That Thing You Do. Somehow, I'd never seen it.

I only just watched it for the first time last year
I saw that on TV in my tender twenties. Heard good things about it. Never thought I'd enjoy it as much as I did.
THE SUBSTANCE. I haven't been as entertained since CAPTAIN FANTASTIC eight years ago.
My mom and I saw The Wild Robot in the theater this morning, it was pretty good. Definitely glad we saw it in the theater, it really impressive animation, and a nice story, with a great cast. For those unware it was Lupita Nyong'o, Pedro Pascal, Kit Connor, Catherine O'Hara, Bill Nighy, Stephanie Hsu, Mark Hamill, Matt Berry, and Ving Rhames. I had no idea until their characters showed up that Bill Nighy and Matt Berry where in it until their characters showed up, and I thought Rhames sounded familiar but didn't realize who he was until the credits showed his name next to his character.
Deadpool & Wolverine.
We watched Ghostbusters: Afterlife last night.
The 4:30 Movie. Such a sweet flick.
Last night, we watched the original ('79) Salem's Lot.
The Shining (1980). Very creepy, and the cinematography is very good. 8/10
As is our custom for Day of the Dead, we watched The Book of Life last night.
Red One
It was pretty good. A bit overly long but it's a nice Christmas movie that is geared to more older children and not your usual younger kids. Some good world building which I could see leading to many spin offs from other mythological characters that aren't Christmas related.

Before Dawn (RKO) and The Crime of the Century (Paramount)--(both 1933).
I've been on a Pre-Code mystery/crime film kick lately. Both of these films have Stu Erwin in leading, not supporting roles, and he's not a clueless character for a change, which is refreshing. Warner Oland (Charlie Chan) in the former as villain; plot involves some "psychic" elements which are muted and not over-done. Some nice jabs and silly humor which were greatly appreciated. Jean Hersholt, Wynne Gibson in the latter. The villain in the latter was definitely a surprise, and there's a mid-film "break" of a bit more than a minute to allow the viewer to think about who committed the murders. Nice opening character credits in the latter, as well. Great aesthetic. Both a very pleasant way to spend 60-75 minutes.

Christmas Vacation via Amazon Prime.
Still funny.

Our cable went out for a while yesterday, so I watched Star Trek: First Contact on DVD while I waited for it to come back. I'd been thinking about watching it again for a while now, and this was the perfect opportunity to do it. I love First Contact, it's one of my all time favorite movies.
Sasquatch Sunset. Y'all should watch it.
