On Golden Pond. Definitely falling asleep material.

The film Southern Comfort was so bad it actually put me off the drink.

That Crouching tiger bollocks

This way of putting it really tickles me, I don't know why.
I really liked that film. It is bollocks, but it's enjoyable bollocks.

(Somehow find myself thinking about tickling the bollocks of a crouching tiger).

 

[Grassland Blue]

Starship Troopers
All 5 films, all utter American patriotic fucking bollocks and Every film with American patriotic bollocks in it,
Enders Game.
Any film with Nicholas Cage in it.
Any film produced for Netflixs
Any black and white film that doesn`t have Laurel and Hardy in it.
That Crouching tiger bollocks plus the rest of these martial arts flying though the air shite.
1917. The main actor scrambles about through mud, blood and assorted shite only to look like he`s just walked out of a military outfitters at the end of the film.

You've ruined it for me now...

Blade Runner 2049, the critics loved it but it bombed at the box office, it's unwatchable pretentious rubbish.

Both Blade Runner films are really boring.

All comic book movies other than the original Superman.
All Star Wars other than the 3 originals.
Spinal Tap, Withnail and I and The Goonies ... did not get them.
All the modern Bonds and many of the old ones.
Most of Tarantino (except loved Jackie Brown, liked Pulp Fiction and liked Reservoir Dogs)
Anything overly Patriotic.
Anything pretending to be realistic for half the movie and then suddenly going crazy Hollywood, like Gladiator or Braveheart. ( being unrealistic from the start doesn't bother me)
Anything glorifying stupid kid or teenage shit, like the Home Alones or Ferris Bueller.

Have you watched the first ever Star Wars recently? To say it’s not aged well is an understatement, it’s absolutely dreadful!

 

[DrBlueBob]

So, kind of an amalgamation of; Rainbow, The Wizard of Oz and Ted Rogers 3-2-1...
Incidentally Star Wars?
Stars are very hot places I am led to believe, so how could anything survive on them?

They went at night.

Fucking Hell I might as well delete that off my Virgin box recordings as well as Birdman then.

I liked Blade Runner 2049. It's a bit long (sigh), but it's not terrible. It remains noirish style with a measured pace to it - that's a rarity in science fiction films nowadays.

I'm not having the first one. Batman from the 1960s is a classic.
