Fargo 9/10

This movie, God. After watching, I couldn't get it out of my mind and one hour later I was rewatching. The way the makers mix the chaos happening with little mundane things like watching TV, having dinner, it just denotes masterpiece. Little things like a bloody psychopath killer being shocked by a woman on tv breaking the news of her pregnancy to her lover, the coen brothers are worth their onions.

And they actually led people to go digging around Fargo in search of the briefcase, because of the whole true story thing, haha, incredible.
Oh ya? Ya? Ya!!

So, I decided to read the Stephen King's IT novel while also rewatching the 2017 IT. Believe me, if the movie is anywhere as the 27 years past time of their first encounter with pennywise from the novel, we are in for some deep sh*t and no big movie is opening 3 weeks after IT premieres.

I have the novel but I have not been able to get myself to read it. It's close to 800 hundred pages and that makes it too bulky to be lugging around.

The Hitman's Bodyguard - 7.7/10

If the word "Moderfucker" was a bell, then Samuel L. Jackson is the ring.
This is the 2nd action movie that has some really deep insights of love amid the fireworks, far better than some romantic movies that are just septic tanks of emotions.

Ryan Reynolds feels at home in this flick playing the guy that thinks he always had things figured out. SLJ on the other hand breaking the ice as always.


Following my rule: what first, check ratings later.
This rule was because Rotten Tomato and their weird ratings, and as always they did not disappoint.
They gave this movie a rating of 46%,
But 90% of Google users liked this movie.

It begs the question, Does RT ratings really matter?


Is it just me that thinks they were trying to shade the Jaguar? I mean how could you pick a Ford hatchback over a Jaguar if you planning on beating the traffic with guys that whats to kill you?

recommend some of his movies
Quentin Tarantino is not the kind of director you recommend some of his movies, you recommend all of his movies, he's only done 9 and they all good.

Give it a try, the opening sequence would be way to familiar with you grin, Stephen king explains details to the minutes so it might get to boring but if you keep reading, believe me you would appreciate all the details and Easter egg in it(pun intended). Currently at The Six Calls Chapter

That's going to take some time, muchacho. I am still reading Duma Key by King which is VERY interesting, and in between I still have two unread Dean Koontz novels which I have to work my way through before settling down to face 'IT'. It's a long, sweet ride! cheesy

Not all WB movies flopped this year but rather underperformed. Disney also had some flops this year but they weren't blockbuster movies.

So, I decided to read the Stephen King's IT novel while also rewatching the 2017 IT. Believe me, if the movie is anywhere as the 27 years past time of their first encounter with pennywise from the novel, we are in for some deep sh*t and no big movie is opening 3 weeks after IT premieres.




Jumanji is actually Sony. John Wick 3 is a huge financial success bro, the only outright flops here are Godzilla, Dark phoenix, Alita because of their huge budgets. The rest either underperformed or simply broke even.

I rather remove hobbs and Shaw. It Chapter 2 is going to be a huge success if everything goes well with the reviews. You see in setting a release date for a movie certain things are considered. IT was the movie that made September a movie month, the Joker is opening close to Halloween and this movies are under the horror targeted months of the year. Like I said before we would have to wait and see what might/might not happen.
Where can I get the novel?

Personally, don't follow RT ratings "most especially for the MCU"

The hateful eight 8/10

Quentin Tarantino is a master of dialogue, tension, story progression and aestheticization of violence (to this man, 90% of the human body is made of blood cheesy ) and the remaining 10% is made of crazy, satirical, dark humor. I've never watched a QT character I didn't like, even the borderline evil ones.
Are you on a QT marathon?

Au contraire, mom ami. cheesy

I love free stuff. I installed KODI and numerous multimedia addons so that I don't have to subscribe to HBO, Netflix, DirectTV, et al. Not bragging or anything, but I coded and sold a program that facilitates internet search on pirated stuffs. I'm currently working on another one right now, and it's looking promising so far.

The novel actually tries to stay on topic, but each chapter can take you from the present to 27 years to the future or past. Mehn, that book is helluva complicated, one minute you are reading something from 1965 next paragraph it is 1992 grin grin.

Though all his books are intertwined to "The Dark Tower" novel, screenshot 1&2 are his interconnected universe.

Screenshot 3 spoilers alert; Dunno if they would introduce him in IT: Chapter 2 but was the reason they defeated pennywise, so don't get too surprised when you see the turtle

But Stephen King's one hell of a talented author. Creating his own novel multiverse is no small feat.

After rewatching Avengers Endgame.

I have to rearrange my cinematic priorities.

My best fight scene is no longer Lepizig Airport


That Endgame finale is mad!

All the Avengers get 7.5/10 for their efforts (special mention to Ant Man, Hulk, Black Widow, Scarlet Witch and Spiderman)


Captain Marvel effort was underappreciated if not for her, almost all the Avengers will be toast from the aerial bombardment, she gets 8/10

Thor for his doggedness even though he is out of shape, he gets 8.5/10

Thanos baddest guy ever liveth gets 9/10


Captain America, this guy is the epitome of endurance, even when Iron Man and Thor were down and he had no idea if reinforcement was on the way, he was still preparing to singlehandedly take on a whole battalion, he gets 9.5/10

Iron Man, I have nothing much to say, Bros take your 10/10 and be on your way.


And the director of this movie gets 12/10.
Mr koice is about Soundtrack while I am more about the directing pattern of a movie and Avengers really delivered.



But there was a lot of plot holes in this movie o!
