Dune (1984), so bad it’s brilliant.

Patrick Stewart and all.

Its just brilliant, a valiant attempt to do things that couldn't be done at the time.

The cast is better than Dune 2's is, in nearly all respects.

2nd Warning. That first lot was enough. I can't stop thinking Gaza.

Poor Things, some great acting all around especially by Emma Stone, the movie sets looked very pretty, had to be one of the most explicit movies I’ve seen however, not something to watch with parents or your kids

It almost didn't seem real. The doc is a dystopian apocalypse unfolding in real time.

Arrival - great film

Excellent and thought provoking, enjoyed the Creator at the weekend. Visually stunning

I watched the creator a little while back. Brilliant film, and it's one of them which I will watch again

The Batman 2 delayed until Oct 2026. Gives me another 2 years to not watch the first one.

This has completely ruined my day. Possibly my life.

Island of Death (1976)
Greek cult classic (apparently). Not sure what to say about this one lol Let's just say they'd never make this today. Not in a million years.

I did find it entertaining at times, though 100+ minutes is a bit long for a film like this. I can proudly(?) say I've seen every (meaning both) Jane Lyle film(s) now, at least according to Letterboxd. She rarely wore clothes in either of the two. Probably the reason I got through it with relative ease.

Easily better than Jurassic World. 6/10

Throne of Blood (1957)
The fourth film of the Kurosawa box set. Another good one. The visuals are stunning, the atmosphere chilling (almost horror-esque at times) and the performances are super strong, especially from the great Toshiro Mifune. What a legend. The story itself is fine, but the film did feel a little bit too long at times. All in all an enjoyable film, but not up there with Seven Samurai and Yojimbo. I guess the moral of the story is: Don't listen to women.
7/10

The best ever version of Macbeth to be filmed, it’s incredible. The ending and him seeing the ghost are phenomenal scenes.

Yeah, the more I think about the movie, the more I feel like 7/10 was a bit harsh. The ending was memorable to say the least! I love how these films from the 50s look way better than most films made today when it comes to both practical effects (like real arrows being used) and cinematography. Kurosawa truly was a master.

The Tender Bar on Amazon. Ben Affleck, Christopher Lloyd and Ty Sheridan. Adaptation of JR Moehringer’s memoir. Good film, easy to watch before bed. No clue who the fella is (he’s a journalist). Also, it was directed by George Clooney.
