That new everest movie, good show but sad. You sure need alot of drive and things going for you to make it up and down safely on that mountain.

Watched a phew films lately, the first 2 expendables not bad if you have some beers at the same time. Second one is probably the best of the two. Also watched The Theory of Everything which as really good recomend it for sure. Then for some reason ended up watching Boat Trip, what a load of rubbish, although plenty of hot birds and spose it's quit funny in parts. :?

The Expendables - 6/10
The Expendables 2 - 7/10
The Theory of Everything - 8/10
Boat Trip - 4/10

Just got my surround sound set up again now HWMBO has decided the front room is staying as is (yeah right) so the most recent thing I've watched is actually Star Wars. Not A New Hope, the original, pre tampering, Han shoots first cinematic version from the 2006 dvd release. Feckin awesome.

What we do in the shadows - genius. Its on netflix and a rare film these days to make me L O L

The Martian. I went with a mate to see this and thought i could get some kip. But really enjoyed it. Matt Damon was excellent, the support cast was 1st class and what appears to be a format genre I hate, i really really became engrossed. I was secretly hoping some alien life would appear somewhere...

Went to spectre last night.
Overall I thought it was a very good film, maybe not quite as good as skyfall, but extremely enjoyable. It did play as a more classical bond but all the good stuff was there, great set pieces, awesome cars, stunts and girls and the theme tune fits perfectly with the film and on a IMAX screen enough said....

Saw spectre last night as well. For me, it's up there with Skyfall and Casino Royale. That said, I was pretty bored for the first 45 mins or so- it was just 'same old' again. A couple of things didn't really add up for me and it's starting to feel tired.

It totally picked up though and I thoroughly enjoyed it in the end. I hope they think carefully about where they go next with it all. Maybe they should go back to the past with a rookie Bond.

I saw it last night. Not sure what to make of it. It's definitely not a bad film, but I don't think I'll ever watch it again. A bit throw away, i guess. Not a patch on skyfall, it's too long and you're right it is starting to feel a bit samey.
Worth a watch, but if you're a casual bond fan like me you're not missing anything if you don't see it.

On further reflection, actually wasn't up there with Skyfall and Casino Royale. Better than Quantum of Solace though. Like you Weas, feeling a little indifferent towards it.

I'm amazed at some of the reviews it's had. Lots of 5 Star reviews from the likes of The Times, who are normally very harsh. Seems like everyone's jumped on the bandwagon. Also smashed the UK opening box office record.

Just seen Spectre thought it was the best one he's done, still not Bondie enough for me. Does make me want to watch the previous three again though. Next trip to the cinema will be for TFA. :p :arrow:

I watched San Andreas last night. Absolute dross. Do Americans still really like having token 18th century English accents in films? Have any of these directors ever even been to England? Nobody talks like that.

I quite enjoyed the action sequences but the story, acting etc is garbage.
