Lisa Marie’s Week In Review: 7/8/24 — 7/14/24

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

It’s been a rough week.  My Dad, who had been in a physical rehab center since the end of May, was finally kicked out by his insurance company.  (I appealed the decision, to no avail.)  He’s not doing well.  On both Friday and Saturday, he fell and had to be taken to the hospital.  

As a result, I am exhausted so I’m going to ask your indulgence as I tell you what movies I watched this week and then call it a post.  This week, I watched:

  1. The Bone Collector (1999)
  2. The Clones (1973)
  3. Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II (1987)
  4. Hollywood Man (1976)
  5. Swamp Thing (1982)

Rest in peace, the great Shelley Duvall and the great (and misunderstood) Shannen Doherty.

Live Tweet Alert: Watch Swamp Thing With #ScarySocial!

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

As some of our regular readers undoubtedly know, I am involved in a few weekly live tweets on twitter.  I host #FridayNightFlix every Friday, I co-host #ScarySocial on Saturday, and I am one of the five hosts of #MondayActionMovie!  Every week, we get together.  We watch a movie.  We tweet our way through it.

Tonight, for #ScarySocial, Deanna Dawn will be hosting 1982’s Swamp Thing, directed by Wes Craven!

If you want to join us on Saturday night, just hop onto twitter, start the film at 9 pm et, and use the #ScarySocial hashtag!  The film is available on Prime, Tubi, and a host of other streaming sites!  I’ll be there co-hosting and I imagine some other members of the TSL Crew will be there as well.  It’s a friendly group and welcoming of newcomers so don’t be shy.

Uneasy alliances and surprises unfold in the Captain America: Brave New World teaser!

Posted on by Leonard Wilson

I stumbled onto this while going through my music playlist on YouTube, and I had to figure out if this was an official teaser or was just a fan-made one. Sure enough, it appears the official teaser for Marvel Studios Captain America: Brave New World is available.

Picking up after the events of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (or Captain America and The Winter Soldier), the film shows there are numerous changes & surprises afoot. Our long time Hulk adversary, Thaddeus Ross, shaved his mustache and changed his look with Harrison Ford taking over the role from the late William Hurt. It also looks like Isiah Bradley (Carl Lumbly) and Joaquin Torres (Danny Ramirez) have appearances.

Can the New Captain America handle these new threats? What is going on with Isiah? And will we finally get some information on that defeated celestial from The Eternals?

Captain America: Brave New World is set to hit theatres in February 2025.
