I watched "The Jungle Book" on Netflix. The live-action version, not the Disney one. I was pretty impressed. Very deep, very dark, great CGI. Something I could watch with my kids and still appreciate.

Bibby and I tried to watch it in 3D when it was playing on base. It was a bit too scary for a then 6 year old but it looked great from the bit I saw.
I cant wait....and I guess ole Mav remained a rebel his entire career.

There's not too many promotion prospects when you're hauling rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong.

'Coco' is on Netflix and it's a pretty cute film. The whole giant 'day of the dead' celebration is more of a southern (Mexico) thing though.
On the Netflix subject there is a new three part series, November 13: Attack on Paris. It's told through the eyes of the first responders and survivors.

Took the wife to Ocean's 8 last night. It seems the reviewers have a hard on for this one because it's all girls, but the plan was no where near as fun as the Ocean's 11,12,13 flicks.
That said, no real surprises and if you need to take your honey to a chick-flick, she'll like this.

Agreed. Saw it as well. No need to rush out but it was good enough.

If you haven't, check out the 1960's 'Magnificent Seven' with Yul Brynner and Steve McQueen. Akira Kurosawa's 'Yojimbo' and it's Western remake 'Last Man Standing' are pretty good as well.
It's actually pretty neat to see how many cross cultural archetypes there are in Kurosawa films.
'Ran' is considered to a parallel to Shakespeare's King Lear.
Seven Samurai is the best four hours spent in front of a movie screen
'Red Beard' is akin to Macbeth
The multi-viewpoint technique from 'Rashomon' is mind-bending.
If you like Toshiro Mifune, check out the "Samurai trilogy" about Miyamoto Musashi.

Nice. I'll have to check out Kurosawa's other works when the mood strikes, didn't realize that he made films in the late 80's and early 90's. Honestly thought Kurosawa was gone by the 70's, didn't realize he kept chugging along.
