I usually try to watch the first movies before a sequel, but this time out, I did not do that. I watched Maleficent when it came out in theaters a couple of years ago, and haven’t watched it since then. I didn’t care much for it, but I went to see the sequel, anyway. Admittedly, …

Zombieland: Double Tap (2019)
Followed up my second viewing of Gemini Man with Zombieland: Double Tap at the AMC Lufkin. The original cast – Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Abigail Breslin, Emma Stone & Bill Murray – all return from the first film. Zoey Deutch, Luke Wilson, Thomas Middleditch, Avan Jogia, and Rosario Dawson join the cast as other survivors …
Gemini Man (2019)
So, I was in Tyler Wednesday night, and I was watching Gemini Man on the IMAX screen at the AMC Tyler. It was the second movie of the day, and with about a half hour or so left in the film, the screen went dark & the emergency lights started to flash. A prerecorded voice …
Justice League vs the Fatal Five (2019) and Teen Titans Go! vs Teen Titans (2019)
I used a coupon from Redbox the other night, rent one, get one at a Wal-Mart Redbox kiosk. After the Fathom Events double feature, I figured an animated DC double feature would work. Justice League vs the Fatal Five is in the same continuity as the Justice League / Justice League: Unlimited, with Bruce Timm …

Fathom Events – Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001) and Jay and Silent Bob Reboot (2019)
I had to work Tuesday night, so I missed the first Fathom Events screening of Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. Instead, I went out Thursday night for the Jay and Silent Bob double feature of Strike Back and Reboot. The closest theater was the Cinemark in Lufkin. So glad I didn’t have to worry about …
Jexi (2019)
The new Adam Devine comedy was not on my radar at all, and I admit I only went to see it because with AMC Stubs, I had a ticket to burn. Devine’s Phil was raised with a cellphone as a distraction by parents who wanted him to be occupied. He grows up & doesn’t know …
The Addams Family (2019) BigD
I went out to AMC Tyler this past Wednesday for an attempted double feature, but thanks to the popcorn machine setting off the smoke detectors, I was only able to watch the new animated film of The Addams Family on the BigD series. The film starts with the marriage of Gomez & Morticia, and they …
Judy (2019)
The second of yesterday’s two movies, this one at the AMC Classic Longview 10, was the new biopic Judy starring Renee Zellweger. The movie isn’t a life story about Judy Garland, but instead focuses on her final touring performance in London, weeks before her death in 1969, with flashbacks to her time making The Wizard …
Ghostbusters (1984)
First, a brief history. The first time I saw Ghostbusters, I didn’t know what it was. My older sister was doing some high school event, and I snuck over to the Commons where the girls were watching a movie. It was the “Get her!” scene from the library, and watching the librarian ghost turn into …
Regal Longview and AMC Classic Longview 10
Fathom Events announced a thirty-fifth anniversary screening of Ghostbusters (1984) a few weeks ago. The Lufkin Cinemark was not a participating theater, the next closest option was in Longview. I checked the AMC website, and turns out that the Longview AMC was the only one of the four local-ish theaters that was showing Judy. So, …
