The snowman is the most boring Christmas crap on TV.

IMO so overrated, I'm sure this bear hunt thing will be similarly awful.

Spacey and Vaughen (who shows huge acting depth in this) dream team with a dash of Elizabeth Babks and Rachel Weisz in for good measure.

Yep never got the Snowman: boy builds snowman, flies around a bit with it, sings some stupid song, then it warms up and it melts. WGAF.

Surprised no one else has posted about it here in the last few days, but saw Rogue One on Friday. Really enjoyed, nice to see a war Star Wars movie with a bit more darker theme. Glad to see it's doing well. Personally I'm not the most excited for the Han Solo spin-off, but this was really great.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Prob becuase it's hard to talk about it properly without spoiler tags.

It was good but the first 2/3rds of the films pacing was all over the place but the last 20 or so minutes where prob the best in the entire Star Wars universe.

Don't particularly rate jones delivery of some lines, but I would say this film is second on my Star Wars last of best films IMO.

Han Solo spin off sounds awful but it has good writers on board.

I hope they don't make him a hero becuase he wasn't a hero before New Hope that was the whole point of his change of heart meaning something.

TBH I wish they would do more films like rogue one.

This will be the blurb of your intervention.

In Bruges knock off the Christmas watch list.

Farrell knocking it out of the park with Gleeson being his usual top self.

Only handful of films left now before the 25th.

Aye, got the two towers out of the way, my unpopular opinion is that its the best lotr film. Need to get Goodfellas in and I'll be reasonably happy.

But it is IMO TBH I thought that was the popular view.
TT
First half of TRK
FotR
Second half of TRK.

Rohan = Boss.

Also Goodfellas ----> Every other mob film made.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Yeah, I thought it was pretty well accepted that TT was the best?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Helms deep is prob the best battle feature in any film IMO.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Really? Never looked it up on forums or anything I'm just generally ridiculed in conversations with friends for thinking it!

You've just peaked with those last two posts Tigs. Congrats!

Wonderful film. I'd never realised Colin Farrell could be so entertaining.

 

[ncurd]

Yup TT is generally considered the best part of the film l. Reality us it should only watched a whole which is why RotK is poor in its own, it can only be considered as the end to a 12 hour film not a 4 hour one (extended versions are all that should ever be watched now).

Anyone know where I can find that Richie Mccaw film?

Still waiting for it in the UK, but apparently they're having trouble releasing it....
