Hop… 3 times in 2 days. Slept through 2 of them. Off topic but instead of Easter egg hunts TOF came up with squid games in the backyard. Involved me throwing projectiles and water balloons at my children. Winners won eggs with money. She won the day for once. I may have muttered the words “I love you” and actually partially meant it.
One of the more disappointing things in the book is the epilogue. It only mentions a few of the guys.
I read a ton of military history and many books about small units will list the casualties. I found myself wanting to go back to see who was killed and where but that would require reading the book again which isn’t happening right now.
Watched Baby Driver and the Sting the last couple nights.
I enjoy great special effects and the way those effects have made movies better in lot of ways but goddamn the Sting was incredible as there wasn’t anything modern in the movie, just great acting and a great plot.
Tokyo Vice season 2 and the Gentlemen have been better as 10 hours movies than any traditional film out so far. Want to see Immaculate while it's still in theaters and looking forward to Maxxine in July, but not much else out that looks good this spring.
Watched Sisu, a Finnish WWII one man army ruthlessly slaughtering a slew of Nazis in a 90 minute bloodbath. Highly entertaining. Aesthetically displeasing, but a happy ending.
Comments
I’ve quoted that line at least 10 times in my life and had never actually seen it.
One of my favorite movies.
Can you dig it!!
My first time in NYC I spent a better portion of a day looking for filming locations. The conclave scene location is a playground.
Again, John Wick 4 pays homage to it. Its been used a lot in popular culture.
Ricky Stanicky on Amazon. Great comedy. Not the greatest but not bad. John Cena deserves an oscar.
Wonka. Decent backstory but too much singing.
Coogan's Bluff
The Regime on HBO is sneaky good
Couldn’t get into the regime.
Meanwhile Tokyo Vice just had its best episode yet.
Yeah I'm glad I tried Tokyo Vice. Season 2 has been great
Regime barely survived Delete but it grew on me
Shitty thing about Tokyo Vice is with where the season is heading, not sure how you can have a season 3 without Tozawa.
Poor Things
I can't stand movies that cast Mark Buffalo. Zodiac and Collateral is it.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The Johnny Depp / Tim Burton version. The ending is more in line with the book. Came out 19 years ago. I am old.
Blazing Saddles last night. Today is the last day it’s on Netflix.

Birth of the Dragon. With starting Warrior and reading some Bruce Lee books lately this was a pretty good random discovery on Netflix.
Finished Band of Brothers last night. HBO delivered on this. I was thumbing through the book yesterday and realizing how well they told the story.
Couldn't agree more. It's one of the best ever rather easily. I'd watch it every year if it wasn't such a big, time and energy draining commitment.

We doubled up on movies last night.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Could’ve also been called Crotch Rot Retard Plot.
Followed that up with Maverick with Mel Gibson. Made up for our earlier choice.
