The Eyes Have It posted:The Nicolas Cage film Next has really poor ratings but I really enjoyed it. It's about a gambler who has the ability to see the future, but only like two minutes at a time. It goes in unexpected directions. I was coming here to post this. It is not a good movie by any stretch of the imagination. And I hate the "twist". But I love the overall concept.

teen witch posted:Good god was your sister made of steel? We read the book and watched the movie once in our fifth grade class and both book and movie turned into a room of children weeping. I read it in the 4th grade, and I think it was for class. It absolutely broke me as a kid, and even now, in my 40s I can still recall being devastated. The sequel Summer of the Monkeys was much more light hearted. Also, as a lark I decided to look it up on amazon, and it showed up on a list of Frequently Purchased Together along with Old Yeller and Bridge to Terabithia in some demented Childhood Trauma pack. Throw in Shiloh for good measure.

teen witch posted:Just finished 1990s The Rookie, which is probably someone’s favorite but absolutely not mine. First Eastwood movie and perhaps another three decades until I watch another one. Maybe I’ll watch the monkey ones, I don’t know. Are there a cornucopia of slurs in the monkey movies? Slurs in a Clint Eastwood movie? Yeah, almost definitely. While the monkey movies are comedies, they are comedies from the 70s featuring Eastwood, so yeah, offensive language is almost guaranteed and also IIRC there are some rapey overtones. Maybe Cline Eastwood is not the star you want to follow. As for Julia, yeah he's something else. Isn't he playing a German in The Rookie?
