    Just had to sit through the new Thor film and was surprised just how watchable it was. Some actually funny scenes in it, oddly enough. Two hours zoomed by. Nice looking young lady in the film too - Tessa Thompson.

    A bloke came to the Cinema this evening and asked is it a kids film? I explained it is a Marvel film. Super hero kind of thing. He decided to watch. As he left he came up to me and said he thought it was excellent.

    I should say on the doc - you really should see "Man in the Moon" before this doc if you haven't already. I know Carrey is a bit of a love him / hate him actor but I think it's the part he ever got.

    Good to hear you enjoyed Sorcerer It took me years too as it didn't get a release over here and obsure dvd imports were north of fifty quid for years.

    Last time I took 'must buy' advice from this board I ended up with a lifetime supply of coconut oil. Resist, and accept the socks with a smile!

    Saw Star Wars today, not really all that impressed, without wishing to get into spoilers, the pacing was all over the shop and it ended half an hour after it should have

    Hmmm. I'm going tomorrow. From what I have read most of the film critics rate it, but the public is luke warm ('Use the Force, Luke!')

    Saw it yesterday, really enjoyed it. Middle film in a trilogy is usually a bit tricky i thought this carried it off well, though i do agree its a bit too long, not sure what i would cut out though.

    I have a pretty decent idea regarding what I think they could have cut out, but I'd have to see it again to be sure, its a decent enough film but its no Empire Strikes Back which is what I've seen and heard it compared to

    Yeah its no Empire.
    From most reviews I've seen from the general public, the majority who have seen it a second time have enjoyed it more on that viewing,Theres certainly bits that could have been trimmed and tightened up but because of the way it was structured i cant see any actual storyline cuts they could have made, everything had to fit to come together at the films end, which i think it did, just.

    Seen it five times now and it just keeps getting worse and worse. I work at the local cinema before someone says "if it is so bad why do you keep watching it"!! It is at best boring and needs 45 mins trimming off it. There are so many holes in the plot it is unreal. Without any spoilers - what was the whole point of 'that' mission? It produced nothing but dragged the film out.

    I think it was just to put the characters in a position of peril at the end of it so the other thing going in the pods has a purpose.

    Also as the director has his own trilogy to come that has nothing to do with the Skywalkers then i would bet that the very final scene is a part of that.

    Obviously we could be talking about a completely different mission....

    They also completely bottled some interesting ideas regarding some of the main characters

    Really didn't like it. Just before going in, I heard people on a podcast rating it higher than Empire Strikes Back, so my expectations were, perhaps, too high.

    The pacing was poor, too many jokes, most being Disneyesque and cute, some too corny.

    My other issues contain spoilers.

    Good movie? Yes. Groundbreaking? No. Not as good as Rogue One. Possibly not as good as The Force Awakens.

    Saw ‘Wonder’ this week. I’m a bit of a softy, but it’s the best feel good film I’ve seen since Silver Linings Playbook. Defy you not to cry

    Just seen the new Jumanji.
    It was surprisingly enjoyable, would recommend people to see it over Christmas if they’re bored with the kids.

    EDIT - Karen Gillan is absolutely gorgeous in it as well.

    Yeah really good film mate. I had to get passed the worn out 'had the perfect life that changed over night' bollocks at the beginning but I really enjoyed it after that.
