68.) THE GODFATHER - ends in 1955
If no one has one in mind for 1956, there are several good ones for 1957, including one that ends in '57 that I presume is obvious to the Reverend (as its inclusion would behoove the mission of this website).......

Off Topic Discussion / Re: Debunked historical facts?...
Last post by indianasmith - Today at 07:56:15 AMFDR knew about the Pearl Harbor attacks in advance and let them happen to draw the USA into World War II -
This cynical take is quite popular among revisionists, but the truth is that no one knew an aerial attack was coming. Army intelligence knew the Japanese were up to something, but most were expecting some sort of coordinated sabotage targeting Hickam Field's Army Air Corps planes, or perhaps a torpedo attack on the fleet by Japanese submarines. No one predicted an all out aerial assault by Japanese aircraft carriers.
But the warning signs were significant enough that FDR sent a warning on Saturday, Dec. 6 that war with Japan was imminent and that the base needed to go to high alert, but the senior Army and Navy commanders in Honolulu had still not acted on the warning the next morning when the bombs began falling. To say that FDR knew the attack was coming and did nothing is a grave disservice to the memory of a great man.

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by indianasmith - Today at 07:49:56 AMDO NOT ENTER (2026) - This was a pretty cool found footage film about a group of Instagram urban explorers who break into a hotel where gangster Meyers Lansky supposedly hid some $300 million of his loot, only to find the place is haunted by something not quite human. Really well done overall, although the ending was a little cheesy. A solid 4/5.

Bad Movies / 2026 Box Office Disappointment...
Last post by claws - Today at 02:12:14 AMQuoteSeveral high-profile movies have significantly underperformed or outright bombed at the box office. While 2026 has seen major successes like Toy Story 5, Project Hail Mary, and Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, several big-budget studio bets and franchise entries have struggled mightily:
Desert Warrior (IMDb: 4/10 RT: 26%)
The Situation: Widely cited as one of the most staggering financial disasters in modern cinema history. Backed by a hefty $150 million production budget, Rupert Wyatt's historical action epic barely scraped past $740,000 worldwide following its release, failing to capture any meaningful audience traction domestically or internationally.
The Bride! (IMDb: 5.6/10 RT: 57%)
The Situation: Warner Bros.' monster-themed feature proved to be a complete commercial mismatch with audiences. Despite a sizable $90 million budget, it was met with total theatrical rejection, pulling in a meager global gross of around $23.9 million.
Supergirl (IMDb: 5.9/10 RT: 52%)
The Situation: DC's latest comic book tentpole struggled to find its footing with moviegoers, stumbling out of the gate with an opening weekend performance that heavily underwhelmed relative to its massive overhead and promotional footprint.
Moana (2026) (IMDb: 5.8/10 RT: 31%)
The Situation: Disney's rapid-fire live-action adaptation hit a wall with audiences, many of whom questioned the necessity of remaking a modern animated hit so soon (especially following recent franchise installments), leading to a heavy underperformance.
The Mandalorian and Grogu (IMDb: 6.9/10 RT: 60%)
The Situation: While Star Wars remains a powerhouse, Disney's big theatrical jump for the franchise faced audience fatigue. It tracked to become one of the lowest-earning theatrical entries in the history of the Star Wars galaxy.
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (IMDb: 7.2/10 RT: 92%)
The Situation: Sony's continuation of the horror franchise struggled to turn a profit, bringing in just over $58 million globally against a $63 million budget—falling short of the typical multi-fold threshold needed for a studio release to break even, despite relatively solid critical marks.
Does a financial flop make it a bad movie? Not always.
Some would argue that Spielberg's Disclosure Day belongs on the list, but apparently it wasn't that much of a financial flop.

Press Releases and Film News / Re: RIP Vincent Pastore
Last post by Trevor - Today at 01:50:42 AMQuote from: claws on Today at 01:44:57 AMNever watched The Sopranos or Goodfellas, not familiar with most of his other work. Regardless, RIP.
His character in Sopranos was the only one, along with Bobby Baccaleri, who I actually liked. The characters seemed genuine and the actors made them so.
