My Daughter Will Be Daddy's Little Monster
I Love This T-Shirt
When I saw Harley Quinn rocking this shirt in the Suicide Squad trailer, I wanted it for my little girl. My baby daughter Cassidy Elise Fagan. She is the love of my life and my little angel. I will be front row and battle rattle to see this amazing movie. I think it will be a true epic event. Minus the psychotic behavior, I want my daughter to be just like Dr. Quinn. I'd be her Mr. J and she will always have my back just like I have her's. She is the one true woman I will make sure will always be safe and well protected. I love my little baby girl. She is my little monster and a shining star. Love you baby.

Ghostubers 2016 Is The Cartoon The Real Ghostbusters Come To Life
With no expectations, I walked in to a movie theater and walked out generally entertained. I had fun up to the third act where it just became a way to sell 3D movies to the world. It just turned a bad corner where the only point was the jam as much CG it could handle. There was so much fun to be had with this film. The scenes I felt I would be disappointed in, I turned around a huge belly laugh and the ones I was hopeful for, I was just whelmed.
There seems to be a weird clash of fans that believe that the more this movie is loved the more copies of the originals will erase from the DVD's, VHS's and Digital downloads from the hearts and minds of film fans. I don't see this as a proper sequel, nor reboot or remaking of the original films. Even though we have cameos. Some that were spot on perfect, others that were a few stinkers, I see this as a film adaptation of the cartoon The Real Ghostbusters. Hell, maybe more of a film adaptation of Slimer and The Real Ghostbusters.
I feel like if it spawns a sequel, they'll need to add a few men in the team. Allow it to grow and use more villains from the cartoon. Sony should make an announcement and tell the world "We were just kidding guys, this is a adaptation of the cartoon, not the movie". The boogieman should be the villain of the sequel. SPOILERS!!! Kristen Wiig's character tells a creepy story of why she believes in ghosts, saying she had a mean old lady neighbor who lived across the street and died. For thirty days every night would appear at the foot of her bed and would just stare at her while she tried to sleep. No one ever believed her. This story freaked me out a little and I think it deserves a look into it.
Something I hated about the film was the third act where it just got silly and the villain became ever more lamer. I couldn't wait for the threat to be over and the focus back on the team. The relationship between the Ghostbusters was the best parts of the movie. Kate McKinnon was the best part of the movie as was Leslie Jones. You'll enjoy yourself.

Here is what Brad Brevet from Rottom Tomatoes had to say about the Weekend Preview.
Can 'Ghostbusters' Scare Up a $50M Opening?
by Brad Brevet
This weekend Sony's Ghostbusters hits theaters amid a flurry of headlines such as being named the film with the most disliked movie trailer in YouTube history to Sony chief Tom Rothman responding to the negative online response by telling The Hollywood Reporter, "It's the greatest thing that ever happened. Are you kidding me? We're in the national debate, thank you. Can we please get some more haters to say stupid things?" As a result, awareness certainly seems high, but how that awareness translates to box office is the big question. There's always the old saying, "There's no such thing as bad press"... right?
Back in 2015 online furor called Mad Max: Fury Road "feminist drivel filth". Ultimately the uproar didn't have a noticeable impact on Fury Road's box office performance as it opened with $45 million, grossed over $150 million domestically and over $375 million worldwide on a $150 million budget. The comparison may end up eerily similar for Ghostbusters given the film's $144 million budget and its expected opening weekend.
In attempting to forecast that opening weekend, sorting the signal from the noise is a near impossibility. One might be tempted to put stock in Ghostbusters' more than 2.9 million Facebook fans. Trouble is, that page wasn't focused on the reboot until around May 2015 and even as of November 2015 it still featured the cast of the originalGhostbusters film in its "About" section at a time when it had already amassed nearly 2.4 million fans.
A study of IMDb.com traffic data is also tough to go by over the past few days. The results could very easily be skewed as a result of headlines focused on alleged ballot-stuffing suggesting a small group of IMDb users were attempting to intentionally lower the film's user score. For some perspective, the film's IMDb user rating currently stands at 4.1/10 with over 14,000 votes, 50% of which score the film 1/10. Only one-third of the film's grades have come from outside the United States and so far the only territory that has released the film is the UK, and that was on July 11.
Information that can be considered a little more closely includes the 74% rating on RottenTomatoes forGhostbusters, which has held relatively steady over the past few days. Also, Fandango.com reports the film is the online ticket retailer's top pre-selling live-action comedy of the year so far. The film is outselling comparable titles including Central Intelligence and Ride Along 2, both of which opened over $35 million, and is looking to become director Paul Feig and star Melissa McCarthy's top preseller on Fandango, suggesting an opening above 2013's The Heat ($39.1m).
In terms of a prediction, Sony is going conservative, anticipating a $38-40 million opening for the film. Given the pre-sale information alone, that forecast looks like a bare minimum as an opening closer to $45-50 million seems like a reasonable opening weekend range. While that would give the film the largest opening for a live action comedy this year, topping Central Intelligence's $35.5 million opening last month, the size of the budget and the fact this is being looked at as a franchise starter means it's going to want a multiplier similar to the 4.78 average multiplier Feig's last three films have delivered.
We'll also be keeping a close eye on the film's international performance, especially since it was just revealed it will not be released in China, partly as a result of China's official censorship guidelines prohibiting movies that "promote cults or superstition". However, the film has already hit theaters in the UK and will also be released in Australia, Brazil and a few smaller territories this weekend. It will expand its international footprint over the weeks to come.
Targeting a first place finish once again, Illumination and Universal's The Secret Life of Pets is likely to drop around 46-48% for a second weekend around $54 million. Pets is playing somewhat similarly to Inside Out, which dropped 42% in its second weekend, but given the massive, $104.3 million opening for Pets, a bit of a larger drop than Inside Out experienced is to be expected.
The weekend's other new wide release is Broad Green's The Infiltrator, which opened on Wednesday in 1,600 theaters and brought in $773,761. Reviews have been somewhat mixed with the film currently hovering just above that rotten/fresh line with a 62% rating on RottenTomatoes as a weekend around $4 million seems like a safe expectation.
In limited release a couple markets will get a double dose of Kristen Stewart this weekend with the limited release of Woody Allen's latest film, Cafe Society, into five theaters and A24 releasing Drake Doremus'sEquals into two theaters following the film's DirecTV debut.
Finally, the political climate heats up in theaters as well as on the campaign trailer with Quality Flix releasingDinesh D'Souza's Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party into three theaters this weekend followed by a nationwide expansion into 1,200+ theaters next weekend, just after the Republican National Convention has wrapped up.
This weekend's forecast is directly below. This post will be updated on Friday morning with Thursday night preview results followed by Friday estimates on Saturday morning, and a complete weekend recap on Sunday morning.
- The Secret Life of Pets (4,382 theaters) - $54.3 M

Lights Out Movie Review

The acting from the little brother wasn't great, though you feel scared for him and want him to get away. His performance kept taking me out of the movie. He reminded me too much of the son from The Ring. Though I see potential, he's a much better actor that a lot of people out there. I just think this directed didn't get what he could have from this boy. The best performances were from Teresa Palmer and Maria Bello. I was also happy to see that the movie would open with the actress from the YouTube video that started this whole thing, Lota Losten, was brought in to set the tone of this film.
Over all I was very happy with the movie, I give it 3.5 out of 5. Check it out.

Would It Be Better For Sony To Have Rebooted The Real Ghostbusters Cartoon
I believe that Sony missed a better opportunity to reboot the correct franchise. I never watched the cartoon Ghostbusters Extreme but I saw enough to know that it would have been best to continue the movies with this concept. With the upcoming reboot of Ghostbusters a lot of fans are up in arms about the direction the movie is going. Most think an all female cast is to blame but with them being as funny as they are in their own right.
I see it more to the failure of the marketing. Having a mixed group of youngsters as you got from the cartoon was the best course of action. I'm looking forward to the movie but I'm still keeping my expectations low.
I came across a picture of Egon Spangler from The Real Ghostbusters cartoon in the 80's and damn if I didn't notice a similarity of Kate McKinnon's character and Egon. Its almost identical. I think this is the direction Sony should have gone. If Sony were to reboot the cartoon and it failed then no harm to the original. You call it a reboot of the original film even thought its a total remake, it still cast a shadow if it fails.
I see it more to the failure of the marketing. Having a mixed group of youngsters as you got from the cartoon was the best course of action. I'm looking forward to the movie but I'm still keeping my expectations low.
The Shallows Movie Review
They speak of the main character going to a secret beach in Australia but its suppose to be Galveston. These girls being from Texas know that its definitely not what Galveston looks like. Jasmine says "it kept her on the edge of her seat, and gave her goose bumps." She's a fan of gory movies but Morgan was wondering why the main character could talk to animals and wore too much jewelry.
But they do recommend the movie, it will have you covering your eyes a lot due to a lot of bloody scenes. You'll have fun getting bit by the shark.

The Nice Guys Movie Review
Its set in seventies LA and it's lots of fun. It's made by Shane Black so it's pretty much along the line of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. But I would say better, there's quite a few elements of Big Lebowski. As you may know I f****** love. God I'm all over the f-bombs today; you can tell I'm passionate. This is definitely my favorite Russell Crowe play. I think the last thing I saw him do was lame is so I'm glad he's not singing. He plays the silent strong guy really well. Ryan Gosling who is really showing that he's actually good at physical comedy which is not what you'd expect necessarily from him. He's romantic he's clumsy he's crazy. He does have most of the good lines. Just generally, on form it's a mismatched buddy comedy. It's just good performances by both. The whole film really involves around that central relationship. The surprising note as well is Ryan Gosling's daughter who is kind of like the penny from Inspector Gadget she's pretty savvy smart and sometimes and this type of film you expect a young girl to be a burden but probably being a damsel but she's owning this s***. She's getting into the center of it and being a strong female character. The plot is really good as well there's actually a who's done it and the narrative flows.

It's crazy in places and unusual characters along the way but I definitely feel I will watch it again to get more out of it there's definitely stuff I missed the first time around but the thing I didn't miss is that it's f****** spot-on like a unicorn! F-bomb number 3. But it is for unicorns so it's totally worth it.
you want some quotes? You want to hear some of the funny stuff that they're saying? Here we go. "Marriage is buying a house for someone you hate".
"You know who else was just following orders? Hitler!"
Boom!
I do enjoy it. I do enjoy the location. Just generally generally enjoyed it. I think it's potentially my new favorite family year. It was a good link, it sets up for a sequel and I kind of hope it does. So yes, go see it brilliant film I couldn't recommend it stronger. Modern cult classic. But what did you guys think did you like it as much as I did who is your favorite character, Ryan Gosling or Russell Crowe?
