Great choice, though her first film Little Woods was very divisive. Critics loved the film but audiences did not like it much at all. I'm interested in the rebooted Candyman, so we'll see - if that turns out good too then there's hope. It's a shame since the first film also had a great pair of directors and that movie came out pretty average. I've only ever seen it once, in theaters, and unlike a lot of MCU films, I have no real interest in returning to it. It wasn't bad, just felt like more of the same origin story stuff we've seen MCU-style over and over again. I mean, is anyone rewatching Captain Marvel with any frequency?

Whoa - I loved the show by comparison and felt Alex Garland knocked it out of the park. Very Kubrickian in filmmaking style.

Yeah, I have had little to no issue with my S8+ since whenever the phone originally came out and I got one.

Definitely do have accidental touches I find annoying and it'll pull up the sidebar or Bixby (which I don't use).

Ah, this helps too - honestly I didn't mind the curved screen, happy to go back to not curved as well.

Ah, okay, makes sense - appreciate all the info.

Not that I've noticed but I really do use my phone a lot less than the average smart phone user, I imagine. Is there an easy way to notice the burn in? I'll look for it. Also, generally speaking, what are newer phones doing that's so essential that would make someone want to upgrade at this point? Asking cause I genuinely don't know.

Indeed it is, and yet, I barely use all of its features as is. That's why I said I'm "still" on one. I'm too busy to use more of the features on my phone than I already do.

I'm still on a Samsung Galaxy S8+, love it but no real reason to upgrade yet. I'm sure I will eventually.

Interesting - definitely curious about Yellowstone. Yeah, Quarry was so good! Really was sad to see it end and cancelled.

Created and written by by Taylor Sheridan (great writer/director) - it's on my list, and I've heard good things. The wife and I just finished up Quarry, now moving on to The Outsider (still watching Cosmos: A SpaceTime Voyage as well).

That's why I included it you bastard! Pittsburgh's great. It's not Philly . . . but it deserves to be saved.

I'd like to keep Pittsburgh and resuscitate and keep Harrisburg (every new state needs a project, plus to help minorities) . . . the rest can go.

Hear hear!

Having seen both, go with the director's cut. Usually, it's what I'd go with anyway, but it's the better version of the movie in my opinion.

Yeah, this. I'm pretty sure the average person, American or not, is simply usually wrong, and probably stupid. Remember, technically speaking, 50% of the world's population is theoretically below average intelligence. And when you think the average is a low bar, there's really only one conclusion to reach about most of humanity.

Hah, I appreciate that. I'll try when it comes to your posts if/when I see them then.

I find discussing things anywhere in life (real life or not), message boards included, are a complete waste of time, so I'm resigned to becoming more and more of a lurker. As time goes on, in-depth discussions of real movies is long gone, it's quite clear, compared to when I started frequenting message boards 20 years ago when I was 14. I feel bad these days that I wasted so much of my time these past 20 years writing lengthy posts few read that are long lost to history now. I just have nothing to say anymore (or I try to hold myself back these days) because it has almost never benefited me. I wonder why I did it this long. I like Midsommar a lot, as weird as it was. That's the most that's probably worth saying.

It adds 23 minutes to the runtime and is director Ari Aster's preferred or director's cut of the film. It's better and more filled out so makes more sense - but is longer.

Yeah I know most people work this way. It is sad.

I'm not done yet - loving the game, but I think an 8.5/10 is a very good, and very well-earned score for Ghost of Tsushima.

Right now, Quarry and Cosmos: A SpaceTime Voyage, both with the wife. Both are excellent so far. Logan Marshall-Green is a fantastic actor in Quarry, and deserves more recognition than he gets after this, Upgrade, and When They See Us. I know he looks like Tom Hardy, but he's a great actor in his own right.

Yes my bad - I wish they would hit pause on MLB The Show and do a Mark of Kri game. Sorry for the mixup.

It's genuinely good! It's a game I think you'd particularly like! If the game ever comes out.

Yep, it does go a bit deeper. It helps, is all I'm saying.
