RoboCop

I love it when my wife gets a random craving for legendary genre flicks. 

I don’t even question where her urge to watch ROBOCOP right after our son’s 9th birthday party at Chuck E Cheese came from…I just follow the prime directive and hit play.

Still one of my all time favorites, and frighteningly more relevant in 2020. #DontOpenTheBeaches

Bound by Honor

My first and best film discovery of 2020. Started off seemingly laughably bad, with the accents and slang presented as a minstrel show...but then it keeps going. 

The performances get stronger, the narratives denser, and a parade of amazing character actors crawl in from the wings.

I was aghast when I realized the run time was over 3hrs, but by the end, I was disappointed it wasn’t longer.
