David McK (3188 KP) rated Predator: Big Game in Books
Jan 30, 2019
A collection of essays written by tie in writers that cover everything you'd want to know about those books based on your favorite movie or TV series. Since I read the occasional tie in, I found this book fascinating.

It's Star Wars enough said
Great movie that depicts the time just before Episode 4 A New Hope. Tells an in depth tale of The Death Star and how the rebels were able to get the plans. Great background story of the Erso family and other characters to help explain that tie in.

Exactly what you would expect from an MCU movie in this day and age. Great effects, good acting, several tie ins to the overarching franchise, and plenty of doors left open for a continuation if the studio sees fit.
I thoroughly enjoyed the timeline setting of the movie. That was actually one of my favorite things.
It was also nice to see Fury's eye patch explained on film.

Survival of the Fittest
Oh my goodness. This movie was a riot. I have never laughed so hard in my life. It was awesome from beginning to end. I was always curious on how they will tie the original Jumanji to the Sequel, but the execution was perfect. I recommend everyone to watch it.

Entertaining continuation of the original.
Contains spoilers, click to show
I feel that there will never be a replacement for the original with Robin Williams, but this was a fitting continuation and I loved that they added in the tie in from "Alan's Cabin". I had many laugh out loud moments and have even went twice to see this movie. I don't do that often.

Another movie that I feel gets quite a bit of undeserved negative attention.
An origin story of how Han Solo became the Han that we have come and known to love in the Star Wars universe. Some underdeveloped characters, as I think the makers literally just ran out of time and energy. Overall a fun movie with significant tie ins to the SW universe as a whole. Seeing the introduction of Chewy to Han was a personal highlight, as well was the performance of the great Woody Harrelson.

Ok i am going to say i really enjoyed this western. I thought it had the right amout of action in this western.
A great story from the point of view Tonto (Johnny Depp) on how him and John Reid, the Lone Ranger (Armie Hammer) met.
Now the down fault of this movie is that it was under the Disney Flag. If they held off till they had another studio (FOX) and put it out under that studio flag it would have done better. Just seem to violent for a disney movie and alot of adult hummor. Now if they ever plan to remake it again under Disney i would tie in Thunder Mountain and less blood.
