I saw that one at the theater, a movie based on a board game where your supposed to sink a battleship, but they are sinking an alien ship.

"Midnight Special"

Title may not sound like one that should be talked about here (and why it's named that god only knows), but it's just a weird somewhat sci-fi movie.

Although it kind of forgot to explain a few things.
Spoiler:
Such as how the boy with the freaky laser eyes from another dimension that overlaps (and can apparently see) ours ended up born in ours in the first place. WHY the beings from that place watch us. And what place did this kid even have in the cult the film spends very little time even acknowledging.

Also why didn't his Earth parents tell their child they loved him, etc., like they looked like they wanted to, before he was gone.

Mostly this film was about running away from the government so he can return to his other dimensional home, while trying not to get hurt by him in the process.

Starts off annoyingly slow, but gets better. Although where it starts feels like there is a missing half hour that was cut out...

Split. It's pretty good, my favorite things were the two main characters and that it had somewhat same feel as to some older classic thriller movies. The opening credits set the mood perfectly.

Tales of Halloween. A collection of 10 short stories all centered around Halloween that really should have only been 3-4 because 6 were absolutely atrocious.

Justice League Dark.
Boy... and I thought JL vs TT was great. This is even better! In one hour and 15 minutes it introduced a bunch of new heroes by showing how badass they can be. I didn't even know who or what Constantine is, and I knew even less of the other heroes, save for Batman. This movie sold all the characters to me like nothing before. 10 out of friggin' 10!

Aliens (1986).
It was a fantastic movie! The special effects were top notch, and seem really good even today! The story was great too, expanding on the first movie, and adding to the mythos. Wholeheartedly recommend.

Aliens is fantastic, I like it better than Alien honestly. Paul Reiser is such a smarmy piece of trash in that movie.

Max Max Thunderdome is one of the worst movies I've ever seen, literally forced myself to watch through it the whole way through instead of stopping halfway. There are select parts of the movie that are interesting, the whole beginning part in Barter Town and the Thunderdome match....then halfway through it goes to hell...and to complete hell once the kids show up.

Jesus Christ. Then the movie just goes on and on...and then end. What the hell did I just watch...

A Beautiful Mind. Solid acting in a solid movie. I don't know what else to say. It's good.

The Last Dragon. I remember liking it as a kid. It's not very good. but I do like Sho Nuff, that was probably the only redeeming thing in that movie and the epic GlOW scene.

I saw Predator (1987) last night. I'm happy to keep being impressed by these older movies. The special effects were great, the story was phenomenal, and I got attached to the characters.
Another instant classic I'll love rewatching in the future.

That terribly 'controversial' new Ghostbusters movie.

Better than I was expecting after all the nonsense about it. Is it as good as the original... not really, but it didn't really feel like a true remake to me though either; stands enough as it's own thing that it was fun enough, and really it could have worked just as well to put it in a different city and suggest it was a new branch of the company.

I did like the diversity of the women, and a "girls will be girls" vibe which you don't often see.

Maybe it was just my low expectations, but I didn't find the characters too obnoxious or anything, they were just fine.

I watched Justice League Flashpoint Paradox man that is an intense movie. I like that Flash was the main character in the movie. One of the better DC Animated movies.
