Last Film You Saw

No Time To Die - Watched it when it 1st came out (2021) and enjoyed it just as much this time. Craig was a fantastic Bond, easily the best of the bunch.
 
Watched the last Mission Impossible movie. Very disappointing end to the franchise. I can appreciate the stunts etc but it felt like they'd written part one without thinking about how part two might finish and then wrote part two as fan service no one wanted. On the plus side Hayley Atwell is not hard to look at although Tom Cruise's increasingly puffy face is.

A pleasant surprise was Thunderbolts. Perhaps with very lowered expectations after Captain Red Hulk it was still an entertaining movie which didn't quite nail the ending unless you believe in the mystical power of hugs. If they ever make a female Joker movie then JLD would be a good choice

Mm... Not sure that's what happened with the film.

I believe the second part had been shot (done back to back) and was supposed to be released the following year from 'Dead Reckoning', but I think covid had an effect on cinema and then political events changed the film (I think it was Israel related?). I could be wrong, but I believe there were reshoots with that in mind.

Maybe I'm conflating other affected films...

Titanic.
One of the most underrated films of all time, for absolutely no reason whatsoever. Its fucking superb. Proper 10/10.

Fun Fact - At the end of the film, when they're on the stern of the ship waiting for it to go down, there's a bloke dressed in white next to them. He's a real survivor of the sinking, and was a chef on Titanic who had a big drink problem, so he was pissed as a fart when the ship went down. He defied all the odds and survived for around 2 hours in the freezing water as his body somehow managed to stay warm enough to keep his blood flowing around his body.

It definitely doesn't feel like a coherent pair of movies. You get a big plot change in-between the two movies
 
Went to see the new Naked Gun the other week with Liam Neeson playing Leslie Nielson's son in it.. absolutely atrocious! About as funny as a burning orphanage!
