What was the last movie you watched?


Recommended Posts

The mates and I had a Star Wars weekend, watching the 6 in order from first to last. It's been a blast,

For some reason, I just can't do this.

Yeah I'm one of "those" guys. I have to watch it in chronological order, I tried by order of episodes.

Just can't.

The Wraith - 1986

Early Charlie Sheen movie, Packard Walsh and his motorized gang control and terrorize an Arizona desert town where they force drivers to drag-race so they can 'win' their vehicles. After Walsh beats the decent teenager Jamie Hankins to death after finding him with his girlfriend, a mysterious power creates Jake Kesey, an extremely cool motor-biker who has a car which is invincible. Jake befriends Jamie's girlfriend Keri Johnson, takes Jamie's sweet brother Bill under his wing and manages what Sheriff Loomis couldn't; eliminate Packard's criminal gang the hard way...

It is on Hulu if you are curious

I just watched the "documentary" Terry.

Here is the promotional text for the movie taken from it's Facebook page..

In the summer of 2009, Charlie Ruez made a documentary...

6 months later the footage was seized for evidence by the Metropolitan Police Department...

In 2010.......The footage was released.

TERRY

Whatever Happens....Just Keep Filming...........

Cannot say I was a big fan. It is filmed incredibly realistically since it is a mockumentary, and if not for Google I do believe people would wonder if it was actually real. So as a result some of the scenes are quite disturbing, but after about 20 minutes you get the entire depth of the character Terry, so the rest of the movie really is just quite repetitive. And when a movie is only 1 hour and 20 minutes and it starts to feel to long, you know something went wrong on the cutting room floor. And honestly the overall ending was pretty corny. I really was hoping it took a completely different direction, however it did not. Had higher hopes for the movie based on the previews I had read. I would give it a...

2.5/5

What it actually reminded me of is a modern day version of what I feel is a truly brilliant movie, and that is the french movie Man Bites Dog.

If people are into the whole concept of the mockumentary, and also like truly disturbing films and incredibly dark, dark comedy, then I strongly recommend Man Bites Dog. It is honestly one of the first films I recall doing the mockumentary style, and it is really a truly dark, disturbing, yet amazing film. One of the all time classics in my opinion.

I see Jack Falls listed above, I will either be watching that tomorrow night or London Boulevard, have not fully decided yet.

If anyone here has seen London Boulevard and can provide some very quick feedback, like is it worth watching, it would be appreciated. My wife definitely prefers to watch it over Jack Falls just because there is also a love story element to London Boulevard that is evident thanks to the trailers.

    • That is $130 more than I paid for my 4TB a year ago. How is this a deal?
    • JetBrains' new AI-first 'IDE' JetBrains Air is now on Windows by David Uzondu JetBrains has announced that JetBrains Air, its Agentic Development Environment (ADE) is now available for download on Windows x64 and ARM. You might not be familiar with JetBrains Air. It's this new desktop app that the company launched back in March 2026 to let developers hand off tasks to AI agents instead of writing every line manually. You can see it as more of an Agentic Development Environment (ADE) rather than a traditional Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The latter builds its features around a central text editor, while the former arranges everything around the AI agent itself. Here's how JetBrains describes it: Air was born from the ashes of Fleet, an experimental editor that the company quietly killed in December 2025 after realizing that competing directly with VS Code was a losing battle. The company repurposed Fleet's lightweight, modern architecture to build Air, transforming a basic code editor into a workspace for running multiple AI agents. When Air launched, it was only available for macOS. It wasn't until earlier this month that Linux users got a chance to play with the software. Now that Air is on Windows, you can do things like map out a complex feature in Plan mode and watch an AI write the implementation plan to a markdown file before writing any code. You can iterate on this plan, add references to specific classes or files, and choose whether to run the agent locally or inside an isolated Git worktree. Running agents in parallel means you can have Claude refactor a database schema in one branch while Codex writes tests in another, leaving you free to do other important things. You can even set up a pipeline where Claude writes the code, and Codex reviews it. At the moment, Air is free. If you have a JetBrains AI Pro or Ultimate subscription, you get full access to the built-in agents, though there's also the option to Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) to run APIs from Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google. If you're interested, here are the download links for both x64 and ARM64.
    • Depending how you’re wiring it internally, but try to put it inside conduit, that way in the future you can more easily replace cables, compared to running inside studs alone At least cat6a too
    • I bet Meta has lots of info on you anyway, gathered by other means. And Google, and Microsoft, and every other tech giant. If you use some form of modern electronic device, they own you already...
    • I'm using Windows 11 Pro 25H2 on "ancient" hardware, too: - Core i7 3770K - GTX 1050 2GB - 16GB DDR3 1333 MT/s It runs flawlessly, not a single issue. I also have it on other ancient setups, but I don't remember the exact specs right now (Intel 4th. generation).
