brlesh Your summary of The Running Man is not a surprise to me after seeing the trailers. I was hoping I was wrong in my opinion. Bummer.

dannyboy121070 Brazil was unwatchable for me and I never finished it. Monkeys is always one I want to like but can't. I hadn't heard of Eddington before and it doesn't sound appealing.

My mother, who does not know the names of virtually any directors, knows Terry Gilliam's name. As in "I will never forget that horrible film you forced me to take you to see! TIME BANDITS! Yuck! That same horrible Terry Gilliam also made that horrible Munchausen film! Horrible!" Bear in mind, TIME BANDITS came out in 1979, so I was maybe 9 years old when I "forced" her to take me. And she still holds a grudge. I watched it with my wife and kids a few years ago, and none of them liked it, either. Guess it must just appeal to me, lol.

I loved Time Bandits as a kid and found Baron to be amusing. I have not watched them again as an adult. Time Bandits was something entirely different to me as a young person and I still remember bits and pieces of it a million years later. It left an impression on me for sure.

For sure...I had never seen anything like TIME BANDITS, and it still holds up! Glad to find another fan!

Odd double-feature last night...

First was MATERIALISTS, a rom-com (Which my wife says it definitely was NOT!) about a female matchmaker in Manhattan who must choose between a perfect millionaire and her impoverished ex-boyfriend. Well-done, good performances...I liked it. Pedro Pascal is in EVERYTHING that comes out. Just saying...

Next was GOOD BOY, the dog-in-a-haunted-house film that was in theaters over in October. As I suspected, telling a story, even one as short as this (Barely 70 minutes) from the POV of a dog gets old real fast, and leaves a lot of unanswered questions. I do, however, think this dog should get an Oscar. He was emoting like a canine Meryl Streep.
