Yep there was a lot of bombs

Coco. The best animated movie. Best song.. remember me.

Frankly saw this last year at the cinemas and disnt enjoy it.

2nd time round I was blown away. It's a very deep and colourful movie. The Mexican culture was expressed fully to my appreciation. The sound track was on point.



Coco also set ( or completed the set of a new record in the movie industry)
So this is pretty big, yet buried, news. Tonight, Robert Lopez won an Oscar for co-writing best original song Remember Me from Coco which means he is now a double EGOT.

An EGOT is someone who has won an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony. According to Entertainment Weekly, he is the first person to ever manage it twice. There are only 12 people who have managed it once


2nd pic is of George Lopez and Kristen Anderson-lopez.

introvertme:
The main actor did a better job in the movie L.A confidential

Memento isn't the type of movie someone should see in a cinema,I wonder how people managed it when it was released.

true its something to watch and rewind and watch.

so finally got to see black panther and i agree its just okay.

marvel is doing a good job of milking the MCU for all its worth.5.5/10

and its for micheal b jordan
