Morning Large - how's the diet going?

"Easy to see how anyone expecting Don't Look Up to be anything other than funny in a resigned, shrug-your-shoulders sort of way would be disappointed. But if you are looking for an accurate commentary on how politicians and the media deal with a proper existential threat when their only concern is the most narrow self interest, and on the resulting behaviour of a disorientated and leaderless public, then you will appreciate it. It really is the film of our times."

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

"Hammer and Pickle 11:14 Mon Dec 27 Actually, I watched longer than I thought. 40 minutes. I might give it another go as I like Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill. It just seemed like unfunny Saturday Night Live political satire that would have been better tackled by Armando Iannucci or Chris Morris."

Encanto was good. The whole family sat down to watch it. Unheard of these days

Jaan Kenbrovin 7:41 Mon Dec 27 Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021) I managed 15 minutes before turning ‘Don’t look up’ off. Absolute garbage. It's good - and Streep has an excellent role as usual.

One for the family .... 4k as stunning as I have seen... https://www.theguardian.com/film/2021/nov/27/encanto-review-disney-musical-animation-lin-manuel-miranda

"Watched die hard earlier , can’t believe how overrated it is"

[jfk]

"Popped out earlier to the pub with the missus and kids,had a couple of pints,tucked into leftovers and watched suicide squad a rare decent watch on sky movies. Wouldn’t bother watching marvel /superhero type films but must say really enjoyed it."

"Yep, thoroughly enjoyed No Way Home - was great fun"

[Mad Dog]

"Agree no way home was superb. However just got back from seeing ""the King's man"". Quite different to the others but very good. (Although it does contain the easiest to spot plot twist in cinema"""

[Feed Me Chicken]

No way home is brilliant and just goes to show what turning off the Woke does to the movie industry! üí∞

[zico]

"Joe - Enjoy, I think the Tom Holland re-boots have been great fun."

[Joe C]

"zico - agree with you on all of that. Especially ‘No Country Fir Old Men’, which bored me greatly. Off to see Spider Man: No Way Home in a bit, looking forward to that"

[zico]

"Joe C 1:36 Mon Dec 27 Indeed, it would be a boring place if we all liked the same thing. I find I can appreciate something without actually enjoying it and it was one of those for me. Bit like the Coen brothers films, in general they just aren't my thing but I appreciate the artistry that goes into it. No Country For Old Men for instance I didn't enjoy at all but can understand why many did. Di Caprio and Lawrence are good actors though. Watched The Revenant again and found that fantastic again second time around."

[Percy Dalton]

Manuel Agreed I also watched Polanski's Oliver Twist by far the best version.

[Manuel]

"I finally got around to watching A Wonderful Life, never fancied it before even though it always gets voted as the bestest Christmas film ever made. Maybe it hasn't aged well as I didn't think much of it, but the last 20 mins were really good and it does send quite a powerful message that you should be grateful for what you have and things can always be a lot worse. Watched Oliver Twist again last week, which I think is a great film/tale. The Roman Polanski 2005 version is the best one with Don Logan playing Fagan."

[Mad Dog]

Robocop and starship troopers are superb films

[Joe C]

"zico - if everyone liked the same thing, it would be boring fella. Watching it like a Robocop or a Starship Troopers and as an Americanised commentary on the media and the politicising of dire situations it worked really well. Glenn Close and Jonah Hill were what spoilt it for me as unnecessary characterisation"

[zico]

"Joe Interesting how we all have different tastes. I was just about to post how bad I thought it was, gave it 40 minutes then wound through to the end to see what happened. Was wondering why such stars put their name to it but there you go we all like different things. Obviously just not my thing."

[Joe C]

"Just watched Don’t Look Up - enjoyed that. Can totally see that’s how American media would react. Di Caprio and Jennifer Lawrence we’re great as the leads, but Cate Blanchett steals every scene she was in"

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

DoD I love all that Arthurian stuff. I thought Green Knight was an absolute pile of steaming poo. It wasn't helped by the fact that everyone in any way associated with the production appears to be a massive woke cսnt.

[zico]

"Manuel 4:58 Sat Dec 25 I think the ending ruined Muscle as an ending does to many films. WTF did those photos show??!! I like Fairbrass films generally and as you say he plays the roles well. Sat down last night thinking somehow Netflix had got the latest Spider Man. 30 minutes in I realised it was Holland's first one which I'd already seen! Still enjoyable, although I'd rather sequels went back to the easier to understand 1,2,3 format!! I hope they don't, but if they did ever remake Back to the Future they could do worse than have Tom Holland in the title role."
