Quote from: Black Shepherd Carnage on March 21, 2025, 09:12:34 AMHerself said she was too sick of him in real life to watch it, but she was out last night so I took the opportunity to throw on The Apprentice. It's pretty good! Jeremy Strong in particular plays a blinder, Sebastian Stan too but he's too good-looking to make a believable Trump  :laugh:

You should check out Where's My Roy Cohn. It's a great doc. Cohn was such a horrible piece of shit.

Cool, will make a note, cheers.

I watched "The Platform" last night. I thought it was pretty good, except I wasn't mad on the ending. I think I liked the premise more than the film. Still, worth a watch

The ending annoyed me as well but still thought it wasn't a bad hour to put down.

Yet to watch that, there's a sequel too.

Saw that there was a sequel but didn't go near it. Think one was plenty for the premise

Rewatched "Full Metal Jacket" on on Netflix recently. An absolute classic.

The next time someone talks about Netflix censoring anything for "the woke snowflake bandwagon crowd" you can site some scripture from Gunnery Sergeant Hartman.

Rewatched Adaptation for first time in about 20 years. Quality movie, and def one of Nicolas Cage's best performances.

Leaving Las Vegas is the benchmark for Cage

one of my favorite movies that. For all the stick Gage gets, he can deliver the goods when he wants.

Watched The Substance last night. Fucking hell. Absolutely mental. I'll never watch it again though.

It's very good, but shaving about 20 mins off the running time would have helped it. Watched the making of recently and it's worth checking out.

Watched The Last Voyage Of The Demeter last night. Passed the time but not much to it really, particularly when you already know how it ends. The usual telegraphed jumpscares too. Nice to see a few Irish actors getting screentime though.

It's a great premise and a decent watch, shame they went for more CGI in the post production.

Yeah, and revealing the creature so early took a lot of tension out of it too.

It was wrecking my head where I knew the woman from, turns out she was the teenage babysitter with the crush on Spector in The Fall.
