Just finished Tropic Thunder again. Not for everyone but I loved it . Tom Cruise is very funny in it.

just downed exactly this.
It feels like an end end, not like a to be continued. But then, where there is money to be made ...
It really answered one big question to be, a little one it opened (Hux) I googled, but another biggie is open now. Will be an intermediate movie like Solo or Rougue one coming, I think.

I'm trying to get up to speed with the Star Wars films so I watched Solo earlier. A decent romp in fairness, loads of nods to the original series as expected and I didn't fall asleep once ?

Watched the latest Halloween film yesterday.
Why did I do that?
As if it was going to be anything else but rubbish.

you did better than me, 4th time and still dozed off fot 15 mins in the middle
Another one for Star Wars. Mixed emotions, 40yrs of watching means I can use that word. Some sentimental cameos, scenes etc but I didn't think the film itself was very good. It followed the set up, sequences, of past films, gave us nothing new. More disappointing, I ended up not caring about the lead characters ?. Rey became whiney, her endless moody battles with Kylo were dull and repetitive. Fin and Po, I just didn't care about. Whenever Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford or Carrie Fisher appeared you could feel the cinema lift but this film was supposed to be about the new heroes, not the old ones. Their moments simply showed how we did care about them, the gap between the two eras evident.
This should be the end now. If they do chuck out another, money talks, then I'm afraid for the first time I would not go to watch.
My daughter loved it, apparently I'm just grumpy ?

That was the big issue with the 3 new films, no new character was ever going to be the star of the film or lot lines with the original cast still there. It was good seeing them again but they were always going to be the stars over the new cast

Family tradition we do a buffet lunch and watch a film.
This year was the lads choice and he went for the 1962 release of Godzilla v King Kong! Oh my days, dubbed in to English, men in rubber suits as the monsters, white people blackened to play the tribesman, so much wrong on every modern day level.
Some of the fight scenes were comedy gold. All done pre CGI and apparently it’s now a cult classic.

Was Jar Jar Binks in it? Cool.
Ha ha. Sadly not ?. They had Ewoks so I'm not sure why Jar Jar didn't get the gig as well.

Last Christmas. Predictable does begin to cover it and "based on the songs of George Michael" is a bigger stretch than Nicola Sturgeon's accounts.

???. You are right, there is a theme park to fill, merchandise to sell. Unless the reviews are through the roof I will give it a miss. One for the next generation.
