Well, it's not gonna be Tom Hanks movies, that gotten used up.
Has anyone mentioned The Money Pit? Fuckin' classic.
The Ladykillersssss
Hey! I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life.
I watched this on Thanksgiving last year along with a few other Hanks films. I called it T. Hanks Giving. It was a lot of fun.

Watched two absurd movies...
Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar - 7/10
Sort of a gender swapped Step Brothers written by and starring Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumulo at their bizarre best. Two awkward, and far too close, middle aged best friends decide to shake off the doldrums and go on vacation. This movie is insane. It's impossible to put into words how off the wall the intertwining characters and side-plots are; love triangles, super villains, misplaced musical numbers, a Reba McIntyre cameo... it's certifiable. If you enjoy stupid humor and the comedy of Wiig then you'll probably dig this.

Willy's Wonderland - 7.5/10
Do you want to watch Nic Cage fight demonically possessed animatronic characters at a Chuck E Cheese-inspired family restaurant? Because I think you do. The quintessential example of Cage sleepwalking through the B-movies that litter his career. And you know what? It works like gangbusters. Total shlock. Ridiculous plot. Terrible acting. Brutal violence. Hilarious. Somebody said this was a rip-off of Five Nights at Freddy's. I don't know what that is. Willy's Wonderland is about as good as the modern horror-comedy can get.

Speaking of batshit movies, I turned off the Sixers game last night and watched Ten to Midnight with Charles Bronson. I think I remember hearing about how nuts this movie is (and that’s only a slight reference to the fact that killer murders chicks in the nude with his cock just hanging out for most of the film) but this movie is insane. Ebert gave it a 0/4. Worth a watch just for the scene where Bronson confronts the killer with what can only be described as an early 80s prototype of a Fleshlight. Not for children. On HBO Max.
Sorta feel like it should be renamed "Six to Midnight"

This is spectacular:
Scorsese writes a beautiful essay on Fellini and all the superhero bros get mad at him. Outstanding.

I guess I know what I'm doing with my day off tomorrow.
It should be required viewing for all members of the site.

I'm going to become the Cruella.
Holy fuck is this idea stupid
Why is every villain now a Batman villain? I don't want every villain to be a Batman villain.
What's even the goal here? "Oh, now I understand her! Totally on board with why she wants to murder puppies for coats!"

It's too late Logan, we live in a society now.
Because real life villains are now Batman villains.

A decade before Mufasa's murder, a young Scar leads the Watering Hole Putsch.
Never saw Bonfire, but worst post-superstardom that I can think of is The Terminal. Spielberg too and it's garbage.

He's not the lead, but The Circle is one of the worst movies of the 21st century.
Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close is very bad too.
We'll learn how their father was the true monster and that Mufasa was a product of the privilege bestowed upon the first born. Also, Scar was beaten and berated by his father due to his questioning his sexuality during his adolescence. The real villains will be primogeniture and bigotry.
