Check out Leaving Las Vegas.

Yeah, I've seen it. Depressing, but a good movie.

Have you seen 'Snake Eyes' lately? I remember seeing it when it came out and thought it was good, but have no idea whether it still is, but I have an itch to find out. I do recall they cut out a big tidal wave sequence in the movie (that cost fortune), but kept the dialogue in referring to it so the scene near the end didn't really make sense. I now have no idea if it is a good or bad movie or if Nicolas Cage's performance is good or bad...

I haven't seen it in a while. I remember having the Nic Cage argument with my aunt and she convinced me to watch Moonstruck to get a better since of Cage's acting range. It was a nuanced performance. Then I rewathed "The Rock" and was like WTF?!? My feeling is he's acting equivalent of Jason "White Chocolate" Williams. The talent is there, but you need the right coach/ director to point him in the right direction.

It was very depressing, but your right, it was a very good movie, still his best performance..

Check out "CLICK BAIT" on Netflix and "13 hours" on Prime

I feel enough time has passed to say this out loud, as much as I hate reggie Miller, I really liked that pacers team with Artest and Jermain O'neal and Stephen Jackson - it was one of my favorite non-Knick teams

It’s been 10 years since he had to deal with Dolan and Isiah trying to tell him how to do his job. That de-ages a person

Might have to try and get a PS5.

I try and look on it as there only being a month until training camp. However, I got a PS5 a couple of months ago for times like these! Been catching up on ps4 games mainly, like Assassin's creed Origins (which I liked a lot, which surprised me as the only other Assassin's creed game I'd played was the third one, which I hated so much I never tried another one!)

you don't play 2k, mlb the show, madden?

You still doing advanced scouting via 2k?

Last week I waited on line at Best Buy. Got there at 6AM, walked away with an XBox Series X (ticket) ~7:30. So not the PS5 I was hunting for.

10 minutes ago I got a PS5 online at Best Buy. If anybody gets on ASAP you may have a chance.
