SmileSlice Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Recently finished a rewatch of my favourite movie series of all time. I’d rate the franchise overall at a 9/10. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUDGER666 Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Eddie Redmayne is such a good actor, he went from playing Stephen Hawking, to a Wizard to The Danish Girl. One of the best actors out there imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you use another site for it or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a big fan of James Wan's work as a director, pretty much always enjoy what he puts out. Have you ever watched 1999's Stir of Echoes starring Kevin Bacon? I have no idea how it has aged, but it was great back in the day. My fav Kevin Bacon role after Tremors. James Wan. The mind behind what may be the best ending scene in a horror thriller ever. Too bad he's been stuck with Aquaman 2 for ages. On 20/05/2023 at 3:53 PM, ChilledBrandon said: Fun watch, I preferred the first movie although I did really find the set design impressive in this one. Very creative escape rooms I enjoyed. Yeah, I enjoyed both, but the first movie is definitely better. Made me a fan of Taylor Russell. She's so charming and likable in these. Looking forward to watch other stuff with her, starting with Bones and All soon. @Brainz4Lunch Ready or Not is awesome. It's rare that such a high concept horror thriller can keep it's momentum going til the closing credits. Side note - I think Hollywood has been wasting Samara Weaving, Betty Gilpin and Jodie Comer. They all are super talented, charismatic and absolute badasses and I would love to see them as leads in more movies.

I think this movie proves it wrong, or at least comes as close to an "anti-war' film as possible. Have you been watching this? You should, if you haven't. @Redgrave I played a number of Vietnam themed shooters on PC around the time the original CoD came out, stuff like Men of Valor, Vietcong, Shellshock: Nam '67, and they usually were a lot more gruesome and gory than the WW2 games. Some even attempted to say something about the horrors of war and about how traumatic the Nam war was, but I don't think any game ever came close to what The Line achieved in that regard. Apropos of that, here's another great video essay from Tom van der Linden: Edited May 23, 2023 by LastMinuteSavior 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed! @djb5f If you're asking about the display with the 4 latest "recently watched" movies, you have to log films with a date for that to show. Still, when I go to your "Films" page I can see your ratings for the 200-something movies you added. For instance, I can see you gave Rise of the Skywalker 4 stars, but only 2 stars to Blade Runner 2049.

I see it listed now in my diary but I’m unclear of how to list/post my last 4 movies with ratings shown. EDIT - I see your update, lol. Blade Runner 2049 was a chore to make it through. The new SW movies didn’t “earn” 4 stars but the original trilogy holds a special place in my heart so it gets a bump for the nostalgia.

I was (mostly) kidding ? Seriously though, to each their own. And sometimes you even change your mind, get new interests, appreciate different subjects and styles. For example, I really didn't care for Sicario (another Villeneuve film) the first time I watched it, but today it's one of my all time favorites. @Caquis_1 I took care of that.

Popular Post djb5f Posted May 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) Watched the Rambo trilogy over the weekend for the first time in forever. The original First Blood was so well done (4.5 stars), masterful dialogue and tension. I also quite enjoyed the sequel (4.0 stars), good build-up even if it started getting a little “over-the-top” (pun intended), it kept me captivated. Still, as action movies aren’t generally my thing, this does it well. Reminds me of how I enjoyed the first 2 Die Hards, for example. Rambo III (3.0 stars) passes largely because the first two movies have you invested in the character. If it was a standalone film, it’d be 2.5 at best as it gets too 80’s action silly.

LastMinuteSavior Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 @djb5f You should watch the 4th one. It's a slow burn, but when Rambo finally goes postal it's super satisfying. SO. MUCH. GORE. I have no intention of watching the recent 5th film though. Smells from a distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, yeah, I haven’t seen those but want to now (at least the first one I guess?). The impetus of watching these original three is that they are being removed from HBO Max at the end of the month. Hopefully Rambo 2008 gets picked up to some streaming service soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been going by IMDB for streaming options which usually has it right but for this Rambo, it just shows it with Rent/Buy options. Glad to know I can see it on Peacock.

Caquis_1 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Went to see a local film for the first time in cinemas I believe, movies made in my country are usually considered bad by all, we have a certain type of humor that is almost outdated for a lack of words. The movie actually surprised me, it started almost bad and I expected the worst but it got a lot better, just wanted to said something about peruvian films lol, I know most people that read this won't see it. On the other hand, I absolutely loved GOTG 3, hence the rewatch lol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
