  1. Not the three hours some predicted but still the longest Bond yet. Hope it's good enough to justify it.
  2. Please just have linear plotting this time round. Jumping all over the place in the first season was neither clever nor interesting.
  3. Seeing Blackkklansman recently I immediately understood Nolan's faith in Washington - he has a very watchable, immediate presence. Nepotism ain't all bad.
  4. Good to see that Neo finally looks like Jesus. (And dammit, I'm starting to get slightly excited for this.)
  5. The only reason I can see anyone wanting this film is if they believe Naughty Dog will never make another Uncharted game and this is the only fix of the franchise left to them.
  6. If this doesn't feature Holland casually killing hundreds of people followed by a wry quip then it's not Uncharted.
  7. Lol, so this is actually called The Suicide Squad? That's a neat way of hinting that the last one didn't count.
  8. Three was an twistedly excellent 3-part BBC production of this 5 years ago that rekindled massive interest in expensive Christie adaptations. I'd be surprised if this is any better but it certainly has star-power potential.
  9. Another strong recommend here. It's fast-paced, funny, moving, and Patel is a natural star.
  10. So I guess the new format for videogame adaptations is going to be the characters coming into our world, Roger Rabbit style? Seems to be the only one that's successful.
  11. Just saw it. Yeah, it's a good film. There's nothing I can add that hasn't already been said, but it's certainly the most interesting Best Picture winner in a long time.
  12. But did Justice Smith have a Jurassic Park t-shirt on and say how she 'admired' the grossly understaffed park from the first film in which 2 employees were brutally killed by security breaches? Nope.
  13. Nah, at worst the JP3 characters were forgettable. Johnson's character, on the other hand, was nothing more than a vehicle for the JW writers to say how awful the film's own audience was for even wanting to see it.
  14. I replayed the early Sonic games recently and was shocked to discover how bad they were. They actively punish you for going fast, which is its only USP. No wonder Mario won the war.
  15. I quite like it, the minimalist moodiness is daring. Although I can probably put to bed any lingering hope this movie will be a 'fun' sendoff. It's a bit weird the Craig era didn't have a single great song.
  16. After seeing David Copperfield the other week I'm starting to feel like Dev Patel has had the most interesting career of any male actor under 30 that I've seen in a long time. He's really good at picking projects.
  17. This is definitely the least excited for a Bond film I've ever been, but that's ok. Having zero expectations for a movie before going in is probably the healthiest way to consume it. All I ask is that it doesn't get bogged down in bullshit and tells a simple story. The set pieces can be as wacky as they like, just keep the bits in between them coherent.
  18. I'm irrationally irritated by this because an invisible man, by definition, wouldn't cast a shadow.
  19. I mean... Lucy was crazy popular overseas; the rest of Johansson's success has been as part of the MCU machine. Which is also why this will get over a billion.
  20. SMH at Irishman still being thought of as 'lower tier Scorcese', by the way. It was a perfectly understated way for him to cap his gangster oeuvre.
  21. Huh, didn't realise that was him. So I have seen a Bong film. And yes, it's good.
  22. Looking forward to a character in Matrix 4 wearing a t-shirt with the logo of the first film...
