How about a movie thread?

Been reconnecting with some of the better "Black Urban" films.

Fresh: A youngster outsmarts the streets.

Clockers:A white detective, driven by preconceived ideas,
hounds a low level drug dealer.

Paid In Full: The lure of "easy" money is exceedingly powerful.

The fast-paced intelligent dialogue reminded me of "West Wing." Then I realized that that the two are siblings, both sprung from Aaron Sorkin. I'm looking forward to the rest of the shows.

Just got into that too. LOVED the 'rant' in the pilot. There's a meeting at the beginning of episode three that I got bored with, but I'll get back to it.

I'm into HBO on demand through an Apple TV. Got all that for Game of Thrones. Was going to drop the $15.00 HBO thing between Thrones seasons, but so far I've kept it. Can watch all the back episodes of Thrones, and I got to rewatch Rome, after seeing it years ago, and watched 'Pacific,' the 'Band of Brothers with Marines' show, and now I'm rewatching Band of Brothers. The Sopranos is there too.

We've kept Netflix as well, mainly because they've got all the Star Treks. We have a late night Star Trek habit.

Patti and I do too. We're watching, 'The Next Generation' these days. I hope they come out with 'Deep Space Nine' soon.

Thinking about seeing a movie this weekend, we looked up Movie Bob's revue of Pixels online. I don't think he liked it.

Watched "Nightcrawler" the other night on Netflix.

It's one creepy movie, but it's damned good IMO.

Really makes you think.

Saw 'Flight of the Intruder' recently. Not bad for a flick about the lowly Grumman A-6 bomber in 'Nam.

'Man of The Year' with Robin Williams.

Mebbe it's just me but I'm liking the new crop of sci-fi series such as 'Falling Skies' and 'Defiance'.

Just an old kid raised on Heinlein, Asimov and Ray Bradbury, I guess.

Mr. Holmes was excellent.
