  1. Past hour
  2. And when that fog horn blows I wanna hear it, I don't have to fear it And I wanna rock your gypsy soul Just like way back in the days of old
  3. June she'll change her tune, in restless walks she'll prowl the night July she will fly, and give no warning to her flight August die she must,
  4. Today
  5. Thor is speaking in three of those exchanges. Thor is not in the name of the movie. I believe that narrows it down to five possibilities
  6. Yesterday
  7. Seriously, does it matter? There might have been two, there might have been four, and - since the Romans liked a spectacle - there might have been dozens, or even hundreds. And the record simply notes those who were, in effect, in easy earshot. Pictures suggest that the uprights of crosses were maybe 6 or 7 feet apart. That's a maybe. They could have been only two or three feet apart. How far could a dying man's voice project?
  8. Ok let me try again: Right track. Right station. Wrong train and departure time. It is not a "Thor" movie.
  9. I'm thinking, "Thor: Ragnarok." George
  10. How about "Thor- Dark World" (Thor 2)???
  11. Last week
  12. Right track. Right train. Wrong departure time.
  13. I'm pretty sure this is a Thor movie. I'm also seeing the Guardians of the Galaxy involved. Thor, Love and Thunder? George
  14. Right track, wrong train. Huge hint in my last post.
  15. Guaranteed you've seen it, almost guarantee multiple times. A limited number of times, for sure, but multiple. "All my life I dreamed of a day, a moment, when you got what you deserved. And I was always so disappointed."
  16. Kindergarten Cop ("I have such a headache!" "Maybe it's a tumor." "It's NOT a tumah!") "So forget any ideas you've got about lost cities, exotic travel, and digging up the world. We do not follow maps to buried treasure, and "X" never, ever marks the spot." George
  17. Obscurish lines from a not at all obscure movie. "That's a made-up word!" "All words are made up." *** "Well, he's never fought me." "Yeah, he has." "Well, he's never fought me twice." *** "It'll kill you." "Only if I die." "Yes. That's what 'kill you' means."
  18. Jew and Gentile now to be one body in Christ. The great mystery revealed which is the new and everlasting covenant; Christ in you (all of you both individually and collectively), the hope of glory.
  19. What was that movie I liked him in? Oh, yeah. P C U Jon Favreau Iron Man 2
  20. OK, I have another movie. This movie is from a famous director, and is a famous movie in its own right. The script was based on a novel, and the English translation of the novel's title is "Cold Sweat- From Among the Dead." This movie is largely set in and around San Francisco (California.) This movie had an alternate ending. As was common at the time, the European censors were appeased by an ending that made sure no villain got away. (It can be seen as a deleted scene in the Collector's Edition.) Two of the main characters are safe, and a radio announcement tells of the arrest of the mastermind behind the crime. It has been said that you need to see this movie at least twice to get it- once to focus on the plot, and once to focus on the characters and themes and so on. One criticism of this movie is the pacing- it suffers from a lack of explosions, fist fights, and flash, and the first half APPEARS to have little happening in it- the first time you see the movie. But if you trust that the movie earned its reputation and the director did as well, you can stick with it and observe the movie transform while you watch. Martin Scorcese raved about this movie. Among his comments- "As is the case with all great films, truly great films, no matter how much has been said and written about them, the dialogue about it will always continue." "In fact, it just stands alone - period. For such a personal work with such a uniquely disturbing vision of the world to come out of the studio system when it did was not just unusual - it was nearly unthinkable." He also praised the "astonishing" title sequence and the "tragically beautiful score." One of the main characters is seen early in the movie, in a high-rise apartment. It is his friend's apartment, not his own, and he is visiting. Otherwise, we'd have a rather curious question to pose to the character or the director.
  21. I'm surprised it took this long, too. You are correct. George
