I just watched Missing off of Jeff’s recommendation, and I totally loved it! But it’s incredibly obvious why Jeff didn’t like the ending, lol!!

(We were there for MI: DEAD RECKONING PART ONE. No spoilers, but... I have strong opinions and not necessarily the ones I expected to have. Can't wait for your review).

Just a comment re OPPENHEIMER: we saw the trailer last night at the same Dolby Atmos theatre where we first saw TENET. The sound mix was exactly the same, by which I mean to convey that we could hear hardly any of the dialogue in a trailer full of dialogue. Portentous earthquake-level rumbling, to stadium rock concert levels. If this represents Nolan's intentions for the film and not a theatre error, I'm out. It's one thing in a high concept thriller. A serious drama about a serious man who changed the course of history? Give me audibility or give me BARBIE.
