Films

Yeah, it was like they needed to make him have a change of heart for the film's story arc but didn't give themselves enough time to give any logical reason for it. Totally ruined the film with one bit of lazy writing really.

Exactly, in the comic there is history of the symbiote taking on more of the personlity of the host and exphasising it but Eddie Brock should be on the evil side of things so the character in the film does not match up in any event.

A Wrinkle in Time - I've not read the books but either they were very bad or this is a very bad screenplay. The stories leapt from one place to another with no logic, with how things happened, no flow to it at all. I'll give the books the benefit of the doubt and say this was just very poorly adapted.

Okay, I'll say it. I enjoyed Black Panther. Good entertainment, enough different from the other Marvel films to make it a welcome addition, in the same way that Ant Man and the new Spiderman are. Was it that much better than some of the past Marvel films to warrant awards? Not sure, probably not. May be the timing was just right for it.

I like the fact that Black Panther and Bohemian Rhpasody are up for big awards. Nice to see films that people enjoy up for awards rather than turgid, misery films, okay big over exaggeration there but I'm trying to make a point .

Went to see Green Book last night, what a top film. Excellent from start to finish, couldn’t quite get over The extra pounds on Aragorn, but both Viggo Mortensen and Marsashala Ali are superb. The film made us laugh out loud a lot, on a touchy subject. Wasn’t until the credits that I saw it was by one of the Farrelly brothers. Thoroughly recommend this one

I wasn’t expecting much from Black Panther tbh.
After watching it I think it’s up there with the best Marvel films.

Still havent watched Ant man & the wasp.

Try it out, it's good fun. I like the humour in Ant Man.

Watched a couple of films last night...One i'd never heard of before and am surprised I hadn't as it was pretty good - credit to AV forums for the tip off.

Eye in the Sky - Helen Mirren, Alan Rickman and Aaron Paul - about the military/political decision of having to bomb a terrorist target with the risk of collateral damage, in the shape of a 9 year old girl. Very good watch, 7.5/10 (Watched on Kodi, perfect quality - available for rent on Prime, even as a subscriber )

Then went straight into Velvet Buzzsaw on Netflix - A gentle horror (later in the film) about an artist who's work is discovered upon his death and those that then profiteer from selling his art on, rather than destroying it as he wished. 7/10

Predator Vs Alien, escape to witch mountain,

1/10

Watched ‘isle of dogs’ Saturday.

Thought it was just brilliant. Wes Anderson is such a talent. His back catalogue is just phenomenal imo.

I gave this a try yesterday morning but just couldn't get into it. I still prefer The Life Aquatic and the Royal Tenenbaum films.. However, Anderson's style grates on me after a while. A bit too smug and knowing. I much prefer Michel Gondry's visual style. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is in my top 5 all time films...

Green Book. Absolutely brilliant, best film I've seen in a long while.

Tough school; Rickman's withering rebuke to the tree hugging politician is worth at least an 8 on its own, never mind the rest of it. Fantastic film, 9 for me.

Polar on Netflix.
Terrible.

 

[Midnight]

Watched a new one on netflix called Polar. Quite a good hitman caper but defo not for the squeamish.

With a bizarre OTT turn from Matt Lucas of Little Britain fame as prime bad guy, thought I was watchng Little Britain at times!

Just watched this one myself mate , agree with everything you said, I was waiting for Matt Lucas to come out with some Little Britain lines.

I liked this, but it is too similar to Fantastic Mr. Fox also by Wes Anderson which was fantastic.

Watched Hurricane on Netflix, movie about Polish pilots fighting for the RAF in the Battle of Britain.

Looked promising but too slow for me as I was expecting an actioner, later in film ended up fast forwarding to the reasonable dogfighting scenes between the tedious dialogue and weak plot.

One to miss.

Green Book. Absolutely brilliant, best film I've seen in a long while.

Watched it last night, absolutely cracking film. Proper feel good stuff, quite funny as well given the subject matter.

Spent a wet and windy Friday watching Any Given Sunday rather than playing golf...an old one but still very good.

 

[Wolf]

Lego Movie 2 - watched it today with the kids unbelievably disappointing.
