Just turned this game on after a nap. Mcnicholl? Did I just wake up in 2013?

Latest Ghostbusters - I can't tell if this was an actual bad movie or just an average movie. Either way it wasn't good.
@MiketheSnow Early on I was wondering how they made an attractive actress look so unattractive.
Tossing up whether to see it. Very mixed reviews. But, how about Ernie Hudson. Holy sh1t!
Yeah, he looked much better aged than Akyroyd and Murray.
If you're a big Ghostbusters fan it might still tick the boxes for you.
Tbf Murray has looked like shit for 50 odd years.

Fark me. If Weepu ate all the pies then Tupou ate all the Weepus.

@Kiwiwomble said in Star Wars VII ****contains spoilers****:
kind of looks ok...but dont think it actually explains where this is sitting in the timeline other than the jedi seem to be in full swing so pre EPIII
Famously they claim before Maul a sith hadn't been seen for a long time so is this in the distant past...or just some retcon?
A millennia irrc. So more cannon busted if the Sith pop up. Probably just went back 100 years so they could get a Yoda cameo in. Being helmed by Leslie Hedland is not promising either.

Jaws
Yeah hasn't aged well. Kind of freaked me out that Roy Schneider was younger than I am now when he played that role. The 3 mains are great in their roles and the music is still awesome but fark me that shark looks terrible (except for that scene where it eats that scout dude, that's cool). -

This may sound like heresy but those tits cannot make up for the awfulness of that voice.
When you coming out?

I love these things on FB……
The makers of Face/Off really did make sure we left our brains at the door and this guy actually misses a few movie sins….
I think it was as long as it was cos half of it was in fucken slow motion ( seriously John Woo, so gratuitous and wanky ), the whole premise is just SUCH absolute bullshit, Cage hams it up in his usual annoying way, Travolta is pretty annoying too ( as he is often is in movies that aren’t Pulp Fiction or SNF )
How many times do they shoot at each other and miss ?
Does the movie not notice that they have completely different head shapes ?
…..yet it’s still a guilty pleasure that’s genuinely fun to watch every few years.
Absurd movie but highly entertaining. What I found completely effed up was how many innocent people were massacred in the crossfire while John Travolta's character was trying to get his life back.

Surely there is a massive liability issue when a competition is basically offering an incentive to do things that are bad for you i.e. won't they be sued into oblivion 10 years down the line?
Hasn't stopped anyone to date.... Isn't this just bringing something that's been going on for ages, out into the open?
In some sports for sure. Others you will definitely see some major differences.

Nope. They'll have the liability issues sorted. Would be like bodybuilders suing the organisers of Mr Olympia or any other bodybuliding comp for that matter.

Just saw this:
Essentially Olympics with no drug testing. Million dollar prizes for breaking world records. I'm actually surprised it took this long for a comp like this. James Magnussen is going for it and I expect others to follow. Too much money to ignore. This could be huge.
It will be interesting to see if the records for the Enhanced Games will differ much from the Olympic Games...
I think they definitely will in some sports, particularly when all bets are off and they can go all out and juice to the gills. Considering there are still old East German records still standing, I'd say women's swimming and athletics could see some incredible times.

@Rancid-Schnitzel the shine is coming off some Marvel stuff as well. I saw the trailer for something called "Madame Web" and it looks less than even mildly interesting
The shine has been coming off pretty much since End Game. Spiderman is probably the only massive draw left and he's Sony.
They should reboot it with the characters that are actually popular.

Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom
Should really be called "... and the Lost Franchise"
I have good memories of the first Aquaman film. We were in Taupo in 2019 during January, and at a bit of a loose end after dinner. While we had to pay cash (they didn't accept Credit Card at the time), we settled in for a bit of Jason "Fucking" Momoa in what was a decent flick from memory.
So a couple of Sundays ago, we were once again at a loose end. The writers strike has given us lean pickings in terms of cinema viewing. The new Aquaman film was on, so what the hell.
The DC franchise is a dumpster fire, by and large. Expectations were low.
They were met.
The CGI was generally good. The funny parts were mostly funny. But it was just bullshit and failed at any point to generate engagement.
1 armored shark out of 5 glowing seahorses.
What the hell happened to DC? How do you fůck up Batman Superman and Wonder Woman? I remember watching some amazing DC cartoons with my boys when they were younger. So much good material to work with yet it's gone to poop. Marvel the same obviously, but DC never got anywhere near Marvel levels of success in the past 15 years.
