Last movie you watched......

I enjoyed it — I thought Ryan Gossling did a good job portraying a man who always seemed uncomfortable with the huge spotlight that shown on him after the moon landing.

And I am a huge Claire Foy fan. She stole every scene she was in.

 

Night Shift. Hadn't seen it in 30 plus years. Michael Keaton is hilarious and this is the only time I thought Shelley Long was sexy.

 

Agree on both. Bigly.

 

Wasn’t the Fonz in that, too? I haven’t seen it in forever.

 

Yep. He's the lead.

 

Don't know. Her and Hanks in a missionary during The Money Pit comes to mind.

 

Long looked pretty nice in her prehistoric garb in "Caveman," the goofy 1981 Ringo Starr-Dennis Quaid movie. I saw that in the theater as a kid when I really didn't know anybody in the movie except Starr, Barbara Bach (oh, yeah, and John Matuszak also). Thought the blond was really fetching, then a couple years later started watching "Cheers," then saw "Caveman" again on cable and was like "OMG, that was Shelley Long."

 

Was Caveman the movie where the only word spoken was “shit,” and it was the last scene of the movie?

 

Not exactly. There was one character in the movie -- played by Evan Kim, who starred in the karate movie sketch that ended "Kentucky Fried Movie" -- who spoke English and was constantly trying to teach it to the cavemen, in contrast to the caveman language they made up. There was a scene where the group found a pit of some substance and were poking at it and picking it up saying it was tar, one of the group started laughing and saying it was "doodoo" and Kim's character picked up and said in confirmation "shit." That was in the middle of the movie though, not the end, and Kim uttered a few other English words during the film.

 

Saw Wolfs last night. Obviously Clooney and Pitt together is a lot of fun, but that movie made no sense and was way too long in places.

 

The Substance is a body-horror film that's 100% about super cool gross-out special effects. Not about scaring the viewer or plot or (despite what you might read) anything deeper. Just super cool gross-out special effects which are - admittedly - super cool.

 

Finally caught Challengers last night. A little over the top at times but overall well done. My takeaway had less to do with the love triangle and more to do with the ruthless personality one needs to succeed in a cutthroat individual sport like tennis, and how that seeps into your personal life. Zendaya did a hell of a job portraying that personality trait. Everything was well set up from the beginning, and some well placed Easter eggs from the first hour or so really paid off at the end. I could give or take the ambiguous ending, but overall, a fun watch.
