Really not a fan of Ben Stiller, but gave Tropic Thunder a go after reviews from places I normally trust adn it is very very good. Maybe not as clever as some reviewers were making out (it is Ben Stiller after all) and yeah Stiller and Black are annoying but they're meant to be. Worth seeing for Robert Downey Jr's perfomance and Tom Cruise willingly and seemingly happily making an absolute tit of himself. It makes you cringe like you've never cringed before, but again its supposed to and, as over used as this phrase is, fair play to him.

Steve Coogan, also excellent.

And his exit is even better.

I watched The Strangers last night. I f**kin loved it. Dunno if its been discussed already, but the tension was awesome. It was creepy as hell for a good hour. The ending was a little bit of an anticlimax IMHO, but I can forgive it that for the fact that the good hour was so good.

major spoiler here.

Liv Tyler - "Why are you doing this?"

The Strangers "Because you were (at) home"

Watched Wolf Creek last night after several recommendations from friends. Utter, utter shite IMHO.

trapped by a psycho killer, you manage to get a car- what should you do? 1) drive away or 2) push the c**t over a cliff?

you wake up, hog tied in a shed - its sunny, you climb out of the window - its dark again

you shoot a psycho killer in the neck, he drops like a sack of shit do you 1) make sure he's really dead 2)tie him up in case he isnt dead, but you dont have the stomach to finish him off or 3) hit him weakly twice with a rifle and leave him there

there are about a dozen cars in a shed, you manage to get one started - guess which one has a killer on the back seat? - bingo!

    • Looks like someone already has  Clashfinder :: All Points East 2026 Clashfinder
    • Well worth watching and the 2 Punisher series can be viewed alone, season 1 being the better one but both pretty good.   Bernthal's Frank Castle first showed up in Daredevil in a couple of episodes before the standalone Netflix Punisher series then popped up again in Daredevil: Born Again before this years One Last Kill and Spider-Man. To be honest all those old Marvel Netflix shows from the Defenders universe are worth a watch. I recently went through them all in order and really enjoyed.

    • Hello eFestivals.   Some of you may remember a vehement poster of these parts who posted by the name of @Mash011 mainly in the 2010s.   Unfortunately he sadly passed away a couple of years back but today would have been his birthday and I think it’s only right that his old friends from the forum pay tribute to him (I’m his brother and I know he didn’t have many friends outside of this place).   Please join me in wishing a happy birthday to deadly departed beloved ex-poster @Mash011.   Happy birthday!
