Watched Mad Max 2 with my missus and 15 year old son on the weekend. The 15 year old left half way through saying it was pretty poor. Must admit the acting and plot and pretty horrible, but there are still some decent moments in there. Overall it hasn't aged too well though.

Bloody modern day kids eh?
By the the time they're 15 they're jaded and worn out by eye candy special effects horror and pornography.
No wonder they get excited by stupid internet fads like planking and Charlie Charlie.

Yeah old people are much better and smarter etc.

Got around to watching The Babadook yesterday, was very good. An extremely unique take on a genre that too often is just a collection of sights and sounds designed to shock the viewer. This one had so much more to it. Thought is was fantastic.

I watched fast & furious 7, somewhat disappointing.

Agree. Brilliant horror flick. Anyone seen It Follows btw?

IBL

Yeah, was so so, not a patch on Babadook.

Watched a few films recently.
I liked Kingsman. Proper English, stiff upper lip movie. Lot more enjoyable than the last few Bond movies I have watched. Would in that context like to point out that I haven't watched the last two, I think, Bond movies. I also happen to have a soft spot for Samuel Jackson.

Maze runner. Realized it was a teen movie when starting to watch it. Decided to stick with it anyway. I like it! The ending makes me want to see part 2 as well. 🙂

Interstellar. Really good movie IMO. Time travel is tricky, but I like their concept and how they pulled it off. Some holes in it, but good flick nonetheless.

Ex Machina. Was alright, but that's it.

Rex

Babadook next, on recommendations from you guys. 🙂

GaelForce

Big summer of films for you Rucks? Enjoy! :p

'Kingsman: The Secret Service' and 'Ex Machina' are by far the best movies i have seen recently.

Rex

On sick leave for 6 weeks and on crutches. What's a guy gonna do, eh? 🙂

GaelForce

I'm genuinely jealous.

Just try to limit your 'arguing with Biggus' time so you don't completely waste it!

Saw Jurassic World last night. Much fun.

Sounds sweet 😆

Rex

Yeah, not that sweet. Had 6 holes drilled into my femur and tibia two days ago. Hurts a bit...

Pepe LeFrits

Wimp.

Same here. Very enjoyable in very two different ways.

If I'd 6 weeks on my bum is devote myself to Witcher 3 and Elder Scrolls Online.

Rex

I'm going to make a real effort on FIFA. At least that was the plan. Lose interest after a few games though. I'm getting old. 🙁
