    The Hunger Games

    What fucked up person came up with this???

    Interesting film though for sure. Lots of themes running through it. Although watching kids in a violent war is perhaps not for me.

    My 3 kids have watched all 4 movies 3x each and the older 2 have read all the books, all in the last 6 weeks of lockdown. Something about it just grabbed them

    You probably should avoid Battle Royale. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0266308/

    I've watched three of the Hunger Games but I got bored with the third and stopped there.

    Watched Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile, the Ted Bundy Netflix movie starring Zac Effron, was pretty decent.

    It's not a bad series. I liked the movies.

    I read the books too ( I know I know..)
    Found the whole propaganda angle very weird, in the final acts of the series they are hanging back not part of the main uprising. All about going along with a ‘doco crew’ to film these short ‘propos?’ to inspire everyone else. Rather then be the in the front so to speak.

    Probably didn’t help for the movies when PSH up and died before they completed filming the last movie.

    Also Jennifer Lawrence

    @Machpants it was short lived you are both safe, I suspect its just Val Kilmer sweaty that did it

    Judging from recent pics of Val I suspect he'd get sweaty walking from the couch to the cupboard to get some more chocolate biscuits.

    Tiniest bit harsh

    He got snapped very overweight at one point at the beach, so he's fat forever now. He responded to a troll about his weight saying he's sitting atoun 74kgs these days. I'd take that weight thanks!

    Hell I haven't been 74kgs since ... sometime in Secondary school probably.

    And yeah, but not if the trade off is cancer

    R.I.P.D.

    Any movie featuring Deadpool and The Dude piques my interest. It’s not just a MIB rip-off as a lot of reviews have stated. I thought this was an entertaining movie and a fun watch. Kevin Bacon even makes an appearance playing another Bostonian.

    3.5 coyotes out of 5 deados.

    Oh, and Marisa Miller for the eye candy.

    So I'd never actually seen Waterworld until tonight.

    Admittedly it's only halfway through.

    But wow.

    Just wow.

    I watched Waterworld again a few years back and thought it was OK. Not great, but not the dud some say.

    I laugh every time Dennis Hopper says "Don't just stand there, kill something!".
