Star Wars: The Force Awakens Final Trailer Review

Preface

Alright, I hope you have mentally prepared yourselves to not only watch this trailer, but also comprehend the statement I’m about to make:
- I actually watched 90 long minutes of Monday Night Football to see this trailer.
That is dedication folks!
And it paid off because this may be my favorite of The Force Awakens trailers thus far.

Bridge of Spies Review

Preface

Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks take on a political drama in the Cold War? Yeah, let’s watch this!

Preface

The Gift is a movie that I’ve wanted to see for more than a couple months now and I was not disappointed by it.
The Gift stars Jason Bateman, Rebecca Hall, and Joel Edgerton.
It was also written and directed by Joel Edgerton in his directorial debut. And it was a GREAT movie for a first time director.
And it’s about this couple played by Bateman and Hall who move to California and run into this weird guy Gordo (Edgerton) who went to high school with Bateman’s character. And after they start interacting with Gordo, some weird stuff starts to happen…

Preface

Man the second half of this movie was really impressive!
- And the first half was really not…
Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s French accent was good though. Didn’t see that coming!

Preface

Man, it has been a WHILE since we’ve done some TV talk here on My Movie Thoughts!
And there IS a reason for that.
Movies are great, they’re my favorite thing. Movies are also easy, they’re much less time-consuming.
TV takes a lot of time to watch. If I’m reviewing a bad movie, I just have to sit through for 90 minutes or two hours, then rant about it, and go back to the theater the next week to hopefully see something better.
With TV, I’m not gonna sit through something for 6-10 seasons if it’s mediocre just to do a review. (Unless that show is Parks and Rec, ohhhh burn!) Unless I hear great things and enjoy the first few episodes, then I’m not gonna spend my time on it, when I could be watching a bunch of movies or hanging out with my friends instead.
But…. There are still a few shows that I do watch on a week-by-week basis. The Walking Dead, and Better Call Saul.
Arrow hasn’t elevated to that category yet because I binged Seasons 1 and 2 during November of last year, and Season 3 was already about halfway over and I didn’t feel like catching up til it was on Netflix.
Well today, Season 3 is on Netflix, so here are my thoughts on a show that I DO definitely recommend you spend your time on!
- I’ll start watching Season 3 tonight then immediately regret everything I’m about to say…
