We (finally) saw "Hidden Figures" last night! Very good movie. A little bit long, but very educational about the (bad old) days of segregation and the excitement (and fears) of the Kennedy years/space race, and empowering for (smart but forgotten) black women who overcame a lot.

Yeah Jurassic Park was terrifying as a kid! I love it now though. The music gets me every time!
MyranLynne I loved Hidden Figures. I really liked Kevin Costner in it. Not seen him in much in a long time! Good cast and well done (agree about it being a little too long though, especially with all the math stuff ). The Bodyguard was on TV here the other night....such a guilty pleasure!! __________________

Yeah so crazy how many musicians we're losing lately.
I watched this Korean zombie movie over our Canada Day long weekend and I really enjoyed it. It was called Train to Busan. __________________

Yes, loved the Bodyguard, everyone wished they were Whitney Houston - but turns out being her wasn't that great, sadly. What a voice! Kevin Costner was very cute when he was younger, like in Bull Durham (?). He was good in Hidden Figures. Although my husband laughed when he saw Jim Parsons from 'Big Bang Theory' in there, playing a smart but pissy scientist (what he usually plays).
We went to see 'Despicable Me 3' yesterday, even in the theater! I'd seen coming attractions for it and it looked funny and cute, and it was. Hubby was a bit grumpy paying theater prices to see a 'cartoon' movie. And MLette had the day off and surprised us/came over so she went to the movies with us too. We didn't bother with the 3-D; hubby and daughter don't like 3-D movies, maybe because they wear glasses? IDK. 2Ds are enough for us! __________________

I don't like 3D either! I think it's a waste of money, especially in kid's movies. Hehe I want to see that movie - the minions are so funny!

My family thought the Minions were the funniest part of that movie. But we watched the Minions movie, and that wasn't so funny - they are good for comic relief, not so much as the main characters I guess.

I've only seen the first one. I took some kids from the rural town I worked/lived at in Ghana. They were amazed.

I know, it seems there is nothing original these days! Lots of remakes or superhero/comic style movies.
