Last Movie Seen

Started the show Task. It's okay but it's pretty impossible to watch Mark Ruffalo, especially in something where he is supposed to be some kind of every man when he's a whiny rich fuck irl.
The Throbber has never understood the appeal of Mark Ruffalo. He’s a cunt and an adequate actor at best.
 
🦬 looks like he only took the role because it matched his exact physique as the time.
 
Watched Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning last night. Ended up buying the digital version which is a bit of a waste because unlike Predator or Die Hard (the other movies I “own” digitally), I’ll probably not watch this again. For the record, Predator is always downloaded on my phone for plane watching.
A couple of critiques of the last 2 movies:
I did enjoy the bringing back of old characters that tied into the original movie and the suspense, even though you know Cruise will succeed, is impressive.
So here is my final MIPR (Mission Impossible Power Rankings):

The Tom Cruise Jesus narrative was a bit much.
Agree, Hannah Waddington has huge milk cannons.
 
Task struck me as another show trying too hard to be edgy and strange while ending up boring and pedantic

It's kind of like Mare of Eastown, which has the same creator so makes sense. Not bad, but kind of also a way less interesting True Detective season 1 type with a northeast vibe. I don't know what it is but there's something that always doesn't feel right when it's a bunch of rich people trying to portray poor or almost even Americans these days.

The Pennsylvania depression vibe, he has not even come close to hitting as well as Mare and Out Of The Furnace.
The biggest issue is the characters and their acting. Compare that to Mare and her circle or Bale and Affleck (and Woody Harrelson) in OotF. There just isn't enough here over 2 hours in.
It's possible that maybe like Whooley I just look at @RuffaloSoldier and his stupid fat puffy visage and want to change the channel. I guess him and Leo just want to play dumpy guys that track down White Nationalists!!!

Wow, full cast reveal and 2026 greenlight for filming. Adam Driver maybe the only leading actor in this I don't hate.
It's important that this gets made before Michael Mann gets too old to make it himself.
I have a feeling that they are going to tone this way down from the book.
 
Chopping Mall. Security robots go berserk after a storm while employees are locked in. Cheesy 80s horror movie.
 
Task got a bit better with the latest episode except now you have situations so cringe where a drug lord is complaining about methheads being racist to him. You have that whole interrogation scene with black chick.
Then you have Mark Dumpalo where it's clear why he signed up for this, and it's not because of the success of Mare of Easttown.
 
Agree Task has improved and is watchable despite cuntface Ruffalo. I laughed out loud during the construction scene because I knew where it was going and how much modern TV and movies are just cramming that shit down your throat.
The Alien show got better and calmed down the sparks in dark hallways but then took a massive shit again. I feel like a TV show above like a B- now is too much to ask for.

I'm going to watch Gung Ho and the Aliens show.
It's kind of like your point months ago, we all need TV shit to talk about together and the execs have fucked it all up.
 
Tulsa King season 3 dropped. Usually the toughest season to keep a show going. We'll see
I watched American Made a hidden gem with Tom Cruise as a CIA pilot flying coke for the Medellin Cartel and then guns to the Contras. The Cartel said send us the guns and we'll send the Contras the coke. If you wonder why the Contras never fought there it is
Whole thing was based out of Arkansas with an unknown governor named Clinton running cover. Everyone knows about RR and former CIA chief Bush but Clinton is less well known
So in 92 you had Clinton v Bush and the CIA couldn't lose. TITTT
 
Out of Control. An open faced turd sandwhich on Wonder bread teen sex comedy from 1984
Pass on this one. Lame plot. A spin the bottle scene that goes on way too long. But Betsy Russell is what redeems this a little bit.

You have the funniest algorithm of all-time.

I do watch the big name movies here and there. But when I am bored and want to kill 90 minutes, an 80s teen sex comedy that I have never seen usually fits the bill. As October rolls around, 70s-80s horror/slasher flicks that I have never seen will fill up the time.

American Made is a really good movie.

I'm noticing a pattern
