I’m a bit of a movie buff…


Dec 11, 2022, 12:29 PM

And just got done watching The Postman. I thought it was ok, slightly above average, but reviews aren’t that great and it didn’t do well at the box office. In hindsight, I think the movie would have done better had more people just gone to watch it.

If anyone makes a movie about Clemson basketball and there is a scene where Brad gets fired, I will buy a ticket for the catharsis.

It had a huge budget and was extremely well promoted.


Dec 11, 2022, 12:35 PM

It’s a far different scenario than a movie that isn’t well funded to begin with, and thus has a much lower chance of success.

Don’t even bother watching the 13 sequels either. I’m hearing good things about Postman 14 though as long as they keep their entire original cast and bring in a few underrated new actors.

Isn’t that the definition of doing better? Or am I missing the sarcasm.

I saw it in the theater instead of Titanic and thought it was pretty good.

I love watching movies, and I thought the Postman was a decent movie, it beats 99% of the BS that come on regular TV IMO. Actually, about the only thing I watch on regular TV is a few things that discovery channel, and CNN news. Back to the Postman, the movie had several pretty funny parts in it like Ford Lincoln Mercury character, but hey, I have watched it 3 times in the past 6 months for the lack of anything new or better that I haven't already seen on Netflix, Showtime, Stars, Prime video, or discovery+ a half dozen times.;)
