Sorry, after the worthless drivel that was Thor Rankcock, no more of that staid, dull superhero formula for me.

Baddie sets up catastrophic event >>> goodies battle it out, get slapped about then re-group >>> some heartfelt revelations amongst the cast that would make an '80s teen horror movie blush >>> big final battle royale >>>> open ended conclusion set up for the next spunking of enough resources to educate 50 000 children for a decade.

Fark that.

Deadpool is what you'll be wanting then. Aiming to see DP2 sooner rather than later.

A mate of mine saw it earlier in the week, apparently it's better than the first one.

Logan Noir owns, hth. The original colour version is superior though.

Solo. Not as good as Rouge One, but a lot better than I was expecting based off the trailers. A nifty little cameo towards the end which could play into a Boba Fett film, or used in a sequel (which IDK if they're doing with these anthology series).

The Ballard of Lefty Brown.
It's a cracking Western. Bill Pullman is quality.

Maybe i was in the wrong mood, but found it to be cliched rubbish. Still watched it until the end though, why I'm not sure. Maybe it was the promise that it might get good, it didn't.

I've watched it twice. It's a grower.

'The Endless'....... drive-in horror. Not bad.

Watched Miike's live-action adaptation of the mega-problematic and sorta-kinda-racist manga TerraforMars. It is hilariously terrible, and considering that he's the guy who's got brilliant films like Ichi the Killer, Visitor Q, 13 Assassins and the Shinjuku Black Triad trilogy under his belt, you know he was just slumming it and goofing around with other people's (in this case, publisher Shueisha and the studio) money.

Watched the first half hour or so of ‘free fire’. Jesus Christ that was fucking awful. One of the hackiest things I’ve seen in a long time. Why would anybody possibly give a fuck about anything or anyone in this film?

TAG, watched early Sunday morning hungover and unable to sleep, genuinely made me laugh despite being "one of those" comedies with "that guy" that is in "all those" films...

A few years ago on a rural back road in Co Kildare, the owner of a stone cottage draped black and white hand-painted signs over his gates. They signalled a war footing, a siege mentality.
Thomas Reid, whose family had farmed the surrounding land for more than a century, now found himself in the sights of the Industrial Development Authority (IDA), attempting to acquire his land by compulsory purchase order (CPO) for some non-specific use.
From the outset, Reid’s position was clear – at least to him: it was not for sale. The writing on his handmade signs sought to inform anyone who would listen of the battle he faced.

Black Klansman - wasted opportunity, in what could have been an interesting and thought-provoking story at this time. It wasn't either of those things.

For me, this absolutely nails it. https://www.vox.com/culture/2018/5/15/1 ... ottesville

It's one of those where I'm only frustrated by it because it could have been great and had some brilliant people involved, but it didn't make the most of it by a long shot.

I watched Isle of Dogs recently, it's by Wes Anderson so you know what you're getting, it's quite good.
