  1. legend has it Hackman's character in the conversation is the younger version of his character in Enemy of the State
  2. lest we forget that much of what made Costner movies good was Kevin Reynolds. Will likely check this one out soon as the price is getting closer to right
  3. not the one with the blue-haired pixie former crawfish festival queen with an aversion to brassieres. She was a bit much
  4. yes had to take advantage of 71 degree days to dig a 100' trench to carry away the foot of standing water in the backyard
  5. This movie eluded me until yesterday. Recently listened to the Herzog episode of WTF Pod and sought it out. Worth the investment of time. If you haven't seen it, go in cold, then read about it after. Mind-boggling filmmaking
  6. El Califa de Leon. Named in honor of the great bullfighter, who was the grandfather of a good friend from college. Not to be confused with Califa tacos, which is the hipster CDMX torchy's analogue but slams
  7. SSG recently opened Elro iirc I believe Maximo is one of Benjy's now after they acquired El Topo
  8. froggy's or whatever the hell its called has one of the best CFS I've ever had this side of the school cafeteria
  9. On a similar note, Western Addition, which owns Il Bracco and Balboa on Post Oak, was started by a group of former Hillstone's group people. A buddy I went to high school with is part of the team. We went to the soft opening for Balboa and enjoyed it. Il Bracco has become a regular spot for us.
  10. ask the East India Company
  11. Can I announce that I am from the internet and receive privileges? The LeLaurie Mansion is one of the niece's must-see attractions
  12. Taking our niece to New Orleans Louisiana in a couple of weeks to celebrate her recent matriculation from college. It’s her first time so we’re doing more tourist stuff than usual - voodoo tour, ghost tour. Sunday night reservation at Commander’s (surprisingly, I have never been), Monday night probably a port of call burger (rip yo mama’s), tuesday tentative for Compere Lapin. We ate there last trip and it was finominle. Good enough to go back, but I am willing to take a swing on something else if anyone has had their mind blown by a meal in the Crescent City latelyi Targeting Cochon Butcher, LPG for lunch. BreakfastsTBD. Staying in Garden District
  13. Fantastic film with a turrible script. I've had "I Can Dream About You" stuck in my head for a while because it's on the in-store loop at HEB. Love this movie. It's a shame it bombed and the Tom Cody trilogy never got made.
  14. If they're going to have an Asian Bond, he should be Desi
  15. Been a fan of the theatrical release for a long time (owned it on VHS!). I wasn't aware of all the drama surrounding the production and the firing of the director, Brian Helgeland. He was later able to release the director's cut which has some significant narrative and stylistic departures from the theatrical release. Can't say it improved an already great film, but it's worth a watch. It's on Amazon Prime presently
  16. Beef fajita party pack for one, mixed torts, refried beans, extra guac instead of rice. Monday night staple from Mr. Tiempo for ~$30 easily feeds 2. At 290 location they often give you the big queso...
  17. I rented a Ricoh GRIII for our recent trip to Italy.
  18. we saw them doing some sort of kick off event in one of the Piazzas in Florence and I was utterly perplexed. This explains
