Kevin has made a few disappointing films over the years, but I wouldn’t say he’s a bad filmmaker.

The 4:30 Movie is quite good, and probably the most mature comedy he’s ever made. It really felt like a return to form so I’d recommend giving that a chance if you enjoyed his early work.

Tales From the Hood (1995) and Tales From the Hood 2 (2018) were both directed by Rusty Cundieff and written by Rusty Cundieff and Darin Scott. They’re horror comedies (Cundieff would go on to direct many of the sketches from Chappelle’s Show (2003) so those might be good options if you want a palate cleanser after more serious fare.

There’s also a third ‘Tales From the Hood’, but I haven’t seen it, so I can’t speak to its quality, but it’s got the same creative team.

Agreed, when I rewatch Dexter I always stop after season 4. It doesn’t get better than the Trinity killer storyline. That might be one of the best single seasons of television ever. And it’s crazy how bad that show got by the end… talk about going from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows! Although even at its worst the show still managed to be better than the books.

It’s not flattering.

Agreed, I loved the casting but was a bit disappointed with the movie itself but I’m glad they’re bringing him back for more.

I’ve been looking forward to this for a while. I never would’ve considered Colin Farrell for The Penguin but he pulled it off in what limited screen time he got in The Batman. So at the very least, we’re in for a good performance. I just hope the writing will be on par with The Batman.

Oh well. I guess this shouldn’t come as much of a surprise considering the show’s disinterest in the source material and Paramount’s precarious position these days.

I’ve never seen Doctor Who.

You say you’ve never even seen Doctor Who before so by your own admission your opinion is uninformed and therefore offers nothing of substance. This is a community for discussing movies and television. Not your personal soapbox for airing your uninformed culture war grievances. Take that somewhere else.

That’s fair. Sony hasn’t done much lately with their own live action Spider-Man related projects to deserve the benefit of the doubt but I’m willing to be surprised. Nic Cage leading the series is at least enough to get me to give it an honest chance.

It’s a biopic about getting Rocky made.

The official logline for “I Play Rocky” reads: “A struggling actor with a partially paralyzed face and a speech impediment writes a script that a big movie studio wants to buy, but he refuses to sell it unless he gets to play the lead. Turning down an offer of life-changing money, he instead works for pennies to get the movie made with himself in the starring role. The movie becomes the biggest box office hit of 1976, garnering 10 Academy Award nominations and winning Best Picture.”

But even without that context I don’t understand why that’d be strange. Loads of biopics have been made about famous actors who’ve appeared in lots of films with a much less interesting story than how Sly brought Rocky to the screen by gambling on himself.

Jeff Bridges as the least grumpy version of Harrison Ford ever portrayed on film!

No. She’s been in custody since she was convicted on March 6th which is 17 months short of her 18 month sentence.

If that were the cheaper thing to do I have no doubt they would’ve done it. Personally, I figured they were more likely go portless/wireless charging before being forced to USB-C but I guess that’s not entirely feasible yet.
