Not fat gutted. Hirsuteness of shoulders TBD.
I watched a good docu on Mary Millington last night. For those of a certain age this a must-see. Phwoaarrr!
Ah right. Thank youIt is. There's a post credit scene with Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark.
I thought it was a very good movie. Probably not one I'd watch again though for a long time.Straight Outta Compton
Really enjoyed that. The bloke doing Ice Cube was very good. I have ordered AmeriKKKas most Wanted and The Predator from Amazon.

Old. Shit.

You must never have seen The Invention of lying. I didn't make it halfway through. Horribly unfunny.Special Correspondents
Netflix Original movie with Eric Bana and Ricky Gervais as a radio news reporter and his engineer who pretend they are reporting from war-torn Ecuador when they are in fact holed up in a (New York?) apartment.
I was shocked when the end credits announced: 'Written & Directed by Ricky Gervais' - wow, what has happened to this guy? The film wasn't completely terrible, but just really bad. Nowhere near funny enough for a comedy, one-dimensional characters (especially the supporting female characters), complete lack of chemistry between the two leads.
Gervais must be surrounded by sycophants, because how did no one pull him aside and say "You know this film you're making is shit, right?"

He needs Stephen Merchant.
It's Ice Cube jr
A lot. Definately.I did wonder with Dre and cube being producers how much they whitewashed themselves in the film.
Such racism!Really! I thought the likeness was striking.

Kelly's Heroes?Can someone help me out.
There's a war movie that quite a few people recommended on here, but I can't remember the name of it (and it's buried somewhere in 775 pages now).
I think it might be Russian. Meant to be quite harrowing.

Midnight Special
Err yeah. Not sure what I watched here. Or even if I liked it. Certainly grabbed me by the jaffers in the first 20 minutes as I had no idea what it was about or even what genre it was. Bearing in mind that I now know it's from the same guy that directed 'Take Shelter' and 'Mud' then I'd say imagine if that guy was let loose on a sci fi film. Bobs your uncle.
Come and see
I quite liked it too. You can't go wrong with Michael Shannon generally but I love the feel of Nichols' movies. Take Shelter has got to be my favourite and Shannon is amazing in it.Really enjoyed Midnight Special, was casted perfectly I thought. I'm becoming a bit of a Jeff Nichols and Michael Shannon fan tbh
We wanted to watch a classic, it's one of the few big ones I've not seen.That's a great movie!

Only reason to watch that is for the aforementioned actress.Horror has a film called Captivity with Elisha Cuthbert in tonight. Reviews say it is nasty in tone, but only got, er, 9% on rotten tomatoes.
Has anyone seen it? @pauldyson1uk @Dirty Schwein
Was what I was thinking. Just read the imdb parental guide though and apparently she doesn't get 'em outOnly reason to watch that is for the aforementioned actress.
Shit movie. Elisha Cuthbert

I think that was both Gervais and Merchant creative peak(Extra being at the tail end), if you look at what they were doing back then - The Office and at the same time the XFM radio with Pilkington(Lots of the stuff from the XFM shows is used in the Office). That's a good couple of years of pure gold, the XFM shows are just the best, I've easily re listen to each series a good 6 or 7 times and as you said the Office is almost completely flawless(Watched the box set not to long go)Pretty much everything post-Extras isn't all that really. Shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. The Office film will likely be the same, something I'm in no rush to see, whereas I would of been all over it since I consider it an almost flawless 14 episode run.
Yep, the lack of EC being nude made the decision. Not sure I've seen that low a score on rotten tomatoes before tbh.Avoid. It's shit
