Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Glass Onion: really enjoyed this and found it every bit as good as Knives Out. Your chance has gone to see it on the big screen though, it'll be on Netflix just before Christmas.
Matilda 2022: also pretty damn good, I could actually make out the lyrics to what was being sung unlike a lot of other films nowadays. Being a musical its a totally different film to the great Matilda film of the 90's. I have seen the stage show some years back and dont remember it being much good but this was fun.

Watched that SAS in the desert shenanigans. I'm not one for bs like this but I have to admit it was multi dimensional and was written by the Peaky Blinders geezer. Recommended.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
The trailer for Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
I think there's going to be some sort of time travel device in it. They must be using the same de-aging tech they used for The Irishman. I thought that just didn't work, so f*ck knows how it's going to make an 80-year-old Harrison Ford into a convincing 30-something action adventurer.
Anyway, I predict that it's going to be sh*t.

Finished the second series of Gangs of London last night - quite fun but very silly.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
I also watched a very enjoyable film called "The Outfit" - Mark Rylance plays a bespoke tailor from London in 1950's Chicago. Very much felt like a play and would easily adapt to the stage. Really very enjoyable - he's one of my favourite actors.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Yes - again it was very silly, with massive big shoot-outs with automatic weapons happening in London etc.Long slender neck wrote: ↑Fri Dec 02, 2022 4:22 pmDid you like the first series?StillSpike wrote: ↑Fri Dec 02, 2022 4:04 pm Finished the second series of Gangs of London last night - quite fun but very silly.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Halfway through The Adam Curtis doc now and every episode is blowing my mind. Must admit i didnt know much about any of the events that happened but some of it is properly f*cking mental.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
He basically works backwards from what he wants to suggest. He’s very good at telling a story, and very good at utilising archive footage. But watch with a critical eye for leaps of logic, assumptions and assertions that aren’t backed up, and ominous, fatalistic conclusions without examining other possibilities or scrutinising the positions he takes up. He’s a good storyteller, no doubt about that.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
The recent 100 years of the BBC thing with Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse was done in the style of Adam Curtis. Most people watching wouldn't have realised though. I found it very funny

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Last night I watched "Croc!" - British made B-movie creature feature. Definitely falls into the "so-bad-that-it's-good" category, like, say, Sharknado.
Awful plotting (there's a man-eating Crocodile roaming a popular wedding venue in Hampshire yet no one's noticed it before our heroes show up for a wedding at the apparently deserted venue), terrible scripts, useless creature features and downright appalling acting (not even Am-Dram standard) adds up to much more than the sum of its parts. Don't pay to watch it, for God's sake, but do try to find it if you can.

Violent Night.
Imagine what you'd get if you crossed Die Hard, Home Alone and Bad Santa. Violent Night is the b*stard love child of these three awesome films and delivers wholesome family festive fun.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Reminds me I also watched Silent Night the other day, with Keira Knightly and Mathew Goode (I don't mean I watched it with them, I meant that they were in it).
Really quite good - an interesting concept that I won't go into as it would spoil it. Not perfect, but recommend it.
