I thought they were "alright"
but I am not a huge stars wars fan so it'd be hard to upset me with a star wars movie
What film did you watch last night?

I just watched World War Z. Unbelievably terrible film that bears no relation to the book, other than sharing the title.
Yes.
7 was ok,8 was the worst film I have ever or will ever watch and 9 was an attempt to get back on track but the damage was done and resulted in a poor film

I thought 7 was excellent, 8 was a masterpiece, and 9 was okay but disappointing after TLJ was so very good. Overall they did pretty well with audiences, especially 7 and 8, and they all box-officed over a billion. So, no, you weren't the only person in the world; they're actually pretty widely liked movies, but they attract an enormous amount of "fan" hate.

I recommended this to a colleague a few years ago having at the time recently watched it. So he bought the DVD for a couple of quid and said he and his wife didn't laugh once. Bloody millennials, humourless so and so's.
Just seen Zulu in HD, Puts to shame a lot of modern cinema the 4k is going to blow actual minds. The camerawork is incredible its so static and smooth. Someone on here said about the cut cut cut camerawork these days and spot on fella.
Its shameful what is accepted these days, CGI cartoons also like Avengers are idealized and here is a film with no computers and you gotta wonder what happened to the film schools since then?

Truly was Guy Ritchie back on form loved that one also, one of the stand out recent films to me.
Pretty much feel the same. TLJ was by far the best of the 3.
I also don’t hold the original series in particularly high regard.... there is only one which is actually really, really good (ESB). The very first is good and ROTJ is watchable at best.

It was guff, non-canon guff, it might have been a decent enough film on its own, with stunning visuals, but it simply wasn't a star wars movie within the set universe. It wasn't even close.
That's what makes it the worst of the films.

Venom
Another fun Marvel supers film. Introduction was overly long, but otherwise it clipped along at a decent pace. Funny in places too. But I doubt I'll remember it in six months time, these are excellently produced popcorn movies.
Watchable and forgettable 8/10

If you perpetually judge it (or anything!) against your preconceived notion of what it should be, you’re going to have a bad time.
You’ll have so much more fun if you take it for what it actually is.

Not really anything to do with Marvel (or the MCU)
Sony Studios using a Marvel character (as Sony still own the rights to Spider-man and his friends/enemies)
.... a little strong?

It has a Marvel logo playing during the opening credits, and uses Marvel characters so, yeah, quite a bit to do with Marvel
Although I wasn't paying much attention and had forgotten it was from a different studio. It doesn't really change my views, but I would have expressed surprise at it being good if I'd realised it was from Sony.

Are You Being Served? the movie
A true classic
A true classic
An ex took me to her sisters and husband for dinner and asked me to bring a movie (Blockbuster days!) Last minute Saturday night, not much choice, but i grabbed this:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111127/
I'd seen it before and there were a few funny moments, but definitely background movie so we could chat etc. There is also an hilarious scene with a dog (at least in my youth it was hilarious).
However, everyone decided just to watch the movie, not talk, from beginning to end with not one single laugh - longest, most awkward movie ever seen as i had chosen it
The Dark (2018) on Prime.
I enjoyed this, its kind of a zombie flick, with a difference, or a dark fairy tale, or a tale of redemption. Cant say too much without spoiling it. Enjoyed it though and its one of those movies which left me analysing it and wondering about it.
7/10

I was left wondering if she really was a zombie who returned to living humanity or whether she never actually died, survived the brutal attack and was overcome with dark revenge and survived wild in the woods and slowly healed her terrible injuries over time

A fascinating look into the final night of a las vegas dive bar full of the patrons you'd expect of such an establishment.
