The Film Thread

[sycophantia]

Except this 'Stardust' is the 2020 film about David Bowie's first US tour...

yeah I know, was just being humerous.......never works haha

 

[leedswolf]

Is that the one with no David Bowie music in it?

The one with very little David Bowie music in it.

 

[sycophantia]

What's the point of a film about a Bowie tour with not much of his music in it? Would be about the time when he was at his best (imo) and lets face it he talked nonsense most of the time

North West Wolf would be hunting you down like a dog if he were here

Without giving too much away, he wasn't anywhere near realising his artistic best. This is pre-Ziggy...

Is it? Didn't realise he'd toured the USA that early.....I'll probably give this one a miss

Wonder Woman 84.

Load of rubbish. Miles worse than the first film. Basic plot was just about passable, but there was so much bizarre shite to make it all happen that it just falls apart when you think back about any of it. So much that it becomes laughably bad.

Just watched it and thought it was weird, although Kristen Wiig does look sexier as a Cheetah hybrid.

It wasn't a good movie.

In defence haven't seen it, but the kids were telling me about the new Dr Doolittle movie, Robert Downey jnr. affecting an unbelievably bad Welsh accent, I might have to see it just to witness that

It was really boring. No excuse for a comic book movie to be boring.

Watched Dunkirk for the first time yesterday - decent enough

Alternately I just watched Soul which was really good.

Was it like how you remembered?

Even I don't go that far back & if I had been there would no doubt have been more traumatised than I am

Was a slightly sanitised version I suspect as you couldn't have shown what it was really like

Soul was excellent. Pixar at their best.

Don’t pop up very much on this thread. But I recently watched Soul and thought it was rubbish!

I thought it was funny and made some good points about the human condition but not in a sledgehammer Disney way.

Much better than Wonder Woman (both) anyway!

 

[PPB]

Fatman. Gets a 6/10 from me.

 

[Pablowolf]

Just watched The New Mutants, with her from The Queen's Gambit, him from Stranger Things and her from Game Of Thrones.

Load of shite.

Watched The Midnight Sky last night, two hours where virtually nothing happens which builds up to an crescendo of nothing happening, someone somewhere must have had an idea, wrote it on a post it note and then George Clooney has come along and said I can stretch that out into a couple of hour movie.
