Last movie you watched?

[CureTheSane]

Orphan: First Kill. Didn't se ethe first movie, but this one seems to be a stand alone anyway. Actually a great movie with a couple of decent twists.

Day Shift. A good movie again witha  couple of unexpected developments.

Vengeance. Was pretty mid up until about 2/3 the way inand then started getting good. Twist at the end was unexpected and cool.

Thor Love & Thunder. Ive enjoyed the Thor movies, but this one was boring to me. Im thinking this may be the last Thor movie?

Pinocchio with Tom Hanks. It was ok. I didnt like it as much as I thought I would. Id rather watch the animated one.

Yuuup!

Taika Watiti is my favourite director, at the moment, but I guess even he had to make a bad film. It did not feel like one of his films, at all.

Pinocchio was shockingly bad.
Watched it with my wife and daughter who also thought it was very poor. They like the original.
They hated the woke stuff in it, and the changes to teh story.
I just tuned out.
even Tom Hanks was average.

Thor was ok, the goats made it.

Prey was pretty good, more like the original Predator. That something so tame, cultural wise, angered people is amazing to me. They want to erase history, or at the least prevent any representation of it.

Elvis - meh, boring. Would prefer a proper Elvis biopic.

The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent was really good. Nic Cage at his best.

A friend of mine told me that also,and I have enjoyed em all particularly the last one... I have the new one lined up to watch at the weekend for my youngest son's birthday, he's looking forward to it.

Last movie I watched was Prey on Disney...hmmm not bad...but could've been quite a lot better...boring places and great in others. Then we watched The Crow a few nights ago..its a classic to me...one of my very favourite films...some parts have not held up well...but as a film it's still a good show.

It's on Disney+ up here in Canada, too. We, and I'm guessing the UK, don't have Hulu. That content gets picked up by Disney+.

Should I move to the Great White North. LOL Nah Michigan gets cold enough for me, and usually too cold. It will eventually show up on one of the other streaming channels anyway.

The west coast never gets as cold as Michigan.

It was my son's birthday yesterday ,he had a list of films that he wanted to watch on Disney+ ,so we ended up watching Malificent , Bobs Burger movie , Thor : Love & Thunder and Lightyear. Enjoyed them for what they were..actually Thor & Lightyear were not as bad as i'd been led to believe from friends, not amazing but enjoyable.

Looking forward to Andor beginning tomorrow though,it looks excellent.

The Bob's Burgers Movie was actually pretty good. I love the series, but was skeptical that they could make a decent film. Thankfully, I was wrong.

Yeah it can quite usually be the death knell to shows...hopefully not in this case.

Bullet Train (2022) - despite average reviews I really liked this flick....

[Doug]

"Where The Crawdads Sing." I had also read the book. Recommend both.

[lettard]

Usual Christmas movies over the last week or so...but we binge watched Wednesday on Netflix...enjoyed it,really good....I still have only got half way through Andor...it has disappointed me greatly...roll on season 3 of The Mandalorian.

I watched the first episode and thought it was ok. Did you ever see the fan-made web series, also called Wednesday, on the YouTubes, years ago? That was phenomenal. The girl who played Wednesday was perfect, so maybe that's why this new series didn't interest me as much.

Hoe. Lee. Shit.

Are you fucked?? 

Andor is the best Star Wars thing since the Holy Trilogy! Absolutely fuckin' loved it; I immediately binged it a second time. It is everything I wanted from the Star Wars IP: good world building, cool new characters, great acting, intriguing story, and most importantly, no Jedi!

I would say finish the series. My brother-in-law wasn't impressed until halfway through, and then ended up loving it.

Never seen that Youtube Wednesday...

I can't be bothered to revisit the first, but I'm looking forward to seeing the new Avatar.

I was distracted/not paying enough attention the first time I saw it, and as such left feeling like I didn;t really understand what it was all about.
I probably got bored fairly early.
So I committed when rewatching it. lucky it had been 12 years.
Movie was actually pretty simple, don't expect too much from the new one.
Will see it in 3D as others have told me to.

Jebus..no-one watched anything since January  

Took my youngest Son to the cinema to see Super Mario Bros The Movie on Tuesday...really really enjoyed it...didnt think I would but I did,some nice elements that made me chuckle and I suppose it helps that I Know who most of the characters are...loved the Shy Guy & King Bob Omb parts...small but nice touches.

Then I took my two oldest Son's last night to watch John Wick Chapter 4...for me probably my least favourite of the four...I remember know one I knew having a clue what I was talking about when the 1st came out and now they all do... once again nice elements to this one and as usual the fight scenes are outrageous and the look and feel of the settings first class...just over long and drawn out as opposed to the others in the franchise ,that originality that I loved from part 1 has been consumed along time ago...but I still really enjoyed it...for what it was...an all action leave your brain at the door (I'll) kill them all(as John himself would say) by the looks they haven't left this one open at the end like the others...or have they?
