Friday evening is here🍻


I put in a case of Beer and some Rum...have a bunch of movies to watch and its going to be rainy and not very nice outside
Im doing movies and house chores all weekend...maybe take the family fishing on Sunday

Any weekend plans MovieChatters?

reply

What movie are you planning to watch first?

reply

I have a deal with StoneKeeper...we are both going to watch The Mansion on Netflix (it seems like a haunted house movie) so i need to watch it tonight
I will probably finish Sneaky Pete season 2 this weekend as well...Ribisi is fantastic as a conman
And probably my usual dumb slasher and drive-in trash:)

reply

Good luck with The Mansion. With a rating of 4.7 you better have that rum handy.

reply

he is up to the challenge.

reply

The rum is iced up and ready👍
Beers are on backup!

4.7 for a horror is only a bit below average...most horrors are lucky for about a 5-6 rating
Anyway, im cooking dinner now and will jump into The Mansion in about an hour

reply

Seriously? I had no idea they were so low-rated. But then, I don't watch horror, so why would I know?

Cheers! 🍻

reply

🍻same Amiga😙
Yep...horror movies dont seem too popular
A 5/10 is a pretty good score really

Its my favorite genre so it seems odd to me!

reply


Please see my response to Hownos.

I loved It Follows
One of the best horrors of the last decade

reply


Thanks. I think I'll add it to my Netflix list.

It is tough to get a horror movie over 6 these days.

reply

If you guys are looking for a good horror movie, you might want to check out 2014's "It Follows". I have not seen it, but it's rated 6.8 on IMDB, and 97% on RT.

After a couple of days of fall-like weather here, summer has returned. Had another great bonfire last night. Mr & Mrs Neighbor came over for a while, too. They headed north a couple of hours ago. Right now I'm sitting here, watching the skies darken as a serious storm system moves in. It could get exciting here. ⚡💧 I'll be playing window tag, too. I plan to watch a few more episodes of Midsomer Murders - I'm currently watching series 8, 1st episode. Oh, and I have The Princess Bride DVD ready to go, too.

reply

Ive never seen Midsomer Murders but The Princess Bride is a classic
Love it...enjoy!

reply

I've heard that, over and over - classic, my favorite movie, etc. Let's see where it ends up on my list. 👀

reply

You will love it im sure...good comedy and some very sweet parts...
I saw it in the theatre ages ago and yelled at a bunch of hoodlums in the row behind me for talking at the screen
Barely got out of that place alive lol!

reply

Might go snorkeling tomorrow, even though the water temp is barely 70F. Had to get ice for my beer since the fridge is on the fritz. Warm beer should be illegal in my opinion.

I'm also looking forward to watching a Russian Movie I found titled Fugitives (Begleci).
https://moviechat.org/tt7667974/Begletsy

Fugitives (Origial title: Begleci - Russian: Беглецы) - known also as Witch's key (Original title: Vedmin Klyuch - Russian - Ведьмин ключ) is 2014 Russian-Kazakh adventure thriller movie directed by Rustam Mosafir. Siberia 1907. In the wild taiga fleeing group of prisoners, among whom was a revolutionary Pavel Nechayev (Pyotr Fyodorov). On their capture of the tsarist police announced a reward. Following the trail of refugees are issued bounty hunters under the guidance of cruel and experienced hunter who knows the rules of the taiga - cossack Kudim (Sergey Tsepov). The convicts are caught and killed, with the exception of Pavel, who found refuge at gold-digger Vasiliy (Valeriy Grishko) and his silent wife Ustya (Elizaveta Boyarskaya) and later in a yurt Evenk witchdoctor

reply

Sorry about the fridge...that happened to me a short time back
$700 plus delivery for a replacement😱

Warm, cold, as long as its wet i say drink up!

Enjoy your snorkeling trip...under 70F sounds bone chilling!
Be safe Amigo

I will look up your Russian movie...a lot of the foreign ones are pretty great👌

reply

Good news is that the fridge is fine and it only needs a new gasket.
About the movie, I couldn't find it on any streaming sites, but its on Youtube and the quality looks good. I'm really into old military rifles and the movie features the M91/30 Mosin Nagant

reply

Good to hear about the fridge

I love the old military stuff...I had an Italian Carcano 6.5 mm in my hands once (unfortunately famous for being The Kennedy gun in Dallas) but the guy had no magazines and wanted $80 bucks...i regret not buying it to this day

My buddy bobby had a WWII Japanese carbine for sale but man was it rusted and corroded to hell!
Again, i probably should have just bought the thing

That rifle in the pics is a beauty
The oldies are real pretty!

reply

Ya Milsurp Rifles used to be literally dirt cheap. I heard you could order them through Sears Magazine in the 60's for next to nothing. Nowadays they're in the hundreds and are only gaining in value. About Mosins, the Russians might have invented them, but the Finn's made them better.

reply

Oh yes...the older guys i hunt with speak of 'sporterized' milspec rifles quite fondly
They would saw down the stocks and switch out the barrels to reduce the weight
I never fired one though...

reply

My Lee Enfield is sporterized. New stock, but I think the barrel is original.

reply

Speaking of warm beer, does anyone ever put ice cubes in their beer?

reply

No
Beer is a bit weak for me and ice would make it weaker
I take beer icy or warm...but no ice

reply

I quick chill mine in the freezer for about 15min. Works perfectly almost every time.

reply

Nope. Cooler or freezer if you want it ice cold.

reply


Snorkeling? Cool. I'm a certified scuba diver, but have not been in years. So you live near the ocean?


😎

reply

Yes, I practically live at the beach in the summer. We are an old fishing port community here. Thinking about getting a wet suit since the highest the water temp gets is around 70F give or take.

reply


Brrrrrr. That is cold.


😎

reply

You'd think that living here my whole life I'd be used to it, but I'm not. At least its refreshing with the heat we've been having this summer.

reply


I would never get used to water that cold.


😎

reply

That sounds like you, Shogie, all the way. Your tastes are simple yet refined with an easy-going attitude.

I've haven't given my weekend plans much thought. I'd honestly want to crack open a new book series I've gotten recently called "The Darkness" by Harry Turtledove, a historical fiction author famous for creating what-if scenarios. Except these 6 books all talk about World War II in the context of magic and fantasy like 'The Lord of the Rings.' I'm starting to get into the 'Vikings' show, watched the first episode and it feels like it's going to have a "War of the Roses" vibe, lots of power struggles. I'm a little worried that I might be spending too much of my free time examining conflicts and fighting, haha!

reply

Oh im pretty simple for sure lol😄

The Darkness sounds very interesting!

Vikings is pretty cool...the writing is decent but sometimes the characters can act very stupidly
The battles get way bigger and better as the series goes on and i love the costumes and landscapes...its a well done series for the most part

reply

Now, I'm really looking forward to the show, knowing you have seen it! I respect what you have to say a great deal even though we part ways in gore horror, which I will reluctantly watch with one eye closed and the other peeking out of morbid curiosity.

reply

I appeciate that:)

reply

I plan on watching a movie and drinking a beer WITH YOU MY MAN!!!!!

reply

Just tidied up the kitchen and chores are done!
Rum is icy and mixed
Lets do The Mansion on Netflix!!

reply

I came back from a 4-7 with collegues, already warmed up with beers and sangria, got me a six pack, I hope for the best!

reply

Lets Rock!

-Al Bundy, fine American

reply


Sounds like a great weekend, Shogie. You do know how to have a good time. I'm going to see a movie tonight, either "Eighth Grade" or "Three Identical Strangers". Both received excellent reviews. I'll be back later with a full report on the one I decide to see.


😎

reply

I will be interested to hear your review my good man

reply


It is forthcoming.


😎

reply

Rum is too weak for me

A big BBQ is on the horizon this Sunday

Maybe we'll go to the forest again,to gather some mushrooms

Boring,I know

reply

Sounds fun
Enjoy🍻

reply

We will✌

reply

I hope to finish another t-shirt design this weekend.

Also hope the A/C tech fixes the A/C properly tomorrow, considering he installed it wrong.

reply

Designer huh? Cool!

Best of luck with the AC
