I tried watching a stream of it but the audio quality was too bad so I only got the first scene in, which was fairly bleak. Still intrigued enough that I'll probably go see it

Was reading that Blade Runner was released 43 years ago today so I'll most likely watch that this evening

There's a few cinemas around the country showing the final cut over the next month. 

That Wallis Island one is on my watchlist. Tim Key also pops up in Mickey 17, incidentally.

Is the final cut the one where they change, "I want more life, fucker!" to, "I want more life, father!". I'm pretty sure I've seen all the versions but can't remember which is which. If that one is the final cut then I liked it better except for that one change. That was the point where all the menace was starting to go off the rails. I don't think 'father' adds anything.

'Fucker' was for the theatrical releases, 'father' for TV. In the context of the plot, 'father' makes more sense which is why he changed it for the final cut I suppose, but I grew up with 'fucker', anything else seems wrong to me.

Villeneuve announced to direct next Bond.

Fucker or nothing for me as well. Wasn't it sampled by Fear Factory as well as fucker

Yep, on Flesh Hold.

Still very intrigued to see who the next Bond actor will be. Just bring back Pierce and CGI him younger  :laugh:

Can't remember if I even knew Craig was gone but his Bond films ruined it for me with the whole troubled fella thing and I hope they go with a proper Bond character for the next one, whoever the actor is. Think we've done this to as well tbf but it didn't need reinventing the way it did despite Casino Royale being a great flick in its own right

Terrible choice. Needs an action director as opposed to a critical and filmbros darling.


Critical and filmbros darling, perhaps. Master at filming action and suspense, undoubtedly.

Given that he directed Sicario and the two Dunes, I would think his action credentials are well enough established. Either way, the Bond series is fairly stale and it couldn't do any harm.

I went to see it tonight and I feel the exact same way but at the same time it was fairly unexpected, the whole thing. And the ending?? Interesting to say the least
