The "What's on your mind?" thread - Page 1213 - Blu-ray Forum

About to head home and need to decide what movie I'm going to watch tonight. I like to watch a really great film on Sunday. I mean we always want to watch great films but Sunday is for the Bravehearts, the Black Hawk Downs, the Bournes or Bonds. I wouldn't mind watching The Irishman for the first time but I won't start my movie until at least 9pm probably and I don't want to be up that late watching a movie.

I wouldn't mind watching a Mission Impossible film but I think I've seen Ghost Protocol, Rogue Nation and Fallout all within the last year. So, I've got a decision to make. It's not a real important decision but it's a decision nonetheless. Hmmmm

I still really need to see that, I thought I was the only one on the forum who hasn't (and also has The Netflix.)

I vote for The Irishman, then you tell me if it's as epic as people say it is, and then I'll ignore your opinion and watch it some other time.

Ah, I'll try and watch it soon and offer my opinion but at 9:02pm, I'm about to watch Munich. 2 hours and 44 minutes so will be near midnight when I finish. Of course I'll pause a time or too to get snacks

I liked that Munich.

Excellent choice as always.

I read no reviews about it before seeing it at the theater and if I remember right, the teaser trailers revealed nothing. I thought it was going to be about just the Olympics tragedy.

Only my girlfriend is authorized to use my works otherwise I will sue.

just found out my niece has the omicron COVID subvariant, she's okay, just the standard 'cold' like symptoms, but still ... I feel so sorry she got it.

I watched it before I got Netflix, it showed at a local $2 theater back in NY when it was first released. It was good, but I haven't had any interest to re-watch it. If you like organized crime-esque movies like Casino, Goodfellas, The Godfather you'll likely enjoy it.

Gold Ranger · 05-09-2022, 03:56 PM

I don't have netflix or hulu, amazon, paramount, hbo, cbs. I don't use any streaming.
Well, that's not entirely true... I do use Pandora...

Not bad better than suicide. Wanting to start the zodiac. If I can get ♉ taurus today I'd be happy wanted it before may but work got in the way.

Wanting an Asuka tat on my leg

Not sure when this was taken, it's since been torn down.

The Kennedy Theater is where I saw the original trilogy, Star Trek the Motion Picture, and The Dark Crystal.

5-year-old me went through those doors, and began a life-long addiction to George Lucas' cinematic drug.

Gold Ranger · 05-10-2022, 08:24 AM

I'm going to see my kids this weekend!
It's been far too long!
I'm so excited!

Also if you knew my girlfriend she's on the highest pedestal anyone has ever had. even if she does stalk me online

If I die publically for all the women in the world would they even care?

Respect to you, man. That's a tough job and probably requires a lot of patience.

I was once on a US military ship, having breakfast in the wardroom (officers lounge) when the Operations Officer (OPS) walks in. This guy was the definition of NOT a morning person; he’s still half asleep, bleary eyed… basically a zombie with a bagel. He sits down across from me to eat his bagel and is just barely conscious. My back is to the outboard side of the ship, and the morning sun is blazing in one of the portholes putting a big bright-a** circle of light right on his barely conscious face. He’s squinting and chewing and basically just remembering how to be alive for today. It’s painful to watch.

But then zombie-OPS stops chewing, slowly picks up the phone, and dials the bridge. In his well-known I’m-still-totally-asleep voice, he says ‘heeeey. It’s OPS. Could you… shift our barpat… yeah, one six five. Thanks.’ And puts the phone down. And then he just sits there. Squinting. Waiting.

And then, ever so slowly, I realize that that big blazing spot of sun has begun to slide off the zombie’s face and onto the wall behind him. After a moment it clears his face and he blinks slowly a few times and the brilliant beauty of what I’ve just witnessed begins to overwhelm me. By ordering the bridge to adjust the ship’s back-and-forth patrol by about 15 degrees, he’s changed our course just enough to reposition the sun off of his face. He’s literally just redirected thousands of tons of steel and hundreds of people so that he could get the sun out of his eyes while he eats his bagel. I am in awe.

He slowly picks up his bagel and for a moment I’m terrified at the thought that his own genius may escape him, that he may never appreciate the epic brilliance of his laziness (since he’s not going to wake up for another hour). But between his next bites he pauses, looks at me, and gives me the faintest, sly grin, before returning to gnaw slowly on his zombie bagel.

Waiting to see if I am right about something.
