Coss Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I think they knew full well that at least a third of the film needed to be basically comic homage to the original - which was a winning idea. Shitty extras, recycled plot, and hammering away on the same old lines from the original = best part of that one. I will admit to not knowing, how the various story lines, of the various movies in this franchise, link together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YimSiam Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 I will admit to not knowing, how the various story lines, of the various movies in this franchise, link together. Then the special effects are for viewers like you - but most of the stilted dialogue and comic-book fights and predictable plotline - that's all for the old-timer Star Wars fans who wanted to see a connection to the films of their youth - and we got that in full measure.

unit731 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 THE BIG SHORT. A must see for those who can comprehend why the world turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bust Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 My ex actually predicted it would happen. She said a lot of the reasoning behind Michael Burry's tactic was the mortgage insurance policies. It was an alarm bell way before the collapse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Triple 9 (2016) - Good movie, cops, crime, corrupt cops, Russians, gangs, well played, believable and young Casey Affleck does a great job, as do the other actors. Well worth a watch. The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (2005) - Tommy Lee Jones, acts and directs, off beat movie - worth a watch. If only for January Jones. Laugh Killer Laugh (2015) Moody little movie, abused kid is now a killer, worth a watch. Good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 Dad's Army 2016 - Delightful, very good movie, especially if you're a fan of the original series. True to type and a touch more double entendre than I remembered (watch out for The End). Well worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YimSiam Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 Looks Who's Back - Hitler awakes in 2014 Germany, the people love his Trump-like message. Concept with some potential, a few cheap jokes, but no plot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mekong Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 Code of a Killer Not a movie but a 2 part TV mini Series telling the story of Alec Jeffery's discovery of DNA fingerprinting and its first ever use in aa criminal case. More poignant to those who were in the UK mid 1980's and the worlds first mass DNA data taking. (Ongoing TH case drew my interest) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limbo Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 Triple 9 indeed worth a watch. 13 Hours, about Benghazi US involvment, good wtch as well Race, about Jesse Owens in Berlin 1936 Olympics. Too Hollywood for my taste but interesting enough since I love running Gods of Egypt, terrible movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
