It’s a sequel so there’s always the risk of not living up to the first film. In my opinion they did not disappoint. And yea it’s crazy that this sat on the shelf for so long but it was worth the wait.

I'm sure it is great. I didn't care for the first one so even though I like TC, I most likely won't go out of my way to see this one...
I just watched "Angels With Dirty Faces" for the umpteenth time. The ending always inspires discussion between me and my wife. Did Rocky Sullivan really turn yella?

Angels with Dirty Faces (1938)
Childhood chums Rocky Sullivan and Jerry Connelly grow up on opposite sides of the fence: Rocky matures into a prominent gangster, while Jerry becomes a priest, tending to the needs of his old tenement neighborhood.

The latest Bond movie - No Time To Die - is on Amazon Prime now. Planning to watch this weekend.
Last weekend we paid to watch Operation Mincemeat on Apple TV, I really enjoyed the film, a great true story of a crazy idea that worked and majorly helped turn the tide of the war in Europe. It’s said the film is very accurate in the details.
This one's got it all going on...

Xtro II: The Second Encounter (1991)
Pure B movie schlock
, equally adds up to be a fun no brain 90's watch. Xtro II very obviously jumps on Ridley Scott's 1979 slow burn Sci-Fi/horror masterpiece Alien with a fraction of the budget. Don't know I just like Xtro II for what it is. If into the genre Xtro II is worth a watch from time to time Film doesn't take itself too seriously nor should the viewer, just a bit of fun with no agenda or politics.
First Xtro (1989) is kind of weird & disturbing, even the director admits he was off his head for the duration of shooting; Tiger's, Clowns & Alien's...Watchable, yet strange.
Xtro 3: Watch the Skies , I think was direct to DVD weakest of the trilogy. Continues the same theme with no reflection to the previous films. Slightly interesting to see the demise of unmemorable character's.
n.b. Xtro 1 & 3 from memory, and that's been a while...

I need another viewing LOL. Very James Bond-esque in regards to the action and the locations within the film. Jurassic Park is my fav movie as i grew up on it. Seeing this as the "epic conclusion" put me off a bit. I feel they tried to cram in a lot of dino's / legacy cast/ the JW cast into a almost 2.5 hr movie... If this is the "end" then go all out pull a Marvel and make it a 3 hour movie LOL. All in all it has dinosaurs and action so I did enjoy it but it seems they did leave it open for future films!
Is it streaming?CGI is pretty impressive stuff.
Honestly though, I’ve heard nothing but stellar things about Top Gun Maverick. I think I will boot that one up this weekend.
IF you are a John Carpenter fan and haven't seen this one... it's time.
Gothic (1986)
A nightmare come true, it's a Ken Russel filmi, very 80's (not a bad thing). If in the mood a dam good watch...

Playing the game (Doom 3) so why not watch the films...LOL
Doom (2005)
This isn't a great film by any means, equally I like it as a fun no brainer Sci-Fi watch. competently acted & shot with weak storyline. Is a fun watch and remains to be so...
Doom: Annihilation (2019)
I think was just a mechanism to retain the IP. Pity as you can feel the sheer hard work & effort put into the project by all concerned, with a very limited budget. I honestly think had the studio been serious this could have been a pretty decent film as it follows the lore pretty well. Want to do Doom? play the games they are a lot better LOL...

Michael Mann never disappoints. Have you seen his new series Tokyo Vice on HBO? If not, I highly recommend it if you liked Miami Vice.This one's got it all going on...

Pork Chop Express.... I love this movie. Campy, not so great acting, so-so special effects, but damn what a ride and I still watch it to this day. Good stuff!
