It was also ~1600lbs compared to closer to 3500lbs in the bronco.

Hopefully it's like the Twisted Metal TV show which turned out way more entertaining and enjoyable than any video game movie has a right to be.
re: Why movie theaters are failing. Yes, Hollywood is making mostly trash, but that's not all.

Where does AMC say that?
PHM was the first time I've been to the theater since Oppenheimer but when I bought my tickets from AMC it did specifically say that in one of the screens during checkout.

This. Not sure what the pin weight is on your new camper but you will run out of payload capacity quick on a 3/4.

Of my 50 years on earth this is honestly the first time I could ever tell you who won the NIT tournament. War Eagle I guess.

Regardless if you like the story line or not the movie is rewatchable just for the incredible cinematography and score.
The economics of the movie theater no longer work for casual movie going. I remember in the 80's-90's our friend group would randomly decide to go see a movie on a random day look at the paper to see what was playing and at what time and randomly go see something. Going to a movie was cheap enough we would throw $4-5 at a movie we knew nothing about. Casual movie going has been replaced with streaming. Mid to low budget movies that used to show up at the theater are now showing up on streaming. All these giant 13-14 movie complexes are now outdated when the modern theater really needs to be 1-2 IMAX quality screens and maybe 3-4 good quality regular sized theaters.

I went to bed when we were up by 12 with less than a minute left. I guess I missed some butt puckering frustrating end of game play our guys are known for :lol:

It wasn't a "few things". It was a shitload.
Again, I enjoyed the movie experience a lot. Just disappointed in some big things not even being mentioned or barely mentioned.
Movie didn't feel long to me, despite the runtime.
The Audiobook was ~16 hours long. The film is 2.5 hours long. Of course a lot of material is going to be cut. The question is what's the least you can have in the movie and make it a faithful interpretation of the book. I think they did a pretty good job for the most part.
Posted in the thread. :cheers:
Book reader took my wife and 17yo son to see it and they had zero clue about the movie neither having even seen a trailer. Wife was super pissed for a moment thinking Rocky had died :lol: If he stayed dead we probably would be divorced today.
Both the wife and son really loved it.
I understand and accept most all of the changes they had to make to fit it into a 2.5 hour movie. I do think it would have worked better and not really taken much more time if they had followed the book a little more and had Grace put rocky back into his environment after Rocky saves him

Probably a dumb question but did the two astronauts kill themselves or die of some other cause?
Somewhere on the internets I recall reading a quip where Any Weir mentioned the reason those two died is the seeds for an idea for a sequel to PHM but the whole idea is really far from being able to be made into a book. Did I dream that up or does anyone have a reference?

It's the new DOCH variety not the tried and proven VTEC model. Might be OK but not enough long term data on this version yet. Cam phaser, hydraulic lifter, and VCM issues don't tend to show up until you get closer to 6 digits on the Odometer.

WTF are yall bitching about race and gender. Looks like a dumb and stupid but entertaining mindlessly violent and often humorous film with an incredibly FAF lead actress kicking Satan worshipers arse with some quirky Wes Anderson style wide flat symmetric shots. Sign me up. We need more films like this.

If you’re looking at an older truck, look for the V8 in the 16-18 year.
Normally wouldn't consider a Ford Turbo anything but the owner was a family friend and would be getting it at a steal. It's completely bone stock and obviously wasn't driven much considering the milage and year.
