I’m kind of interested in checking out Gotti. I reckon it might be a fun b movie.

Re-watched Pirates of Penzance today. Completely ridiculous film, but my lord Kevin Kline is brilliant.

You should watch The Pirate Movie now for the real benchmark in Pirates of Penzance films.

I dunno about that. I've been watching Kline's version for near on 20 years now and love it every time I watch.

Is that Brad Pitt or Robert Redford with a fantastic facelift?

 

[Kong]

Haha, they do look fairly similar.

I'm so keen for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Haha, they do look fairly similar.

I'm so keen for Once Upon a Time in America.

It came out in '84, see it now!

OUATIA was rubbish.

Watched Highlander last night. Hadn’t watched it in years. When his wife passes away I found myself blubbing like a schoolgirl. Wtf?? Such a good film. A Spanish Sean Connery with a Scottish accent was weird but aside from that. Superb.

Loved that movie.
Loved a lot less everything that came after it.

There was talk of a reboot at some stage with i think dave bautista as kurgen.
I think the Ant Man writers had written a script with a 2019 release targeted.

I'd completely forgotten how good the film was. Stoked I watched it again.

As for a reboot, if the Ant Man writers are doing it I wouldn't be upset, just cautious.

enjoyed this - I feel like Edgar Wright keeps getting better while Kevin Smith went the other way

ive been forced to sit thru he greatest showman 3 times by the kids - what were anyone's thoughts?

Watched The Power of One for the first time Saturday night. Quite enjoyed it. That little blonde kid was pretty cute. Shame he had to grow into Stephen Dorff. Oh yeah, also a 26 yo Daniel Craig was quite bizarre as the Nazi Afrikanner police dude.

Genuine question; when was Kevin Smith actually good?

He seems to have this amazing reputation online, but I've never understood it.

hmm - I reckon there was a freshness and a snappyness to the dialog that was appealing for a time. Was something I hadn't really experienced before

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Dialogue, maybe. But he can't make a film for s**t.

Chasing Amy is almost a film and then it hits a point where it just blows itself up.

I think for memory he actually acknowledges that, he only ever intended to be a small town jersey film maker..

didn't Damon and Affleck ask him to direct good will hunting and he said no, you need a real director for this ?

 

[Runk]

Does anyone feel the plot hole being talked about in The Dark Knight ruins the film?

For me, it does not at all and i think those writing about it online are really reaching for something to complain about.
