Nothing this week.
Re-watches...
-Drive (2011) (Jan 7th 2019) - 7/10 (my 8th viewing of it. basically this would be my most re-watched movie released in the current decade. it peaked at a 9/10+ after my 4th viewing but then started it's decline to a 7.5-8/10 then eventually it's current score. given two of the directors movies have dropped off for me(listed below) this is the only movie of the directors (Nicolas Winding Refn) that stands out)
-Only God Forgives (2013) (Jan 7th 2019) - 6/10 (this is my 4th viewing as prior to this it was a 7/10)
-The Neon Demon (2016) (Jan 8th 2019) - 5/10 (my 3rd viewing as prior to this it was a 6-6.5/10)
-Street Kings (2008) (Jan 9th 2019) - 6.5-7/10 (was a solid 8/10 prior to this viewing and took a hit this time around but still manages to hang on the fringes of My Favorite Movies which is my Top 187 movies)
-S1m0ne (2002) (Jan 10th 2019) - 8/10 (within my Top 51 movies. in fact, this along with A Man Apart (2003) are the only movies I score a 8 or higher that have a 6.2/10 or less average rating on IMDb. both have a 6.1/10 average on IMDb.)
-The Karate Kid Part III (1989) (Jan 13th 2019) - 6/10 (the only movie of the series I mildly like as I used to think the 1st movie was fairly strong back-in-the-day. I think the bad guys help boost this over the first two movies. my previous viewing of this was Oct 6th 2014)
p.s. in general for me... 5/10 or less = Thumbs Down. 6/10 or higher = Thumbs Up.
side note: I have re-watched a total of 97 movies from Jan 1st 2018 through Dec 31st 2018 and... 16 movies increased in score while 28 movies decreased in score. so basically 45.4%(or 16.5% increase, 28.9% decrease) of everything I re-watched in the entire year of 2018 altered in score either up or down. so far there have been 5 movies in 2019 that changed in score.

Hey
Drive 8/10 still his best for me
Only god forgives 4.5/10 I like the visuals and score but not much else
Neon demon - 5.5 some good performances , Keanu is bad though
Karate kid 3 - 6/10 solid enough capper to the trilogy
