Geek Mentality

Another time related movie. Another TIME LOOP movie. And another time loop HULU original movie! The irony is not lost on me that I have been doing pretty much the exact same thing for the past 16 days of my life. I'm very meta. And this movie - is a lot of fun.

Today is another one of those, "You haven't seen this movie yet?" movies. And since the fact that this is today's movie already answers that question, perhaps I can take the rest of this text to just gush over how amazing Jake Gyllenhaal's performance was on this role. Oh you already knew that? Well, aren't you special...

Finally! Finally, I've seen this movie. I can't believe it took me this long. I saw parts 2 and 3 in the theater, but missed out on this entry in the series. I then planned on saving it for a movie month, and don't even remember if I could have watched it last year - but here we are! Again, finally. To infinity....and....you know the rest!

Today I finally ventured to a place I thought I'd never go to see a Movie Month entry - Tubi! But after listening to a podcast (After Lunch podcast) mention this movie recently (aka yesterday) I realized, I'd never seen this movie! And it's that what true meaning of Movie Month is, kids? Robert Downey Jr., Val Kilmer, AND Shane Black? How could I not enjoy this 2005 take on the classic...

Happy Superman Day! Today I celebrated the Man of Steel by watching – Superman III ? On purpose? Well, you can imagine what I thought about this movie. On second thought, don’t imagine, listen and find out for sure!

So I watch this movie and enjoy it enough for what it is - but then forget to mention the "funniest" kill of the movie (think elevator) and I find out after the fact that there is an animated prequel coming to Netflix starring much of the same cast. I guess Netflix is in the Zack Snyder business!

If you've never heard of this movie, that's okay - now you have. Watch it. Now. I'll wait. Okay, welcome back. What did you think? Me too. Bonkers. Silly. Weird. Dumb. All of the above. And so, so, so much fun.

This movie made me want to put on a track suit and get a much cooler accent. So much fun, and I am glad I finally watched it.

Today, I rip the band-aid off of the X-Men franchise hopefully for the last time. The last couple X-Men moves have been pretty bad and it seems like the original franchise is going out with a whimper. Hopefully Disney will rescue (some of) these characters.

I called an audible today. I fully went into today planning on doing a different movie, but when I went to the HBO Max site and saw this highlighted, I realized I've never seen it and I totally wanted to. So I did. And spoiler alert: I loved it. But still listen so you can at least hear my voice. My sweet, sweet voice.

What is it with me and all these time related movies this month? Ain’t nobody got time for that! Is that still a thing? I kinda feel like that’s not a thing anymore. Oh, and I really dug today’s movie. Big Andy Samberg fan, and a fun as hell movie. Hulu’s website still stinks though.

I'm not much of a drinker - but parts of this movie makes me wish I drank more. Other parts make me happy that I don't. All in all, there's movie won the Oscar for Best International Film. I have one simple rule with foreign language films - no English dubbing. Read like an adult.

I like these Christopher Landon movies because they take an established concept and just add a little twist – and a lot of gore. Good family fun!

The Warrens are back! I realized today that I really enjoy watching Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson play these characters, and hope this isn't the end. I think this might be the first "same day" movies where it was also released in theaters. Sure, I am looking forward to going back to the movies - but if I can choose couch over theater - couch win every times. 

Finally I saw the giant lizard fight the giant gorilla. Did I like this as much as the last Godzilla movie? Well, you're going to have to listen if you want to find out. C'mon, you've come this far. Hit play. Do it. I dare you.

I have to admit - this movie blew my mind. It could be related to lack of sleep, and I am pretty sure I understood a good 54% of what I was seeing - but what I did comprehend, I enjoyed the hell out of.

The time has come. It's June again and here I am back for year 8 of Movie Month! Ready to watch 30 more movies (Movies 211-240) in 30 days - and talk about it to all of you cool kids. Let the good times roll with my first pick of the month - the 2020 "Bill and Ted Face The Music" - one of the many movies that totally got screwed by that pesky pandemic. But at least I finally watched it...

For the first time in a long time I sat down and watched the 1980 Richard Lester (sorta Donner) film, " Superman II ." And let me tell you as great as Christopher Reeve is, this movie just was not as good as I used to think it was.

It's been too many years since I've last watched " Superman: The Movie " - probably the first memory I have of anything having to do with Superman. It's between that and Super Friends, but for the sake of this podcast - let's go with the movie. I had a ton of fun revisiting this movie on HBO Max, and I think this needs to be a yearly tradition movie - maybe at like Thanksgi...

Back in the saddle again, baybay! I told you I'd start watching all the Superman feature films to grace the big screen - it just took me a bit longer to get there. Today I finally rewatched the first time any DC Superhero was in the theater in a feature length movie (apparently 58 minutes counts) when I saw the kinda silly, kinda boring, " Superman and the Mole-Men " starring George Re...

31 days of watching and podcast about Back to the Future is now complete. Marchy McFly is officially over.....for now. Tonight I try, while out for a walk, to give you scene by scene retelling of this time traveling tale. I know I don't get it all right, but I think I come pretty close. Thanks for sticking with the show all month, I really appreciate it. This one is for my father-in-law. My Ge...

Greetings from another day in sunny Florida. It's day 30. The final day before the final day! Guess what I did this morning? I woke up early and...wait for it...watched Back to the Future for the 30th time in 30 days! I recorded today's show from The Garden of Hope and Courage outside the hospital taking care of my father-in-law. They were only allowing two people in so I had some time to...

Day 29! Coming to you from Florida, where old men walk out of Dunkin Donuts without masks and little tiny flames of fire burn in my eyes! But we landed safely yesterday and got to see my wife's dad before visiting hours ended. Went back and spent some time today (and brought him a Frosty from Wendy's). But of course in the morning - while just awaking from my slumber, sleep still in my stu...
