That's insanity. With a game based on Hong Kong movies you'd think starring Michelle Yeoh would be slapped all over the box.

I didn't realise Emma Stone or anyone of note was in there tbh.

I present to you: footloose dance off



Yeah, I am really enjoying it.  Great writing, continued character development and another interesting premise.  I also love the fact that they poke fun at previous story lines - "Dude, I destroyed the world - twice"  I am trying to watch it over time to make it last.

Also Tom Wilkinson, Lucy Liu, James Hong + a handful of HK folks of note, if you note HK celebrities.

I really liked the latest episode of The Orville. Very heavy on the character drama, but overall very well done.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Rewatched The Untouchables just because. Some of it has aged poorly (Connery in particular, his character is good and has good dialogue, but he's truly awful) but it's still got a bunch of killer scenes, and a great cast and soundtrack. Hiring De Palma to do mainstream thrillers is one of the best things that happened in Hollywood in the 1980s-1990s:

- Carlito's Way
- Scarface
- The Untouchables
- Mission: Impossible

All stupidly fun movies.

Tried to watch The Man From Toronto.  Mistaken identity, Buddy Harrelson is the expert interogator for criminal hire, Kevin Hart doing Kevin Hart.  Gave up.

I love The Untouchables - it's very much a comfort film for me.

Recently discovered that Bob Hoskins was in line to play Capone, as de Niro was a bit touch-and-go, which I'd quite like to see :ph34r:

What's your opinion on Connery's portrayal of the Irish people?  :P

Sheilbh

:lol: I feel like all films where Connery plays someone not Scottish need (CW) tags.

I always wondered what it would sound like if he tried to do an accent :D

That's the thing with The Untouchables - I think he is trying to do an Irish one :ph34r:
