John David Washington (JDW) was good in Ballers on HBO. In Tenet he was okay and in Bekett it was just wtf? I agree that certain actors and actresses have a niche that they do best in.

Never watched Ballers and haven't seen Tenet, but just watched a trailer. Looks good. Will add it to my watch list.

What's surprising is that the one female actress who played his girlfriend is an excellent actress. Unfortunately she didn't get enough screen time.

Yeah, I also didn’t know until a year or so ago. Must have missed the memo.

Alicia Vikander was in the movie too but I didn’t see her. His gf definitely didn’t get enough screen time.

You know, I was wondering if that was her. Didn’t quite look like her but at the same time kind of did. I didn’t bother looking it up since the movie sucked. That’s the kind of movies that could put an actor down a slippery slope to C-list.

It was great for a few seasons. Then it tailed off towards the end. Was kind of like Entourage.

Agreed. My wife sat there looking at each other like WTF?
It felt like the movie began from the middle.

Anybody have recommendations on where to download a lot of movies for free?

Wife and I are taking a 12 hr road trip up to my cabin in NC in a couple of weeks, and I wanted to download a bunch of movies to a USB.
We've been using individual DVDs lately when taking weekend road trips, but we've literally watched everything now.

Just read the news this famous Japanese actor died from COVID complications. Many may recall him portraying Hattori Hanzo in Kill Bill. He was actually well known in his younger days and was in a ton of Japanese movies including "The Street Fighter".

Did you have your clock before you saw Kill Bill?

I did actually. My best friend bought it for me for a house warming gift. The first time I watched Kill Bill (was watching with said buddy) I noticed the clock, mentioned it to him and he was clueless until I zoomed in on the screen.

Watched a couple movies last weekend.

1st was Diani & Devine Meet the Apocalypse on Prime. Was actually pretty funny, my wife even got in to watching it. The beginning few mins were a little annoying but give it time.

2nd was Knowing, little bit older but I hadn't seen it. Not bad and helped pass some time. Amazing how much graphics have gotten better just since 2009.
