And the gem of the bunch was King of New York. Went into this one not knowing anything about it and loved every second of it. Weird and almost art-housey but it was a great ride.
Saw Dune 2 for the third and last time on IMAX (since Godzilla x Kong is taking its place in theaters).
I forgot, are we allowed to mention TV shows here? I just finished 3 Body Problem and currently watching Shogun. Also watching The Walking Dead - Those Who Live. Not really a fan of TWD but decided to see what this spinoff is all about, and before I know it the last episode is tomorrow. I’m meh about it and will just finish it since it’s only one more episode.
Lift - Netflix - total garbage. Like a really bad "oceans 11"
Ricky Stanicky - Amazon - Dumb humor, but I enjoyed it. John Cena has great comedic timing - that's probably most of it.
Shogun - Hulu - Pretty entertaining. It's 50% culture clash between Japan and a "Barbarian" from London, and 50% warring Japanese clans.
Bill Burr - Paper Tiger - Netflex standup. The feminism jokes at the beginning already feel dated, but if you stick it out, the latter half is pretty great.
Halo - Paramount+ - Season 1 was fun, but pretty slow. Season 2 picks up and starts to have a compelling story. I never played the game btw.
Curb your Enthusiasm - HBO (I'm not calling it Max - no one knows what that is). For me, this continues to be some of the best comedy I've ever watched.
Roadhouse (2024) - Amazon - A fun watch. It's more a sequel than a remake of the original. The "rich bad guy" was the weakest point.
