Loved this movie; apparently Kroc's wife gave away much of the fortune they had accumulated upon his death?
I'm looking at reading the Ray Kroc biography to check if the movie was true to his recollections of what actually unfolded:

Yes and no. They wanted to expand, but that first contract screwed Kroc. The whole idea would have failed, they wanted their cake and eat it too. Really well done movie, not my kind of thing, but I loved it, Keaton was just fantastic in it. And so was Laura Dern, man she has played such a range of parts.
Watched that at 6.30, so picked another, Passengers with Jennifer Laurence, ugh, that's two hours I won't get back, bloody stupid. _________________ You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either! |

Watching Star Wars - Rogue One at the moment and I am totally lost of where this film fits in the Star Wars theme/story. |
It fits within the original Star Wars movie.
Remember when the female Rebellion leader makes mention of the sacrifice of many brave individuals to bring them the plan for the Death Star. _________________ He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD! |

Mcfarland with Kevin Costner, just a fantastic gutsy true story - our player list should watch it, then maybe remember the titans, followed by the grid iron gang! _________________ You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either! |

Watched "A Dogs Purpose", starts slow but it's an enjoyable movie. Have box of tissues handy. |

If anyone loves The Rocky Horror Picture Show then don't watch the Fox 2016 remake.
Truly awful outside this, the opening scene.

Kroc's own fault for not checking his percentages properly on the first contract; but he levelled up the score though! Bunch of weasels.
And I watched Passengers FOR Jennifer Laurence; OMG she is utter filth.
How I LOVE her so. Guess you didn't like either of Interstellar, Gravity or The Martian, by that logic? _________________ M I L L A N E 4 2 forever |

Interstellar wasn't bad but probably for Matt! Gravity truly sucked, and I'm not into potatoes, even mars ones! My favourite scifi is starship troopers! Don't mind avatar, star wars and the newer star trek movies.
I'm more of an action girl!
Hunger games movies are brilliant, Love Con Air, under seige, die hard, speed, fast and furious, xxx, that kinda thing! _________________ You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either! |
