Last Film You Watched

Seen some of that last night but never stayed with it, if it comes on again I will try and see it through.

There's plenty of the original in it, and a tiny bit of guardians of the galaxy. I'd give it another show to pick up some of the bits I'd overlooked. IIRC some viewers on here said the subtitled version is the better watch.

Can't read my can't read my oh you can't read my joker face...

The first one? Because there are 2 sequels, and they get more gory as they progress...

I'm going to try the second one tonight - even though it's 140 minutes

I'm expecting a few Shakespearian monologues along the way for that length

Freaked me out that clown

I think the most prominent fundamental misapprehension about the film's main antagonist 'Art', is that despite the film's moviemakers categorically stating that he is a clown, his 'performance art' is more indicative of that of a mimes.

However, a mime doesn't fit the narrative that the filmmakers are trying to create, that being clowns are scary and mimes are annoying!

Hahahaha, well I can tell you that the gory scenes are a lot more 'creative'.

And the third one that's due to be released soon is supposed to be even more 'creative'!

Watched the remake of 1979's Saloms Lot last night, not a patch on the original in my view. Seemed rushed from start to finish, missed lots of detail and character detail and for me that ruined it.

Yeah completely agree….all I thought all the way through it was…what was the point of making it? Brought nothing new really (except one scene), but generally speaking boring as anything. The Soul and Lowe versions were superior. Not sure you can make it as a movie unless it is a 3 hour plus movie. It needs that longer run time to set the scene and characters

This is / was on my list of films to see.

Should I bother ?

Big fan of the original tv mini series and an even bigger fan of the book.

I think you may be disappointed mate, the og tv series is my favourite vampire visual adaptation and this isn’t a patch on it.

Cracking move that as 1) it is genuinely good and 2) I thought that franchise was dead and buried.

The only criticism I can possibly level at, is that at 1hr 20 mins it’s too short and almost stops the film dead, just as it’s starting to get going.

I’ve heard that the follow on is going to be a proper running length though.

Nothing can wash away the stench of the Beekeeper. It’s somehow worse than The Meg 1&2. The only film of his that’s been half decent in recent memory is The Wrath of Man

The only good thing that came out of it was me gaining in interest in reading about queen bees.

He’s turned the corner now Michael, according to quite a few after yesterday’s game, even thought he was steady myself, not going overboard about him though!

The more he and Young play together, the more chance we have of losing games, even though yesterday was a half decent result.

How do you compare the Eqalizer to John Wick to the newer Rambo movies?

The movies or a fight between the 3 protagonists?
