I had the misfortune of watching Thor last night. I was greatly disturbed over the fact that I had paid to watch it but more disturbed that some poor suspecting people had said to get in the cinema. All the way through I was expecting someone to shove their arm in the air and shout "By the power of Greyskull".

Arthur Christmas sounds great - Peter Baynham is responsible (Brass Eye, Alan Partridge etc) and it's all about the corporate corruption of Christmas, and Aardman (Wallace and Gromit) are in charge of animation.

Sounds like a quality Christmas film.

Watched Loach's 'Land and Freedom' a couple of nights ago for the first time - a great film, just goes to show what a messed up world we're in and how the left side political spectrum is so wide sometimes those doing the right thing can't - when socialists get stuffed by communists.

over the weekend we watched warrior http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1291584/ which is the single most overrated movie on the imdb as far as I'm concerned. It has 8.3/10 ffs. all I can assume is that just about everyone who rated it on there is a massive mma/ufc fan, with little or no sense about what makes a movie "awesome". Nick Nolte is quite good, but not even a consideration for an oscar, as many of the fanbois appear to believe. It is a cheesefest of the highest order, with the most implausible plot since I dont know what. and to cap it off, apparently the official movie trailer basically gives away the entire plot of the movie all but the very last scene.

we also watched Contagion, which I really enjoyed, and mrs t8y said "well that was shite" as the credits rolled. :scratchhead:

I was meant to see that yesterday but the line for tixs at the cinema was huge so decided to go play pool instead, I still intend to see it at some point though. Most of the reviews keep saying it's a quality film but it fails as a kid's movie.

I think if you hadnt seen rocky, or the karate kid, or any of the those kind of movies, it might be mildly entertaining, but the story is so implausible.

in a nutshell, (there are fewer spoilers in this paragraph than in the trailer)

a 40+ year old physics teacher who was a fighter in his youth, manages to bag an entry into a huge tournament with countless millions of dollars of prize money. there are 16 entrants, and he manages to bag one of the places, fighting against some of the most incredibly scary fighters on the planet.

I wont spoil the ending for you, but you already know the ending.

    • 👍 plus they brought their own screens 📺 either side of the stage.
    • Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha
    • No argument that he’s bigger than ever, I just have no enthusiasm for it.
    • Keep in mind those crowds were full of teenagers. Glasto aint full of teenagers. Theres no way she could demand headline and get it because they got other acts to give the slot to who deserve it with a bigger catalog. Reading/Leeds would headline her cause its still LN.  If the fest was struggling its Other headline. But a 3rd down Pyramid is likely the landing spot. Itll go down like the Camila Cabello performance pretty much.
