[Lord Tyrion]

Eternals. One of the poorer Marvel ones if I’m honest. Seemed to drag on at nearly 2 hours 40 minutes long.

@Lord Tyrion 10 other people in the screening with me and my daughter at 21:35 on opening night. Honestly, that Vue has to be losing so much money.

21.35 showing. Were you there in your PJ's? Fair play, I rarely go to a film starting past 7.30 ?.

I know what you mean, it rarely seems busy. Let's hope running costs are low, I'd hate to lose it.

Disappointing write up. We are down to go on Wednesday to see it. I'll make sure I have an extra large bag of sweets to see me through.

Nobody knows how to write a good NC-17 screenplay anymore.
Human civilization is obviously in rapid decline.

Remember when Brits had world renown actresses like Patsy Kensit?

Watched Spotlight on Netflix last night. Very good film and very good performances by the actors.

Doesn't surprise me.. the whole concept of them doesn't seem that interesting

Before the MCU people knew of hulk, cap, iron and Spiderman

How many had heard or liked the elementals?

More excited about Spiderman, then Dr strange than this

I’m trying to remember the last good Yank actress?

Hollywood seems to rely on Brits and Aussies, like Olivia Coleman and Kate Blanchet.
Was Catherine Hepburn the last good Septic?

Together.

James McAvoy and Sharon Horgan as a couple who hate each other, trying to get through lockdown. Funny and moving in equal parts, very well written and two great performances. It's on the iPlayer.

Meryl Streep?

Meryl Streep?

Massively overrated

Took the boy to watch Eternals. Both of us enjoyed it as an introduction to the next phase of the MCU.

I'm going to join you in this, and sit waiting for the Oscar count and abuse . She looks as though she is putting in so much effort, it is tiring watching her. I prefer actors who make it seem natural, effortless.

I did fall asleep at one point and my daughter stuck her elbow into me to wake me up. In my defence I had been up since 4:30am and it was after midnight when I nodded off for a minute or two. Don't think I missed anything important.

Watched Bloodshot on Netflix, gash.

Infinite on Amazon. Absolutely garbage.

The big name actors in these films that the big streaming services are putting out, must be being paid week. I can’t remember any StS films being particularly good.

I would go with Tuesday Weld.

The Marksman. Liam Neeson film on Amazon. Not bad.

Army of Thieves, a prequel sort of to Army of the Dead. A reasonably enjoyable heist movie, not the worst way to spend a Saturday night.

This weekend is Disney Plus day so lining up watching Shang Chi and the Jungle Cruise this weekend and as I have nothing much planned, may download The Suicide Squad as well.

I saw both of these at the cinema. Both really good fun. Proper pocorn films.

Sounds perfect for a lazy weekend. Disney Plus has proved pretty good value and to put both of these out to celebrate their anniversary as the same time as they come out on DVD is pretty decent.

If you’ve not seen Mike & Dave need wedding dates,give it a watch.
Disney+

Eternals. Bad, it was so bad ?. The lead had no personality, few of the characters made you care about them. The story I suspect is for comic aficionados only. As a film is was overlong, dull, lacking in character or interest.

Considering how many films marvel have made it was a surprise that they had not had a complete duffer up to this point. That run has come to an end. Avoid.
