Yeah, but they blame the movie, when it's them making the link. Like when they say 'I can't believe they cast XXXXX, I can only see them as YYYYY now'. Surely that's a you problem, not a casting problem.
What film did you watch last night?

Did you miss the Eternals off the barrel list, or is it just that forgettable?
Oddly I watched it the other week and while it was trash, it didn't spring to mind as an obvious, albeit terrible MCU movie.

I actually quite like Eternals
Though I did only watch it the once.

Dune 2021 on Amazon Prime - 9/10
This was fantastic enough that I was very disappointed when it actually ended. I could have easily watched another hour or two of it. Was not too enamoured with Timothée at the start but he certainly grew on me.

Thanks for the heads up, I'd been meaning to give this another watch and hadn't realized they'd released a 4K remaster.
On the subject of car chases, De Niro has the most hilarious precision driver acting face!

Try the Covenant if you haven't already. Thoroughly enjoyed it myself.
P.S. there are guns in it so it's John Wick with different actors.

you can have 3 hours more in 3 months
Dune is one of the films I really just don't get the hype for, I was just kinda...bored. I liked a few of the characters but for a film/book that's supposedly the pinnacle of sci-fi I found that aspect remarkably bland.
i agree. found it quite forgettable.
Did you see any of the other ones? David Lynch's Dune and the Sci-fi channel's miniseries? I guess I'm a big fan of the Dune stuff, though not reading. I have never read any of these books that make it to big TV shows like Game of Thrones, Wheel of Time, Lord of the Rings, etc.
First half of the recent Dune film was some of the best film world building I’ve seen, if not the best.
The second half shrunk the scale and it became a less compelling ‘personal adventure’. Regretfully, it didn’t really end on a satisfying note… one of those ‘oooo see what happens next!’ endings that I don’t really like.

I've watched the David Lynch one and it was...something alright lol.

Nah, was easily the best film of the year. But I guess you have to have an appreciation for world building and intelligent storytelling
But yeah, if you just want whizz bang superhero action, you might find it boring
