Iām having trouble getting through The Dig. Itās been paused on my Continue Watching list for, like, two weeks now.
The dig: I died towards the end and quit for good. Iām not much an action movie person and the rhythm was too fast and frantic for me.
I thinking Robocop is very cool. Music is awesome. Iām talking about old film (1987).
@st3aLth the original Robocop is an old favorite of mine.
Recently we watched The Little Things and Judas and The Black Messiah and we enjoyed both. The Little Things is a slooow burn and the ending is interesting. Judas and the Black Messiah really loses steam in the last 1/3 but is good and tells an important story.
Justice leagueā¦finally talk of the anti life equation and we see darkseid.
Hey idc how gay dc marvel nerddom is as an adultā¦ itās infinitely better than being a political blowhard.
Rewatching Wonder Woman ahead of the sequel arriving on blu ray tomorrow. Love that film.
I know what Iām letting myself in for with the sequel as it has not had great reviews but Iām looking forward to the popcorn terribleness nonetheless.
On the subject of theme tunes, nothing will ever beat the Rametep Chant from Young Sherlock Holmes:
Wonder Woman 1984:
No way to wash it, this is not a good film. There is a huge amount of irrelevent fluff and the usual ropey CGI from DCās art department. I liked the core story but thereās so much weaving around getting on with it. You could probably edit out half an hour or more and still have the story intact, possibly even make it a better film.
They completely lose it in places e.g. the jet thing. Really, he can suddenly fly a jet? Too much logic-breaking twaddle throughout.
Great cameo during the closing credits though.
Been rocking an outdoor projector at home for a few months now. I actually made a bit of coin selling songs to a company making a cell phone bowling game that I used to fund the (cheap) projector. Itās cool to be able to have a few people over and watch films outside being as inside is a no-go these days. Hadnāt had people over for films in years actually until the pandemic pushed us all outdoors.
Itās been super fun having a home theater thing going on. Currently using two UE Hyperbooms as a stereo pair for sound. Got one for Christmas and the other for my birthday. The sound is what I love most about the overall experience. They just sound absolutely stunning. Iām sure there are better speakers out there but they really do bring it on both the loudness and clarity fronts.
Next Friday we are going to be watching Heat, one of my all time favorite heist films.
A really, really weird, but really really good and really, really psychedelic movie is Mandy. I watched in on Shrooms the second time around, unveils an entire new dimension to the movie, which Iām quite certain was fully intended by the writer/director.
Iām a lover of Sci-Fi, and one of my favourite Sci-Fi series has to be Battlestar Galactic. Such a deep story, and so well made! āSo say we all!ā
Alien:
Still magnificent. If you canāt stay off your phone for 30 secs then youāre not going to understand why.
Did nerdy jizz at mechanical keyboards but thatās almost a sidenote
xXx: The Return of Xander Overcompensatingforbeinggayeventhoughitsokshouldreallyjustgowithit
Terrible, awful film. After 3 days of seriously intense workstuff it was perfect. I giggled a lot at it, but some of the laughs were intentional. Some of it was xXx-The-Next-Level cringe.
Great cameo near the end and weirdly Ruby Rose had most of the best lines despite a dodgy accent and was still a lot of fun.
Shame they were trying to turn it into the Fast And Formula family thing but given how low the bar for the rest of the film was, this wasnāt much further into the quicksand.
If youāre in the mood for stupid, this should definitely be on your go-to list. If thereās a danger your braincells might rub together, then avoid.
Yeah, kind of a shame because I legitimately like the original from way back when. Maybe itās mostly nostalgia. But I remember pretty much nothing of the new one. Or the Ice Cube one.
Aye, it was a bit of a piss-take out of the James Bond type of films and had a lot of giggles in that vein while still being an over-the-top actioner. Now its become a caricature of itself and trying to take itself too seriously, undermining the undermining
