Furious 7

Furious 7: Directed by James Wan. With Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jason Statham, Michelle Rodriguez. Deckard Shaw seeks revenge against Dominic Toretto and his family for his comatose brother. Another step closer to watching the necessary movies before seeing Fast X. Turns out that I had the wrong date for the movie though and my wife is going to be out of town the day that I currently have it scheduled AND it’s only going to be in Dolby Digital for like 3 days, so I guess I’ll be seeing this one alone in DD. Then she she gets back,...

Fast & Furious 6: Directed by Justin Lin. With Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Jordana Brewster. Hobbs has Dominic and Brian reassemble their crew to take down a team of mercenaries: Dominic unexpectedly gets sidetracked with facing his presumed deceased girlfriend, Letty. The movie with the infamous 80 mile long run way, but before you get to that you get to see dom flip a tank over a bridge and grab his gf from a mid air leap. Pure stupid ridiculousness that I just absolutely love. Buy On Amazon!

Deepwater Horizon

Deepwater Horizon: Directed by Peter Berg. With Mark Wahlberg, Kurt Russell, Douglas M. Griffin, James DuMont. A dramatization of the disaster in April 2010, when the offshore drilling rig called the Deepwater Horizon exploded, resulting in the worst oil spill in American history. Released over 7 years ago, I’m just now getting around to watching this re-enactment of a pretty terrible situation, which was only six years prior to the movie coming out. It was long enough that most of the legal shenanigans have shaken out and to nearly no one’s surprise, no one was help liable for the event...

Data, cats, comics, toilets, and fizzy waters

I got this from Goodwill, it’s a four VHS set of Star Trek TNG episodes that feature Data.  On the cover there’s a spinner with various scenes and trivia about Mr Android. Miles having a nap.  he’s a very good napper. I got a new ornament for my aquarium Since I’m not drinking alcohol at the moment, I still have an inclination to buy and consume unique beverages and Aldi is helping me out with all these goofy ciders and other assorted fizzy drinks. I’ve only had the lemonade one so far and it was delicious if much smaller than...

I lost a puzzle piece

I spent the better part of a month putting this stupid thing together and right when I was at the 90% mark, I accidentally flipped a piece behind the dryer that I was building it on. Why on the dryer? Because I have 5 cats and do not own a “puzzle box” that would let me have an incomplete puzzle just laying about my house. I pulled out the dryer, the cabinet between the dryer and the washer, the washer, disconnected everything and put everything back. I even used a damn Ryobi inspection camera to look inside the dryer and...

The Other Guys

The Other Guys: Directed by Adam McKay. With Will Ferrell, Derek Jeter, Mark Wahlberg, Eva Mendes. Two mismatched New York City detectives seize an opportunity to step up like the city’s top cops, whom they idolize, only things don’t quite go as planned. It’s a comedy that hasn’t aged as well as I would have liked, but I think that sums up most of Will Ferrell’s work from the time period. Buy On Amazon!
