I finally watched Fantastic Beasts 2, took awhile but I finally got around to it.
I was going to go into more depth about the film, and perhaps I will later but I'm hitting the sheets in a few moments so for now I'll just say this, they made a HUGE mistake blacklisting Johnny Depp. He does a fantastic job in the film, he makes the film far better than the first film but they tossed him over something petty, stupid move, very stupid.
If they ever go after King, well they tried to due to one scene in Doctor Sleep, I'd really lose it.
Anywho, I'm hititng the sheets and praying for sleep, the heat came back even though its fall now.
I really dislike California as time goes on, horrible weather.

What Do you Mean about Going After King about One Scene in Doctor Sleep? Many saw the little boy scene in Doctor Sleep and wrote King off as a monster and wanted him banned from Hollywood, there's a new war on the freedom of artistic expression, a war I would prefer to see my side win. Time will tell... Nothing really to worry about just yet, King seems pretty safe. Sadly, Depp wasn't but he may have hit a woman, and that's a little different than what King did, ya know? Personally, I stand by Depp and I want him back in Hollywood now, but Depp is a more complicated matter, one that isn't suitable for this board. The King thing is since this is where we come to pay respect to one of the best writers alive at the moment, one of, there are quite a few but he's up there pretty high.

I Sorry Deviancy I Dont Remember what Little Boy Scene you mean...I don't have A Good Memory. To be fair, I've seen the movie about 10 times, so I have the whole film in my head, while I don't really read much anymore, black on white hurts my eyes. The scene I'm referring to happens early into the story when they kidnap the little boy who is a baseball player and take him to a farm like area and Rose tortures and kills him, and Abra witnesses the whole thing in her mind. Personally, I thought the scene was brilliant, it vilifies Rose and makes her a total evil person that needs to be put down, had it been an adult instead of a child, wouldn't have had the same impact. There's a reason for that but I won't get into that now. Speaking of kids though, Facebook has been out for hours, so a lot of kids must be bored. Facebook is saying it was an "oopsie", but I did a little digging, looks like they were hacked, they'll never admit to that though, would make them look weak. Anywho, I just watched Fantastic Beasts 2 again, probably my favorite movie I've seen this year next to Cruella, it has the same charm the HP films had, but that the first FB film didn't have. The film actually left me torn, Gellert, the "bad guy", actually has good intentions but just the wrong way of fixing things, which is why he has to be stopped. Rowlings, she's up there with King, just not as versatile, she can only really do fantasy while King can mix it up.

Yea i Was Wonderin About Facebook too bc mines Not Working it Wont Let Me in There. I Go in Everyday an Talk With My Friends but I Wonder Why it Got Hacked That is Mean. Facebook suffered a huge outage today, so many are calling it a "historic outage", and it kind of was since they also own Instagam and the outage took that site down as well, which means hundreds of millions of people were unable to use their two favorite sites, and those are global sites. What did I do during the outage, I tried to explain to a lot of upset members what was going on. The pandemic just made social media stronger so I'd say its safe to say its here for a long time, way after we're gone from this planet. Going back to Doctor Sleep, it may be my favorite King film so far, and that's saying a lot since I grew up on King films. Ewan has a lot to do with it, very good actor and he kind of is what I picture Danny looking like as an adult. And I have no clue where they found the actor who played Jack, but he looked an awful lot like Nichcolson used to, so that was a cool find because it wouldn't have worked if he looked too different than Nicholson since Nicholson is who people picture when they think of Jack. No offense to those who prefer the tv movie, but Webber was no Jack Torrance, Nichsolson nailed it. Yes, the film didn't have as much depth as the novel but Polannski is more about shock value than depth, imo. Great director, just a far different style than many other direcors. Anywho, its sleepy time. Lets see if Facebook is still working tomorrow, should be fine but but if it was hackers, which I doubt, they will try again.

I'm just finishing Costner's Robin Hood, been awhile since I've seen it and it hasn't aged too badly, but Rickman is the true star of the film, he was a sexist pig but he brought a lot of the levity to the film that Costner tried to do but failed to do, Costner was still good in the film however and he worked well with Slater, they almost came off like real brothers. The studio, if I recall correctly, made the right move and put Robin Hood out a month or two before T2, if I'm right about the time line, it was a smart move since while many studios like to compete with summmer blockbusters, there was no competing with T2, it was easy to tell before it was even released that it was going to dominate based on the trailers.
Ah, T2, I've seem it so many times and I still have no idea how a robot developed feelings, and in the latest they try to explain it in more detail by saying they just adapt and by adapting it just happens, it still doesn't make any sense. Oh, and guess what just came on, Dark Fate... amusing... kinda.

Watched the Chocolate Factory with Depp today, seen it eons ago and decided to give it another go. It may be one of the few Burton/Depp films I'm not that into. Its a fun film but I dunno, Depp seemed to be somewhere else at times in some scenes. Intentional? Perhaps. I mean he was supposed to be loonie and out of touch with the real world, so acting like being somewhere else is a possibility. Alice In Wonderland would be a good hint to see if that's a possibility because his character in that film is supposed to be out of his mind as well. Regardless if it was intentional or unintentional, I do prefer it over the original. Alice In Wonderland tomorrow, may as well do one more Burton/Depp film before moving on to a new actor/director combo. Its kind of pricey still but that's because of who owns iy, that studio is always expensive and they don't cut prices in half like most studios. Not naming names... that would be mean.

Finished Predator 2 a few hours ago, now I'm watching the original Child's Play. Am I the only one who prefers Predator 2 over the first? Dizzy the masses love the Squid thing, its all the rage right now, even drag queen shows are doing their own spin on it now. I read about it, haven't seen it yet, it sounds like Battle Royale or the Hunger Games with a twist... doesn't sound all that fresh.

Not right now, but I just finished watching the short series "The Haunting of Hill House."
Hands-down this is the best thing I've seen on Netflix in a while.
