last movie you watched (Flag Up SPOILERS)

[Master]

Watched Southpaw which was better than I expected but do not know why it was called southpaw. It should have been the film Sylvester made for Rocky 5.

Magnificent 7 (2016) version.

Really enjoyed it. I should remember the original to be honest and Im not sure how sympathetic the reboot is. My Dad used to have cowboy films on all the time, half of them were boring as fuck and some of the more memorable ones got lost in the haze.

Basically yeah, some cunt moves on a gold mining town and starts killing fuckers to take the land. The locals decide to hire some guns to sort them out. The Magnificent 7 are formed, but there's an underlying reason for them being there.

I kinda gave Chris Pratt a bit of a pass for Passengers ion this one as he's just that kinda bloke you want to be your mate. Like Ryan Reynolds, they're just difficult to dislike.

Ethan Hawke's character annoyed me a bit. Twat. Denzels opening scene was awesome.

[Fenster]

Just out of interest (to a boring cunt like me, anyway) the same geezer - Antoine Fuqua - directed the last two films mentioned. His four films with Denzil/Hawke have all been mustard/good. His others, like Southpaw, pony/good.

Just watched Season 1 of True Detective starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson......woah, that was a slow build up but man what a brilliantly written and acted series. And yes, it DOES tie in to Pizzagate/Pedogate.


Fucking heavy shit, that series....very intense to watch.

Trainspotting 2, absolute shite

They made such a big deal about leaving it 20 years so they could keep it faithful to the book bit all you got was a 2 hour homage to the original.

Teasing lust for life through the whole film, yeah I know it's coming
showing us a shitty bog
showing Renton leaning on the bonnet of a car smirking
showing the actual scene where begbie this the glass over the the balcony

Yeah I get it it's trainspotting 2, the reason I'm here is because I want to see the sequel not a poor attempt of a nostalgic shot for shot remake.

Porno was really fucking dark in places and I was looking forward to seeing that element of it, begbie being an outright psycho , spud hitting absolute rock bottom to the point he nearly sucks someone off to get drugs and he begs begbie to kill him

Instead we get rehashed scenes from the first film and a piss poor story line.

2 scenes that were good were the "choose life" speech, they actually updated it really well. The scene where sickboy and Renton get back together, they felt like scenes made for people who had aged 20 years since the original, the rest of the film felt like it was made for people who wanted to forget that they had aged 20 years since the original.

I've had a drink so I might pop back tomorrow and amend this post just incase it is littered with spelling mistakes or doesn't make sense.

Read the book don't watch the film

Just had a look at my post from last night and I agree with it all, I thought that because I had 8 or 9 pints of stella what I was typing it that I may have disagreed with myself this morning but nope I stand by it all.

saying it was absolute shite was a bit harsh, it wasn't that bad but all my other points stand

Gold - was a bit long (2 hrs). Wasn't that great. It reminded me of another movie but I can't place it. McConaughey puts his last dollars into digging for gold in Indonesia.

Age of ultron, civil war and Ant man are funny movies and loved them.

I knew it would be a horrid mess

I watched Raging Bull again it's one of my favorite movies. Gimme a stage so this bull here can rage, that's entertainment

Just finished watching The Witch. Don't waste your time.

Live by Night. Ben Affleck as a 1920s Boston gangster. It was decent.

The Witch or the VVitch?
If you mean the VVitch then I tried watching that as well but just couldn't get into it, ended up witching it off after about an hour.

It was called The Witch, original title The VVitch: A New-England Folktale. I think it's the same movie you're talking about.

yeah that's the badger, slow, boring, tedious, I know it has had good reviews and I normally get on well with films like that but I just couldn't sitck at this one.

and the bit I have bolded from my other post was a genuine typo, ended up being a decent little pun though so I'm leaving it in there.

Next in my queue

....I'm actually kind of scared of this one to be honest.






At my home now is 'Viva Zapata!' starring Marlo Brando and Anthony Quinn, we'll see how that goes
