| 22639 | Last Movie You Watched | Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2<br><br>Funny and thrilling. There's just a couple of problems: <br><br>1: It didn't have that Die Hard feel the other one had. 2: Why the heck did this take place in a hotel instead of a mall?!<br><br>3 stars.<br><br><br> | Mr Magic | Aug 02, 2015 | ![]() |

| 22636 | 2015 Summertime thread. | Where I lived a lot of people would send their kids to summer school for "baby sitting". The kid didn't really need to go. But if the parents knew they were somewhere for a few hours a day and got a free lunch they would send them. <br> | pikachulover | Aug 02, 2015 | ![]() |

| 22632 | Retro-Daze let's get healthy! | Kroger's was offering FREE small pieces of pumpkin pie today, for some promotion called Pumpkin Pie In July! Naturally, I couldn't resist.

| 22629 | Last Movie You Watched | Lock Up (1989)<div><br></div><div>9/10 Really great prison movie. I hated the dirtbag warden(Donald Sutherland), the guards(except for the two good ones played by John Amos and William Allen Young) and the warden's convict lackeys. And it's so good when Sylvester Stallone gets his revenge on them and makes the warden admit to everything. Great music score by bill conti. And i just miss movies like this. I don't get the same feeling from most newer movies that i get from stuff like this and from this time.</div> | Jrs1991 | Aug 02, 2015 | ![]() |
