Movie Roll Call: What have you seen lately?

[Todd Anderson]

We watched Kimi this weekend. I thought it was an above average film until the end... worth watching? If you're looking for a 90 min film, yes.

Fall Guy and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

Rewatched The Dark Knight Rises. First time I’ve seen it with my current speaker setup. I was very impressed with the audio.

Still one we revisit from time to time. Fantastic movie and a A/V treat!

Saw X and Inside Out 2 last night. Polar opposites but both enjoyable.

How was Inside Out 2? I’ve heard the movie itself is great, but how about the A/V?

It was fantastic on all fronts.

Pixar movies normally are great on the A/V side

Watching the Movie Dark Waters...excellent movie about when Dupont was sued for poisoning everyone with teflon.

The Beekeeper. It was worth a watch, nothing more.

Jason Statham movies (for me) have become "if you've seen one, you've seen the last ten."

It's not quite as bad as Steven Seagal making his B movie run, though.

The concept for the movie was interesting to me tbh. I'm sure it has been used at some point in time but I'd never heard of it. If it hasn't been used then whoever came up with it is brilliant.

As for Statham, yeah he's a bit of a struggle since Snatch. But I think he fits in this one.

Ok we're getting a bit off topic here now as this is the "Movie Roll Call".

Knew you were good for something.

I mentioned previously that I rewatched The Dark Knight Rises recently. That was on Blu-ray. I just picked up the trilogy on 4K, as it's on sale right now at Amazon. I'm excited to check out the uptick in resolution and HDR between my old Blu-ray and the new 4Ks!

You could have at least made that plural.

I just watched the Watchers on Kscape last night and I was very happy with it despite some negative reviews. I know many get cold feet with any Shyamalan films after the Sixth Sense and I get that. That film set the bar pretty high.

I think his daughter did well with this release.

I watched it last night. It was an excellent flick with great details in special effects and the soundtrack didn't suck either. It had a really good story line.

I can't help but wonder if that dark band across Furiosa's head stains pillow cases?

I think there fantastic looking for sure.

I need to check that out. It has been YEARS since I have seen it. Never did catch the new one.

Watched The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare over the weekend. Really fun movie, I will definitely rewatch it multiple times. The Atmos was a standout as well. In one scene the characters were on the lower deck of an old wooden boat having a conversation and you could hear the wood boards of the upper deck creeking in the ceiling speakers. Such a cool effect!

Agreed, really good movie and Atmos track!
