Just saw Blockers. You should go see Blockers. It's so pure. Completely inclusive,really positive and forward thinking messages, all the Jokes are at the parents expense, but the girl daughters also get to be utter fuck ups too.

The trailer for this looked dreadful but so far I am only hearing positive things about this. I likely won't go see it anyway. -

I remember thinking the same at the time, but in the end the tension of the situation won out and made it very effective. The issue I had was more how much the first part of the film dragged on before we got to that. Made the whole thing overlong.Halfway through Detroit. The current scene isn't making much sense to me, so I think I'll come back to it after a nap.Spoiler:
It was a good scene, everything else is very well handled, but I'd have preferred even a half-arsed attempt to pass that aspect off as something they may have done, just for the benefit of the viewer perhaps. Even adding a couple of lines of dialogue, or having an earlier scene play out slightly differently would've sidestepped what strikes me as a pretty odd course of action from multiple characters. I am occasionally guilty of pressing the 'heey, why didn't...' button in films, but I reckon this one's a biggie.

Seriously, I need to recommend it. Half empty cinema at 1pm that was still full of laughter and just such a positive movie to spend an afternoonjdanielp wrote:regmcfly wrote:Just saw Blockers.

Is the latest Spiderman worth a watch? I only liked no.2 of the Maguires (and parts of 3, admittedly), and only saw half of the first Garfield one. But I do like the character and enjoyed the new one's cameo in whichever film he was in. Civil War I think.

Got the Sky app open, so it's gonna be that, Wonder Woman or It Comes At Night.

Yeah it's a fun Spidey-in-High-School-Learning-Responsibility-With-A-Side-Helping-Of-Iron-Man-Father-Figure-Romp.
-
I'll go with that then, ta. I liked the door hug from the trailer.

Watched Den of Thieves. Good brainless nonsense. -
I actually really enjoyed new Spidermans, despite really low expectations going in.Moot_Geeza wrote:Is the latest Spiderman worth a watch?

I loved it. Think Tom Holland makes an excellent Spider-Man and this one felt like a Marvel movie as directed by John HughesNot everything is The Best or Shit. Theres many levels between that, lets just enjoy stuff. -
Aye, he was grand. Film was just good fun from start to finish.Come with g if you want to live...

Marissa Tomei is doing a great impersonation of a 36yr old. I'm enjoying it.

I'm off to see Interstellar in 70mm at the PCC end of the month. Never seen the film, don't know anything about it other than my man McConaughey starts crying at various things on posted on the internet. Never been to a 70mm either. Rather pumped, tbh.
-
I love it, others hate it. I think whatever your stance it is a visual treat so should look great on 70mm.

It Comes At Night is mostly good, mostly. It would be my recommendation of those options followed by Spiderman. -

Aye that's my thinking; a friend wanted to see it, I wanted to see a 70mm film, it seems to tick all the boxes. Plus, McConaughey.
Give me the Space. -
Interstellar is wonderful. That scene still makes me blub.
-
Agreed. -
Watch Contact when you get in, keep the feels going.

Nice. Will watch tomorrow probably. -

That's actually been on my watch list for a while, it popped up again last week whilst listening to the Adam Buxton podcast. I need to plug the gaping Contact hole. -

This’ll sound good ultra cliche, but get very stoned before you go in - it’s one of my go-to stoned films. There’s a 45 minute sequence in the film that is just...astonishing. Some of the best cinema of recent years.Gamertag: gremill -
