It is slow to start, but the last 45mins is some of my favourite cinema of the past decade!

Can't wait for Avengers: Age of Ultron next year :dance:

 

[Quatermass]

Watched Guardians of the Galaxy. Second only to The Avengers in the Marvel films line-up. Not particularly deep and meaningful, but still pretty much pure distilled entertainment. Plus, as I said elsewhere, it has Zoe Saldana as a green-skinned space babe, Karen Gillian as a blue, bald cyborg, Vin Diesel as a tree...and a talking raccoon who is overly fond of fully automatic weaponry.

 

[DaveC]

I really hope I can make it to the cinema to see that...

 

[BobtheDrog]

Guardians of the Galaxy was amazing! Very, very funny. Slightly ruined by an idiot at the back of the cinema yelling out plot points as they were about to happen towards the end

 

[Sister Jennifer]

S1 Dirk Gently, very good.

 

[Bouncy Castle]

Just read today that the Americans have bought the rights to make Dirk.

 

[Ghost]

oh god no

 

[The Mad Collector]

Well that's that wrecked then

 

[Tonyblack]

S1 Dirk Gently, very good.

I actually think the TV series is better than the books.

Went to see transformers 4 with my dad last night, really shouldn't have gotten my hopes up after Michael Bay's last 3 abominations of attempts at transformers films. At least he's consistent, in a consistently ruining Transformers kind of way!!! No consideration for the fans or original storylines really, but hey, as long as there's flash cars, even flasher car chase scenes, and massive explosions, that's what makes a great movie right? Storyline's irrelevant, right? Wrong Mr. Bay, DEAD wrong!!

Bay ruining childhoods one film at a time

 

[Tonyblack]

I see he's got his hands on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as well.

 

[Discworldpadawan]

The new Turtles film is him as well is it? Blast! I saw the trailer for it in the cinema last night and as reboot's go it looked promising, but now that you've said Bay's doing that one too, my hopes are dashed!! Ah well. I hope J.J. Abrahams does the new star wars some sort of justice at least. Cant do any worse than Lucas's attempt at episode 1 anyway! still see Jar Jar Binks in my nightmares, Shudder!!!

 

[Ghost]

you do know that would make Princess Leia the latest Disney Princess

 

[Discworldpadawan]

Yeah, sadly I do Ghost :| Damn Disney and their ever encroaching tentacles of greed! Marvel, star wars, they want to own all the big franchises. Bit ironic really, that the big company they portray in Wall.E, the one that eventually owns EVERYTHING on the planet and wrecks it, it is the very thing Disney is becoming :|

S1 Dirk Gently, very good.

I think you're on to something there, great stories and Steve Mangan is the business. But I love, love, love The Long Dark Tea-Time Of The Soul.

Love it.

I loved that one too Jen! I'll have to re-read it. It's been a long time.

 

[Sister Jennifer]

Do it!

Saw Guardians of the Galaxy. I laughed, I cried... Wow!

Mrs Doubtfire. Many belly laughs, a few tears and shed-loads of love. RIP Robin.
