I'm not a Travolta fan, but that flick looks pretty good.
Love the Kettles, Marjorie Main was a riot. Her interaction with the Indian always knocked me out.I've been watching My Three Sons on MeTV and decided to watch my DVD of the 1947 classic The Egg and I DVD starring Claudette Colbert and Fred MacMurray. The movie must have been a precursor to Green Acres and was loads of fun. The movie also featured Ma and Pa Kettle and launched a series of movies starring those two characters. IMDB rates it 7.2 but I would give it an 8.5.
Some great movies on that list. I agree too there's a lot of creativity in the older movies. I think next up I'll dig out another movie that inspired a TV show, Francis the Talking Mule. I've never seen it but I like Mr. Ed and my tells me it's pretty funny.Love the Kettles, Marjorie Main was a riot. Her interaction with the Indian always knocked me out.
Nothing like the classics. I turned my older son onto The African Queen, Casablanca, The Thin Man, It Happened One Night and Citizen Kane, movies he had always heard about but not invested the time. Now, he has an appreciation for the groundwork laid and remarked the writing was better back then. I agree.
Loved that, Donald O'Connor plays the straight man to the mule, voiced by Chill Wills. And he won't talk to anyone but him.Some great movies on that list.

Once Upon A Time in Hollywood. 3/10
Good acting, beautiful cinematography, but terrible plot. The first two hours is basically people driving around in cars.

No, I am. The only movies of his I didn't like are Deathproof, Hateful 8, and this one.Just not as Tarantino fan.
He's too chatty in his dialogue for me for the most part.No, I am. The only movies of his I didn't like are Deathproof, Hateful 8, and this one.

I find most of his movies corny. Didn't care for Pulp Fiction at all. Django was pretty good and maybe a couple others, but his stories are pointless excuses for over the top violence and bad dialogue.He's too chatty in his dialogue for me for the most part.

Not great, but I thought it was OK. Prolly only for Scifi fans.
While I seldom sit thru the movie previews of a DVD movie, I caught one titled "Foxcatcher" ,just saying it was coming soon to blu-ray,,,the preview portrayed it in some kinda' surreal & weirdly godfather-esque fashion, it said it was based on an actual event, something about an Olympic caliber collegiate style wrestling training camp& it featured that Steve Carrel (dinner for shmucks/anchorman guy) in an totally unrecognizable character role and was curious if anyone had seen or heard anything about this flick? As I'm not all that certain if I wanna see this flick, as it shows him learching out unto the wrestling mat with a pistol being held down along his right leg.
Way cool Man& thank youIt's an excellent, and true movie about one of the richest families in America, and the demise of their last real heir.
Steve Carrell is fantastic in the lead role. Channing Tatum and Mark Ruffalo also star.
