I watched the latest Captain America movie. It is kind of bad, I'll just let the pitch meeting do the review.

Oh, Ryan George's Pitch Meetings are TIGHT!

Not to mention this gem...

Revisited The Post and loved it. Good story, nice cinematography and lovely 70s fashion. Interaction between the politics in the nation and the politics in the news business.
@Karl Henning I have a feeling that you will like the movie.

Superb! My wallet doesn't want to know that there are sequels.

Hey Karl - well, I'm looking at the one below - just $22 (4 discs) on Amazon - having Susan first review for her interest - looks like a nice follow-up to my other set. Dave

ADDENDUM: For subscribers of PBS - this show is available on their website - will try on my 4K HDTV but not sure what streaming resolution may be used - I'd suspect as least BD HD but would hope for 4K.

For $5.00 each, we received a medium-sized bottle of pop, a medium-sized box of popcorn, and a ticket for...

Certainly the stunts are amazing, although there are some holes in the plot, and the first act is probably too long.

But a fun movie for $5.00! Oh, yes, small-town Ohio does have prices from yesteryear*, not just the atmosphere! 😇

* To be sure, in 1959, a ticket for Ben-Hur was $1.50, which was a good amount back then, but did not include pop and popcorn!

Designing Dune and Dune FX featurettes for the David Lynch movie

I watched Mountainhead, which is a smart satire of how tech billionaires will or are misusing AI at the cost of human lives for making money. Watching this right after Saltburn demonstrates the spectrum of antisocial personality disorder. The character in Saltburn is a high-functioning sociopath, while these tech bros are psychopaths. Anyway, this film feels like it could be a theatrical production since it is all set in one location.
