It's a film about Jesse Pinkman? Hardly telling you Darth Vader was Luke's father is it!

Cheers for the Breaking Bad spoilers, chaps...

It's been around for 11 years :icon_lol: Get a move on!

 

[The Bear]

Yeah it ended nearly 7 years ago. You can't moan about spoilers after that long.

Watched Clerks for the first time yesterday - I’m definitely a bit late to this, but it was great.

It's crazy how that film crosses cultural lines. It's practically drowning in New Jersey culture.

New Jersey has culture?

Tbf its off the era when I went to university, so probably chimes with me very well. That attitude and lifestyle isn’t / wasn’t confined to the US.

Certain parts of Jersey are like a country unto themselves. It's a really wild state.

I’m currently in LA, quirkiness and culture would definitely help here.

It's there to be found, but you have to go to the places that the average American would tell you to avoid.

I went to a brilliant second hand bookstore this afternoon which was great, but in general it just feels soulless. And way too many people with obvious problems on the streets.

It's a tough place, honestly. Trying to enact social security policies in a country that won't fund them federally has nearly bankrupted the state and, as a result, many of the well-intentioned plans have backfired.

Couple that with Hollywood's economic grip on LA, and it's a cocktail for nastiness if you slip up financially for even a second.

Must've changed in the 20 years since I lived there then. I found it a placid and lovely place to live bar the obvious places not to go like Newark and Jersey City.

Lost count of the amount of times I’ve seen that film. It’s class.

Newark’s OK, having said that I only spent a few hours there. Perversely it was 20 years ago so you’d have been around :icon_lol:

Pacific Rim Uprising

I thought the first film was entertaining enough - sort of like the live action Transformers film I always wanted to be made instead of the awful Michael Bay shite. A decent, entertaining flick. Then someone decided to write a script my 9 year old daughter would scoff at, and some else decided that was good enough to make a film out of.

Absolutely dreadful stuff, shit acting, and the whole thing is just a complete mess which makes no sense and destroys the legacy of the original.

I really hated it.

 

[BillyDee]

I watched the first one. Well, I say I watched it but everything was so dark I didn't have a clue what was happening.

 

[Deano]

New Joker film is brilliant.
