I had heard a little about that in the past, but just read the wikipedia page... jesus.

@eddy: This seems right up your alley.

[Dickie Dunn]

Dude that should be up everyone's alley.

"Thou shall not fall..."

[NTP66]

Also true...

Finally sat down and watched No Time To Die yesterday. It was good. Definitely much better than Spectre for sure. I'm kind of over the movies being so long though.

My dad apparently hasn't seen any of the prior Daniel Craig movies so I had to explain a bunch of back story for him... Bond usually hasn't required that in the past. Maybe some callbacks here and there, but you could pick up any movie and just turn your brain off and have fun.

None of the movies ever got close to Casio Royale, but at least the DC Era ended on a good movie.

I don't think I know a single horse. I know one owl, but it is not Superb.

I have most of those on 4k and I'll still probably buy that for the posters.

Jurassic World: Again.
It wasn't as terrible as I thought it was going to be based on the reviews in here. But they really could have done it a service by deleting about a half hour of run time. This would easily be done by:

Cutting the whole side trip to Malta.
Aside from saving the baby raptor at the end, Pratt and Howard served no function for the entire middle of the movie. Their roles could have been reduced to cameos and gave more room for the Jurassic Park returning characters to breathe.

At least this one had something new, dinosaurs running around globally. That said, there were a few moments where it was giving a Godzilla franchise vibe, and I don't mean that in a flattering way.

Either way, please be done. I know they can do dinos in space or whatever but, just, don't.

I didn’t think these ones were available in 4k before this set?

Same here (Robin Hood). I'm surprised.

Oops didn't notice those were the later ones lol. You are right they didn't.

[nocera]

Yeah these are the exceptionally shitty ones (well except H2O)

I'll still probably buy them sadly haha.

Agree with everything you spoilered, and especially the last sentence - which pains me to even say.

Star Trek 09 is a ton of fun.

$90m on this just to shelve it.

What the hell? That was going to be Keaton's big return.

Watched some really good movies for family movie night: Predator, Point Break and Major League. Definitely had some moments thinking maybe they aren't the best family movies, but what are you going to do. Kids loved each one and have been nonstop asking about predator 2 next. There's a pretty wild sex scene that's going to cause some delay, but Prey should be good to go this weekend.

My wife and I watched The Lost City last weekend... and I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.
