Nobody (2021) - 8/10. A History of Violence meets John Wick . . . and the laughs never stop. This is a film with a moral, too: "the family that slays together, stays together." Great to see those icons from the 80s back in action again, Christopher Lloyd and Michael Ironside. And Bob Odenkirk (OdenWick?) . . . an action star? Who knew? Somewhere Chekhov uttered the dictim: when you show a Claymore mine at the beginning of Act 3, it must go off by the end of the picture. Happily, this film follows that rule.

Another watch: LMAO.

I eagerly anticipated it. The very last return! maybe referring to Shane. Simply to match the lip gestures, it was inserted.

Thanks for the video it was very helpful to me.

Gotta hand it to you--that actor you hired to play him at our October meet-up last year did such a good job it kept me fooled for weeks.

The Human Jungle (1954) - 9/10. Best policier I've ever seen. That's because of the cast: Emile Meyer, Gary Merrill, Regis Toomey, Chuck Conners, Paula Raymond, and the amazing Jan Sterling (who adds a strip act--sorta--to her usual mouthy routine). But the standout performance here is the actor playing Mr. Big: Florenz Ames (WHO???). Fantastic final location climax at the Pabst Blue Ribbon bottling plant in LA.

I have to confess Roy and his totally random taste in movies isn't my best creation.

Dude you have weird fights 

That might also explain why we haven't heard from PowerRR lately. Gone . . . as though he never existed!

Artificial Intelligence?

With what I've seen lately with what Bud Light, Target, Disney, etc. did - it seems there isn't any REAL intelligence out there anyway !!!

Problem is there won't be a Leone and his collaborators to direct him.

There won't even be anything "thinking" behind it because AS OF TODAY, the technologies i'm talking about are focused on creating something that is "coherent" with everything it "knows" (aka the database it was trained on, filtered through the prompt you input). So it's not thinking. It doesn't even know it's creating, it's trying to reproduce existing codes and structures. It may change as other technologies take over (some are trying right now) but that's the state of affairs at the time of writing.
