So do I. I remember the prototype being shown on Tomorrow's World.

I finally finished Stranger Things Season 2. The last few episodes seemed pretty much like Doom The Movie. (This is not a compliment.) And despite my hatred of the toxic nostalgia that infests too many millennials, I almost feel like Stranger Things would benefit from more nostalgic fan service. Show me more Star Wars toys and 1980s arcade games! Anyway, Season 3 isn't coming until Summer 2019.

I waited for Three Bilboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri on HBO.
Really enjoyed the outsized characters.

Just finished streaming season 6 of "The Americans" Great show, horrible ending.
I am now watching, for the 2nd time, "24", from the beginning. Some of the concepts are ridiculous. How do these guys work 24 hours a day? Anyhow the show is absolutely marvelous. As I have always said, "buy the premise, buy the package!!!

missio impossible 6... excellent, if that kinda thing appeals to you...
Oh holy ****. The emotions I’ve traversed since I found this movie on Netflix...
Now, fighting depression.
A film about David Foster Wallace!
With Jesse Eisenberg!
Ten, twenty minutes in: ugh. Sticking with it for a few more.
DFW could not have been this boring. Could not.
End of the Tour.
Goddammit. I WILL read Infinite Jest.

@Region Philbis,
My wife and I are going to see Mission Impossible 6 next Monday. I enjoy Tom Cruise, and there was a documentary of the film where he did most of the stunts himself. Very talented actor.

The End of the Tour sucked as far as I’m concerned. DFW deserves a hell of a lot better, IMO.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm was an acceptable movie based on the animated series. People actually die!
Superman Returns was a little too long but also decent. It had the same feel as the Christopher Reeve movies and Kevin Spacey was great as Lex Luthor. Brandon Routh, Henry Cavill. However, Kal Penn as one of Luthor's was laughable.

With yesterday's viewing of Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, I have seen every Marvel movie (not just the Cinematic Universe/Avengers). Spirit of Vengeance had some sort of stupid religious plot wrapped around Nicholas Cage saying loud and annoying things that were not entertaining. The first Ghost Rider was dumb but kinda tolerable. This was awful. However, it did have Idris Elba and Christopher Lambert so that's a plus, I guess.
Having completed my lists of comic book and sci-fi movies, I'll begin to work on... sigh... Pixar. I love Disney but some people elevate Pixar to mythic status. I feel like it's 50% crap just like regular Disney animated movies. Anyway, I watched Ratatouille and it was ok. It gets 1 bonus point for being Anthony Bourdain's favorite food movie.
It was Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald
Should we offer our condolences? And is that the only reason you created an account here at a2k? To let us know you seen the Fantastic Beasts sequel (hopefully in a legal fashion rather than illegally downloaded)?

Wow I've never known anyone who has seen all the Marvel movies. That's impressive. Have you seen the previews for the new animated Spider-Man movie?

I'm going to cry foul on that JC's claim. I bet he hasn't seen the infamous unreleased Roger Corman Fantastic Four (1994) A cult classic of abject terribleness if there ever was one. Or Captain America (1944)?
Well I watched 'Baby Driver'.......I'm not sure what I think. I liked the sound track....but I don't remember one of the artists....I remember the tune, just not the band's name. It's driving me a little nuts.
