I can't help myself finding it all quite poignant that Dune--set in a future where the production of machines designed to think like humans has been out-lawed--should be having its brightest moment in the sun right now, just as the experience shallowing potential of AI is beginning to dawn on us.

So, as a follow-up to "The Notebook" (2004), which I've watched countless times, I'm now watching "Top Gun" (1986) which I've watched countless times too.
There's even some romance in "Top Gun" but I've never found the "connection" between #TomCruise & #KellyMcGillis credible because they never seemed like a plausible match to me which was clearly a casting problem.
The romantic "connection" between Cruise & #JenniferConnelly was much better in "Top Gun: Maverick" (2022) IMO. 🤷♂️

I am apprehensive about TRON:Ares, the sequel to TRON and TRON: Legacy. The big thing that makes me uneasy is Jared Leto.
Though seeing Cameron Monaghan (aka Cal Kestis) on the credits is cool. So is seeing Gillian Anderson (aka Scully).

For the most part, It's really slow but I've always liked #Interstellar
Partly, it's because #MatthewMcConaughey** **#JessicaChastain & #AnneHathaway are 3 of my favorite actors from the current era and that #MichaelCaine & #EllenBursten are favorite actors of mine from the past.
But also because like the way it deals with the space-time continuum & the search for alternative sites for human habitation.
I like #MattDamon as an actor too but what I like least about the movie is how his character behaves which I consider an unnecessary distraction but it is what it is. 🤷♂️
I remember seeing Interstellar in theaters when it was released…and hating it. I have since grown to like the movie after multiple viewings.
The movie is getting a second release this September, I am looking forward to seeing it again on the big screen ten years later.
I notice a lot more people are interested in or are seeing Monkey Man, so here's my short review from when I saw it last week.

A Mini Review of Dev Patel's "Monkey Man"
This weekend my 16-year-old daughter and I went to the Alamo Drafthouse to see Dev Patel's directorial debut "Monkey Man". You may know Dev Patel as an actor from the British TV series "Skins", or...cool-as-heck.blog
Aw-yeah! It's that time again! I've been reading mixed things about Civil War (and, frankly, that movie looked less like fun and more like a homework assignment).
But I got a ticket to a late night showing of Patel's Monkey Man at the Alamo Drafthouse. I'm excited!

Can studios please just admit that running your own streaming platform was very costly mistake? Can you go back to creating content and licensing it out?

File this under "things we never knew we wanted until we discovered we couldn't have them." David Lynch pitched an animated project called "Snootworld" to Netflix, but was rejected. He started working on the script 20 years ago with Caroline Thompson, writer of "The Nightmare Before Christmas," "Edward Scissorhands" and 1991's "The Addams Family." Here's what the pair told Deadline.
