The best part of Beast starring Idris Elba was the ending credits because I knew it was finally over. Not sure how you screw up Cujo with a lion so badly but that was painfully boring and I wouldn’t wish that experience on anyone. Thank god it’s daylight savings so I only die 30 minutes early now instead of 90
I saw Scream 6 yesterday. It was fine. Probably my least favorite of the 6 so far. Although I haven't rewatched 5 since the theatre so it may not play as well on a second viewing. For me 1 and 2 are on their own their, then 4, then the rest.

This is a slow boil but the acting from Lily McInerny & Jonathan Tucker will keep you engaged until the grim, grim story unfolds. Carebears Christmas special it is not.
The ending has left me thinking about this movie a fair bit over the last few days.

I liked 6. For me it's on par with 5 and 4, but not as good as 1 or 2. And it's definitely better than 3, which is still the worst of the series IMO.
The cold open was one of the better ones they've done so far, and I'm starting to like the new characters. The kills were gorier and more violent in this one as well, which I liked. Also loved the return of Kirby from Scream 4.
Spoiler!
My only complaint is the amount of times we see the main characters surviving multiple stab wounds to the gut when they should have been dead within seconds/minutes. The silliest one was Chad (Mason Gooding) being hauled out on the stretcher still alive at the end, which was ridiculous. He's by far my least favorite of the current characters, and I was hoping that was the end of him. He must have been stabbed at least 20 times in that scene, lol.

Yeah, I agree. I think you're allowed one fake out death of a core character, like Dewey in Scream 2. I don't' think you can do that three times with three characters in the same movie.

Watched The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent almost solely because of the Pedro Pascal / Nicolas Cage Tik Tok memes. I'm not usually a Nicolas Cage fan but it was surprisingly hilarious.

Pretty much nailed my exact thoughts on it, down to your spoilered complaint.
My wife and I were laughing about how many people get stabbed with a pretty serious looking knife into their internal organs and are up running and jumping around soon after.
Watched A Few Good Men for the first time, what an excellent movie. It has one of the greatest ensemble casts ever with names like Nicholson, Cruise, Demi Moore as well as Cuba Gooding Jr in a small role. We have all heard Nicholson say the famous line "You Can't Handle the truth" but after watching the movie and everything that leads up to that moment makes it so much more impactful. Certainly don't make movies like this anymore, a brilliant crime drama/court room case.
