Movie Favorite Watch

"I usually have Reservoir Dogs and Rocky Horror Picture Show on my list, because I just love them so much. I did Kids, and the first film I really can remember watching specifically to look at acting after that was Reservoir Dogs. My dad had given me the VHS tape of it to watch over and over and over again. Well, he didn’t intend for me, I think, to watch it over and over and over again, but I watched it over and over again; I think I watched it like five or six times that week. I would come home from school and I would just watch it again, and memorize the whole thing, and I was just so blown away by the acting in it. It seemed like it must have had all this money, because you remember it being bloody, you remember the shock, all that kinda stuff. And then you watch it and you’re like, “Actually, [Quentin Tarantino] cut around all of that.” The dude with red stuff on his chest, you know what I mean? It’s all acting. And it’s such an interesting way of telling the story, going back and inside of itself. My dad, I’ll never forget, he was like, “Watch this for the acting,” and I was just blown away. So I feel like that’s a piece of work that I love looking at as sort of a modern way of getting into those huge monologues, telling stories in an epic way, and the sort of more modern kind of small stories."

Baba Yaga

The baba yaga returns in the stylish ultra violent John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum. The time span of the three movies is around 2 weeks, and opens within minutes of the events of Chapter 2.

While the two previous chapters have solely been in New York, Chapter 3 adds Casablanca, and introduces more back story to John Wick.

If you are going for John Wick, it;s not about the depth of the story, one of franchises biggest positives is the stylish and skillful action sequences, John Wick 3 delivers in droves.

The film sets up for a Chapter 4, leaving us wondering what the baba yaga is bringing to us next.

AT (1676 KP) rated Lady and the Tramp (2019) in Movies

Jan 4, 2020

Overall, the new Lady and the Tramp movie was cute. However, I didn't love that they completely recreated the Siamese cats. The were so classic to the old Disney animated version that it was sad to see them be so changed, assuming due to modern social issues. I wasn't nuts about the new cats or their new song. I also missed the puppies at the end of the animated movie! They also didn't have the Bloodhound get hit by the horses at the end of the live-action version. So some scenes were watered-down a bit, but all in all, the dogs were still cute and it was fun to see. I'm just personally still a bigger fan of the Disney animated version, I guess.
