Just imagine if River Raid had an escort mission.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday! What's YOUR #LastFourWatched?

Jurassic World Dominion
Mississippi Burning
The Hunt for Red October
Ronin

First time for Jurassic World Dominion. Better than Fallen Kingdom. Mississippi Burning a reminder of how bad it can get. Ronin is a reliable watch.

It seems like lawyers should never use Ai. Wouldn't a lawyer be liable for unreliable or untrue statements from Ai that are signed off by the lawyer?

That's no flying car, that's an aircraft using a car as an undercarriage.

I need to explore his filmography. He was good in "Ronin."

My only sort-of issue with "A Princess of Mars" is John Carter is depicted as rushing into action and never being wrong. A little too perfect. But the world building is amazing.

My favorite performance from Thomas Haden Church is as Dwayne LaFontant from "Over the Hedge." He puts so much energy out there. He steals the show.

For days after watching that, my wife and I would quote it.

I haven't seen all his movies, but I haven't seen a bad Liev Schreiber performance.

Sphere wasn't great, but he was.

People think of Adam's Family or Street Fighter a lot with Raul Julia. But I think of his role in Moon Over Parador.

Ernie Hudson in Congo.

He was fantastic. The film was uninspiring.

Weren't there a lot of people who considered Bin Laden a threat over a year before 9/11? He can't claim special knowledge.

Tomorrow Never Dies

So I haven't seen all the Bond films, but this one is good. Great opening sequence, plausible villian, Bond with a heart, Michelle Yeoh as Chinese agent Wai Lin, and an excellent closing sequence with the Royal Navy, Wai Lin, and Bond in the thick of it.

Twice Upon a Time (1983)

A great animated film. Legal battles kept it out of video stores.

Starring former Garfield voice Lorenzo Music, many other great voice talents, and a unique style.

Watch it if you get the chance.

Agree. I was a fan of the book before the movie. "A Princess of Mars" is a great title. You get a location hinting sci-fi and a mention of a major character evoking intrigue.

"John Carter" could be a bio-pic of the guy who invented velcro.

Still, I love the movie and have watched it several times.

"Rocks and Shoals" is one I particularly like and "Sacrifice of Angels" was excellent.

My daughter loves alfredo, but not fettuccine. So I've had to work on a few different ways of making my own. She likes it with heavy parmesan flavor and a lot of garlic.

DS9 is my favorite Trek series. Probably season 6 is the best season. Some amazing episodes.
