Stan & Ollie

Nice Music Box reference at the end. Honestly not sure how I feel about this film even though I am a big fan of Stan and Ollie. I will probably watch it at some point just to see what it is like. Big Steve Coogan fan as well so hopefully he does the role some justice.

The film could be terrible, but it won’t lessen the geniuses that were the real Stan and Ollie. Everyone knows how amazing they were.

It's looking good so far.

Many pinches of salt required, but I'm being hopeful.

Off to an Odeon Screen Unseen tomorrow evening and even though I know it won’t be this, it’s release is too far ahead, I am still hoping it is.

It's out on Friday. They were both on the One Show tonight. First 18 minutes

91% on Rotten Tomatoes, that's good enough for me.
Can't believe how much they both resemble Laurel & Hardy, particularly Steve Coogan. Amazing.

Wouldn't say Coogan does that much but Reilly definitely. Looking forward to this.

Reminds me that I really need to get this picture re-framed and hung on the wall:

This hadn't really grabbed my interest tbh, I was more a Harold Lloyd fan

, but if the reviews stay positive i'll definitely go give it a watch.

Well worth seeing, I throughly enjoyed it.

Didn't realise his son died 3 months after he did. 40 years old =/

Looking forward to seeing this . Was an avid fan of their films in B&W. My grandad had a whole collection of them I used to love watching them as a kid.

just home from it, dam good film

Feek · 22 Jan 2019 at 21:20

Saw this at Bluewater today on my way home from work and really enjoyed it. In fact, the time passed so quickly that I thought it was only an hour long! It's made me want to watch old Laurel & Hardy films.
