Kong
The wife and I decided to go see Kong: Skull Island after church this morning, so here's my take on yet another re-boot of the classic monster movie.
This movie seems to focus more on the special effects/ action than an actual story, but I'm pretty sure that's what most people will expect.
The story itself seemed rushed... rushed that is that they trying to get to Kong island as fast as possible.
This gives little time for the characters development, but they are entertaining to watch as they are introduced throughout the beginning. The film is shot well, beautiful landscapes and backdrops for the action scenes. Really dug the early 70's music soundtrack!
Overall, if you just want action with giant monsters, you'll get it here. But if your expecting an Oscar worthy story, you better seek something else.
Logan is next on our must see list amongst several others.
I felt a disturbance in the force...Morgan has gone back to the dark side.
I was wondering how long it would take before he would abandon his peaceful ways, and sure enough...it took the death of his young protege, Benjamin to spark some of that old madness that we saw a few seasons back.
Can Morgan come back from the brink?...and it seems that the old Carol is back to lead the Kingdom into battle
Morgan and Carol at the Kingdom. Rick trying to get everyone else into an alliance. This isn't going to end well for somebody!! There's a logistical problem tho...firearms are scarce. Is there a promise to be broken to the women with the weapons??
Well the only other's that come close to being armed like Negan's camp is the Oceanside group. And they are all pissed that he (Negan) killed their men...yep, it's about to get uglyOriginally Posted by Blueline

Logan
Caught this movie last night with family...highly recommend it! It's the perfect finale to the Wolverine trilogy. The story opens in near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X in a hide out on the Mexican border. But Logan's attempts to hide from the world and his legacy are up-ended when a young mutant arrives, being pursued by dark forces.
Logan also introduces an heir to the screen in Laura (X-23,) a young female clone of Wolverine with his claws, healing factor and fierce fighting skills. This is the first R rated in the series and rightfully earns it with the high body count and grisly impaled bad guys. A must see for any X- Men fans
The Walking Dead. Two episodes left. Last night was simply just stalling!! Get on with it.
YeahJoe...
Wonder how far Sasha gets in Negan's compound it's a suicide mission
It seems like The Walking Dead has it's rhythms: a lot of slow, meandering build-up, punctuated by the occasionally effective character story or sudden act of horrific violence.
Finally caught up and watched the season finale of SIX.... WTF?really after everything Rip went through
I was waiting for you to comment about Rip so I didn't give away the ending. My reaction was the same as yours.

Walking Dead's next to last episode moved slow even for a "Calm before the Storm" story line. And, who's the "little birdie" whispering to Negan about Rick?
I think it's the junkyard "Heapsters". Not trusting her anyway.
Had to work last night Joe
Well Joe, I'm now caught up on TWD. So now that Rick has the artillery (thanks Ocean Side) and his army has come together it's time to end this! Only problem is, Negan seems to know it and has some plans of his own. Who tipped off the Saviours?? This is what we have been waiting for... and the wait appears to be over.
I'm ready for Sunday now
Sniper: Into the kill zone
Looks interesting, airs tomorrow on the History channel at 9/8c
Due to conflict in the time, I'll be recording it though.
Don't want to miss the season finale of The Walking Dead
So, on TWD, do we get to see any action tonight or will it be 1 1/2 hours of buildup to a 'cliffhanger' for next season?
Well Ron, they promised no cliff hanger...we'll seeSo, on TWD, do we get to see any action tonight or will it be 1 1/2 hours of buildup to a 'cliffhanger' for next season?
As far as favorite movies go I lean toward World's Fastest Indian. Looking back at All in the Family, I watched that show mainly for Sally Struthers. She was cute as the proverbial button. Hollywood used that show, and many others like it, to help shape our thinking at the time.
Even tho Readers Digest has done an article on Oak Island I still wonder whether it's legit even tho people have been digging around there as long as they have. My reasoning is how could someone have hidden something by hand THAT well so long ago that modern man is having so much trouble locating it with modern equipment TODAY? What could they have known then that all these people since have not been able to figure out? And how were they able to keep the water out back then to get the treasure hidden so well modern man can't locate with high powered equipment today? I can't be the only one wondering these things.

Beware of liberals posing as Americans.
Well...WD fan's sorry to say I'm a little frustrated with the way that went.
Lots of mysteries going on here. Where's Gregory? Where did he head off to? Where does Dwight actually stand? Who's side is he on? Michonne is badly hurt. The "Heapsters" are indeed traitors to Rick.
Eugene created some Negan suspicion. An all out war is coming!
And.....we finally got to see Shiva the Tiger in action.
