Masterminds. I don't know how this is only rated 34% on rotten tomatoes, it's freaking hilarious.
Watched Tenet again the other day...well tried to. The first hour was OK when it was still being all mysterios... but not long after i'm just "na, this is just stupid". It's not that I couldnt understand what was happening as I'd seen before, and I could follow the plot then...the plot is not difficult, it's just that its...totally daft.
One of the few movies i've ever watched where I couldnt be bothered watching to the end the second time (and probably shouldn't have the 1st)...along with Blad Runner 2040 whatever year it was.
Tenet showed up on my Netflix feed the other day - I remembered wanting to see it at the movies - I remembered everyone that had seen it all said the same thing - Slowly backed away not making eye contact and continued scrolling.watched tenet, read the articles trying to explain it and still left feeling like it was a series of plot points that was never developed into a proper screen play. took 2 sittings to finish it and dont feel any better for that second effort
His brother seems to have the same problems with Westworld.Yeah, I mean I loved Inception and Interstella, where they built up a cool thing and there was woa! moments in a Matrix sort of way (weather once you have watched a coupel of times they actually make any sort of real sense at all, they were still fun and cool at the time), but Tenet...Liek I said, its not actually hard to follow what is ...overall happening, but I think Nolan got so twisted up into making it EPIC that they lost the plot (litterally) and at no point did the people making it have any clue what was going on themselves.
IMO.Westworld.
That's a pity. I'd heard really good things about it.IMO.
First series - excellent.
Second series - woeful, pointless "explainer" series for stupid Americans.
Third series - seconds series in a new setting.
I managed 5 series and moved on - that could be as they were strung out waiting for the new ones each time - didn’t hate it just lost interest.That's a pity. I'd heard really good things about it.
Probably not quite the right thread but I've been hoovering up The Walking Dead through various lockdowns and it's bloody good. Up to Season 7 now and it hasn't lost its way yet (which is pretty impressive in itself, more so when every season is packing 16 episodes).
Certainly a commitment but it has the capacity to gut punch you in the feels and the character development is excellent. Also capable of being disturbing on a cellular level, so if you like watching messed up stuff you'll be into it.
Fair, it's worth giving another go if (at least until Season 7) if you can be bothered though. They shake things up a bit in Season 6 which adds a pretty cool dynamic that's new to the series.I managed 5 series and moved on - that could be as they were strung out waiting for the new ones each time - didn’t hate it just lost interest.
I don’t think I even disliked it - I think it was literally the wait between seasons and I just stopped. I will get to it again after I finish my nostalgia run.Fair, it's worth giving another go if (at least until Season 7) if you can be bothered though.

Serious question on 3rd, haven't seen it yet, and the missus is the one who actually complained about the lack of boob and wang.IMO.
First series - boobs.
Second series - not enough boobs because of puritanical Americans.
Third series - does it have enough boobs?
I think the opening episode or two deliver on this front, but then falls away quickly.Serious question on 3rd, haven't seen it yet, and the missus is the one who actually complained about the lack of boob and wang.
it's a nice bridge...
This is what Alien Vs Terminator should have been....prolly the best genre movie in a long time, and while not as good as good as Edge of Tomorrow, at least it didn't have Tom Cruise as the comic relief, and was much easier to follow after only one view.the tomorrow war on amazon. not a classic but a very enjoyable action movie
Was enjoyable but there are just so many plot holes. Like:the tomorrow war on amazon. not a classic but a very enjoyable action movie
Was enjoyable but there are just so many plot holes. Like:
- Why not use nukes? Okay, boomer.
- Why poison as opposed to virus or bacteria? Speed, resistance, mutation, species jumping? If that was a viable solution, mixo would mean no more wascally wabbits in Australia.
- Why did it take scientists in the past to look at the claw for clues of the origin? They weren't being eaten, like the future scientists and the Volcano kid was probably dead in the future.
- Why not just blow the ship up? They did, didn't they?
- Why aren't the antagonists frozen solid?
- Seriously why wouldn't you just use the 1000s of nukes humans have in storage? Um, what's the point of surviving, if you don't have a habitable planet to live on, boomer?
- If we can time travel, can't we just transport matter (ie a nuke) from a to where the whole thing begins? That particular McGuffin was explained in the training sequence, act 2.
Dr Strangelove had it right back in the 60s.
