OK. As part of my "SO is out of town" viewing options, I watched The Avengers-Age of Ultron". I thought it was awful. I'm not a big fan of superhero movies although I enjoyed the Iron Man series. This movie was just bizarre. It appeared to be an effort to include as many bizzaro bits as possible. I think I'll pass on the later Avengers movies.
 
Just my luck. Emma. One disaster after another. They called it comedy, more like a horror flick, where movie itself is so horrible.
 
The next thing I watched which you can view for free is the super cute and enjoyable documentary short called The Love Bugs. You only have until December 7 2020 says the link:

https://www.pbs.org/video/the-love-bugs-sywsod/

This looks at a long time married couple of over 50 years and the very massive bug collection they have. You get to hear stories from their bug collecting journey and you get to see a small piece of the massive collection they have.

Take the toughly 30 minutes to watch.

Just watched, on Netflix, The Midnight Sky

The Midnight Sky is a 2020 American science fiction film directed by George Clooney, based on the 2016 novel Good Morning, Midnight by Lily Brooks-Dalton.
A lone scientist in the Arctic races to contact a crew of astronauts returning home to a mysterious global catastrophe.

Scifi/Space movies are not what we search for but, we enjoyed this movie.

I've set out to watch the Star Wars movies in chronological order.

I started at Episode I and have watched through Episode VII. Two more to go.
 
I've gotten into the Madalorian. Will have to watch all the Star W's , as you say, in order. My son keeps commenting on past characters in them and I never have a clue what he's talking about... :mad: :LOL:

Last night watched Flubber with my grand.daughter. Been so long since I saw the original have no idea if it was following true to the story. But did anyone know it was "loosely" based on a Professor from ... (oops, I forget, Yale or something) who used to have "explosive" demo's in class.
 
I've been so very busy lately,
I haven't watched much of any thing.
But this past week I did watch:

Cinderella The Movie - it was just okay
Peter Rabbit - meh
Bad Santa - really bad movie - don't bother!

I wanted to watch Let Him Go with Kevin Costner and Diane Lane,
but howdy-dowdy! It's $19.99 just to RENT the dang movie!
I'll wait ...

We stream all of our video watching on our TV,
we no longer have regular "tv" and we haven't
been to a movie house since we were selling our home
in Southern Arizona, back in 2015-2016, and had to out of the Open Houses.

From what I'm understanding, with the craziness
of 2020, that's how most folks are watching movies now...
Stream it ... not go to the movie house ... which is
fine by me. I'd rather lounge on our comfy sofa
in my PJ's with the snack and adult beverage of my choice
:LOL:

For the first time in 10 months, we went to the movie theater. Almost empty (maybe 20 people), first showing of the day.

News of the World

IMDb Tom Hanks and Helena Zengel

Five years after the end of the Civil War, Capt. Jefferson Kyle Kidd crosses paths with a 10-year-old girl taken by the Kiowa people. Forced to return to her aunt and uncle, Kidd agrees to escort the child across the harsh and unforgiving plains of Texas. However, the long journey soon turns into a fight for survival as the traveling companions encounter danger at every turn -- both human and natural.

Loved this movie. Tom Hanks was.. well.. Tom Hanks.. Always enjoyable.
That said, we were enthralled by the performance of 12 year old Helena Zengel. This is a young lady to watch for.

If you like Hanks and serious westerns, go see this. :)

Interesting - I watched this last night and was looking forward to this latest Clooney release. Sadly I found it a 2 hour waste of time - possibly the worst movie I've seen in years.

I noticed that google reviews of Midnight Sky are running 2 ways .. "I loved this movie" or "I hated this movie" with very few mediocre reviews. Really interesting as usually you see a wide variety of opinion.

I watched it, Kathleen fell asleep during it. I should have. It was horrible.

Last night we watched Wonder Woman 1984. It was better than Midnight Sky, but not by much.
