    Pierce Brosnan's singing in Mama Mia is a wonder that should not be missed.
    He deserved an oscar for that. Bloody brilliant. This films out-shits all other knowingly shit films. Its brilliant. Kinda of.


    But Transformers The Last Knight however....I tried to watch it. Twice. Got about half an hour in..Just so bad. So very, very bad.

    Ah. I suppose that's a good solution if a little extreme.

    Most of that makes sense.
  • New Tomb Raider synopsis:

    Lara Croft is the fiercely independent daughter of an eccentric adventurer who vanished when she was scarcely a teen. Now a young woman of 21 without any real focus or purpose, Lara navigates the chaotic streets of trendy East London as a bike courier, barely making the rent, and takes college courses, rarely making it to class. Determined to forge her own path, she refuses to take the reins of her father’s global empire just as staunchly as she rejects the idea that he’s truly gone. Advised to face the facts and move forward after seven years without him, even Lara can’t understand what drives her to finally solve the puzzle of his mysterious death.

    Going explicitly against his final wishes, she leaves everything she knows behind in search of her dad’s last-known destination: a fabled tomb on a mythical island that might be somewhere off the coast of Japan. But her mission will not be an easy one; just reaching the island will be extremely treacherous. Suddenly, the stakes couldn’t be higher for Lara, who—against the odds and armed with only her sharp mind, blind faith and inherently stubborn spirit—must learn to push herself beyond her limits as she journeys into the unknown. If she survives this perilous adventure, it could be the making of her, earning her the name tomb raider.

    No wait, come back!

    I enjoyed mother. The spoiler up there pretty much nails it. Good to go in not knowing anything, and I'm now going to see just how that movie got financed and made. Obviously the Lawrence factor is a big part, but still man.

    Sacked off the cinema as I'm a filthy pirate and would rather go on the lash tomorrow. Sounds like my dream film though.

    What's wrong with her neck? She looks like Bojack Horseman.
  • I decided to go full spoiler on Mother! because I’m not gonna get to see it in the cinema and I knew reading the back and forth on it would be this much fun.

    Knowing the plot won’t diminish my enjoyment much, given it’s a trademark Aronofsky allegory rather than a straight narrative thrill. I just wanna dive in and enjoy how much he pisses people off, knowing that I can enjoy the film at my leisure in a few months time.

    From what I can see though, Aronofsky 100% cops to the meaning outlined above, in Stoph’s spoiler tags. He’s said as much in interviews already – just not in that level of detail.

    Spoiler:

    I am absolutely loving the Guardian piece today about how audience ratings (in the States, naturally) have given it a big fat ‘F’.
  • Read that, guy sounded like a cunt.
  • Opinion columnists often do.
  • has anyone read the created contro for the new kingsman (essentially like Modern Warfare 2s No Russian moment)?
    For some reason I was cool with the gag in the first one that caused all the palaver (in part because it at least felt like the person had control over the situation and it was so casually done that perhaps it was all balanced in fairness game). But this new one
    Spoiler:
    seems more gross to me and makes me less likely to see the film.

    Add to the fact they seem to (from the trails) be maintaining this disability = baddie trope, the whole thing stinks of disappointing.

    80's Lou Ferrigno Hulk was the height of TV superhero action back then.

    Holding the wrong end of the stick since 2009.
  • The tomb raider trailer is really faithful to the games (well I know at least the 2013 one). I reminded me when videogame films started (Mario, sf) and how they didn't match the games in the majority of way.
  • eh, yeah, trailer looks quite good to me:



    Nick Frost's beard earns it a bonus point.
  • I can't watch that at work, but unless it bears no relation to the above synopsis, it can't possibly be anything other than utterly rancid.
  • New James Cameron directed Terminator movie on the way. Arnie and Linda Hamilton to anchor movie as it's a passing the torch to a younger cast. Taking place directly after T2. Ignoring all the other sequels.

    I'll probably ignore this one as well.

    I would say, based on the trailer, that the synopsis is seriously overweighted on the teenager stuff compared to the film itself.

Howdy, Stranger!
