    65

    I actually quite like Kylo Ren Adam Driver as an actor…..or maybe it just seems that way in comparison to the other shithouse characters the last three SW movies introduced.

    Anyway, this sounded quite intriguing……but was shit. Fuck all dialogue ( due to him and the young girl speaking different languages ) and pointless dinosaur chases that we’ve seen a million times already in Jurassic Park. How the hell did they go so far back in time ?

    Absolute crapola.

    1.5 crash landings out of 5 falling out of trees

    yeah, was also a bit disappointed....i wasnt even sure they had gone back in time as they came form a different planet didnt they....and so it may have been 65 million years in the past for us the viewer....but not them?....not im not sure

    I was past caring after a few minutes to be honest

    @mariner4life fuck you are so right about Statham. I watched both of the Meg movies with my 10 year old boy and he was just classic Statham in both, which was heaps of fun to watch with the boy.

    There's a Stath movie I remember where he wasn't full Stath, can't remember what it was called but it was a period piece and it involved pics of Princess Margaret.

    Ah fuck, I'll look it up. The Bank Job.

    That was quite good. It had Saffron Burrows in it, the chick from the shark film

    Yawn. Just don't watch, it's not a genre you're forced to watch. I don't watch horrors and don't listen to yacht rock 😉 because I'm not forced to.

    You should. Even bad ones can be entertaining.

    But if it is a genre you like and they fuck it up by jumping on every band wagon of the day, you can be pissed off. I love fantasy, and am a total ME nerd, then they made the abortion that is the rings of power. Not only did it shit on the lore, it was also shit. Same as the latest MCU stuff.

    No I'm not forced to watch it, but I can still be pissed with what they spend millions making when there are really good examples out there of how to do it properly

    I just don't find the majority of them entertaining. If I did watch them then I'd be posting in this thread whining about them constantly.

    You just have to hope they make ones you like again. Just like I live in hope that one day Zac Snyder will finally make a good film to follow up 300. 🙂

    Have you seen The Marvels? In my top half of MCU films, thoroughly enjoyed it

    @Machpants similarly I love the Shannara books, and sure they are LOTR lite, but the series was pathetic woke teen angsty bs, but it was made by MTV, so it was expected.

    Comic book movies are retarded bullshit for children and the worst adults in any society. If you are a Marvel "fan" then you need to go to a re-education camp immediately.

    That garbage has crowded out adult genre movies for over a decade, it has sucked in new directors and actors with the money, the sooner that pathetic garbage is out of society the better. People pointing at tennis balls in front of a green screen. A cancer upon the arts.

    This. 100%.

    The sooner we can get back to 80s B movies with a yacht rock soundtrack the better. 😬

    The only superheros I like are Batman and Iron Man.

    I guess I have a thing for billionaires fighting for justice.

    I’m also probably bitter because Marvel is more popular than Star Wars now.

    That might have something to do with the fact that Star Wars has been mostly shit since The Empire Strikes Back and has been living on past glories since 1980.

    AND has been taking your money ever since then.

    marvel can put out 2-3 movies every year (with lots actually being very good or at least fun to watch) and star wars has done like 5 in the last 15 years...none of which universally loved IMO (i enjoyed rogue one and even solo had its moments) but know others dont)...not surprising Marvel is currently more popular...i dont know why star wars doesnt copy the marvel model, star smallish (iron man was just about taking over a company)...and tease bigger things coming

    marvel is obviously on the way out, deadpool is the only movie being released next year and thats MCU adjacent, i am/was a big marvel fan but only watched the last few on disney+ ....havent even watched secret invasion
