I’ve been dog sitting/on mini vacation this week so I had some time on my hands

Started watching the Tom Holland Spider-Man saga with “Homecoming”; thought it was solid
“Backdraft” the other night; decent 90’s action “The Last House” a new Netflix thriller about a family trapped in their house by brinepunk aliens; good if you’re into movies with characters getting in and out of really desperate situations.
“28 Years Later:Bone Temple”; pleasantly surprised! Ralph Fiennes crushes his role.
Also “Hangover 3” and “Oblivion”; both pretty meh

When my husband wanted to watch The Bone Temple, I was initially really neutral about it. Ended up really enjoying that film though, it also surprised me! I thought it was great

Ted Lasso season 4, first episode. It's going to be different with many characters from previous years gone but I still have high hopes for another great season of shows.

Ya know, it's like my grandpa used to say when ....

season three of 1670 came out. I loved season 1&2. Season 3 tied it all up, but I was left dissatisfied, it seemed rushed, it certainly wasnt as funny. I still rate the series overall, highly

I checked out the Running Man remake. It was surprisingly good! I loved how Arnold Schwarzenegger was on the dollar bills. Not sure if there were other references to the old movie I missed, but it was great just for what it was.
