* Did you watch a film last night (on Blu or DVD), and what was it? *

Twenty-five days and it's Christmas. Black Friday is gone, the Nightmare before Christmas (Halloween) is gone, Cyber Monday (today) is gone, now we're slowly getting ready for that tree, the Christmas tree, and with it all what it truly means. ...The place where you put the gifts under, the decorations, the lights and the fake snow and the angels sing.
You can put the nativity there too, with Marie, Joseph, the three mouseketeers, and the star above and the little baby Jesus in his wooden berceau. ...The small animals, troubadours of the time. Christmas music is coming too.

Me, I lost the effervescence a long time ago; circumstances killed my spirit forever. I'm done with the decadence of the human empire; this is the time for the new children, the newborns and the young ones. It's life, and there are 7.35 billion people on Earth.

Last night I watched this ::



Based on a true story. The Du Pont family is one the five richest/most powerful families of the entire world.


______

That Du Pont guy, John du Pont, he's a strange animal. But he's not the only one strange rich guy; Donald Trump, Georges Bush, tra-la-la ...the list will fill the museum of the strangest human animals of the planet.
Anyway the film is reasonably sync with the real events from what the director could possibly do with it (some stuff had to be tweaked around in time), the actor's performances look convincing enough, and the entire "slab" is one of of the strangest swimming pools around...way of speech, depending of people's own point of view on all this affair and the sports funding. ...Yeah, sports.

What this film did to me is to research. To research above and below the boundaries of the human's capitulation.
Many of you have already saw it, and others not; last night I just did. And before and after I did I was goggling around, and learning more about it and beyond.

Overall score (film only): 70 ...Technically (picture & sound) it is fine.
...Outside the film and in real life surrounding the events: Strange fascination on human behavioral condition.

Last word(s): @ the end he lost his cool (he didn't have anymore), and it's amazing what money can save you from and how he was perceived by the police who wouldn't arrest him in his own house. You have to search for what he did and got away with! ...All because he could afford the best lawyers money can buy.

If you think that there is justice on this planet think again.

Once upon a time there was a flutist travelling between the stars in a Volkswagen van....

Before the night before last, I re-watched ::



That's the ultimate full disclosure package; with 'Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse' film documentary, 'Apocalypse Now' theatrical, and Redux version. ...Plus tons of interviews, etc. /// I watched the 'Redux' version (extended footage); over three hours long.

? This is one of my most atmospheric favorite flicks about war.
- Overall (all): 96.5

Last night ::



Roger shines live! If you're a Pink's fan this live music concert on Blu-ray (Dolby Atmos) is a Must!
It's simply an amazing show! ...With power abounding and spilling. ...Aurally and visually.

? Miss it and your life is simply incomplete. ...My own personal opinion of course.
- Overall (all): 96

I like black & white movies; my best pictures were black & white. I say "were" because they were all stolen from me, along with all my own music recordings, all my musical instruments (unique from my travels), my LPs, my music, my movies, and roughly $50,000 of audio electronics, plus so much more that nothing in life can ever replace them.
But the pictures, the travels souvenirs, the LPs, the musical instruments (about two dozens), is very very tough to get over; it has 40 years of life history (some 45), including my drawings, writings, the stuff of deep deep down in me. ...Everything mint.
Also stolen from me where family souvenirs 100 years old.

Anyway, last night I revisited this:



One of my top favorite comedies. You have all seen it so you know the scoop. :b

Overall (film value/fun): 93.5

* And if someone who's reading this and haven't seen it yet; what are you waiting for!

Hi Mike, nice to see someone here once in a while. :b

Every single day I'm thinking about quitting (it feels real lonely @ times), but almost every single day I watch a movie, so I keep posting.

I was invited to go see 'Spectre' (with a supreme judge and an artist, and with both their wives) the evening of Paris' attack; Friday, November 13.
But I declined. I'll wait for it on Blu-ray.

Mike said:

We're here, but you have to slow down to see us.

Click to expand...

You can't slow down what's coming up next. We're all in it for the passion/vision/experience, and there is no predetermined speed limit.

And this looks sweet:

You really think that she would have made the cut as the new Bond? ...A robot.

* Lee, it didn't bother me...the short interludes. They were part of the message, for me. ... Roger Waters - The Wall on Blu.

Last night I revisited ::



Score (film only): 78.5 ...It's a zombie comedy, and it can be up or down...it depends. ...It was up enough for me.

___________

The night before last night (also revisited - in 3D) :::



Score (everything): 92

Completely overboard, like 'Shaun of the Dead'. But I prefer that overboard here more.
Overall (everything including the audio and the picture technical aspects; even the bass is overexposed): 81.5

1956



___________

A friend told me that he's into Sherlock on Netflix. You guys know?

I revisited this last night ::



Low production little gem ($15 million estimated).
It has some sweet moments, and it has some violent ones too, very.

Overall (film and technical aspects): 85

I like 'Brave' too, in 3D (very nice; from PIXAR).

___________

Last night I watched this (in 3D) :::



Hmmm...not my bag, unfortunately; but it's only the film and the actors and the comical aspect of it all.
Technically it fared better, with a good 3D rendition and good sound effects.
But then, like music; if the recording is a superior one but the music doesn't rock your boat...are you going to buy? /// I thought so too. Anyway, it's only money, not the end of the world.

* Overall (film, and technical aspects...3D Blu): 71 (Film itself is 56, and Blu-ray 3D technical qualities is 88). ...Nobody else but me.

Last word: The actress (Evangeline Lilly); she was the main attraction.
