Movie Thread

Anyone watching Stranger Things on Netflix? I'm surprised it hasn't been discussed in here yet. The best way to describe it would be is that they basically made a 1980's thriller today, and in my opinion, they knocked it out of the park. The music really stands out for me, but everything else is 80's without the cheese. You'll know whether you'll like it by the first episode. Check it out.

I liked it.
Found this on Netflix, if you havent seen this - worth watching.

Watched Ted 2 the other day. Haven't laughed at a movie that much in a while.

Going to see Suicide Squad this weekend. Should be worth the price of admission just to see Margot Robbie. I'll let you know what I think of it.

I'll be doing the same. I heard from a co-worker that it's pretty good. The wife and I are excited.

In other news, I just watched The Jungle Book (the new "live action" version) the other night, it was pretty good. Some great actors voicing the animals, Bill Murray, Ben Kingsley, Idris Elba, Scarlet Johanson, and that crazy guy Christopher Walken as King Louie. Enjoyable flick.

^ Loved the actual book when I was a kid-movie was pretty good.

Let us know about Suicide Squad. I'd go see it just for Margot Robbie, but if the movie is actually okay, then that's a bonus.

If you're a baseball fan, I watched "Fastball" on Netflix and was really impressed. Its the story of the fastball throughout the history of the game and why its so hard to hit. The science they get into as they compare speeds and pitchers was fascinating!

Saw Fastball. Pretty interesting and I'm not even a huge baseball fan.

So, my 17 year old went to Suicide Squad last night and it was, in his words, "terrible". Not that hes exactly a sophisticated film critic, but if he isn't impressed with a movie that has hot girls, violence and explosions, then it might actually be awful. I think it just went from a theater watch to a man cave movie.

All the reviews say it's terrible.
