Hello! I'm doing pretty well this morning. Having a little trouble waking up, but in great spirits and ready to make some coffee and get the day started. Nothing planned today but a few phone calls, some cleaning, some reading and some play with the pup. How about yourself?

The movie was okay, but more of a silly B-movie than a full Hollywood movie. I think if you take it for some silly fun, then it is watchable. And there are a few people (Like Raul Julia) who have some memorable scenes.

You pretty much have to look at it that way. It certainly isn't anything resembling the actual series.

I am not really sure, it has been a long time since I saw them. I remember the first one being not so bad if you take it for what it is, but the sequel was not that great from what I remember. But as I said, it has been years, so I could not say how it holds up.

Tried 4 but can't be bothered to try learning it without a tutorial. At least MK9 was easy to pick up and play.

I am glad you are doing well. Hopefully you can enjoy some reading and fun time with Sarge.
I am good for the most part, a few things getting worse as the day goes on, but nothing to complain about.
Do many of the game to movie adaptations? Silent Hill 1 was good (I hear the second one is too mainstream and horrible), but look at the Resident Evil movies, they don't even make sense. They feel like a 10 hour movie cut up with no thought as to how everything fits together. It seems game adaptations are not Hollywoods strongpoint.

The vacation time is a good balance to that, though.
When I was a kid, I thought that being a nazareno was a punishment. Only later did I find out that people wanted to take part in the processsion.
He chews the scenery so thoroughly in every single scene he is. That there's nothing left for the other actors.
And it's awesome!

Funnily enough, the one movie I've seen mention of that looks like a real game isn't based on a game at all.
It's called Hardcore Henry, and it looks like an insane FPS brought to life.

I have never heard of that movie. I did see the Doom movie, which had a brief FPS scene. I thought that was an okay movie, just not really Doom. More of an action/sci-fi movie using the Doom name.

They're pretty fun to watch if you ignore that a plot should normally make sense.
