Saw it last night in 3D in a DBOX Hoyts

Rehashed some stuff for sure but gee it was good fun

DBOX worth it? Looked kinda gimmicky to me.

I'm seeing Avatar later today at the new IMAX at Carousel (I'm sceptical that it's a real IMAX).

3hrs?! Dang.
I hope there was an intermission

I've been seeking out the 90min movies lately. I think I'm done for a while with the over blown yet little substance movies that seem Hollywood's current ziagist.

That, and there are no new ideas anymore. Everything is a remake or sequel/prequel of existing IP

Ideal movie for DBox I reckon.

Just got to grab the chickens (the only part of the Christmas feast we 'cheat' with, we get them cooked from Red Rooster cut into eighths, then heat them up tomorrow, rather than doing it all ourselves) and that is Christmas shopping finished

I'll be preparing my ham glaze later today ready for tomorrow. Recipe passed down from my grandmother.

Never seen an Avatar and haven't ever heard anything that makes me want to.

This.

Absolutely zero desire.

I really enjoy the Avatar movies - they're great switch off your brain don't think too much fun.

They are massively overrated though.

Why is Violent Night not on any streaming service? You'd think it would be one of the only rewatchable modern Xmas movies.

Look, just coz you have 7 different streaming services that doesn't mean you should expect to be able to watch just anything!

Probably have to buy from Amazon. F*cken bullshit hey.

Why is Violent Night not on any streaming service? You'd think it would be one of the only rewatchable modern Xmas movies.

Because each streaming service believes it's preferable economically to not have it and they don't actually give a shit about the consumer themselves.

Also each of their prices are going up next year and they'll be showing more ads.

The first Avatar movie only went gangbusters because of the 3D gimmick. Is the new one in 3D?

Always thought that it was wild that they commissioned 4 sequels off of the success of the first one. I have zero interest in seeing any of the new movies.

 

[Biggie]

DBOX very much worth it for mine.

And this was the best version of 3D Ive seen, far better than the original for mine and I am not a fan of 3D generally

 

[Ochre]

Only time I've tried Dbox I'd had several beers beforehand and set it to max and don't do that

Macaulay Culkin doesn’t think ‘Die Hard’ is a Christmas film: “Don’t fight me!”

Macaulay Culkin has said in a new interview that he doesn't believe that 'Die Hard' is a Christmas film, saying "don't fight me".

He's right.

I don't get why people care.

I mean we have a lengthy discussion on the Scandals and Rumours board about whether Lachie Neale is permitted to fornicate with people that aren't his wife, so this makes a refreshing change.

You say "I mean" a lot.

Everybody talks about Die Hard being a Christmas movie, but nobody acknowledges that Batman Returns is also a Christmas movie.

 

[RookiePick]

You'd have thought intermissions would have made a comeback at some point considering a lot of their profit comes from selling 5c of popcorn and 20c worth of coke for $20 and an intermission would help them sell more

Lethal Weapon and Gremlins don't get the Christmas recognition they deserve either.

 

[Forward Press]

Dumb and Dumber and The World is Not Enough are also Christmas movies.

Freedom of peen doesn't mean freedom from consequence!

What’s the pro-cheating argument?

What’s the pro-cheating argument?

same as mountaineering - because it's there...
