#Reminiscence Tremendous, clean #EternalSunshine-meets-#Inception-meets-#HardRain-meets-#Elysium-meets-#Brazil -meets-#Chinatown fun! The #Westworld gang's reunited and it feels so good. That's some feature debut from young Joy. And the cast gives it their all: Curtis(where's this on his ethnicity bingo card?), Wu(was his character called a Saint for those abs😳?!), #Wolverine(who makes for a fine tragic romantic hero), the great Ferguson(doesn't do her own stunts, but definitely does her own singing👏!), and Newton(who steals, the whole dang show). And, boy, talk about sticking the landing(😕🤤), somewhere fellow young Chazelle nods in approval👍 Wait, is this gigantic enterprise a metaphor(?allegory🤷‍♀️?) for dementia?! - - - #Lisa Joy #RaminDjawadi #JonathanNolan #RebeccaFerguson #HughJackman #ThandiweNewton #CliffCurtis #DanielWu #AngelaSarafyan #NatalieMartinez #BretCullen @reminiscencefilm @lisajoynolan @wbpictures @hbomax

RIP #CharlieWatts Per all the critics, one of *the* most important parts one of *the* most important rock n' roll bands of all time. Me? I'm no critic, but I loved that guy. Ever since I was a kid, for whatever reason(okay it was #TheBeatles cartoon and finding out how funny #RingoStarr was!) I always loved the drummer. And Watts was such a cool-cat customer, especially compared to his histrionic bandmates, how could you not love that guy?! After growing up hearing all about #TheRollingStones, the first CD(yeah, I'm *that* old) I bought of theirs was #VoodooLounge, only to discover, to my horror, that the version of "Love Is Strong" QBS had been playing was, in fact, a super-awesome remix, and the version of the album was nothing like it. But I gave the whole CD a listen(back then you had to listen to the *whole* thing), and it was actually pretty good…and then, snap-zoom/flash-cut forward *many* years and there's Ralph Fiennes in Guadagnino-Land,

#Nobody Very good, very un-clean(😵!) I-didn't-have-#Odenkirk-on-my-#Neeson-late-stage-#ChekhovsGun(🤓😏)-one-man-action-bingo-card fun! Kudos to the DP and those delectable gleaming nighttime exteriors (and I normally whinge about digital cinematography). Kudos, too, to the kid director, who gets a second, ahem, shot, after the Hardcore Henry debacle and more than redeems himself. Kudos to the producers, who could've phoned it in as an DTV actioner; instead of doing a cheapie, looks like they put some serious cash in the budget. Who are these people👏?! Kudos, OMBG, *all* the kudos, to the great Lloyd, he of, ya know, the *original* #TheDreamTeam(🤓😏); first time I ever heard the term degausser, of course, I thought it was de-gas-ser, but that's a TBT story for another day… PS. So in Act I(according to all the screenwriting manuals I never read), our protagonist is supposed to be dissatisfied with his status quo, but the dude is happily married to a su

#F9 "Just obey the laws of physics" Why start now 🤣?! Good, clean those-crazy-b**tards-finally-did-it-they-broke-the-final-frontier fun! Just switch off your brain and go with the *insane* flow(& whatever you do, don't get into a TBH-wait-why-did-X-happen? discussion afterwards😂!). So, wait, Fast and the Furious made it to space before Branson/Bezos/Musk?! Maybe they're just setting up F10: Dom v Billionaires in Space🤔🤣? Speaking of…the kid playing Dom's younger self is terrific! Maybe he can do a #YoungDiesel spinoff, keep it in the corporate family and pair it with #YoungRock on #NBC(as long as there are no crossovers😏)?! PS. Stay for the end-credits stinger🤭! - - - #JustinLin #CharlizeTheron #VinDiesel #MichelleRodriguez #VinnieBennett #JohnCena #NathalieEmmanuel #SungKang #TyreseGibson #Ludacris #JordanaBrewster #HelenMirren #KurtRussell #CardiB #Ozuna #SheaWhigham #MichaelRooker #LucasBlack (whew…anyone else😮?!) #Fast
