@KALofKRYPTON Awesome, I’m glad you watched and enjoyed it. It’s been on my ‘to watch’ list on Netflix for ages, but I haven’t got round to watching it. I will try to make time for it this week 👍

@RogerRoger
Saw a very good Star Wars prequel edit today. Lord knows how it's still up, but it's been on YouTube for 3 years!

It's called Fall of the Jedi.

I know you're a prequel fan, but I found it incredibly satisfying. A little janky here & there, but some very smart editing choices I thought.

Finally got around to watching The Predator. Shouldn't have bothered.

Just got back from watching Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and it was soooo good! The movie was entertaining from beginning to end. The characters were great and the story was pretty good as well. Visually it's stunning and one of the best 3D CGI animated movie that I've seen. The art direction in this movie was amazing. Love the vibrant colors and the idea to add filter textures and word bubbles was pure genius since they gave the movie a printed media/comic look to it. At times it also seems like your watching the movie with old 3D glasses on. It's really bringing comic book to life. I'm definitely going to watch it again when it comes out on Blu-ray but right now I think it's the best Spider-Man movie I've seen so far.

Going to watch Aquaman this weekend. Too bad the reviews aren't great. Based on the trailers it looked like the movie was gonna be good. Also, will probably go watch Bumblee next weekend as well. Wasn't planning to initially since Bay and gang pretty much ruined the franchise but this one's getting good reviews.

Also, Amy Adams says that DC movies are being revamped.

@WanderingBullet Since when have trailers been a good indication of how good the movie is? They either show way too much or have a load of scenes which aren't in the movie.

Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.

Saw Wreck it Ralph 2 the other day, pretty good (not sure I'd watch it twice mind you), but as @Ralizah says, the first film is much better.

This new Spider-Man film looks like it could be really good, hoping I can find someone to watch it with, my wife doesn't seem overly keen after having seen the trailer.

@JohnnyShoulder I was saying I liked what they showed in the trailers. Usually, I'm less tempted to go watch a movie if I thought the trailer(s) was either bad or boring.

They either show way too much...

You can always avoid watching them if you're worried about spoilers. That's what I usually do with games (especially the story driven ones) I know I'm gonna buy.

@WanderingBullet Yeah I usually skip trailers for most things these days. I even have to ignore some topics to stop news stories popping up in my news feed. Stuff like '13 Things we Found out About the new Avengers Movie'. I'd rather go into a movie not knowing all the plot points thank you very much.

Watched the Outsider (Netflix Original Film) tonight.

Set in 1954 Osaka, it follows Nick, an expat who finds himself welcomed into the world of the Yakuza after he saves one of their own while in prison. Pretty good watch. It leaves some things unexplained (like why Nick was in a Japanese prison in the first place) as the story focuses more on the here & now, but if you enjoy 20th century period pieces and or Japanese themed films it's worth a look.

Also recently watched Geostorm (DVD) recently. It was fun enough if you can turn off your brain, lol.

I watched the Endless on Netflix last night and gosh darn it was my kinda film. Low budget but nicely acted and directed.

Now I may be an idiot, but there's one thing I am not sir, and that sir, is an idiot

I watched "The Wrong House" last night, a 2013 straight to DVD horror movie with an interesting synopsis (folk visit a house, every time they try and leave the grounds they end up back at the entrance) but it was shocking in all the wrong ways. I expected as much to be fair, and it was a perfect way to round off a Saturday spent walking round in the rain to avoid the builders after minimal sleep the night before.

@kyleforrester87 Oh yeah, I remember that. But it was a game, and called "P.T."

Rubbish. Kojima is a true visionary. Clearly The Patriots sent someone back in time to make this terrible indie horror film in a bid to destroy Kojima's reputation and discredit his revolutionary insights.

@kyleforrester87 I am a digitized lifeform born from the gradually accumulating memetic data produced by our computerized society. I seek to provide context and help direct the cultural evolution of humanity, which is ill-equipped to do so by its own means.

Err... I mean, I am a normal, everyday human. I like to post on video game websites for trivial entertainment purposes and to help fill the void left by my otherwise meaningless mortal existence. Or, as we biological homo sapiens say: 'It was just a prank, bro.'

Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha.

Wow.

Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse.

Wow.

Best film of 2019. It's a visual tour-de-force, with some of the most creative and visually dynamic animation I've ever seen. For such a bizarre crossover, the narrative is surprisingly grounded and emotionally resonant, too. Also a great introduction to Miles Morales for those of us who don't really read superhero comics.

I didn't see it in 3D, but you should probably see it in 3D. It looks like it was filmed with 3D in mind.
