Apparently there is a new movie version or themed or sequel not sure which. of I know What You Did Last Summer.  This prompted me to watch the original 1997 version. I have to say it's aged very well and is still excellent movie and incredibly influenced so many film of it's genre. Also Sarah Michell Gellar and Jennifer Love Hewitt look so very pretty and cute. Apparently they make an appearance in the 2025 version. The  digitalisation has made it a lot better quality than when I watched it over 25 years ago.

Just watched William Tell; very disappointing. His wife is played by an Iranian. Tell has nothing in the way of a personality. Gessler doesn't look anything like Marius Goring, he's not a Landburger, and isn't even fat. Worst of all they don't even use Rossini's Lone Ranger tune, not even David Whitfield singing it at the end. Bit like going to see a Batman  film and then finding they don't use the Dinner, dinner, dinner Batman music.

A Superman. Who isn't Super. Just because it doesn't fit with MODERN AUDIENCE. Deserves to bomb. Singer made his Superman movie dull as dishwater. Synder was all doom and gloom. And now Gunn has made it woke. Donner hit the nail on the head. 40 years ago. How fucking hard can it be.?

The good news for any movie goer is. Even a giant movie studio like Warner Bro can only keep pissing away a billion dollar gambles. Before the arsehole falls out.

[Jean-Luc Paul Goddard]

Haven't seen anything about it but saw there is a Supergirl in  it, so nailed on she saves Superman...

SPOILER: apparently it's Louis Lane who saves him, flying a spaceship.  That's how shit it sounds.  That review from Mike Francesa says it's 2 hours of Superman being beaten up.

Don't you just hate it when they bring modern politics into films?

Just because Superman's an illegal immigrant they make out that the born and bred American Lois Lane is more of a hero than him. Proper MAGA shit right there, innit?

Hardly surprising in this day and age, but the new Superman looks shit.

Watched Go With Me (Blackway in the US) Anthony Hopkins and Julia Styles with Ray Liota, not a bad watch as it goes. 

I like Julia Styles and Ray RIP so I might check that out. 

I actually watched it last night. Was OK 6.5/10. 

[zico]

Watched Gladiator 2 last night and it's the perfect example for leaving classics well alone.  Not sure what Ridley Scott was thinking!  Think I'll steer clear of the new Superman as well.

[Iron Duke]

Ah, the famous fallout between Mick McCarthy and John O’Shea. I remember it well.

[honky cat]

I'm not sure who's playing Gary Breen. One to avoid possibly . .

Watched "Honest Thief" a Liam Neeson action flick couple of nights bacik on Netflix. Pretty decent to be fair, not as good as Taken but better than some of his others. 

[Swiss.]

Quite enjoyed Ballerina a spin off from the John Wick universe but then I adore Ana de Armas. 

[Council Scum]

Watched Heads of State last night. A good shoot'um romp. Priyanka Chopra is easy on the eye.  

Agreed

In no way am I suggesting this but I stumbled across an old Stallone film, "Cobra" from the 80's on ITV.  It's ok, not one of his best but I thought something was familiar and realised that it co-starred Reni Santoni as a cop who also played Harry Callaghan's partner in Dirty Harry and Andrew Robinson as a Detective.  Robinson played Scorpio, the serial killer in Dirty Harry.  A bit of totally useless information for you all.

Loved Robinson in Dirty Harry especially the scene when the black dude beat him up for free,the screen's great villians.

Trailer for The Running Man re-make is out.

Worth Hunting Down.

[Council Scum]

Check out Clown In a Cornfield. A better slash horror than the norm. 

Gave it a watch yesterday, when they all started coming out the field I said to the missus I thought it was gonna be a Hot Fuzz scenario... 

[Swiss.]

Watched The Amateur on Sunday. I highly recomend it. Sort of in the Taken/Revenge genre but one of the better ones.

Watched Sinner yesterday, very Dusk till Dawn but worth a watch. 

Reminded me of Dusk till dawn meets Crossroads(the blues story not the soap opera) , thoroughly enjoyed it, wife was not expecting the sudden change from a 30s gangster movie. 

well thanks for ruining the change for everyone else

Stop crying you baby.
