Yes, he rides a seahorse. And it whinnies. Seriously, it was fine until it whinnied.

Interestingly weird. Reminds me of the Chinese movies....no happy Hollywood endings.
My 15 year old and his friends watched Into The Spider-Verse the other night. They absolutely loved it.

Wife made me watch BirdBox last night...
Typical "horror" movie with all the usual twists and turns. I figured out the ending about 20min into it.
Then we watched "Black Mirror - BanderSnatch" on Netflix.
VERY cool concept and made by the Black Mirror folks.
It's a movie, but you have pop up choices to make along the way that affects the outcome much like the old choose your own adventure novels.
It has multiple endings, and loops back on itself, but adds in bits and pieces along the way. Lots of Black Mirror easter eggs as well.
Took us over 2hrs to make the "right" choices to see the "good" ending.
Not a spoiler, but if you watch it, at the part when he asks for a sign, choose Netflix.
The result is hilarious!

Speaking of Netflix, just watched Annihilation; which is produced by them.
The film tries to put you in somewhat of a trance through the whole thing and by the end you're like hmmm.......I hate spoilers so that's all I'm going to say.
All in all, definitely worth a watch.

Watched Ready Player One and really enjoyed it as a popcorn movie. A Spielberg homage to GenX 80's pop culture wrapped up in a package to appeal to newer generations.
I watched the new Death Wish with Bruce Willis. I had low expectations and it wasn't as bad as I expected. Basic stuff, but it's interesting to see a modern interpretation in the context of the current culture and social media.
YMMV.

Lots of reports of people walking out of that movie before it finishes.
Rotten Tomatoes critics' score of 9% and viewer rating of 28%.
The problem I have with RT is that they've been equally bad at predicting the good ones for my taste. Maybe we need a Fresh Ripe Tomatoes site?
I find the viewer ratings to be pretty good and the critic ratings to be useless.

Got to see a classic youth 80's movie again recently, Cloak and Dagger. I remember how great it was when I was young. It would never get made today, their loss. https://film.avclub.com/cloak-dagger-is-one-of-the-darkest-kids-movies-of-the-1824998038
3000 Miles to Graceland is a great popcorn (adult) action movie that's now getting the cult appreciation it deserves imo. http://www.theaceblackblog.com/2011/02/movie-review-3000-miles-to-graceland.html
Sicario: Day of the Soldado was great. Looking forward to the next one.
Super Troopers 2 was pretty average. Lots of Canadian jokes.
I had completely forgotten that they had made a third movie in the Abrams Star Trek reboot - Beyond. I really enjoyed it. Too bad the series sounds dead at this time.
Doctor Strange finally came on TV (Space channel). I really enjoyed it. Supposedly another is coming.
