The Film Thread

[Tredman]

I’m continuing to watch films I should have watched ages ago - just finished Lost in Translation, it’s ace.

 

[The Bear]

Agreed. One of my favourite films.

 

[Templeton Peck]

Dr Sleep is excellent. Great performances and a brilliant villain.

' Last Christmas may well be the worst film of the year'

Never judge a film by its reviews, what's shit to some people may not necessarily be shit to others. Loved this one, made me laugh, cry, loved the music, and had a bit of a surprise which I wasn't expecting.

Unfortunately the lady sitting next to me at the end didn't feel the same way. Turned to me , said something like ' Well that was bloody cheesy wasn't it '

Watched Rambo: Last Blood last night. Bloody nora some of the deaths are a bit graphic!

 

[Paul]

Do you think Brie Larson would mind slumming it with an overweight middle aged bloke in Hednesford ??

Surely the point of a film like that is to be cheesy? What was she expecting!

I know. All I said was " i'm surprised you managed to see or hear much of it, you've got through a family sized bag of fucking Revels in the time it's took the film to play "

I always seem to sit by movie munchers

Have just seen the trailer for 1917, looks good

 

[Templeton Peck]

Rise of Skywalker: I wish they'd got Rian Johnson to direct it.

 

[BillyDee]

Just out of Rise of Skywalker. Absolutely loved it. Glad I went to see it on my own, as I did get rather excited at times...

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Going to see it tomorrow afternoon. Can't wait.

 

[PPB]

Lost Christmas with Eddie Izzard. Loved this one. It's now added to my all time Christmas Film List.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Tarantino at his self indulgent best.

 

[The Bear]

I liked it. A bit long and meandering but worth it for the mental final act.

 

[leedswolf]

Eastwood's 'The Mule' was pretty good too.

Yeah, plus the Bruce Lee fight and the hippy changing the wheel.

 

[The Bear]

I liked the Bruce Lee scene. People didn't half get their knickers in a twist about it though.

Why?

 

[The Bear]

His family said it was a disrespectful representation and untrue (what he claimed), and everyone piled in saying it was a typical representation of him by "white Hollywood".
