Solely so that I could put this clip up. When men aren’t thinking of the Roman Empire…

Movie of the Week: RED DAWN (the REAL one).

PS: According to the Internet, RED DAWN is forty years old today. …God help us all.
Movie of the Week: TANGLED.
I don’t know how I got sucked into rewatching TANGLED. All I know is, that movie has absolutely no business being as good as it is. Seriously, if you’ve never watched it then you’re missing out. Also note that the cover image actually accurately promises you some of the stuff that happens in the movie itself. I know Disney’s quality has slipped, but this is firmly from a time period where that had not yet happened.
Movie of the Week: KUNG FU PANDA.
KUNG FU PANDA has no business being this good a movie. Seriously, everybody thought it was going to suck: it had all the warning signs. I think I watched this on my flight back from Hawaii, and I was mesmerized at how easily it all worked. Just goes to show, huh?

Movie of the Week: Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
Believe it or not, I’ve never seen MR. & MRS. SMITH before. But it’s available on streaming, so I figured I’d check it out. …It is an absurd film, yes. Absurd, unbelievable, enough plot holes to drive a truck through, and I enjoyed every second of it. If you haven’t watched it, go ahead.
Movie of the Week: BARBIEHEIMER.
Come, now. We all knew this was inevitable. BARBIE and OPPENHEIMER are quantumly entangled, now. They will reference each other until the sun contracts into a red dwarf. This is… destiny.

Movie of the Week: THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER.
THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER IS my favorite horror movie I’ve seen this year. It’s lots of fun, but fair warning: don’t watch it if you like your vampires sexy. Or have an irrational investment in seeing characters survive horror movies. I don’t feel that I’m spoiling anything by saying that.

Movie of the Week: Renfield.
I’m sorry, but Renfield was fun. My kid in particular loved it, and was disappointed that more people did not. There is honestly no accounting for taste, sometimes.
Movie of the Week: THE A-TEAM.
I understand that some people do not like THE A-TEAM remake, and I accept that. It’s not my business, really. Realize, however, that this scene almost had me rolling on the floor of the movie theater. That has to count for something.

Movie of the Week: Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse.
It’s not actually out, yet – but Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse is currently at a decent pre-order price, so I’d lock that in. Great flick, by the way, if you haven’t seen it yet. Part One of two, but that’s a thing that happens because we don’t want to make four hour movies with intermissions anymore.
Just saying, that’s all.
