'em all—even the prequels—even when I know some are pretty shitty (i.e., prequels). I can stand aside and be critical, but in the end I love every fucking SW film because I've been sold on the concept for over 80% of my life.BostonBeaneater wrote: ↑08 Sep 2019, 7:06pmIt’s the best new one.

Re: movies
I understand entirely. I used to occasionally be a cunt to people when I found out they like Elton John, Midwestern pizza or Dane Cook. I keep my mouth shut now. If something makes someone happy then they should be happy.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑08 Sep 2019, 9:33pm

Re: movies
I'm now the same way. I've become internet friendly with some fellow listeners of Sirius XM Volume, and a lot of them have, shall we say, interesting taste in music. But I've been nice and not snobby about it! I don't know what's gotten into me.BostonBeaneater wrote: ↑09 Sep 2019, 11:23amI understand entirely.
