Hail Caesar! - one of those very loose Coen comedies, that never coalesces into much of a muchness. There's some funny lines and scenes here and there, eccentric characters galore, and some charming homages to 50s Hollywood, but it never really gets going. You'll still get laughs if you dig his style though, my favorite scene was [spoiler]Channing Tatum rendezvousing with a Soviet submarine aboard a rowboat manned by Communist screenwriters[/spoiler].

I was impressed by Alden Ehrenreich (or however it's spelled), I'm looking forward his take on Han Solo.

"Squint!  Squint at the grandeur!"
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

-J. R. R. Tolkien

That's right.  You must've been taken out at the entrance gate.

Total comes to $28, and everybody has only $20s.

Watching 'Versailles' and against my better judgement rather enjoying it.

Hateful Eight- This movie exists. People speak in a smart sounding way. Not much actually happens. Worst Tarantino ever? I'll have to force myself to watch Jackie Brown again to check

Dunno how that will work, since Jackie Brown is nowhere near being the worst Tarantino film.

The worst Tarantino (Death Proof, for me) is still a damn fine film.
