Not watching yet, but will be for sure.
The Many Saints of Newark is a prequel to The Soprano's. Loved that show and had no idea they were even making a prequel until today. So I will be a bachelor on October 1 because the wife was never a Soprano's fan like I was.

I’ll have to see if my kids are aware of that. Both were huge Sopranos fans. I didn’t have HBO then so I never watched it.
Yep, we are on deck.
James Gandolfini's son playing him as the young Tony Soprano is kind of mind blowing. I mean, holy shit:
Vera Farmiga as Livia Soprano, Corey Stoll as Junior Soprano, also starring Jon Bernthal, Ray Liotta, Leslie Odom Jr.
Yes please.

BRI (bobross.com) sure fucked them, snakes that took the family name and didn't give a cent to his son, the only one who actually stood by Bob. They tried to get Bob to sign away all rights to his name while he was on his deathbed and he refused, so after he died they wanted to keep it secret as not to hurt sales, then went on to outspend and sue the son for the name. You've never seen such scum than the Kowalski Family.Bob Ross: Happy Accidents, Betrayal and Greed.
I grew up watching Bob, Norm Abrams and Roy Underhill. So sad to see the Bob Ross legacy. I'm led to believe this account is mostly accurate.
Anyone interested in Bob Ross products should boycott anything with his name on it.
Witches of Eastwick (1987)- Jack Nicholson tour de force, if you like Jack Nicholson. 
Three women are taken in by a wealthy man for a more or less unholy lifestyle before they tire of his devilish ways.

The Wraith (1986) - 80s. Cars. 80s cars. A very shiny black car. Space aliens/ghosts? A drive-in burger joint with waitresses on roller skates. Charlie Sheen, who seems like he is gonna be the star of the movie and then isn’t seen on screen for an hour. Characters named Skank, Rughead, and Gutterboy. Randy Quaid is a Sheriff who illustrates his storytelling with origami and puts a LOT of sugar in his coffee. Explosions. Did I mention cars?
Discussed on my favorite podcast not long ago:
The Wraith: LIVE! - Earwolf
Tim Baltz (Shrink, Bajillion Dollar Propertie$) and Eliza Skinner (The Late Late Show with James Corden, Angry Little Goats) join Paul and Jason to discuss the 1986 action-horror film The Wraith. Recorded live from Largo at the Coronet in Los Angeles, they’ll talk about Charlie Sheen barely...

I couldn’t believe Randy Quaid actually took a sip of the coffee… I am definitely going to have to listen to that podcast now. I wonder if Rifftrax or MST3K did this movie…Discussed on my favorite podcast not long ago:

I own it on DVD …
It's even one of those "jewel box" type cases, hahaha, and I love the cover art that's totally deceptive about the actual plot ...
Normal ticket prices at the theater?

Thanks for the heads up, hadn’t been keeping track. Got myself tickets for Wednesday now.
Basically don’t know anything about the movie, going to be awesome!
Normal for the theater with the reclining seats that you reserve in advance. More expensive than the regular theater to start with, but you also don’t have to worry about being inches from other patrons.

"Drumline" (HBO) is from a long line of films that started with "Cool Hand Luke", the kind about a wiseass young man, Nick Cannon, who can't help bucking the system. He's very good and knows it, so it's up to band director Orlando Jones to get him to fall in line and understand that it's not just about him.
Along the way there's a lot of good music, albeit of the college marching band kind. Don't wince--it's actually impressive as hell. This movie really showcases the complicated choreography and showmanship that goes into these programs. A-

Movie gets a thumbs up although I’ll have to watch it again to decide if it is ownership worthy. Has a strong start, outstanding fight on a bus, gets a little muddled in the middle with multiple flashbacks for basically the simplest of plots as follows:

Both he and his sister are called home in a convoluted manner (lots of fighting being attacked, instead of an invite) to help his Father, leader of the Ten Rings rescue his diseased Mom, he believes is imprisoned in her parallel reality fantasy home land

Cold Mountain (2003)- A most dismal US Civil War story that portrays humanity in a dark light. That’s not saying it’s inaccurate, it’s just depressing how predatory, disgusting, and flawed human beings can be.

Saw it and kind of liked it.
Aside from a few cameos, this could have been a movie completely separate from the MCU. Just a big-budget action movie with asian mysticism and fighting. That’s something I really like, the movie can stand on its own legs even if things will turn out to be important for the bigger story being told.
Wong stole the show. As usual. And they handled the Mandarin “problem” quite well.

New Matrix trailer is out, looking forward to this one. I was working in San Francisco during some of the filming and it was pretty cool.
Ok, it’s been a while, last we saw Neo he sacrificed himself so there would be peace between the machines and humanity. Looking forward to how this story ties in.
Jolt (2021 Prime Video)- Cate Beckinsale plays a woman with physical talents and an anger management issue controlled by shocking herself. Low critic and audience score at Rotten Tomatoes, but I liked this, and so will you if you enjoy a high energy, humorous romp even if it is unrealistic as she kicks butt all over town. They were not going for realism.
