Idris Elba as Roland is an interesting bit of casting, I can sort of see him in the role. I'm not so sure about McConaughey as the Man in Black though rubschin:

There has been talk about a big screen adaptation of the Gunslinger series for a while now but I'm in 2 minds about this as there have been few Stephen King adaptations that haven't been dire. The Shining and Shawshank Redeption are the only 2 that come to mind although The Mist wasn't that bad either. The less said about The Stand or the Langoliers the better. noooo:

Weird on so many levels with a slightly laboured first half and a stonking second half with Samuel L Jackson at his menacing best hamming it up. Also wonderfully sick in parts so why somebody thinks it's OK for kiddiewinks with parents just defeats me.
All in all 3 stars out of 4 from me.

Perhaps you should see the film then. It's not about the water landing it's all about veteran post truther Clint Eastwood's fabricated story of the Safety Board investigation. A false narrative that will weaken their ability to investigate safety issues and as a result make yours, my and everybody's lives a little less safe.rubschin:Just watched 'Sully'... :thumbsup:

In all honesty I've seen Beckham take more convincing dives on the pitch than his 'acting' in that scene. Probably the closest he will ever get to being a knight though.
Might try watching it with a free ticket after a couple of pints but I doubt I'd pay for a seat, something tells me the best parts were used in the trailer. noooo:

But it's brilliant (well after the first 10 minutes which are a bit slow), and just for BM there's even a musical dance number over the end credits. Loads of cameos (sadly no Nicole Kidman this time) and just wall to wall humour over a suitably absurd plot

Ok being serious now, I wanted to like this film, I really did. But I went in not expecting a masterpiece and I can safely say that Solo delivered in that regard. In all honesty if you strip away the nostalgia and take out Han, Chewie and Lando then all you would have an updated version of a Roger Corman B movie with elements lifted from Firefly such as the train robbery. Hell at one point in the film I actually dozed off briefly. The plot, such as it was, was bland, clunky and predictable and at no point in the film did I feel invested in any way with the characters, even if Donald Glover's portrayal of Lando was spot on.

To be fair to the cast they did what they could with the shite they had been given but it's just another example of Kennedy running the franchise into the ground blindly championing her agenda. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the idea of inclusion, but it has to be done properly. And from what has been shown in the recent films Gordon Brown's clunking fist was more subtle than the garbage the screenplay writers that have been allowed hammer into the stories. Compare the Star Wars films to the MCU films, Marvel is going from strength to strength because they not only use the right actor for the role and directors who respect the lore but they also give them the artistic freedom to make the films that the fans want. Star Wars on the other hand seems to be a drive to destroy one of if not the most successful franchise in movie history in order to rinse the customers and push an blatant agenda in a way that insults the fans.

Aside from the hatchet job done on Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia's Jedi Poppins scene, Darth Whiny Emo, Rey's sudden mastery of Jedi combat when she has had little or no instruction, the blatant rip off of the Hoth battle from Empire Strikes Back, killing off senior characters just to get rid of them and then creating a pointless throwaway character in Holdo when she seems to have been crowbarred in just to force Dameron's mutiny by not telling the remaining command staff what the plan was. She would have been much better implemented by developing her over Ep 8 and 9, then there is the whole "we are on a secret mission and cannot give ourselves away but we will pretty much wave a huge flag saying Rebel spies here by rescuing the local wildlife" and of course the JarJar Binks of the new trilogy Rose Tico.

In all honesty if you strip away the nostalgia and take out Han, Chewie and Lando then all you would have an updated version of a Roger Corman B movie with elements lifted from Firefly such as the train robbery. Hell at one point in the film I actually dozed off briefly. The plot, such as it was, was bland, clunky and predictable and at no point in the film did I feel invested in any way with the characters, even if Donald Glover's portrayal of Lando was spot on.
Overall it was a couple of hours of my life that I'm not going to get back... noooo:
To be fair to the cast they did what they could with the shite they had been given but it's just another example of Kennedy running the franchise into the ground blindly championing her agenda. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the idea of inclusion, but it has to be done properly. And from what has been shown in the recent films Gordon Brown's clunking fist was more subtle than the garbage the screenplay writers that have been allowed hammer into the stories. Compare the Star Wars films to the MCU films, Marvel is going from strength to strength because they not only use the right actor for the role and directors who respect the lore but they also give them the artistic freedom to make the films that the fans want. Star Wars on the other hand seems to be a drive to destroy one of if not the most successful franchise in movie history in order to rinse the customers and push an blatant agenda in a way that insults the fans.
Aside from the hatchet job done on Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia's Jedi Poppins scene, Darth Whiny Emo, Rey's sudden mastery of Jedi combat when she has had little or no instruction, the blatant rip off of the Hoth battle from Empire Strikes Back, killing off senior characters just to get rid of them and then creating a pointless throwaway character in Holdo when she seems to have been crowbarred in just to force Dameron's mutiny by not telling the remaining command staff what the plan was. She would have been much better implemented by developing her over Ep 8 and 9, then there is the whole "we are on a secret mission and cannot give ourselves away but we will pretty much wave a huge flag saying Rebel spies here by rescuing the local wildlife" and of course the JarJar Binks of the new trilogy Rose Tico.

Could be the best yet of the Mission Impossible franchise. Even if you don't like Cruise the film just works all the way through. Pacey, witty, very good action and a fair old yarn of a plot. Cruise is as ever just right for that role and the supporting cast esp Cavill, Pegg, Kirby and Rhames excellent as well

Was curious about this film when it was first announced, right up to the point where I found out that they had got rid of Henry Coxwell (a record breaking balloonist at the time who was on the actual balloon flight with Glaisher and was instrumental in averting a catastrophe mid flight by releasing a trapped valve when the balloon ascended so high up that they began to pass out) and replaced him with some random female character instead.QuoteLieberman said: ‘A top priority for us on The Aeronauts is authenticity.

Still on the subject of Star Wars, there is a fan re-edit of the godawful mess that was Episode 8 in the works and if the trailer is anything to go by then it's going to be a better piece of work than the original (then again that isn't really shooting for the sky).If it's got Daisy Ridley in it I will watch it

Daisy is still in it but a lot of the scenes are completely changed from the mess that was the original. For one thing Luke actually trains her, Jedi Poppins is no more and Akbar actually has screen time. :thumbsup:

Has had mixed reviews and I can see why but overall I'd be more positive. The acting is superb (esp Redmayne and Depp) the filming and special effects top notch and the plot is a fair one
But
As many of the critics have said it is too intricate and complex for its own good especially in the middle third which sags after a good opening. Too many characters and too many sub plots introduced
We enjoyed but with a decent script editor we'd have loved it

It was a well cast film and they did a great job telling two parallel stories at the same time. I had a lot of fun watching this and was entertained throughout the entire film.

The general feedback I've had is that when the cat that is used as a plot device has more on screen charisma and personality than the person in the title role then there has been a major cock up in the casting department. noooo:

For a start it's not for people that hate fantasy based films - that means you BM so you can stop here and go tend the home brew.
So moving on:
One word: Excellent
Two words: Must Watch
Three words: Possibly best Marvelfilm
Good plot, tight direction, good use of CGI, excellent interplay between Brie Larson and Samuel L Jackson, clever links to the other Marvel films and a great 90's based sound track. Nice homage to Stan Lee, witty 90s references arguably. It starts confusingly but maybe that's the intention given the plot (no spoilers here) and it then moves on to a good piece of entertainment. The cat is good with a very interesting coughing up 'furball' scene. As ever with Marvel films, stay to the last second of the credits and also as ever some losers leave at the first hint of the credits.

It may be from an early version but looking at the terminator when it's jumped in the air to throw that metal rod it looks like the CGI Neo did in the second Matrix film.Thought Linda Hamilton was very good in that clip. She was rubbish in the first Terminator film and superb in the second.
It's got potential though, I'll give it that
But the best thing about that clip in terms of promise was two key words: James Cameron

Haven't got around to watching it yet but I have a sneaking feeling that description will cover the Marvel franchise from now on as I don't think they have an overall story arc anymore.

Look Bob, there is a reason why your stock has dipped this quarter. You aren't listening to your customers and you are allowing well loved and profitable franchises that you have forked out a bleedin' fortune for to be ruined. Look at the absolute mess that Star Wars has become, three underwhelming films and a new series of a cartoon and it's taken up until now that a director has gone to George Lucas for advice on how to create something that doesn't ruin the legacy of the original films. Now look at Marvel phase 4, something that has been met with a tidal wave of 'meh' from the fans (and yes I know that Endgame is now the highest grossing film of all time but that is purely down to a cynical cash grab as all you added to the re-release were a couple of additional end credit scenes that should have been there in the first place ESPECIALLY the Stan Lee one. And not forgetting that your all singing all dancing Galaxy's Edge attraction has had such a poor attendance that you have had to significantly cut staff hours and the less said about Dark Phoenix the better. So now you are just raiding the archives for anything you can 'reboot' for a fast cash grab hence the live action remakes you are flooding cinemas with.
I'm going to assume that as you are the CEO of Disney you are an intelligent person, so how on earth have you forgotten the golden rule that the customer is always right. The fan base knows what it wants, well written stories that respect the lore of their corresponding franchises, people want to be entertained, not preached to so give them that. Then you could reboot old properties because you think they have a chance at being popular again and not because you are trying to make up for losses because people aren't going to see other releases.

A Home Alone reboot. noooo: Will they have a female focus and someone playing Gary Glitter?
Don't get me wrong, I loved Endgame but the way that they re-released it with the only change being a couple of additional credit scenes was nothing more than a blatant cash grab in order for it to beat Avatar
