Blockbuster or Indie? in Movies ·
There was a stretch in my life where I listened to nothing but Bruce Springsteen. Just him. That lasted a few months. Then I’d pivot to someone else and listen exclusively to them for the next few months.

I suspect this thread title is poorly chosen, and frankly, the whole topic lacks any real purpose.

So, does that mean basically every American film qualifies as art? 😁
Scarface (2017) in Movies ·
Has anyone seen this movie about Al Capone where they're speaking "Spanglish"? 👎
The Godfather in Movies ·
Give me a break. Regarding this movie, Catherine Zeta-Jones is playing the lead, and the title is going to be Cocaine Godmother—it'll be in English, obviously. 👎 It drops in January.

In my last post, I mentioned the lead from Maria Full of Grace and how she took over the role from Catherine Zeta-Jones, but according to IMDb, there’s actually another film about Griselda Blanco in the works starring John Leguizamo.

So, we have two different movies about Griselda Blanco. This thread should focus on the one with Catherine Zeta-Jones, and if a moderator is feeling helpful, please rename the thread to Cocaine Godmother.

There it is. Catherine Zeta-Jones as Griselda Blanco.

Steve Buscemi might not be Khrushchev, but he’s got that same Russian energy. 😁

The movie is titled Scarface so if there's a moderator lurking, feel free to update that.

Here’s a shot of Leonardo DiCaprio.

1. A movie where Al Capone speaks English.👎

And it doesn't stop there. There's a short promo out where, from what I can tell, the journalist (S. Johansson) and Al Capone (L. DiCaprio) speak this mix of English and Spanish—something like "Good morning, Mr. Capone"—before switching back to English with what I'd call a Colombian accent. (Think of that French-accented English you hear in All Creatures Great and Small.) It would actually make sense if the journalist herself wasn't Colombian.

2. He's being played by an actor who stands 5'11".👎

I'm still waiting for a decent film about Al Capone.
The Godfather in Movies ·
I checked IMDb and it looks like Catalina Sandino Moreno is taking the lead role in Maria, replacing Catherine Zeta-Jones who was previously linked to the project.

As for the rest of the cast, we've got John Leguizamo. There’s no official word on his character yet, but my money is on him playing Pablo Escobar. 😁

Drew Sanchez82 said:Wtf? 🤣
Is this some kind of spin-off of The Godfather?


Not quite, though there is a connection. 😁 Specifically, the fourth and youngest son of this particular lady boss goes by the name Michael Corleone, and he's the only one of the four still standing today.
I don't know, I just can't get into these Marvel Studios superhero flicks. All that stuff with Spider-Man: Homecoming, Iron Man, and the rest of the crew.

I I’m requesting that a moderator delete this, lock it, or just do whatever they need to do to make it go away.

It isn't just that the thread title is an eyesore; the actual writing looks like something you'd find in a Facebook comment section from seven years ago.
Caught that one a couple of days ago. It was alright. I expected a bit more skin, honestly.
Best subtitle software? in Software ·
I'm looking for a subtitle editor similar to the one built into YouTube. Something simple that just gets the job done.
In Memoriam: Marlon Brando (1924–2004) in Movies ·
To film Apocalypse Now, he was supposed to be in peak shape and actually read the book > had recommended beforehand. Instead, he showed up thirty kilos overweight and hadn't even cracked the spine. As a result, they had to shoot his scenes in semi-darkness.

It’s been two days since we marked the 13th anniversary of this legendary actor's passing.

Al Capone (2020) in Movies ·

IMDb ) Quote : The 47-year Old Al Capone, after 10 years in prison, starts suffering from dementia, and comes to be haunted by his violent past.

A new film about one of America's most infamous gangsters—Al Capone. I assume everyone knows why he made a name for himself, but that won't be the central focus here. As noted above (via IMDb), the story covers the final chapter of Capone's life. However, I'm a bit confused by the claim after 10 years in prison since he wasn't actually behind bars for a decade. Still, we'll see.

Who is playing him? I haven't attached a photo because production hasn't even started yet; slapping a random headshot on here would just look silly. The lead role goes to Tom Hardy.

The project is currently in pre-production. It's being directed and written by Josh Trank, whose previous work I haven't seen.

When can we expect it? Maybe 2018.

@yoga73 Honestly, just stop messing around with Microsoft Outlook and head straight to gmail.com. Log in there and send your emails from the browser instead.

Hi there. Honestly, your best bet is to get a school IT admin involved to handle this. If you want to tackle it yourself, you can find plenty of tutorials on YouTube explaining how to reset a password without needing the old one. What OS are we dealing with? I’m guessing it’s either Windows 7 or maybe even XP?

Sent you a DM.
@SmartFart He’s still singing, just not with this band anymore. On this final tour, he’s sticking strictly to the AC/DC catalog—one last hurrah. Once the tour wraps, he's closing that chapter for good to focus entirely on his solo material.

I’m a bit too young to have lived through it, but those early 80s albums are top-tier for me. Honestly, Lemmy and AC/DC from that era are my 🙏

Best to you and the kids. 😁
Concert Bucket List in Music ·
There are plenty of options, but if I had to put anyone at the top of my list right now, it would be Bruce Springsteen. As much as I’d love to catch him live, I’d want to see Steven just as badly. And, obviously, hear them play. 😁
