TIGERSTORM

I watched Point Blank a year or so ago and I really liked it. I bought The Outfit when it came out on 4K earlier this year but haven't watched it yet, might check it out tonight.

I find Westlake adaptations to be a mixed bag. The Hot Rock with Redford is really good and captures that book well. No Other Choice, the Korean movie from last year, was great but I've never read that book.

I'm planning on checking it out tonight. Looks good.

I was working at Blockbuster when this movie came out. One night a car pulls up and a girl comes in and asks if we have The Boondock Saints. I look and find we have a few VHS copies for sale (for some reason the DVD rights were weird and we never got them, I remember calling around and found a store that would order it but it was going to be like $60) she buys it and goes out to her car. She doesn't leave and someone else gets out and comes in and buys another copy. After he leaves I went and grabbed a copy and bought it for myself because I had never seen that happen before.

I watched it and loved it. I also recommend the documentary Overnight about the writer and director Troy Duffy. What an a-hole this guy was and he basically made nothing from the movie iirc. He signed a big deal with Miramax and was such an arse that they didn't let him make the movie, he eventually gets distribution from another company but has no rights to home video sales.

Good. I have to assume this marks the end for Infantino, right? Or was his term almost up anyway?

I agree. I have posted and visited here less the last few years because of it.

Now being reported that she died of AIDS.

Bump.

This is live now. I'm out of town but plan on checking it out when I get back.

Heading that way in June to stay at a cousin's place while he's out of town. What's the food scene like in the area?

Cutter's Way

I watched the first two episodes and I liked it but it felt like something was missing. I'm not sure if I needed him to be like 10% more likeable or if it was the supporting cast.

I did just read the first RJ Decker novel last week so I'll probably pick the show back up soon.
