Elvis. Only watched first 30 and I don't think I'll bother with the rest. I just hate Baz Luhrmanns style.
I think I lasted slightly longer. Like you I cant stand Baz's style.

Anyone seen the new D&D movie, I'm hoping it's OK? I'll be fine with heaps of neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerd references that I'll get as long as the film is not utter shit.
Like the previous ones.
Apparently it has a bit of a Princess Bride type feel to it.
If this is the case it could be terrific.

I watched it yesterday and thought it was pretty good. Well made light blockbuster style movie.

A few points…..
Overall looks much better than Crystal Skull.
I REALLY hope that annoying chick who plays the annoying droid in the Solo Movie isn’t annoying in this.
You can guarantee Mads Mikkelsen will play an awesome bad guy. It’s just how he is.
The de aging of Harrison Ford looks amazing.
Fucken size of the fluffybunny in the background at 1.08, you can be assured he’ll dish out a good beat down.

Interesting list
Lots in the top half I've not seen or seen only once
Lots in the bottom half I've seen twice or more

When you see a list like that it reminds you just how many absolute dogs have won best picture. Luckily some great ones too.

Looks like a trailer for The Mummy remake. The hillbilly version.

Taron Egerton is so watchable
Fascinating watch even if only half of it turns out to be true

Haven’t watched 3 Days of the Condor for years, but have just seen it again. Great film with some very good performances. Max von Sydow, Redford, Dunaway and a special mention to Cliff Robertson’s wig.
The early 70s was a great time for cinema.

Co-starring Clint Beaver. With the right font that could be even better.

Hot damn.

Nope
Done by the same director as Get Out which I quite enjoyed.
A bit of a silly plot about some Aliens over a horse ranch that fly past at night. The lead guy ( from Get Out funnily enough ) is fucken dull and his sister was annoying. I stopped caring and turned off after about 40 minutes.
Apt title for a movie, it’s exactly what you should say if someone suggests watching it.
