    Ocean 8, was my last one, and eventhough remakes with an all female cast can be a dud, (Ghostbusters a good example) this was actually pretty good.

    Worth watching, renting, and maybe buying.

    Ok, genre, Oceans 11, type format, (crime/black comedy) based around a heist in Paris, well thought out storyline, and leaves the last ghosties in the dust.

          Just watched Spider-man Far From Home. I think it's the best Spider-man movie so far.

                Oh, I'll see it (we're trying to fit it in this weekend), but I doubt I'll be overjoyed. I hope I'm wrong.

                  My prayers go with you Dan.

                  Tried to watch Toy Story 4, recently, but the school holidays had started in AU, (we don't bother with that 4th July guff) and even a 12.50pm session was almost full.

                  I wasn't going to sit up the third row from the front, and wasn't going to go and see it after having missed the first few minutes.

                  And the Pixar cartoon at the start,....can't miss those.

            I haven't seen Spiderman yet. I'm looking forward to watching it.

            The last movie that I watched was Avengers Endgame. It was an excellent movie. I'm a huge Captain America fan

            Has anyone seen the new Spiderman movie?

            I saw American Sniper. It was good.

          Last one, Silent Running, 1972.

          https://www.google.com.au/search?sou...10.-yL_xxQUD9E

          Still a great movie, and a movie that thankfully cannot be remade, not without destroying it.

          My brother recently went on a working tour of the US, and chatted to Douglas Trumbull, the director of that movie.

          I also told him to bring some US currency back with him, since l always enjoy a good laugh.

          Au currency is much better since it is plastic and bounces more, (l found $50 a few days ago near my car, which pinged out of most likely a womans purse) and obviously left my details in case a cold stricken pensioner dropped it, but l should be in the clear.

          Probably take a look at this one tonight.




          I missed the IMAX one, sniff.

          And after seeing my brother recently, he did mention that the producer of Silent Running, 1972, may do a remake, IF, he gets the funding together.

          Not crazy about that idea, since remakes tend to not work.

          And l also learned don't drive on the wrong side of the road and approach a roundabout when jetlagged.

            I'd never heard of Silent Running so I looked it up. Here's the opening line from its Wikipedia entry:

            Silent Running is a 1972 environmental-themed American post-apocalyptic science fiction film
            I also looked up information on the remake.

            Silent Running (1972) is a sci-fi classic with a strong environmental message. The Earth is no longer viable for plant life, the forests have been put into domes on giant space crafts in the hopes of one day bringing them back to Earth. But with corporate interference the project is scraped and the ships are ordered to destroy the domes returning the space crafts to commercial service. One man (Bruce Dern) takes it upon himself to protect the last forests of Earth. The message of Silent Running seems more important than ever and Invasion of the Remake puts it through their patented remake treatment to try and make it more relevant for today's audiences.
            https://invasionoftheremake.libsyn.c...bVSejPocMRs.99

            And this:

            Few sci-Fi films manage to approach delicate subject matters with as much decorum and emotion as the 1972 space adventure Silent Running. The environmental messages that film brings is just as relevant today as it was back in the 70's. With a global effort to save our planet from the destruction seen in the film, a re-make would resonate much more NOW then ever before.

            Now that I know about this film, I'll look out for it. Looking forward to the remake as well.

              Silent Running is one of my favourite movies. You can probably get to see it online or on Netflix, definitely worth a look.

                Nope. Just checked. It isn't on Netflix anywhere in the world. Not on any of the other streaming services available here either.

          Just finished watching Apollo 11, and blown away pretty much covers it.

          An easy 9/10.

          It was just like being there, eventhough l live in Australia, and was three at the time.

          And l did try to watch some commercial station version, but it was mainly chatter and enough videos of the actual rocket, etc, to stop viewers from falling asleep, (usual crap in other words).

          Yes, grew up with that one, with Soylent Green, Omega Man and Planet of the Apes of course. The 70's was the Renaissance of Clever Sci Fi.

          Universal had a big win with a movie about bike riders, (can't remember the name) beforehand, eventhough the budget was tiny, so offered 5 million, (a million each) to 5 producers to do whatever they wanted just as long as it was under a million dollars, (or a cheap budget in the 70's.

          Silent running was one of them and was a big hit, and no wonder with a great soundtrack, believable models and good storyline.

          But blowing up the fluffy bunnies, pffft, well l still like it.

                  Watch it (Silent Running) on Amazon for $3.99, found it easily.

                  Of course Whatty would "Never" do that.

                    No, his style is to go to his nearest Savers Store, (or Salvation) and spend hours sifting through large bins of DVD's hoping to find a copy.

                    The unmistakable odor of unwashed clothing as far as the eye can see, and mothballs won't dislodge him from his quest, nor will little old lady's, carrying overflowing plastic bags of balls of string, asking him where the toilets are, or asking for a date, (whichever comes first) wll deter him from his mythical quest.

                      All clothing at the Salvos is thoroughly washed and cleaned before it goes on sale. And yes, I do buy dvds and books from there sometimes. Not often, but sometimes. You can get stuff which isn't available anymore so there's a good reason to do it. Plus the money goes to help those less fortunate.

                      How interesting. It seems that the Garden Gnome fraternity has teamed up with the 50 Year Olds Who Live With Their Mums Brigade to do battle with me. The only way to interpret that is that by themselves they can't win.

                    Not on Amazon Australia. It is available on YouTube though for $3.99.

                    It isn't a high priority though. I just bought a stack of dvds from JBHiFi and will be watching those before I get around to that. Then after that I've got every James Bond movie to watch in succession on Stan. Then, just to see what all the fuss is about, every film in the Marvel Super Hero Universe is also on Stan. Although I refuse to watch anything that involves insect or arachnid men (Ants and Spiders), nor anything where a nerdy guy turns into a big green hulk when angered. Those are a bridge too far.

          Well, half way through and l hate to say it, but it isn't bad, at least not as a rental, but enduring this for three hours in a cinema, phew nope.

          The storyline doesn't make much sence so far considering that the first movie could have done what they are doing now, since Doctor Strange could have done something similar?

          But without blowing it, l guess they will come up with something?

          Back to the Future, lol, blasphemy.

          But l am sure l will hate it after watching the whole thing, least l hope so, lol,

          Phew, watched it all, and it had a good story, obviously poured on the visuals, spared no expense, and let's just say that Dr Strange putting up his finger at the end, sucked big time.

          And dragging out the end with the fu,.....umm, serious bit, and the family reunion, was fine by me, since l was watching it over two nights, but people sitting in the same chair with a drink in a theatre for 3 hours, poor ba****ts, is all l can say.

          Power corrupts, and some never learn.

            Watched last night. Avengers End Game. A long but excellent movie. No one told me there was time travel in it either which made it more appealing.

            Comments:

            One would have thought that the Supergirl type character would have been able to punch the adversary into oblivion. I wonder how he would have fared against Superman?

            It sets the stage for other characters taking over some roles. This goes outside the boundaries of Marvel comics.Sacrilege.

            It should have ended after the climactic scene with just a brief view of normality. But then, the fate of one more character passing on his device of battle would not have happened.

            Just being cryptic for those who have not seen.

            Interesting CGI showing an out of condition Thor.

              No, the supergirl, one going for the big guy with the glove, would be toast as he only needs to click his fingers and she is gone.

              And the timeline being reset so the green lady hates someone again, was, well annoying.

              And someone who will remain nameless, may come back, as someone who can fix things may show up when his wife is discussing taking a nap, (freezed him, zap him with something, etc).

              Thor was wearing a fat suit. And the actor insisted that he not lose the weight at the end of the movie. It was a good choice, it's funnier that way.

              One thing that bugs me about nearly every super hero movie is the inconsistency of the character's power levels.

              For example, we see Captain America fighting regular guys, and then throwing a motorcycle. Aquaman lifts a submarine out of the water....but fights regular guys without killing them.

              You see Spider-man matching strength with Thanos, but you see Thanos beating the Hulk. The Hulk is hundreds of times stronger than Spider-man.

              You see Captain America actually going head to head with Thanos. And even when these people get hit by a punch that would kill anyone 100 times their strength...they suffer no injuries, and come back for more.

              Of course, if all the characters just had the strength levels in the comics, and it was consistent...the fight would be over in a few seconds. Some of these characters have the power to destroy worlds.

                  This is an example of fluctuating levels of power.

                  Sometimes, you come across as 1% as powerful as I am......and at other times, you come across as 5% as powerful. There is no consistency.

            Agreed, l made the mistake of watching Captain America, at home, and l was literally falling asleep during the boring, stealth wing, giant plane thingy.

            But l have to admit that all fight scenes with superhero's bore me to tears, since as Claude has hinted, they can take a lot, and it is like two blobs on a plate having it out, dull.

            But true Avengers - Endgame had a good story, great visuals, poor temporal mechanic scenaros, (super hero outcomes, l hate it when someone goes back in time and dogs breakfasts character development).

            And removing something,....well, l can't say much, but it sucked, big time.

            "About Time" 2013 (UK)

            One I have missed, the simplest of time travel, no SFX.. A loving father sits his son down aged 21 and tells him in their whole family line, it is passed on that the males have the ability to travel in time. If you go to a cupboard or dark place, clench your fists you will emerge wherever you want to be and at any time in the past. And of course you can come back at the point you left but not the future. No duplicates here. You just re-occupy yourself.

            The son tries it and it works....

            Well I will leave it there.

                Perhaps the wrong impression. It's a tongue in cheek, humorous, quintessentially British movie with none of the pretensions of big budget hollywood Sifi. A love story with a twist. Bill Nighy is the father.

            Yes, Mark, l get British satire, after all we are connected to England, and l just finished watching The Italian Job, but l think that it was the idea of a 21 year old, male going into a dark closet, and time travelling, that has several interpretations.

            The most obvious being going to the moon, although he would probably need a torch and appropriate literature to, (l won't use that word) umm, achieve that end.

            It would not have been my choice but due to my friend looking after her 8 year old grandson for the weekend.

            During the majority of the film (when my eyes weren't shut) I actually found it cute, charming and quite witty, with nods towards the adults.

            The scenes on the moon with the moon buggies, is pretty cool, or l haven't seen too many movies that utilized that.

            Might be worth a look?

            I will probably watch The Martian again tonight, good flick.

              Toy Story 4, great movie as always, and a spin at the end, no one saw coming.

              The dolls in the antique shop, seriously scary, lol.

              And the animation at the start with the rain, impressive for anyone who has an interest in computer animation.

              I am happy to rent this, and l have them all previous ones on DVD, but buying it, don't know?

              Cronicles of Reddick, (thanks Dan) which wasn't bad but got a bit dull at the end.

              Zombieland, not a bad zombie flick, and nothing more satisfying that watches zombies getting clobbered.

              And Bill Murray, does have a cameo role, and is handy with a chair,...as is at the end credits, but probably not worth the wait!

              "The Predator", was my last one, pretty good movie, eventhough the concept is running out of steam,...and unfortunately some of the story development made me cringe.

              Worth seeing as a rental, and eventhough some space scenes are beautiful, overall, l am glad l didn't go to the theatres for this one.

                  But on the good side, the theatre was empty, or the only one there, well there was an uninvited guest there, or a moth, that kept headbutting the projector lenze, and such.


                  Can't say too much, but l would give it 8/10, and they did a pretty good job in how the timeline plays out, and l could watch the jumbo Jet scene over and over, coolest part of the movie.

              Just watched Sonic the Hedgehog, l know a kids movie, but the reviews were better than expected, so l had to rent it.

              A great movie, all up, with plenty of adult one-liners to keep adults interested, with several scenes in the end credits to tie up loose ends, and something at the end of the credits.

              Pretty good soundtrack also, which l will look into.

              Worth renting and possibly even seeing in the theatres, but too late for that now.

              Watched the Latest Star Wars, and l hate to say it, but it was good.

              Certainly worth renting, but l wouldn't bother buying it.

                    Ford Vs Ferrari, with Mad Damien, which is a pretty good movie, and a must see for the car fans, and is cheap to buy, although l would only rent it without blowing any of the story.

                    They didn't give the name of Ford 2, but it must have been Enzel Ford in his later years.

                      Mad Damien is no relation to Matt Damon who was also in the film.

                      Fun fact: Matt Damon's IQ is 160 so he is considered at genius level

                    Good movie and well worth seeing, l personally wouldn't buy it, since it is an action movie, (superhero, Robocop, etc).

                    But a good story-line for this type of genre, and they even take a stab at themselves before the credits roll up.

    a huge buzz, suspense, rumours and wait, MCU Avengers- Infinity war, steeped into theater worldwide. It was the third part of 'Avengers' series which brought most of the Marvel's superheroes together and first time the fans got chance to meet most powerful villain of MCU, 'Thanos'.
    If I have to express everything about this movie in a single line, I would say it was a portrait of Thanos and yeh, it was obviously a villain centered movie in a positive way.

    I watched that last half of ready player one a few weeks ago..

    basicallt i think the date of the movie is 20 years in the future .. where the economy sucks for most people so they live their lives in a virtual world called the oasis ..

    and if you have outstanding debt and are good at game .. a corporation is able to buy that debt and force you to play from what are called loyalty center .. until you earn enough in the game to pay off the debt ..

    after that the plot is better explained in a trailor for the movie than i can do

        I could be wrong however sometimes (especially Americans?) don't know anything about a country/culture until they actually visit there. Most of their perspective is created by the media (etc.)

    Black Panther
    Marvel Comic Heroes

    It is essentially the background story and beginning origins of the Marvel Hero of the same name, how he develops his character, strengths, weaknesses, and scenarios of him utilizing his super hero skills.

    As with all superhero stories, he encounters his first villain, and we see the trials and tribulations he must go through.

    It was ok (mas o menos)...I generally liked the hero and his qualities of virtue and principal. However, as with all movies these days, it was loaded with too much political rhetoric and some of the attempts at trying to be cater to popular mainstream trends was unauthentic.

    However, the back story line is pretty cool, and I liked several of the actors/actresses.

    I would recommend just renting at home on Netflix.

    Before going off the franchise for good take a look at the Death Star one, that was actually pretty good. Available on Netfix and whatever...

      No, just saw Solo, and it was good, but dragged on too much for my liking.

      And yeah, they did push the Kessle-run thing a bit too much.

                Last one l saw was Jurassic Park, part 20, (lost count) which wasn't bad, but the franchise is clearly running out of steam.

                And not even the Raiders type music for the trucks, (Spielberg) and the reasonably sexy red-head was enough.

                The obvious happens at the end, to keep the franchise some more life, but still.

                Wouldn't spend money in the theatres anymore for this one.

                Watched Skyscraper recently, and not a bad movie all up, unless you are afraid of heights then maybe not.

                Typical Dwayne Johnson movie, a good way to kill 2 hours, but better as a rental than actually buying the DVD, if you are not into theatres.

                I have watched Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. To me, it wasn't the best. I love the franchise, but the movie seem a little bit... too forced. Captain Jack feels like played by someone that tries to imitate Johnny Depp. Same with Hector Barbossa, the character didn't felt like him. I personally think that the movie was saved by the new characters.

                Still worth it tho, for a POTC fan.

                The Arrival was my last one, to date, and not bad, but not really something you would go to the theatre for or buy as a DVD.

                Interesting how they showed a possible scenario of how humanity would handle first contact, and how some won't, which is an understatement.

                Fear is irrational and is usually based on supposition, whereby familiarity reduces the fight or flight reaction and allows for intelligent reactions and thoughts.

                Least that is what l got from that one, and flashbacks suck and hording popcorn is a good thing.

                And evidence is self evident, and ...ummm, never mind.

                PS Spielberg helped with directing it, and l didn't see Tom Hanks name, but it is likely he helped out. And yeah, the closeups, were a bit full on.

                It wasn't really what I expected. If you are going, thinking that it's a super hero movie, you'll be disappointed. But as a drama? It was pretty good. A few twists at the end, and perhaps the best acting I've ever seen on screen...from James McAvoy.

                  Another one on Rotten Tomatoes that got 36% from the critics and 77% from the viewers. What a divide.

                  "Glass from the Unbreakable series" is rather a humorous line if you think about it.

                  I read the synopsis and failed to comprehend. Perhaps if I'd seen the previous ones?

                    Shyamalan made three movies in the series. Unbreakable, Split, and Glass.

                    For whatever reason many of his movies get trashed by critics. I've enjoyed every one. He's a gifted story teller.

                      I thought Life of Pi was one of the best stories told in a movie ever and the visuals added to the great story.

                        What's even funnier is that I went on Amazon to buy a copy of the book, and found it for only $6. I ordered it...and when it arrived, it was titled Pi Of Life.

                I read the synopsis and failed to comprehend. Perhaps if I'd seen the previous ones?

                M Night Shyamalan's stuff is always interesting and always strange.
                And yeah, Mark go and watch Unbreakable first, this won't make as much sense if you don't.

                This one just started here, and not so sure if it is worth the price of admission, but probably worth a look.

                  Same here. I do watch T.V. series mainly because they are recorded, so I can always pick up where I left off when the grand children, nieces and nephews finish a visit.


                  My problem is I am a multitask nut job and usually can mix minimal business with minimal social activities both online and offline.


                  Haven't seen a movie in a long time though The Upside interests me, so I might give it a go.

                Just watched the trailer to "Spiderman, Far from home", with groan, and why, being my dominant thoughts.

                I won't post the trailer here, as l don't want to torture members.

                And sure it has shield in it, and is set in Venice, no doubt to milk as much from the comotozed fan club as is possible.

                Ok, here it is.


                As you can see, cliched story, predictable monsters to fight, and wall to wall boredom.

                I would say that the company has well and truely milked the franchise, and is just showing rehashed, til they turn a loss.

                If this comes out on DVD, l will probably give it a miss, l would rather watch Devil Woman from Mars, at least it is fresh and you cannot tell if she takes a few men with her or not.

                Spidy is getting like a blocked public toilet that is overflowing, best to shut the door, shake your head and walk away.

                  Short Circuit, 1986, (released in that year) l forgot how good it was and a great original song to go alone with it.

                  Certainly better than its remake, with a great but not original 80's song, (Steve Winwood) and thrashed to death franchise, (made the mistake of watching all of the Transformer movies, so l am over them).

                  Ok, watched most of Bumblebee, but when they got up to the part where they were captured it became to oh hum, and ditched the rest.

                  Pretty obvious that her other car will be fixed and so forth, it had its moments with the 80's songs, which l believe were originals, but not sure for some of the songs, the start same old Transformer war thing, (my eyes glazed over during that part, but l gave it a chance.

                  Good movie, but if you are sick of Transformer movies then it is a 50/50 option, or you may think "couldn't be bothered watching the rest".

                  PS yes Spielberg used the tunnel that they used in Back to The Future 2, or very likely.

                  But if l had to compare this with Short Circuit, then Bumb,....is action/tension with some humor, and SC, more comedy and a lot less acton/drama.

                  Or BB carries a warning when having dinner, and SC, doesn't.

                  Glad l watched it and never have to watch it again, and will get my hands on Short Circuit two next.

    I recently watched a Netflix Original Movie called the Outlaw King, I must say Netflix is really stepping up their game. It is based on the true story picking up after the Braveheart movie, involving Scottish VS English fight for freedom. I really enjoyed it definitely worth seeing.

    I just watched Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald on cinema. Amazing movie, I loved it. There are a lot of questions that are left unanswered after the movie, but I guess that is what makes a good plot.

    Just watched Aquaman in theaters it was one of the best D.C. films to date. The story is explained very well with tons of details. Atlantis is masterfully rendered and really brings you into a new world. I definitely recommend you watch this one in theaters, Imax, 3D, or Dolby if you can. I give it a 10/10.

      Yep, hate to say it, but it was pretty good, (just went to see it to get out of the heatwave we are getting, hmmm).

      The fight scenes wearn't a bore, story, predictable, Atlantis pre-evil weapon causes an earthquake, scene, worth the price of admission, and close to historical data, which made it even more cooler, the rest, visuals with a melting mainframe, (a million things on screen at once) but all in all, not the usual, alien menace, with an oversized multidimensional blender in the middle of a city, with the supermob fighting it.

      And destroying as many skyscrapers as possible for eye candy, with thankfully no bra-, never mind.

      Worth the 2.20 and there is a scene in the end credits to tie up a loose end, (l didn't wait til the end credits, as l really couldn't be stuffed to learn that King Neptune, gets overthrown by a giant squid).

    Netflix originals:
    The Outlaw King (based on the legend of Robert The Bruce);
    The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs (an anthology western from the Coen brothers);
    Black Mirror: Bandersnatch (an interactive tale with multiple story lines and endings);
    Apostle (the story of a sinister religious cult on an isolated island);
    Bird Box (a post apocalyptic thriller with Sandra Bullock in the lead);
    Operation Finale (based on the true story of the capture of Nazi war criminal Adolph Eichmann in Argentina);
    22 July (based on the true story of the neo-nazi who went on a shooting spree in Norway in 2011).

    Not Netflix originals, but saw them on there anyway:
    Legend (the story of the notorious Kray brothers who ruled London's underworld in the 1960s);
    Midnight Express (hadn't seen it since it was originally on in cinemas in 1979);
    American Graffiti (likewise, hadn't seen it since its cinema release in 1974);
    Arrival (that rarest of creatures - an intelligent sci-fi film);
    Interstellar (as far fetched as shit from China, but entertaining anyway).

    (Please note that these are movies I've watched since my last post in this thread, and not necessarily watched them in the last few days, although I did watch Black Mirror: Bandersnatch this morning. I'll be watching it again and again over the next few days playing with the alternative story lines and endings.)

    Also, every James Bond film ever (including the 2 non-official ones) have been added to Aussie streaming service Stan. So will be indulging myself and watching them in order over the next few weeks or so.

      Yep, last one l saw was Edge of Tomorrow, which was actually a pretty good movie, a bit like Platoon, meets Independance Day and Groundhog Day.

      The creature aspect was oh hum but the clever storyline around the time affect was what made it worthwhile.

      Wreck it Ralph, was good, especially the Princess part, brilliant.



      This looks interesting, albeit some of the action scenes may not be.


      And yep, Frozen Two, Infinity war 2, and Captain America, (beats me 20) is getting dragged through the mud again, (female this time).

    Yesterday I watched Captain Marvel. It was meh. Nothing special.

    As a superhero movie fan, I always watch these and I had to see it before Avengers to know what's going on, but other than that the movie was bland. Brie Larson was great, but as a character she's indestructible. I don't see how they can make more movies with her, because she has no flaws and is super strong and she can fly. She was like Superman on steroids.

      We saw it last week.

      Personally, I'd give it 8 out of 10. We are so spoiled with Marvel. Anything that they put out that isn't the best movie ever made...is seen as mediocre.

      The new Spiderman movie looks great to me, as does Avengers End Game.

      i haven't seen the movie ..but looking at the web of the MCU it looks like it may be Captain Marvel and Thor facing of against Thanos ..so She has to be put forward as such an extremly powerful being to counter the godlike nature of thanos with the infinity gauntlet even in the damaged state of the gauntlet

          I understand but Disney is distributing the series.. and the whole point of the movies is to sell a bunch of toys .. so squeezing captain marvel in.. to end game ..it will be interesting how they get Adam warlock into the MCU he did appear in cacoon at the end of guardians of the galaxy 2 ..

          so it is just interesting to watch how they fit all these character into movies ..

      Thanks for that, so much for DIS stock going up.

      Best guess he goes back in time, after controlling everything and saves that hot chick that he killed off previously then they nab him somehow, probably slip him a dodgy curry?

      Sounds like another Batman vs Superman, drags on and is only good as a rental.

      On Australia day, Hoyts only played that movie, which was a first, and the theatures were booked out, and toilets were booked out afterwards, lol.

      We watched it last week, and thought it was really good. Several moments where the audience cheered, and several moments when you could hear crying in the theater.

        I was thinking about SHAZAM, but alas, it was pulled. Probably for the best as the concept may have run out of steam fairy quickly, unless the special affects got it to the end credits?

        I would wait til the other one comes out on rental, three hours is a bit too much, and it is only for die hard fans.

        Not sure about the crying, but if the usher walked in on the end credits and said that the toilets have a one hour wait time, l would be crying as well.

            I would be interested to know what you thought of Terminator Genisys. I thought it was hugely entertaining movie. The critics thought otherwise.

            They release something that is at least on par with the earlier ones, yet it was slammed. Is it just because the idea has been done to death and the critics judged it being stale because of that.

            I was actually thinking of messaging you to make sure you were OK.

            I saw Justice League. If there were no Marvel movies, I would have thought it was really good. But compared to the two hour orgasms that MARVEL is putting out....I have to agree with you.

            Captain Marvel was good, but not nearly as phenomenal as the last 2 Avengers movies.

            The last 20 Marvel movies built a universe that we are invested in. Endgame is the Payoff. Really, it's absolutely worth seeing. Three hours of fan service. There are several moments that will send a chill up your spine...a few that will make you cry. You'll leave the theater...and spend the next hour or so...coming down.

            I missed you. Really. My feeling of self worth really takes a hit when you aren't around.

              I've been around both forums. There just hasn't been anything going on.

              Btw, how can your self worth take a hit when you don't have any to begin with?

              Wait. I forgot. Self worth and *actual* worth are two different things.

            I didn't mind it, eventhough the series ended abruptly, and the alternative timeline or parallel universe where everyone had the app, which would bring about the machines rising again, was getting a bit silly.

            A bit like Doctor WHo, where they messed about with things so much it gave everyone a headache.

            Just watched the Mule with Clint Eastwood, and he also produced and directed. Although the story was based on a newspaper cutout with someone who was a drug mule for the cartel in real life.

            Good and possibly great movie, well worth a look.

            Get to see a lot of the US, countryside and hear some cooky old songs, but someone really needs to tell them to stop driving on the wrong side of the road, lol.

            Just watched Chaddyshack again, with plenty of great one liners.

            And also read about Ghostbusters, or during filming Dan Achroyd, would walk over to Spielberg's studio when he was editing one of his Raiders movies hoping for a part, (1983).

            He also borrowed Spielbergs bike which he assumed was a courier bike but it was the ET movie one, lol.

            Had a choice between Godzilla King of the Monsters, and 2040, which was a hard choice since they are so much alike?

            Went with Godzilla, more laughs.

            And also snuck into the Superhero, - Gold glove fetish one, before Godzilla started, and watched the Hulk, moan about stairs, and ironman, antman try to get some blue box back, and then watch Captain America and Captain America have a seriously dull fight, (don't ask).

            My eyes glazed over at that point and l left.

            Godzilla with the ad's was 2.3 hours, and the thing above would be 3.15 plus ad's or 3.45 minutes long.

            I won't state the obvious, but cannot see how anyone could sit in a chair with a drink for almost 4 hours and enjoy it?

            And why did l go and see, this, mainly to take a quick nap, since my car was being serviced, and l had little time today to do anything else except get the car down there.

            Last was "Once.Upon.A.Time.In.Venice", with Bruce Willis, and others.

            Pretty funny movie, but with adult humor, so best to lock the kids in their rooms so they can stare aimlessly at their smart phones watching an excessively loud cartoon?

            Funny movie, cute dog, and a storyline with the faint smell of Pulp Fiction.

            A mixed review in regards to seeing this in a theatre, but a good rental idea.

    Well in theatres endgame is the last one I watched.

    I only have netflix, and can't be bothered paying for anything else. Because what happens on netflix is that you spend more time on choosing the right one rather than watching a movie LOL... how do you get rid of this?

    p.s shazam was good too. I mean it was something different. Immature hero but funny.

    I watched Avengers End Game I can't really tell what this story is about because that would spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen Infinity War. I would recommend seeing the movie. However it wasn't my favorite I feel like this movie was riding off the story of previous movies and it's own story line was choppy and thrown together. It had different hero's in the movie and would fill in the details.

    Watched a movie called The Commuter on Amazon Prime and it was pretty decent. Movie was full of suspense and action definitely worth a viewing 7/10. Also watched a cheezy movie called "Superfly" that was on Stars it was so goofy but entertaining at the same time 4/10 watch it but don't expect anything serious from it.
