That's nothing. They're rebooting The Equaliser with Queen Latifah starring.

When they both tank it will be blamed on "the patriarchy".

Results of this could be excellent. The two they've already done together are quality, so a return to Cronenberg's roots with Viggo in tow...nice!

Unreal! Big fan of both. Thought Cronenberg was done with horror, but his son put out a good flick recently so might have the itch again. Big Viggo fan too.

Weekend watches:
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Lawless
Hereditary

So, a classic with no comment needed. Lawless, I'm not sure how I never heard of it - true story of bootleggers in the 30s, script by Nick Cave, solid iron cast. The cinematography is amazing, but the film lacks a bit in narrative tension, similar to Public Enemy No.1 actually, although it's better than that.

Hereditary was fantastically silly, has to be said. Been meaning to watch it since it came out, because everyone was talking about it. Was expecting something much darker, but I did find it highly entertaining nonetheless.

Watched There Will Be Blood last night, followed by Taxi Driver.

Not a bad evening's viewing

Finally got round to watching IT part 2 last night despite having the double box set from nearly a year a go.
Really enjoyed it, very impressed that the grown up cast so resemble the kids.

Perhaps two of the greatest character study films ever made?

Watched this Turkish movie on youtube the other night which was pretty funny if yis don't mind subtitled movies, crime/comedy sort of film.

Certainly right up there. I'd forgotten how good There Will Be Blood is.

Watched it a few weeks back and I've had DDL's voice saying 'I'm an oil man' stuck in my head since. Great film though.

[Eoin McLove]

Such a fucking rubbish film, excluding the brilliant opening scene. A case study in over acting. I hated it.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

That Deadpool can get an 8 on imdb genuinely is symptomatic of all that is wrong with the world today.

There Will Be Blood blew me away at the time. I haven't watched it since, I must dig the DVD out. I was quite underwhelmed by Taxi Driver though. All the ingredients were there but it just did very little for me.

[astfgyl]

Taxi Driver isn't worth the hype it has gotten over the years but is still a very good film. Seen There Will Be Blood 3 or 4 times, it has improved each time. I didn't think much of it the first try though.

Watched The Oath this evening. I enjoyed the idea of it more than the actual film but it was worth the watch

[Ollkiller]

Aye not mad on Taxi Driver at all. Loved There will be Blood but won't watch it again. The once was enough for me.

I know what you mean there, I'd probably stick it on again, but definitely a big one to throw on frequently.
