This will make it easier to reschedule the Boston show as now they have at least 2 on the east coast to make up

Prior to our go-live toworrow, our CEO came around handing out stress balls. I think they captured my likeness surprisingly well.

Good thing someone else got to him before I did, because if I had that little SOB would be dead

Brian Michael Rini, who claimed to be Timmothy Pitzen, charged



What would possess a person to claim that? He needs to be in jail for the rest of his life. Think what he put that poor kid's family through. How awful.

The Mrs. and our pup are visiting her bestie in Rochester, NY and I love having the house to myself of a quiet Saturday morning.

Coffee is brewing and life is good.

He’s clearly mentally ill. We can’t understand his “logic” because he doesn’t think the way we do.

He likely does need to be confined, but to a psychiatric facility.

So accurate.

Finally went to see “Us”. Pretty mediocre I should have waited for it to be On Demand

Sitting at the airport waiting for my flight.. My favorite excuse to be drinking beer at 9am.

Yep.

Shazam was pretty good.

However, there have been very few movies that I’ve had the urge to immediately go back and rewatch in quite some time.

The year the first Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises came out, I went back to see each multiple times.

Checked out the new Night Shift space at Lovejoy Wharf yesterday before the game. They did a great job.

Crazy to think how far they’ve come.

The only movie I’ve seen twice in theaters is Miracle. I’m ok with that.

I saw The Last Jedi a second time hoping by the first time was just a bad dream.

I enjoyed last years spring/summer releases

This year I’m committed to End Game, Godzilla, John Wick 3, and Toy Story 4. Want to see Pet Semetary and Hellboy as well.

The gulf between the critics score and audience score on Us really should have registered. Pretty pissed w the critics

IMO, it wasn't half the movie that "Get Out" was. And, maybe I had my analytic hat on, but I knew pretty much exactly what was going on, and figured out the exactly what happened really early. I was actually more surprised by the beginning than by the rest of the movie. I hadn't read anything about it - I'd only seen the preview - so I was pleasantly surprised to be thrust into the world of Rubik's Cubes and Karma Chameleon in the beginning.

A worthwhile watch, and I don't completely regret going to the theater for it...but I was expecting a little more, especially with "Get Out", which I loved.

I was definitely entertained by Us.

It had me laughing out loud several times.

That ending though.

Do I need to watch the previous Godzilla to get into the series? I watched the latest King Kong movie but not Godzilla because I heard it wasn’t great and Godzilla isn’t in it much.

Shazam was ok, I enjoyed it but it was slow in some parts. There was a nice surprise that left me wanting more.
