I could swear the "flow" joke came from Jackie Martling, but I couldn't find a clip of him telling it.

We started watching Zero Day With Robert De Niro.
It's really good so far and very different from the kind of role I'm used to seeing him in.
It's kind of a taught, political, mind-fuck thing.

Finished Prime Target on Apple TV (only cuz the wife can't stop watching something when she starts). It went from pretty good to just ok.
I watched it a couple of weeks ago. I agree it's a different role than normal. I can save you time and tell you who are the bad guys?
Has anyone brought up Landman yet?
It's another Taylor Sheridan show on Paramount Plus. It's not as good as Yellowstone but I'm enjoying it quite a bit. I'm on episode 6.
Billy Bob Thornton plays a modern-day Texas oil Man who works for John Hamm a billionaire oil baron. Also, Demi Moore is in it. I think she's Jon Hamm's wife or something but they don't use her at all. She's criminally underused.... At least in the first six episodes.
It's heavy drama with some comic relief that's a mix of family, work, lawyer stuff and cartel illegal stuff. Shit that comes along with the modern fictionalized oil business. If you have Paramount, it's worth watching. If you don't have Paramount, I'm not sure it's worth the agita of signing up just to watch it.

Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan starred in Freaky Friday, Disney's 2003 remake of the 1976 film that starred Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster. Curtis and Lohan return in Freakier Friday, which will open in theaters on August 8. Disney today released a preview:
I saw previews for it when Yellowstone was wrapping up. We haven't watched it, but maybe we'll check it out.
We just caught up with Hacks, by finishing season 3. I can't recommend it enough; it's brilliantly written, hilarious, and full of surprises.
We are also very involved with The White Lotus. It's hard to wait a week for each new episode. And without giving anything away, the storyline of the finance guy (with the wife and 3 kids) keeps me up at night.

They actually filmed a scene at a diner in New Smyrna Beach FL, where our stepdaughter is a cop. That was quite exciting. Also, Lewis Hamilton was a consultant for the race scenes.
However, I'm not holding my breath. Hollywood has a way of fucking-up every attempt at a racing movie. The only good racecar movie was Grand Prix in 1966, directed by John Frankenheimer. He also directed the awesome car-chase movie Ronin in 1998. Ford vs. Ferrari and the 2023 movie Ferrari - which took place where we stayed in Modena, were also good with the race scenes.
I highly enjoyed Ford vs. Ferrari, the only other 'racing' movie I've seen is Days of Thunder, I've been meaning to see 'Rush' about James Hunt and Niki Lauda, but I've heard a lot of that is bullshit.

Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
A couple of years ago my son and I saw this one:
en.wikipedia.org
It was ok. He liked it more than me as he was into the gaming part. I am not a big race fan (I like NASCAR crashes) so it didn't grab me that much. It was cool it was a true story and the guy it was about was the stunt double for the racing scenes.
Gran Turismo (film) - Wikipedia

Just skimming through, some of the race venues are interesting.A couple of years ago my son and I saw this one:

Yeah, it wasn’t that great. That being the reason I avoid racing movies, beyond Ford vs. Ferrari, and that was because I knew the history from Top Gear/The Grand Tour and shows like that.
As far as I know, Gran Turismo is a really cool racing video game. Maybe it's the name of an actual race somewhere Scotch you probably know, but I know it as a video game.
Video game movies almost always suck. I like those resident evil ones but that's just cuz the chick was super hot and the movies were so stupid they were fun.
The only good adult video game adaption I can think of is the last of us. That gay episode with Ron Swanson aka Nick Offerman was the best TV episode I've ever seen in my life. And I'm not exaggerating there. It is my all-time favorite single episode of television. I know I rambled on and on about it in one of our threads.
I can't think of any other video game adaptation that was more than mediocre.
EDIT:
I found my post ranting about that episode. You know what I searched for? "It has everything Zombies love story" usually DRC searches are a pain in the ass, but with those key words it was the third result.

I think the prototype movie was "Days Of Thunder".
Gran Tarismo was tied to a game but really wasn't a game adaption.

In naming cars and types of cars, GT stands for Gran Turismo. It's kind of a blend between a sports car and a luxury car.
It's also a class of racing cars. The GT class is a hybrid of a street car and a race track car. Some of the cars that do endurance races like the 24 hours of Le Mans are types of GT cars.
