you're probably not going to like the "Baby Driver" soundtrack either.

fuck, you made me want to see it prior to reading this.  Oh well.

Isn't Baby Driver a Dio song?

I think she was in Good Will Hunting too.

Well, it does have a track by Edith Piaf.

Das Boot is boring.

Das Boobs is far better

Magnificent Seven - the new one. It wasn't too magnificent. Bland characters blandly portrayed, not much of a sense of western epicness or its mythology, uninteresting villain. It looks like somebody adapting the superficial elements of the original without really understanding what made that film tick.

Fight scenes were ok, shades of The Wild Bunch during the climax, including the massive body count and a gatling gun.

[Admiral Yi]

A remake of Seven Samurai could be cool.

They'd probably botch it.

Yes, like the assburgerfest 47 Ronin.

Das Boot is boring.

You're boring.

You are out of the will.

The triumphant one?

Remember, you are just a man.

I am sure paying tribute to the Wild Bunch was done before though.  e.g Extreme Prejudice (1987). Arguably, any action movie.

I miss Walter Hill.

I saw a Chilean television program called "Rojo" which is supposed to be a backstage drama centered around their version of American Idol (featuring some of the actual contestants on the show.)  It's the sort of show where every plot point, including attempted gang rape, is punctuated by a song (the song is by the would be victim and her karate boyfriend savior, not the would be perpetrators.  That might have been a little too edgy.)  Apparently no parent in Chile is supportive of their children's musical ambition; and all mother-daughter conflicts can be resolved by slapping the daughter.  Still TV Chile is nowhere near as wacky as TV Mexico
