He's a global treasure. What a fantastic decade he's had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried to see The Peanut Butter Falcon but started too late unfortunately Edited October 20, 2019 by Hannibal Scorch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted October 23, 2019 Author Paid Members Share Posted October 23, 2019 Just been to see Abominable, which was wonderful. There are no great surprises in it but there's a real tenderness in the characterisation and storytelling that are the hallmarks of most of the best animated films these days. Great voice work from Eddie Izzard as well, especially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted October 24, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 24, 2019 Terminator Dark Fate Whoever said it was like the Terminator version of the first new Star Wars film was spot on. Visually and story wise It hits every Terminator trope, some you probably don't even notice; truck chases, Terminators treading on things, visions of the future with endoskeletons strafing gunfire, Terminators imitating people, new scary updated Terminator tech etc. Like the new Star Wars it also has a couple of beloved heroes from the original returning alongside a new pair who are essentially replaying roles from the first film. I liked Grace a lot but Sarah Connor made the film and I'm still not ready to see a Terminator film that doesn't have Arnie in it. It's the 3rd best in the series but that's not exactly hard. It definitely had nothing new to say but if they are going to make another unnecessary sequel to my favourite films ever I'm glad at least it felt like a Terminator film. They did John Connor dirty though, fucking hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted October 24, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 24, 2019 Tim Miller doesn't seem to step outside the box he created for himself with Deadpool though, does he? There was a lot in there - structurally, visually and even down to the camera work - that was ridiculously interchangeable between the two movies. Equal parts magnifcent, equal parts Genisys level of gik, it was what it was. Enjoyable enough, but I think the soul of this franchise has been jockeyed up its bum and spat out it's own mouth. I was put on the back foot - and almost annoyed for the remainder of the movie - at the start with the complete massacring of John Connor. Kind of Alien 3's the franchise...

I had to make a conscious effort not to let it ruin the film for me and it still kind of did. My sister will be so gutted, T2 John Connor is her hero.

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted October 24, 2019 Author Paid Members Share Posted October 24, 2019 Oh fuck, the Deadpool guy directed this? I didn't even realise. Really deflated my hopes for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Factotum Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 I enjoyed it. Arnold just oozes charisma the moment he comes on screen. I thought the main character was the weakest part. She was distractingly bad. The 3rd best Terminator movie anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted October 25, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 25, 2019 Dolemite Is My Name is so good. So, SO good. I just smiled and laughed throughout. Eddie Murphy has rarely been better than this, and just goes to show you how talented, funny, charismatic and sweet the cunt is, when he has something he's passionate about. Just fucking magnificent. I was going to watch Girl on the Third Floor tonight, but I've decided I'm watching this again. And probably will, for the next five or six nights.

Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted October 25, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 25, 2019 To echo Scott, Dolemite Is My Name is such a good time. It's got it's flaws but watching Eddie Murphy in this sort of form carries it. Some cast too. Definitely the biggest surprise of the year because a Netflix-made Eddie Murphy movie, on paper, should be an absolute pigsty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 I'm glad to see so much praise for it, just about to stick it on now. The original Dolemite is brilliant and needs to be watched too, also The Human Tornado and Petey Wheatstraw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
