Mr_Danger Posted November 28, 2021 Posted November 28, 2021 Serves him right for no showing the film festival at Aberystwyth college my class went to on a trip and us having to sit through a seminar from the My Little Eye guy instead. Quote

But 2049 was hugely successful critically and with audiences that did see it. I don't see why it's such a stretch that it would be on there, especially considering it's a recent film. Yeah, also since its release it has been more and more appreciated as a film. For a film magazine poll its going to appeal, Quote
WyattSheepMask Posted November 29, 2021 Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) Considering that magazine polls tend to just be populist opinion and considering how much praise it got upon release, I’m genuinely surprised that Joker didn’t make into the list. Obviously it shouldn’t be placing higher than Paddington 2 in any situation, but still surprising The Dark Knight at #4 though, Jesus Christ Edited November 29, 2021 by WyattSheepMask Quote

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted December 10, 2021 Paid Members Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) A film that had terrible test screening scores and had re-shoots which didn’t improve the final products, won’t get a cinema release!?! 20th Century Fox cancelled Lady In The Window and sold that to Netflix rather then release it at the cinema. That was a pre Disney decision so it’s not unheard of. The only disappointment in this story is the deeply awkward press tour it wouldn’t have been given. Hey, if your lucky and if they are able to sell it Netflix as twitter says, you don’t have to give old Uncle Walt your money. Edited December 10, 2021 by Hannibal Scorch Quote

Glad to see someone in the Malcolm household has taste. Slightly joking, I hate those fake christmas jumpers, mainly because it is just a cheap screen print, rather then a tacky all over print chsitmas jumper. But do love me some Danny Elfman, so atleast it is a good film to represnt.. Edited December 13, 2021 by Hannibal Scorch Quote

SaitoRyo Posted January 6, 2022 Posted January 6, 2022 Peter Bogdanovich, director of The Last Picture Show and Paper Moon, has passed away aged 82. He was an at times snooty and very self-assured director not without his flaws, but he made some cracking films and played his role in my favourite era of American filmmaking (New Hollywood/the American New Wave). As well as the two aforementioned films, Targets, The Thing Called Love, Texasville and The Cat's Meow are also enjoyable in their ways. His exhaustive Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers documentary is fantastic, too. RIP. Quote

That's out of your tree talk, that is. Quote

That's out of your tree talk, that is. I'll be honest, nostalgia plays a big part here. One of the first action films I saw was the copy my Dad taped off ITV (in two parts either side of the news) so that makes a difference. Plus I'm really not a massive fan of the first one. It's great, but I prefer the other two to be honest. Quote
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted January 6, 2022 Moderators Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) Number 2 is shit. Also there's no Hudson Hawk on that list. Edited January 6, 2022 by Chest Rockwell Quote
Factotum Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Vengeance is close, but it will always be second best. As a kid I absolutely loved 3, but Rickman in the first and Willis being charming as fuck makes it the best. That list is horse shit anyway as most of those from The Guardian are. THE LAST BOY SCOUT should always be in a Willis top 5. Joe Hallenbeck is his best character for me. Quote
