Got halfway through Crimes of the Future last night but had to put it on hold as the young lads were still up. Interesting so far though

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Glass Onion had a fairly unbearable opening 15 minutes or so. Overall, it referenced itself far too much in today's "real" world, belying lack of ambition to make a classic caper that may be able stand the test of time, BUT the actual detective-ing part of it all was good. A good crime caper, as Jamie put it. Yeah, very like a modern, big budget, feature-length episode of some classic TV detective show.

I watched the extended edition of The Return Of The King last night. I normally wouldn't be able to watch something that long but it was deadly.
Forgot how good those films are.
The effects are still really good too.

Ya the extended editions are really good. All 3 are good but the first one is the best imo. A spectacular setup of a film.

I've only watched the extended version of Rotk.
I must watch the first one actually as that is my favourite one in the series.

as it says in every mail in your spam folder: once you go extended, you never go back.

I watched the three extended versions one after another one day. I wouldn't do it again like that. Great flicks but one a day would do. Toss up for me between the first and second ones they're both great

Rob Zombie's Halloween flicks popped up on Netflix recently.
Hadn't seen either before so gave them a lash. First one was OK.
Second one was a terrible waste of time. Serious drop in quality, altogether.

Hard rain with Morgan Freeman and Christian Slater last night.
Bloody ridiculous film altogether.

[Eoin McLove]

It's no Chubby Rain.

[The Butcher]

The Banshees of Inisherin - Great cinematography and acting, sure the story isn't exactly there but still I found it overall a compelling watch but honestly don't know if it will get any a repeat watch anytime soon.

Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio - Much better than the Disney rehash abomination but felt it fell below my expectations...loved all the stop motion and imagination of it all.

The Polar Express - Watched it at Christmas for the first time and probably last time...uncanny valley with those dead eyes  
The Muppet Christmas Carol - First time watching it since I was a kid - Still holds up well - Michael Caine does such a terrific job as Scrooge.

Well deserved wins for Farrell and McDonagh (best screenplay) at the Golden Globes last night. Already had Târ (Cate Blanchett, best actress) and Argentina, 1985 (best foreign language) lined up to watch, must get on to them.

[Don Gately]

The Polar Express is a Christmas tradition in our house every year. It is a strange enough movie at times but overall it gets there.

[Pentagrimes]

Hoping to see Enys Man today, new film from the guy who made Bait.

[open face surgery]

Haven't seen Bait but have been waiting on Enys Men since the trailer was released. Will go in the next couple of days.
