As much as I loved the cartoon version of Aladdin, the 2019 remake has by far disappointed me. Will Smith was a mistake as genie. The singing from the beginning was a let down, and then throughout the film.

On the other hand the film was alright, besides the new additional songs which was added into the film sung by Princess Jasmine. Kind of ruined it for me.

So Quill discovers his Father is in gfact this alien being called Ego...quite appropriate. Its all part of a plan to remake the universe in his own image.

While the film has a few good moments (baby Groot, Yandu, Rocket all have stand out scenes) it's ultimately a run of the mill, by the numbers comic book movie. Yes it's pretty, yes it's got a big budget, no I didn't enjoy it.
  
There is talk of a remake/reboot of one of my all-time favorite movies, The Last Starfighter. The original writer had held the rights for a long time I guess and even said no to Steven Spielberg at one point.

Now it sounds like it might happen from the writer of Rogue One. They are messing with my childhood here, so not sure how I feel about it.

This remake of the 1981 version is good, but not great. Their is no ash chatcter, expect in the post credit sence which was shoot at the last minute.

Anways, Mia, a drug addict, is determined to kick the habit. To that end, she asks her brother, David, his girlfriend, Natalie and their friends Olivia and Eric to accompany her to their family's remote forest cabin to help her through withdrawal. Eric finds a mysterious Book of the Dead at the cabin and reads aloud from it, awakening an ancient demon. All hell breaks loose when the malevolent entity possesses Mia.

If you take the first letter of each charcters names it spells out demon. Intresting fact.

This film is gory, gory and more gory. I like the oringal film better than this. But this remake is okay.
