What have you seen recently? 3

[Catch-up]

We finally watched Finding Dory. Not nearly as good as Finding Nemo, but still gave us a couple of giggles and was worth watching.

I went with a girlfriend to see La La Land. I kind of bigged it up to her as she doesn't watch musicals as a rule, (come to that, neither do I). Well, I say 'bigged' it up, I made several comments about Ryan Gosling and him dancing. I forget what it's actually about right this minute, something along the lines of boy-being meets girl-being beneath silvery moon, which then explodes for no adequately explored reason. Not really

Also binge watched S2 Penny Dreadful. In my defense we're in a heat wave right now and it's a cracking bit of telly.

To get over the trauma and angst of my PC problems I went to see Underworld: Blood Wars just what I needed to lose myself in, the film was Ok worth seeing if you like these type of films, lots shooting, sword fights Vampires against Werewolves just go with the flow and take the film for what it is a bit of mindless escapism.

 

[SpideyGirl]

I went to see Rogue one yesterday it was quite good, surprising ending.

Yes wasn't it!

 

[Sister Jennifer]

I tried watching some of the latest Sherlock Holmes but I can't get into it.

I watched The Witch last night. This one I really enjoyed. A very good movie.

 

[Sister Jennifer]

I watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit? It's been years since I last saw it, still really good

 

[Sister Jennifer]

I watched the 1959 version of On The Beach, was really good.

I watched the 1959 version of On The Beach, was really good.

I have that on DVD - one of my favourites. The book is great, also.

You have fantastic taste, it's one of my favourite books as well. I'm a sucker for end of world/ post apocalyptic/ dystopian novels and for some inexplicable reason didn't know about that movie. Subject matter very grim but enjoyment level at watching it very high.

 

[Tonyblack]

Watch out for the bird in the scene where they go to America.

 

[Quatermass]

While I haven't actually watched the series in earnest, my mother has been recently watching Black Sails, and the opening titles have catapulted themselves into my Top 5 already...

 

[Tonyblack]

I actually got to watch Rogue One this morning. I didn't see it in the cinema and I've been waiting for it to come out on DVD. But I was looking through Facebook and someone had posted the whole movie on there. It was quite good. I think I'll have to watch it again as there were so many new characters that I need to take some time with it.

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

I went to see Guardians of the Galaxy II today I thought was really good with a good soundtrack, and a few laugh out loud moments. :dance:

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

I went to see Wonder Woman today I thought it was really good and certainly lived up to the hype.

 

[Sister Jennifer]

I would like to see Wonder Woman while it's on the big screen.

I saw the latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie. It was ok. It says it's the final movie and I think it should be. Javier Bardem's character was excellent though.

Better still, I've been watching Ripping Yarns on YouTube. They're brilliant.

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

That's the next one I want to see, Aaaarh me arties :|

 

[Sister Jennifer]

Well shiver me timbers. I hope you enjoy it.

I watched Suicide Squad. Well, I say watched, luckily I'd had a couple of wines to dull the senses. It certainly deserved the criticism. Everyone involved should be ashamed of themselves.

I've also rewatched The Revenant which is bloody awesome.

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

I thought Suicide Squad was quite funny, very tongue in cheek which did not take itself too seriously.

 

[Sister Jennifer]

There was a lot of cheek. Butt cheek.

Ah well, horses for courses.

I'm watching a Netflix doco called The Keepers. Harrowing. Also watched Dr Who & Centurion which was quite good.

 

[Quatermass]

Just watched John Wick for the first time. Brilliant movie, and probably one of the few non-Bond pure action films I like.
