I forgot to do this last month so this is two months of movie watching. I feel like I need to do a monthly post on what we’re binge watching too since we do as much of that as anything. What’s the last show you binged?

How did this get made?
Interesting selections of movies that you watched. I really liked Midnight Run, Hugo and Gigi , all for different reasons. Midnight Run is a very funny take on a bounty hunter/road picture. Hugo is an excellent movie about movie making with a coming of age worked in. Gigi is an MGM musical directed with a lot of style by Vincent Minelli. Minelli was a painter and many of the scenes in the movie look like paintings that come to life.
Thanks for sharing..
You like as wide a range of movies as I do, Bill!
The Tomorrow War–So very many plot holes
Game Night– Game night has a dark side
I saw Midnight Special but I honestly can’t remember much of it or how I felt about it…I don’t know what that says about my brain and how old I’m getting…
Totally agree about Tomorrow War! Chris made it watchable but dont know how many actors could have pulled it off!
