Re: What are you watching?
It's not bad, but there are definitely better classic westerns out there.
Watch Hondo.

Need to revisit, but I remember it as one of the better classic ones. One of my top 10's.Jmac Attack wrote:High Noon. I've never watched it. I was in the mood for a good old Western. I've heard good things about this one.

Re: What are you watching?
Rio Bravo and The Searchers are my favorite pre-1960s westerns.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.

Re: What are you watching?
I love Emma Stone but it didn’t sound like her singing or like she could dance. Making it a very weird casting choice. Bit like Russel Crowe in ales Miserables.Tiggnutz wrote:Alot better than I expectedTiggnutz wrote:La La Land

She won an Oscar for that. I also love her she can make anything watchable.showa58taro wrote:I love Emma Stone but it didn’t sound like her singing or like she could dance.

Re: What are you watching?
The acting was good, and I did like the singing. It just didn’t feel like her. She’s got a fairly husky sexy voice and the singing was very dainty. Maybe it was her and she sings different to how she talks but it was incongruous for me. Still very watchable. Just weird casting in my eyes.Tiggnutz wrote:She won an Oscar for that.

Her and Ryan Gosling work well together very good chemistry.showa58taro wrote:The acting was good, and I did like the singing. It just didn’t feel like her.

Re: What are you watching?
Crazy, Stupid Love is one of my all time favorites mainly due to them and Steve Carrell. Doesn’t hurt to have one of the greatest twist scenes in a comedy of all time.Tiggnutz wrote:Her and Ryan Gosling work well together very good chemistry.showa58taro wrote:The acting was good, and I did like the singing.

Re: What are you watching?
Watching Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II (1987) for the second time.
Remember liking this one quite a bit more than the first one, and thus far, it's holding up.
Actress Beth Gondek, who's character I'm sure is about to die, had a pretty damn strong scene. Shame she's basically not done anything else.

Re: What are you watching?
I remember really liking it when I was a teen. I haven't seen it since. Prom Night.....I am pretty sure I saw it, and I think I didn't like it at the time. I might have to watch both of those soon.Jigsaw wrote:Watching Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II (1987) for the second time.

Out of the four Prom Night films (I know - I can't believe there are four either), I've seen the first two.Jmac Attack wrote:I remember really liking it when I was a teen. I haven't seen it since.

Always had lukewarm thoughts on the first one (after seeing it four times, I still give it around a 6.5/10, or just below average). Second one is holding up well thus far, though I'm only 40 minutes in.
Can't say I'm that interested in the third film, at least based off the plot, but the fourth does sound pretty fun (despite being from the early 90's, a somewhat dismal time for horror).

Didn't think much of the first, but haven't watched it in a really really long time to have a fair assessment of it. II was pretty crap. Not dogshit, but maybe catshit that already had the benefit of rolling around in Arm & Hammer baking soda.

Re: What are you watching?
I will give it props for one thing - for a slasher, it did have a pretty emotional ending. Good song paired with it, too.DancesWithWerewolves wrote:Didn't think much of the first, but haven't watched it in a really really long time to have a fair assessment of it. II was pretty crap.

Other than that, I generally find it a pretty dull and tedious affair with a few good dance scenes.
