Maf Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Detective Pikachu and John Wick 3 come out on the same day. Seems like a natural double feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmark Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Great marketing here regardless what you think of the movies. 4 videos in fun styles to recap the legacy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmmark Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 One Cut of the Dead Absolutely fantastic little film that I can’t say anything about. It’s so expertly crafted and funny. Believe the hype. Don’t watch a trailer though it completely spoils it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spatular Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 ^ yeah it's brilliant got to stick with it. Not sure what Nag is on about with HDR, loads of films/tv have it, is it the first time you're watching something with HDR? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 @Nagwatch how you speak to people please I watched X-men Dark Phoenix. It's not as bad as I'd heard but it's not good either, better than Apocalypse at least. There's just no point to it, it goes exactly where you'd expect, every line sounds like you've heard it before. It does that thing too where lifelong friends turn against each other because of one mistake Much better is John Wick 3, which is way better than I expected it to be. The 2nd isn't terrible but it felt like the series was going to lose its way, now I'm looking forward to the next one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCH Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Exactly what I thought of Dark Phoenix. A text book example of a 'middle of the road' film. EDIT: Interesting.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Well, that was better than all of Fallen Kingdom anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmmark Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 They acted like there was a fight between two drunks outside. That’s the problem with JW, there’s no horror to any of and no one ever seems to care. None of them have done a good job to show any kind of sense of scale either. Anyway I’m off to buy a tiny crossbow in case any gigantic monsters attack later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCH Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I do think the Horror angle is where the first one is still better than all the sequels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 @wiivo 2.0 this does a good job of breaking down why the original Jurassic Park is so much better than anything that followed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmark Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 The sequels are all about stuff happening without ever thinking about how the stuff happening should look. Just amped up each time so it becomes noisier and visually more of a mess. The one good thing of that big rock short is the found footage angle at the end but even that had the old fish eats fish eating fish trope.

mfnick Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I just watched John Wick 3. HOLY FUCK!! What a amazing film, I loved it from beginning to end. Some of the best scenes ever put to film. This series is up there with the best for me, not many manage 3 top quality instalments. Usually have at least 1 stinker. Enjoyed the Matrix reference too, nicely done 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyKurosaki Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Just watched John Wick 3 myself. I concur with the “HOLY FUCK” verdict. It was fan-bloody-tastic from start to finish. One awesome action sequence after another. Glorious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmark Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Oh I watched it too last night. Incredible action. Probably the best of the series. A little disappointed Spoiler That’s there’s going to be a 4th 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyKurosaki Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Yeah, that’s a fair point. Spoiler We’ve had 3 great films. They may be pushing their luck with a 4th. We shall see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Yeah, John Wick 3 is pretty good. Liked it less than the other two though. I also watched Arrival again. It really is a modern classic. Nothing more to say about it. Also watched Booksmart which is an adorable teen comedy/drama which fucks with some tropes and remains totally real. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Finally, I got round to Spider-Man: Far from Home. I enjoyed it more than expected despite being a bit so-so about the first Marvel Spider-Man film. I like what they're setting up with him having to deal with Iron Man's baggage as well as his influence. Its an interesting continuation. But as a film it seems like just a better version of the first film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfnick Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Re John Wick 3 Spoiler Agreed. I was hoping this would be it and go out on a big high. It’s a bit worrying, not sure how long they can keep doing it and I really don’t want them to dilute the series and bring it down. However I do think there might be enough there to make 1 more epic push against the High Table and bring it down. They need to end it on that though IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmark Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Spoiler I actually thought they might just be setting up the upcoming tv show until I googled it. It will sully the franchise if 4 is a bit crap but that’s these things go I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
