A little disappointed to see the lukewarm responses here to The Jungle Book. I really enjoyed it, although I did go in with low expectations given I'm a huge fan of the cartoon. It was original enough to provide a new and refreshing interpretation of the story and it looked beautiful. Saw it in 2D, don't regret it as I'm not a huge fan of 3D.
8/10.

There's a word in your second sentence that you don't need. Arguably two.

Other than Shrek and Madagascar I can't think of any other animated Trilogies.
How to Train Your Dragon 3 is due to be released in 2018 though

Oh goodness yes!
Many a dream was had.

Clue: the first word to remove is animated.

I'm somewhere in the middle of you two... maybe just an 8/10. I wished we'd seen it in 3D and look forward to the 3D Blu ray.
Oh good greif yes
Oh, and last night Mitty. We watched it on holiday with a tiny (15") TV on DVD, so bought it again on blu and watched it properly. I love this film, its a real joy and it looks superb... 9/10

Guessed that, just couldn't think of any other animated trilogies although I've now remembered Kung Fu Panda 3 was released last month.
Ah, ok, I see. Yes, the best animated trilogy would be a fairly low bar to clear.

Daddy's Home
Will Ferrell, still not funny.
3/10

I think the only funny thing I've ever seen him in is the SNL Don't Fear The Reaper sketch, and even then you could argue that Walken is doing all the hard work.
The SNL Roxbury Guys sketch is my favourite, but even that is carried by Jim Carrey. Funny despite Will Ferrell, not because of him!
I tried to watch Anchorman 2 the other day and I got about 15 minutes in. I thought it was painful tbh.
I quite enjoyed Get Hard. I thought he was pretty funny in that.
The Peanuts Movie with my daughter, she enjoyed it, I wasn't paying too much attention.
Followed by Predestination. Enjoyable but a bit of an odd movie. Thought I had it sussed quite early on, then my brain started to ache thinking about the order of events. I like it when time travel movies do that.

Beverly Hills Cop (1984) 8/10
Never did actually see this movie all the way through,So thought id watch it last night.
It was weird seeing Jonathan banks with hair
Especially after watching Breaking bad/Better call Saul.
Love the old films from 1980-90s theres just something about them that you dont feel in new films,for me anyway.

I Gotta Fever... and the only antidote is... I Gotta Have More Cow Bell!
Seriously anybody could have done the Farrell part.. the really funny bit was and will always be Walken.
What is good is the way that Disney have modelled King Luey on Walken's facial expression.. really is something you'd expect out of Godfather.. or Chimpfather
Even the singing is dripping with it..
The ant eater in the credits of Jungle Book is funnier than any Farrell ..
Yeah, I think you could loose yourself watch in that.. you think - nah it's going to be boring american settlers film.. but the way it's told/acting/photography/sound etc is great.
