Sam's Thread of Movie Lists and Chit Chat (w/Jake)

[Uncle Sam]

1. Mortal Kombat ★★

My glorious return. I thought Kano was funny in spurts and I enjoyed the spinning hat spot.

1. Sound of Metal ☆☆☆☆
2. Godzilla vs Kong ☆☆☆
3. Nomadland ☆☆☆
4. Mortal Kombat ☆☆
5. The Little Things ☆☆
6. Raya And The Last Dragon ☆☆
7. Judas And The Black Messiah ☆☆

The hat spot was cool.

I'm not sure if I've missed going the cinema as much as I thought. First Cow and The Human Voice tomorrow, maybe they'll WOW me.

[Uncle Sam]

I'll be seeing First Cow in a few hours, the trailer for which I showed my girlfriend and made it look analogous to that Lucky Horse or whatever that's being advertised on telly. You know, a real lightweight, 'feelgood' sort of thing. One of us is going to be let down.

Did the moral of Raya and the Last Dragon - "You've got to trust people who repeatedly betray you-- huh, they've got a gun pointed at you? Sounds like you should trust them even harder" - strike you as really odd too?

[Y 2 Jake]

Charmed Horse? Dream Horse? The Toni Collette Joint. I can remember the name. I'll get back to you when I've seen it.

I'm old enough now that both my daughters dozed off with me. So none of us remember Raya but we're all looking forward to Surge, starring Ben Whishaw.

[Y 2 Jake]

My first born is now 18 and gives me migraines. But at least she like independent cinema.

[Y 2 Jake]

Her boyfriend has a surname for a forename (Jackson - with an X).

So you'll be seeing me in the newspapers soon, if that cunt calls me bro one more time.

Jaxson Ryker | WWE

Does he walk with Elias? I was today years old when I first found out that actual human people spell the name Jackson with an X.

[Y 2 Jake]

I'm only 18 months shy from finding out it has been a first name, and secondly and incorrectly spelt first name, for 19 years now.

To be fair, the bro thing is new, and if anybody is the abuser in the relationship it's my daughter. Which as a father, is how I would prefer it.

1. First Cow ★★★
2. Mortal Kombat ★★

First Cow wowed me so gently that it took me a week to remember I had to post a review.

My first born is now 18 and gives me migraines. But at least she like independent cinema.

I'd say this makes me feel old but I've got a herniated disc and an offer in on a house so, you know, all of our lives have changed. And if wrestling's taught me anything, it's that I can absorb much more extensive spinal damage, develop a much more significant painkiller addiction and die prematurely. Inspirational.

The most interesting thing about this thread is that Jake has an adult daughter. I always thought he was about my age (then again he technically could be my age and still have an adult daughter)
