Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

[x Buddha Bless x]

So in.

I read the description and said oh sounds like Bullet Train but on a plane and less star actors.

Seeing the trailer though They just don’t give a ****. All that gunfire on a plane, ******* ARs just being let off. Remind me of Crank

 

[water runs dry]

Kinda brave they released that trailer given recent events.

 

[Master Zik]

Dune Part 2
Didi
Alien: Romulus
Challengers
The Iron Claw (technically 2023, but didn't see it until early JAN)

Worst movies I saw were Beekeeper and Argylle.

 

[griff]

Man I forgot about Didi. I enjoyed it a lot. I’ll add that to my honorable mentions

 

[CP1708]

Worst movies I saw were Beekeeper and Argylle.

 

[Mark Antony]

I keep forgetting to get a letterbox to keep track of that stuff.

 

[el presidente]

Rang in the New Year with this in 35mm. Christmas classic?

 

[calibeebee]

Super late to the “actor/actress you expected to have a big career but then disappeared” convo, but a few come to mind:

Elisha Cuthbert
Emily Browning
Leelee Sobieski
“Sunshine” from Remember the Titans
Daisy Ridley (jury is still out but I thought she would have been MUCH bigger by now)
Ryan Philippe
Clemency Poesy
Garrett Hedlund


A ton of females got blacklisted by Harvey Weinstein, but most are complete head scratchers as to why they are not A-listers today.

den of thieves finale:

already ordering tickets for part 2 in theaters next week

 

[griff]

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

First watch in 2025..

 

[reconic supreme]

was shocked by how good 50 cent was in Den of Thieves

very laid back and reserved role that i didn’t think he had in him until i saw it

 

[x Buddha Bless x]

Damn I don’t even remember Curtis being in Den of Thieves

 

[CP1708]

He’s actually a very good actor. He carried Power IMO

 

[aepps20]

Folks that I thought would have bigger careers.


1. Tia, Tamera and Tahj Mowry

2. Lee Thompson Young (RIP to him but he legit put Disney on his back and deserve better roles after the Famous Jett Jackson and Friday Night Lights. Razolli and Isles was solid but he died too young)

3. Jason Weaver. He’s had a great career but he deserved more acting and singing roles.

4. Christy Carlson Ramano- She co-led Even Stevens with Shia but his career took off and hers didn’t.

5. Everyone from Friday Night Lights TV show except the Coach, his wife, and MBJ. Adrianne Pallicki surprised me that she didn’t take off.

6. Jamie Lynn Spears

Damn Final Destination is back?!

I did like that whole series of movies the first time around and how they wrapped it up by connecting it to the first film.

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

My new years resolution is to watch more movies..

I'm about to re-watch this classic (IMO) on Max..

 

[youngwolf]

I feel as though Amanda Seyfried should’ve had a much larger career.

 

[Nike Jordan]

I'm watching Law & Order episodes and Samuel L. Jackson appeared in one episode...

...one of his clients was played by Philip Seymour Hoffman.

 

[Bronson]

Kelly Macdonald is so cute

 

[calibeebee]

Kelly Macdonald is so cute

I didn’t know she was a real actress until a little bit after this came out. Fell in love with her character from Trainspotting. Thought she was just Scottish. This is the only other thing I’ve seen her in

 

[getback]

Watched True Romance for the first time. Wild movie. Very good. Patricia Arquette was great.
