    But how good have most of them been? Dude is awesome. Plus he had a prime Demi so that gets extra points.

    I watched a movie called Random Harvest on turner classics. It was filmed in England in the 40's. It's about an English soldier in ww1 that loses his memory in the trenches and is brought back to health by an English show girl only to lose his memory again but in the end he gets it back again. Yes it's a romance but it's an excellent film. I highly recommend it if any of you enjoy the old classics like I do. Saw Hitchcocks Frenzy as well didn't like it as much as I like most of his movies.

    ​watched the new Dunkirk film last night. It was good, never let up on action and was very atmospheric. Good film.

    I think he was good in Pulp Fiction but brilliant in Moonlighting.

    Demi is beautiful.

    So The Dark Tower has flopped, who'd a thunk it.

    I read the first 4 or 5 of the books and just couldn't picture it as a film, it just wouldn't translate to the big screen, looks like I was correct, it's got something like 16% on rotten tomatoes after the opening weekend

    Watched guardians of the galaxy vol 2 earlier

    I actually laughed out loud at "I'M MARY POPPINS Y'ALL" fucking brilliant that was.

    Film was decent not as good as the first but still good fun

    It's not a movie but finally watched all seasons and caught up in Agents Of Shield. Why does it seem most of the good 'characters' leave that show? Mack is just a big surly grumpy pants who drains life out of every scene . Might watch Doctor Strange next.

    Dr Strange was terrible, I switched it off after about an hour, although I was busy doing other things at the time so it probably only had about 35% of my attention.

    I might give it another go someday, first impressions were not good though

    Now I'm conflicted and not sure I can lose 2 hrs . Will definitely give it a go, but honestly first impression on stills alone was it looks a more 'artsy' and wizard like comic book adaptation. If that makes sense

    It's pretty good. Some nice humor too.

    I think that is why Marvel films are doing better than DC, they have genuinely funny and memorable moments remember Quicksilver in X Men savings the lives of people to Eurhythmics music or Spiderman's appearance in Avengers Civil War?

    The one liners particularly from Robert Downey Junior as Iron Man are brilliant.

    I went to watch 'It' yesterday

    I really enjoyed it but it wasn't without its problems

    Whilst the kids were all brilliant it was clear that Bill, Richie and Beverly were the main characters and the others really suffered from this
    Unless you had read or watched the book or the mini series I doubt if you would even know Stan or Mikes names after watching the new version.
    In the book Henry Bowers was almost the main protagonist and It or Pennywise almost played second fiddle to Henry, Henry was massively underused in this version.
    The way that the losers all so blatantly fall in love with Beverley at first site just felt wrong and completely out of touch with the book, in the book they all find themselves lusting after her without actually realizing it, and that was a big part of the book, Ben was openly infatuated with her and he was aware that she was attracted to Bill and he accepted this, I thought this was lacking massively and the film suffered a little for it, it may be because I have read the book and that was a pretty big aspect of it, maybe I'm just being picky I don't know.
    Having said that Richie was brilliantly played, he was genuinely laugh out loud funny (although I did miss the 'beep beep Richie' I would have been nice if they would have included that

    I thought that it was all a little easy for the kids as well, I never got the feeling that they actually felt threatened at any time.

    I would have actually preferred it if the story alternated between the adults and the kids, they will struggle to gain as much anticipation for a version that focuses solely on the adults and I think it would have helped them expand on the characters a little.

    Also a few little tweaks annoyed me, in the book and the miniseries it was Mike who delved into Derry's history and uncovered the darkness that surrounds the whole town and I'm pretty sure that it was actually Stan who put forward the idea of the swearing a blood oath, these are only little things but I think that it overpowers certain characters and almost makes other redundant.

    On the flip side though I thought that Pennywise was brilliant, he was a lot more faithful to the book than Tim Curry's interpretation was, he was truly menacing.
