    Ooohhh...so that's why he's a chimpanzee.

    So being an ignorant American I never heard of Robbie Williams, and just like everyone else in America when they announce the movie I thought it was Robin Williams until I saw the trailer. Then I was even more integrated to see the movie, though for the obvious reason of the lead being a chimpanzee.

    And man, Better Man did not disappoint me. Usually when a musical bio pic comes out it's usually someone…

    I'm not saying Tamatoa made the first movie, but I did like this less and he's not here at all soooo...

    Look, aside from a boost in animation (which the first one was already impressive) there really isn't anything in Moana 2 that the first one did better.

    So I guess true crime podcasts have always been a thing.

    Well with careful planning (and not eating anything until my 2pm showing) I didn't have to pee until the last 30 or so minutes. Even then, I didn't want to miss a thing because Killers of the Flower Moon is just that good. Martian Scorsese really out did himself with this. The story was engaging. The runtime is used very wisely and paced beautifully. Not once did I feel…
