Openers doing well, holdovers holding well. Good stuff. Solid weekend.

Tom Cruise would fight an actual shark and that just isn't fair to the poor fish.

About half an hour ago.

That is straight up some GTA kinda shit.

I put Cogman #1.

Going through the 2008 stuff I've seen, it really was a bit shit. There's some stuff near the top I really like but then it almost immediately nosedives into total whatevers.

Because we did 2007 last year. Ten year anniversary and all that.

Slimy Tom.

Merged the three (!!) threads we had for this movie.

I watched O Brother, Where Art Thou? again and it is still good. My mum revealed that she is, in her words, "not a big fan of the Coens" so I have disowned her and she is no longer allowed at the Woolworths.

I like this Turteltaub fella. https://i.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/film/106128583/the-meg-how-director-jon-turteltaub-helped-taika-waititi-with-his-shark-movie

Seems good.

So why do you get to choose what is and isn't legitimate praise?

Dumb.

I'm seven movies deep into Lumet and I'm yet to find one that isn't straight up great. Before the Devil Knows You're Dead is terrific. Man, am I sad now though. Shit is bleak. And it's made me sad about PSH. I also didn't know Albert Finney had retired till I read his Wikipedia page right now, thanks to this movie. Saaaad.
