I have not heard good things about Engines, but Alita sounds like a good time?Sadly, fully concur.
Next up for me is Mortal Engines and (finally after multiple delays) Alita: Battle Angel.
Same here regarding Engines, but it’s on my list. Alita does look like it has great potential.I have not heard good things about Engines, but Alita sounds like a good time?

Wife is taking me to see Will Ferrell as Holmes later today. Hoping for a good laugh, but keeping my expectations low.
When articles are being written about a movie being most notable for the number of people walking out, it’s probably best to keep expectations low.
Well... that was something. Certainly don't think it deserved a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, but it wasn't one of Ferrell's better efforts by far. There was a lot he could have done to spoof Holmes, but it ended up a wasted effort, devoid of originality, that came across as a madlibs-style script. There were a few moments but they were overshadowed by gags that overstayed their welcome and several current events jokes that landed flat.
Wait to see Holmes and Watson until it gets to cable TV.

I was being niceNot even then.
Please report your findingsMrs. Brewingfrog and I are going to see it tomorrow.
Events conspired, and we didn't make it. We were both a little peeved that all we had to choose from was a mid-afternoon showing and no other options.Please report your findings
Watched a documentary called Operation Odessa.
It’s about 3 guys involved in dealings with the cartels as they negotiated a submarine deal with the Russians after the Soviet Union collapsed and everything was for sale, including Russian helicopters, subs, etc.
Fascinating.
