The Menu. While watching some ppl think it's crazy but it's not really about the thing in front of you but a satire. So frustratingly true.

'Avatar' sequel "will need to make more than $2 billion at the global box office, just to break even." According to James Cameron.

She said it 8x lol. My wife won the pool

Watched BLACK ADAM for the second time, at home this time. Still very entertaining.

Watched the Vanished.

A movie about an urban legend of vanished lighthouse keepers.

I heard the story before, but I am pretty sure everything in the movie is made up as there was no official evidence that something happened to them beyond a potential storm could have literally blown them off a cliff.

Finally saw Top Gun. It was good, but highly predictable....

Saw The Menu yesterday. Great movie, nice mix of a comedy, horror, and suspense. Had some good twists, interesting meals, as well as a fantastic cast.

Honestly worth seeing in theaters, and I rarely find myself interested enough to go these days but I had heard great things, and I wasn't disappointed.

Can appreciate that but I'm too lazy to go when at some point I'll be able to watch it from my couch in my family room and won't have to drive and park and pay a fee that I think is too much, plus the concession stand. Will wait for it to come to my TV.

I watched it on Sunday. It was indeed an enjoyable movie. Different settings vs most movies. Pretty unique IMO.

I have AMC A-List and never buy anything from concession. It basically costs me gas, time, and the monthly subscription fee of $25 or so.

That sounds great, but can you do this in the theater.

Kidding aside, like I said above, I can appreciate the theater experience but I'd rather kick back at home in my underwear, if I choose. And I don't have to go anywhere. That's just me.

I honestly feel the same way. Only reason I'm starting to go back to the theater more is because I don't want to wait for certain movies. That being said, I make sure now to only go on discount days or matinees (which are somehow now till 5pm, but I'm not complaining

).

Problem is now the movies are taking too long to come to streaming/amazon, and when they are they're now starting at buy for $19.99 only and then wait even longer for the $5 rental to finally happen.
