The One remake will have none of the charm and will be 2 and a half hours long.

Leguizamo is awesome in Violent Night

Yea Violent Night was like right on the edge of the good/great border and just didn't quite make it over to great. It was a fun movie but not necessarily one that I see as a yearly favorite or a future cult classic.

I dunno why Leguizamo has so much goodwill with me, since as far as I can tell, I've never actually liked a movie he's in, but I'm always pleasantly surprised when he shows up.

The opening of the pest is one of the most aggressively unpleasant sequences ever recorded to film

He's never the worst thing in a movie and never the reason it's bad. Also, his Tybalt was loving great. He's also just pretty personable and likeable in interviews, which probably helps.

He shows up in everything and is pretty good, he just can’t lead a film.

I just watched Dungeon and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves and have to say the action scenes were great. Some really memorable fights. Here's one of them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJSg-DruIWk

That's why I thought it was a safe one to post. There's alot of meta stuff about that character basically being the DM that I also thought was funny. Just wanted to show the weirdly good choreography in some fantasy movie. When I grew up fighting in fantasy movies....just sucked. Well, outside of LotR I guess.

A lot of what people comment on in the D&D movie is just how fiction works. Put a bog standard mentor character in a D&D movie and suddenly people are commenting on how clearly the GM put their GMPC in to help the party, stuff like that. To be clear: I liked the movie, I thought the action and heist stuff was clever and enjoyable, it's good, it didn't deserve to tank. In 15 years it's gonna be a lot of 25 year olds favorite movie.

A few of the stunt choreographers also worked on the 300 sequel, which had some sick fights despite not being very good.

Watched "The Ballerina" (Netflix) over the weekend and really dug it. It's more crime thriller, than a full on action movie, but what action there is really works. The cuts and editing are more chaotic than seen in (most) recent films but I thought it added to the intensity and scrappiness of the fights. About halfway though Kill Boksoon as we speak and really digging it as well.
