I've been watchin Happy Face on Paramount. It says based on a true story so I always wonder how much is true and how much was added for drama. I've never read or watched anything about the Happy Face killer. It also made me wonder if anything from The Mentalist's serial killer Red John was based...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot updates say that it will focus on a slayer named Nova who will be mentored by Buffy (Sarah Michelle Geller). I hope they do this reboot justice. Buffy is iconic.

I think movie theaters are suffering because it costs $18 for a matinee here. Maybe all the overpaid in Hollywood need to start taking paycuts to make it cheaper to get movies to theaters. I'm sure they will somehow manage to live on even half of their double digit contracts.

I finally got around to watching September 5 which is now streaming on Paramount. It is an interesting movie focusing on the roots of live news coverage in a crisis. A lot to think about.

I found Visionaries on the Roku Channel. Keanu Reeves and Gard did a series of documentaries on people who are doing unique things in their fields. The first episode is a guy who is 3D printing rockets for space. The engines take 2-3 years with existing processes. This guy can print one in 2...

I don't see Paapa Essiedu being able to carry off that oily greasy unwanted person look that Snape had throughout his life. He's too pretty. I still have Alan Rickman as the measure for Snape though and I don't know how many people could live up to that yardstick.

Sonic 3 is streaming on Paramount already.

I'm trying to remember which Olympics had Push Dick's Button along with Moskvina. That was a great add. I still think it was one of the best figure skating fluff additions of all time. I'm pretty sure they got the idea from this. I could be wrong.

The only crew that hasn't said anything seems to be the Firefly group and it makes me wonder what is being hidden and why. Why would they be the only ones where he decided to act like a decent person?

I think I'm having a hard time getting past that it doesn't feel like Star Trek and just didn't meet the standard. Otherwise it probably is a somewhat ok generic sci-fi movie with some very cheesy dialogue. There were a few moments where I cringed for the actors having to deliver some of those...

Section 31 on Paramount is just bad. It doesn't even feel like Star Trek. I wish I could say that at least you get to see Michelle Yeoh being badass but I can't. Even she couldn't save this turd. It was boring and bad with nothing to redeem it. I fell asleep in the middle of it and didn't even...

Putting this link here to keep the other one skater focused. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/near-misses-at-washington-airport-worried-pilots-well-before-fatal-crash/ar-AA1y9qag?ocid=BingNewsSerp Ya think? It took this to maybe realize that?

I don't have a preference on unknown or star but they need to cast that perfectly for it to work. Michael Landon was so iconic in that role and it's going to be hard to replace memories (real or idealized). The role of Laura or Nellie might be hard to cast too. I'm trying to think through the...

The old TV series Grimm is going to get a movie release on Peacock. This just screams holding on to copyright but I hope they do it justice. I liked the series. Rosalee and Monroe are one of the few on screen couples that are not toxic to watch. They were my favorites on the show.

Squid Games season 2 is out on Netflix now. The first episode is already messed up yet so good. Cheers to turning childhood games into horror. :40beers:
