    I was somewhat disappointed by it. I was holding off watching it until I finally finished "Team of Rivals" on which it was supposedly based. It was, at most, a loose adaptation of the last chapter and could just as easily have been said to have been adapted from any book on Lincoln, or even the Civil War.

    ARGO -- Good movie even though I "knew" the story. Took some liberties to make it more exciting, so it got a bit silly at the end.

    Watched Robinson Crusoe on Mars with my daughter last night after recommendations from SH members. We loved it.

    Followed that with Live and Let Die for my wife and me. Neat extra on the BR disc of Moore playing "Bond" on a 1964 sketch comedy.

    saw it at the movies when I was a kid! I loved it then and when the DVD came out I bought it immediately. I was thrilled it turned up on Criterion!

    Dunno, I still do "old school" Netflix with mail delivery and the extras are usually deleted from their rental discs.

    I just watched PARKLAND was blown away by how powerful it was. The script sticks to established facts but through the eyes of bit players that day in Dallas -- the ER room in Parkland Memorial Hospital, Lee Harvey Oswald's mother and brother, the FBI agent who had interviewed Oswald prior to the assassination, and Zapruder testing out his new camera. We see how traumatized these "average" people were by the events of the weekend. It's a tough film to watch but, I think, is very instructive to those of us who weren't around at the time.

    Yes, but the scenes are surplus to requirement. It originally came out on DVD as the theatrical cut and on Blu-Ray with both versions. A DVD with the extended cut followed a few months later, but there are only a few extra minutes and they add very little. A few extra moments in several scenes, perhaps. There is, if I recall correctly, and alternate take where Tony's son is watching a different movie on TV when they are talking on the phone together, and a scene where the son is out bowling with his friends for his birthday, but - to Affleck's credit - he was right to trim the additional sequences out to tighten it up.

    Watched Ghostbusters with my two boys last night. They really enjoyed it.

    I don't think I had ever watched the whole thing from beginning to end before, certainly not in widescreen. The DVD looked pretty nice. The 4k blu-ray is only $10 on amazon; I think I'll get it.

    I had never noticed how nice Sigourney Weaver's legs were. :)

  23. I watched Hercules last night on Blu-Ray. It was ok. Some good action scenes though.

    Saw it on cable TV. Very enjoyable. I found Tom Cruise to be doing some great work in recent years. And Paula Patton :love:. Robin Thicke....you're an idiot
