@nedraggett I didn't go to see it at my local #AMC & I'm not going to subscribe to pay to see it on #Disney either.

I'll watching for FREE on any #AltStreaming channel that has it BUT I am going to buy the #DVD if/when one is released because I want to have all 3 of the #Tron movies to make a set.

#Movies

Watched 4 movies at my local #AMC so far this TG week:

Nuremburg
Predators: Badlands
Sisu 2: Road to Revenge
Wicked 2: For Good

Only one more that I want to watch in the current crop:

"Now You See Me 3: Now You Don't" that I'm going to try to watch early on TG Day.

PS: Was interested in watching "Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere" too but it's already gone from AMC. So, I'll have to watch it when it pops on an #AltStreaming channel.

#Movies . . .

I watched a movie double bill at my local #AMC today.

The 1st of the 2 was #PredatorBadlands, which I think was a decent 5th (or 7th depending on how you count them) addition to the #Predator movie franchise.

The Pedator in the movie is named Dek. He is a "runt" who has a Napoleon complex as well as "daddy" issues. His father kills his brother who is trying to protect him & he travels to a planet, where everything has evolved to kill everything else, in order to find a super monster named Kalish in order to prove himself worthy of being recognized as a "man" by his father & his clan.

His relationship with Thia an initially legless android who helps him navigate the planet & its dangers allows for some dialog & helps to provide a means to empathize with Dek.

There's a lot of great CGI, a excellent sound track, some nods to films like Star Wars, ET & Aliens plus some new & innovative ideas presented in the film.

I'd give it a 7 out of 10 & will buy the DVD if/when one is issued for it.

Movie TV Tech Geeks Wicked Fantasy Series Sets Release Date for Season 2 With New Trailer dlvr.it/TPRcCF

2025-11-24

#Movies . . .

While I was at my local #AMC yesterday, I saw a trailer for #Greenland2 due to be released on Jan 9, 2026.

But I didn't recall ever hearing about or seeing #Greeland1 (2020), which is not surprising because it was NEVER released theatrically.

See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenlan

It can still been seen on #PrimeVideo with an #HBOMax subscription but is available to view for FREE on at least one #AltStreaming channel, where I plan to see it before Greenland2 is released.

Wow, great trailer for The Vampire Lestat coming in 2026 #AMC #AnneRice

#Movies

Just watched #Wicked2 & #Sisu2 at my local #AMC these past 2 days.

Taking a day off to just loaf around the house. Woke up at 7 & still haven't gotten out of bed yet at 11. 🤗

Only 2 more movies out of the current crop that I want to see -- #NowYouSeeMe3 & #Nuremburg.

Planning on making a day of it to watch both of them tomorrow with a break for lunch.

This is only possible because I'm retired. 😉

#Movies #ActionMovies #BloodAndGore . . .

Just left my local #AMC after watching #Sisu2: Road to Revenge, which IMO is as good in my opinion as Sisu1.

Sisu is about a "legendary" Finnish commando -- Aatami -- who endures & overcomes unfathomable odds to defeat his enemies & achieve his goals.

In the Sisu1, his goal was to protect & retrieve the gold he found mining from Nazi looters.

In Sisu2, it's to dismantle his home -- where his family was killed -- which is now in Soviet territory back across the border to Finland and to kill the man who was responsible for the murder of his family in the process.

Sisu 1 & 2 most closely resemble the #BruceWillis in #DieHard series in terms of the determination of the hero in enduring extreme hardships in order to overcoming his opposition.

Some scenes are excruciating & cringe-worthy, while others are laughable but they all combine to make for a very entertaining movie.

I'd give both Sisu 1 & 2 at 7 out of 10.

#Wicked #Movies

I watched #Wicked2 at my local #AMC yesterday.

Apparently, the movie is designed to follow the musical (rather than the original movie). I've seen Wicked (the musical) on stage but it was a very long time ago & I've forgotten most of what I saw.

Most people have not seen the theatrical version of Wicked, they've only seen the original movie & they probably will be as confused as I was by what they saw in Wicked2 as I was.

So, what I liked least about Wicked2 were the superficial tie-ins to the original; none of which I'll reveal here for fear of "spoiling" the movie for those who haven't seen it yet but the differences are obvious to anyone who has seen the original.

I also thought that Elphaba was depicted as too naive & inept in attempting to expose the Wizard & save the animals.

And lastly there were too many transitions, especially near the end, that were never adequately explained or developed.

So, FWIW, I'd only rate Wicked2 a 5 of 10 vs a 7 for the Wicked1. 🤷‍♂️

Just bought a ticket to see #Wicked2 at my local #AMC @ 1pm today.

It was the 1st & only ticket for that screening sold so far. 🤷
