What a smile. Pure positivity and killer energy on that stage 🙏 🙏 🙏 ("Private Dancer", 1984)

Rest in Peace, legend! 😢

What a voice. Pure charisma. Unmatched stage energy. And those legs. 🙏

She was 60 years old here. 🙏

One Last Time Live in Concert (Wembley)

In January 1988, Turner performed in front of approximately 180,000 at Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, setting a Guinness World Record at the time for the largest paying concert attendance for a solo artist. 🙏

Karen Ortiz said:Anyway, this performance is incredible. Such an insane voice and energy.
'Steamy Windows' (Live in Barcelona, 1990)

And this Bond theme is killer. 'GoldenEye' (1995). Her appearance in the music video is everything. 🙏

It's a damn shame I never got the chance to see her live.

AMC runs "The Good House" every now and then, and HBO does the same with "Call Jane." You can also find both of them sitting in their video libraries.

Caught this on TV a while back. The first movie definitely goes overboard with the drama, but it was actually a fun watch. Honestly, I didn't find any of the characters particularly grating.

Honestly, this performance is absolutely killer. Her vocals and energy are just next level.
'Steamy Windows' (Live in FC Barcelona, 1990)

And this is one of my all-time favorite Bond themes: 'GoldenEye' (1995). Seeing her show up in the music video was iconic. 🙏

It's a damn shame I never got the chance to catch one of her concerts live.

Heartbreaking 😢

Gone at 62

Tina Turner says goodbye to her late son: "Closing my eyes in grief and thinking of you, my beloved"

Tina Turner shared a touching tribute on social media to say goodbye to her son, Ronnie Turner.

Ronnie was found Thursday morning outside his house in Los Angeles. His neighbors tried to revive him, but it was no use.

No official cause of death has been released yet, so we don't know if it was linked to a previous cancer diagnosis. His wife, Afida, confirmed the tragic news by posting a series of photos of him on her Instagram.

His mother, the 83-year-old legend, later posted a black-and-white photo as a final farewell to her son.

"Ronnie, you left this world too soon. In my grief, I close my eyes and think of you, my beloved son," she wrote.

This tragedy comes just four years after the singer's older son, Craig, took his own life in July 2018. Turner had Craig when she was only 18, following a pregnancy with saxophonist Raymond Hill.

Just caught "The Good House" at AMC Theatres. Honestly, I dug the movie, and the character Hildy Good and her whole arc really worked for me. 🙂 Sigourney Weaver was masterful, obviously, as per usual. 🙂

"The Good House" just hit AMC Theatres. 🙂

"The Good House"

Original Name: The Good House
DIRECTORS: May Forbes, Wallace Wolodarsky | GENRE: comedy, drama
CAST: Sigourney Weaver, Kevin Kline, Morena Baccarin
RUNTIME: 102 min | YEAR: 2022 | COUNTRY: USA |
RELEASE DATE: 09/29/2022

PLOT SUMMARY:
The story follows Hildy Good, a high-strung real estate agent and descendant of The Salem Witch, who lives for her wine and her secrets. Her world starts falling apart when she rekindles things with her high school sweetheart, Franko Getchell, and gets dangerously tangled up in someone else's reckless behavior. As long-buried emotions and family secrets come to light, Hildy has to face the one person she’s been dodging for decades: herself.

The movie is based on the bestselling novel "The Good House" by Ann Leary.

Just rewatched this after ages. Still hits just as hard. 😁

Max is an absolute icon, pulling off that fake Russian accent right before deportation to impersonate Tensy. 🤣 That restaurant scene is peak—watching her eat meat with pure disgust while chatting up the waiter "Yeah? / Yeah!" and trying anything to dodge singing in Russian.
"It's such a joy to hear my native tongue again. I deeply appreciate what you say and what you don't say, eh?"
Then there's Tensy pushing those cigarettes like they’re high fashion, making Max recoil from kissing him because of the smell, even when she brings him back to life by inhaling that smoke. 😂

When Tensy wakes her up saying he’s got a gift, she jumps and blurts out "what?" only to realize she dropped the accent, so she repeats the shock to fix it. Then comes the personalized lighter. 😂

That moment where she begs Dean for another shot, playing dumb and acting sweet while he's threatening them both, only for him to shut her down? She drops the act immediately and snaps "fine!" 😂


😂

brighteagle39 said:Top-tier comedy. One of the best. The whole cast kills it. Sigourney is legendary, and I also love that restaurant scene where she has to sing. That's easily her second best moment. Number one is obviously when she's fighting him in that tiny shuttle as Ripley in the first alien movie, crawling into the space suit.

What about this scene? 😬

Karen Ortiz said:Her latest flick, "The Good House," is hitting the big screen at the Sundance Film Festival. Check out the info on The Good House. It’s hitting the Sundance Film Festival.

Me, obviously. "Avatar: The Way of Water." 😬 16.12.

Karen Ortiz said:My Salinger Year

I watched this a while back. The premise is actually pretty interesting, but the movie drags way too much. It gets boring at times, and honestly, Joanna was just exhausting—I never really found myself rooting for her character at all. Sigourney Weaver is, as usual, absolutely stellar. Her character feels like a total mashup of Katharina Parker from Working Girl and Miranda Priestly from The Devil Wears Prada.

Her newest flick, 'The Good House,' is hitting the lineup at the Sundance Film Festival: https://www.tiff.net/events/the-good-house

Principal photography is scheduled to begin early next year in the Southern United States.

Sigourney Weaver and Joel Edgerton have actually worked together before in "Exodus: Gods and Kings" (Tuya / Ramesses II).

After all those endless posts about Sigourney Weaver, people are really out here obsessing over typos. 🙂

Noah Roberts46 said:Recently saw The Ice Storm. She plays a cold-hearted bitch perfectly. The movie itself is actually pretty good, just weird.

coppersailor28 said:Most of this is just heavy Adobe Photoshop (left side of the image).

They try to "smooth out" faces in movies too. Total nonsense.

"A Monster Calls" was incredible, but it unfortunately flew under the radar.

She’s aging with dignity.

They went way overboard with the Adobe Photoshop: https://twitter.com/SigourneyWRuss/s...615744/photo/1

Happy 71st birthday to the queen herself, Sigourney! 😍

Sigourney Weaver Raves Over Joaquin Phoenix's 'Joker' Role: 'His Performance Was Unbelievable'

Kevin Kline (my favorite actor) and Sigourney are filming a new movie, "The Good House" 😎 🎉
I thought they were awesome in "Dave" and "The Ice Storm".👍

She’s iconic as the action legend Ellen Ripley, but lately, she’s been killing it as Dr. Augustine in Avatar.

In my book, she is massively underrated. The Academy just keeps overlooking her, even though she’s been delivering flawless performances for years.

She’s my absolute favorite actress; I’ve honestly sat through entire movies just because she was in them. Take Ridley Scott's Exodus: Gods and Kings—I saw that in theaters, and even though she only had a brief appearance, she still stood out. 🕺 Then you have the mediocre stuff like Abduction and The Cold Light of Day, or the total trash that was The Assignment, but she still managed to be great in those too.

She was phenomenal in Copycat, and especially in Snow Cake, where she teamed up again with the late Alan Rickman after that genius comedy Galaxy Quest.

She completely blew me away in A Monster Calls.

She’s just so Charismatic. I love catching her interviews on YouTube.

The opening film for this year's Berlin International Film Festival is My Salinger Year.



Found a solid article in German.
It argues that she’s way more than just her most famous role, highlighting how awesome she is in comedies. It also mentions how she wishes her other work got more credit, specifically noting that she was snubbed for her best performance, which the author thinks was in The Ice Storm by Ang Lee.

Happy 84th birthday to the absolute legend, Lady Julia Andrews 😍

"Le Jazz Hot"

Just caught this movie on TV.

Solid concept, but yeah, it drags. It starts getting tedious right after Margaret dies.
The character played by Elizabeth Olsen felt totally unnecessary—even if she did eventually figure out the trick Robert De Niro’s character was using at the end.
That ending twist, "You can't deny yourself forever," was actually pretty sharp.
But honestly, they glossed over Margaret's death way too much. They mention she succumbed to an illness—showing some shots of her taking meds—but before that, Ty had this massive blowout fight with her and said some real nasty stuff. The actual death scene itself felt unfinished.

Overall though, it's a decent watch. 🙂

silvertiger11 said:Good movie, but it gets boring toward the end.

brightcobra21 said:I'm with you!

And I was a bit let down by how rushed Sigourney's death was, but since I have a soft spot for Robert De Niro, I'm still satisfied with the flick.
