It was good enough for me to shut of my consciousness and follow along - although maybe I'm too used to z-movie schlock. Wood intended the film for widescreen so all of the boom mics and scripts and other film objects would have been eradicated in that format, but because numerous poor quality matte versions appeared on VHS formats in the 1980s, these miscellaneous objects appeared on screen so people naturally laughed and thought it was a hysterical gaffe on Wood's part. Wood does insert some topically Cold War concerns about man's capacity for annihilation - the ''alien hectoring us stupid Earthlings'' trope - which is very interesting. You also have to applaud his b-movie ingenuity in overcoming budgetary concerns. He basically is trying to make a big budget epic on a budget of one pence and it is very interesting how he overcomes certain technological challenges. if you ever read the book Horror Show by Greg Kihn ( i doubt you will but if you do ) you will notice he borrows almost the entire plot from the Ed Wood movie! watched such a silly movie... Popstar:Never Stop Never Stopping. best part was Justin Timberland Edited July 27, 2017 by AxlsFavoriteRose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones you saw were the ones they always showed on the trailer. Thought the dark haired girl was very good and of course the lead actor too. Still not sure why they had that ending with you know who? Still puzzled by it. I did see Unbreakable, but still not sure why it was connected? Just now, soon said: I cant believe I hadn't heard of it before. Is Ghoulies 2 in the same wheel house? OMG yes! It's the same campy comedy but people are acting serious. lol Love this movie too. My daughter loves it too. The first Ghoulies wasn't as good, but Ghoulies 2 is just so much fun! Check it out. You will love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cried when the plane landed. Reminded how much I miss NYC and of 9/11 again. He was one hell of a pilot that Sully. I never knew the shit they gave him for landing it in the Hudson River. The movie was very good. I'm glad I watched it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlsFavoriteRose Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates 2016 Adam Levine Zac Efron Aubrey Plaza Anna Kendrick. another movie where i was misled by all the trailers i saw before seeing the movie. things that let me down where Aubrey Plaza... i love her SO much in Parks and Rec and was expecting more from her. her performance was kinda flat to me. the choosing of the dates took too long, the pretending of Anna and Aubrey to be goody goodies when they were really bad girls. then after they did the bad stuff the getting the "happy couple" back together. took up too much time. more fun bad girl stuff would have made it much better for me. 5.9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot the name of it. Anyway, the cable channels play Gentlemen prefer Blondes a lot. I think Elvis died in August too or it was his birthday month.

Elvis died in August. i'd to see some of his stuff, i have one movie ( well more a documentary ) of hos waiting to recrod on my DVR, the movie that got me into Marilyn was one i saw on late night TV....Let's Make Love with Yves Montand. i later read her weight fluctuated so much they had to let out her clothes then take them back in as she yo-yo'd. i also put my feet in her footprints. i love her i really want to see The Misfits as i live where part of it was filmed but it's about them trying to save wild horses from being slaughtered. after bonding with my wild horses i'd probably just cry...

AxlsFavoriteRose Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) "I saw the Light" 2015: Tom Hillestone Bradley Whitford. this is supposed to be the story of what "really" happened in Hanks's life. i don't believe there will ever be a "true story" of original Hank but at least this was tons better than the awful George Williams "Your Cheatin' Heart." anyway. just so some people know the truth..i was into Hank, Jr and Hank Williams Jr before you ever "discovered" them AND Hank III. been into country as long as can be... never doubt this Texas chick KNOWS her country music peeps! anyway this movie "I Saw the Light" is good and much better i mentioned before in this post. just sayin' it could be better and i hope someone just NAILS it!
