The Film Thread

All this talk of the Brosnan Bonds reminds me that I went to see Goldeneye, with a load of first year at uni mates, and a lad called Karl Baker declared it to be the best Bond film ever.

Not sure about that (I've always loved From Russia With Love) but the bit in the junkyardy type place was quite eerie as I recall.

4 days left to Prometheus, I hope you're all counting down.

Klaus

Really starting to feel the hype! Unfortunately it'll only be shown in 3D over here so I'm going to skip it for a month or so. I'm heading to Seattle soon anyway. It's bound to be shown in standard, non-retarded film format there.

Think it's going to be underwhelming … the most recent theatrical trailer gave away far too much, and the characters look a bit wan.

It's going to LOOK amazing though.

Klaus

My biggest concern is that Damon Lindelof has co-written the script. I wouldn't trust that guy to tie his own shoelaces.

Burnwinter

You know who really can't make a film?

This guy.

asajoseph

Are you shitting me? He wrote something called 'Karate Raider'. Now that sounds awesome.

Burnwinter

The Grey had the worst screenplay.

Narc, the A-Team and Smokin' Aces were all utter shit as well. He's a guy with a gift for hopelessly fucking up what should be Boy's Own no-brainers. Not cool.

asajoseph

I liked the A Team. Not interested in any of the others though...

Burnwinter

Good Lord, don't tell me we disagree on something! 🙂

asajoseph

Haha - I know of nobody on the entire Internet with whom it is more pleasant to disagree!

I don't know what people were expecting with an A Team reboot - larger than life characters, silly action, and at least one awesome cameo? I was quite surprised I liked it, but actually thought it captured the silliness of the original quite well!

A-Team trailer was luvly jubly. Hearing the theme tune when it came out... goosebumps

Qwiss

I thought the A-Team film was grand. It did what it was supposed to do, explosions, quips, guns, etc

Burnwinter

Saw it on a plane I guess. I thought even The Expendables was better.

Qwiss

The Expendables was good too. What do you expect from these films? Good middle brow fare.

And this is why I avoid spoilers like the plague. Really hope it doesn't dissapoint cause it does looks like a dream.
I'm gonna be like a kid in the cinema.

Different genre but another movie that might be worth spending money on is Snow White and the Huntsman.

😆 Just trying to goad you into revealing what I've long suspected, 'Qs' ... that you're really Dolph Lundgren.

Captain

Think they will do a good job on this.

I'm really excited about this.

I think you need to have another look at who you're conversing with.
