Have a week left with the 1,000 nit screen so lining up good 4k UHD...of course Top Gun: Maverick came up ......so why not.
I agree the orginal is the better flick but Maverick is ok too and spectacular in 4k UHD.
 
Pure mayhem and a fantastic 4k UHD transfer - Man of Steel I had not seen.
worth the money just for that one.....

Two more to go.... 🍿
 
I'd argue with the 10 rating on the visual quality but the cast is great. Gal Gadot is yummy. I am liking this Superman version. Nice to see Neil Degrasse Tyson.

The Family Plan. Retired assassin laying low selling used cars in Buffalo, wife, kids, suburbs, Honda Odyssey (MP?). Pic of him taken in public posted on social media. Everything goes sideways. John Wick-esque comedy. Is what it is. Romp with some funny bits and OTT action sequences/gunplay.
 
Justice League....damn just over 4 hours !!! But excellent 4k source and I generally was very engaged tho the epilogue was confusing.
It is just sooooo long.
 
Love the music, good cast and if you don't watch the credits...you'll miss the movie

"Wild Things" is lurid trash, with a plot so twisted they're still explaining it during the closing titles. It's like a three-way collision between a softcore sex film, a soap opera and a B-grade noir. I liked it. This being the latest example of Florida Noir (hot on the high heels of "Palmetto"), it has a little of everything, including ominous shots of alligators looking as if they know more than they're telling.

The movie solidifies Neve Campbell's position as the queen of slick exploitation, gives Matt Dillon and Kevin Bacon lots of chances to squint ominously, and has a sex scene with Denise Richards (of "Starship Troopers") that is either gratuitous or indispensable, depending on your point of view.

The true story of Aidan MacCarthy, a young medical graduate from the south-west of Ireland who survived some of the most harrowing experiences of World War II - evacuation from Dunkirk, then almost four years of POW captivity and finally surviving the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. 70 years later, his daughter travels to Japan in search of the mysterious donor of a Japanese Samurai sword, that her father had brought back with him after the war. A story of real-life adventure, human survival, forgiveness , and closure.
 
Gave Napoleon a shot the other night. Couldn't do it, about 20 min in had to turn it off.

I’ve finished II already, but it was on ps4. When @mimico_polak is done with my ps5 I’ll probably buy it for that system and replay

ya, spoilers for sure.

still very cool. i'm looking forward to watching this, even though i'll be overseas when it launches.
 
Oppenheimer was great. Sean Avery, a former OHL (Kingston Frontenacs, I saw him play there, he was an entertaining menace) and NHL player has a small role in it.
