The later seasons aren't much based on events in the book at all the book doesn't really have an ending and Dick never wrote the sequel he intended. Amazon wrote in an ending which I found deeply disappointing.How much does Man In The High Castle follow the book? I read the book earlier this year but wouldn’t have thought it would stretch to multiple seasons!
Just watched the latest final destination, final destination standard film with a good ending
Is it? Worth a watch then?Just finished the first 2 episodes of the new squid game. GUT WRENCHING.
The studio Gibli film at the theatre?! Im gonna check this out.Not film or TV but just got on the train home after seeing My Neighbour Totoro at the theatre.
Absolutely stunning. Would recommend for anyone but if you’ve got kids and want to hook them on theatre take them to this. Only problem being they will probably never see anything this good again.

Yeah, my stepdaughter went and said it was absolutely fabulous.Not film or TV but just got on the train home after seeing My Neighbour Totoro at the theatre.

Stalls O23, excellent view. It's not a huge theatre tbh so you'll get a good view from anywhere. Might be worth just trying for tickets on the day. It's been on a while now so I don't think many performances are total sell outs. I went Saturday afternoon and it was full but not sold out.Got a day of coming up soon so I’m gonna go watch it. What position were your seats in @chiefdave
We are pleased to offer a limited number of £25 day seats, available for each performance located in the Stalls.
These are limited to two per customer and once purchased they are non-exchangeable and non-refundable.
Book online via the LW website only from 10am on the day of the performance.
Yes planning to go and watch that this week. Glad its got a decent review, the trailer made it look really camp compared to the first which was actually quite scary.Watched M3GAN 2.0. I enjoyed it but they’ve really leaned into the camp comedy rather than horror stuff. Was pretty funny in places and looked like everyone involved had a blast. The young dancer who plays MEGAN is incredibly talented, some of the movements are just spot on.

I think I'll make time for it. Need to go and watch the F1 movie too, unless it gets horrible reviews.I wouldn’t say it’ll blow your socks off, but it was a fun couple of hours.
The alpha had a massive length though. Nearly took my eye out from the screen!28 Years Later.
What a disappointment.
I appreciate that this is a completely different film to first two and they`re trying to bring it to a whole new audience, but some of it was just woeful, trying to be too " surreal and clever ".
Jody Comer and Raiph Fiennes were just wasted - turning him into a " nice " tango tanned Colonel Kurtz, I mean WTF
The plot made no sense - the infected starved to death after five months, yet here we have super alpha infected infected running around and fat slow ones crawling around eating worms
The island community added nothing at all to the film, even though it was a very good idea. I`d have been happy of everyone of them had died.
There were a couple of good bits - the causeway chase scene and the petrol scene in particular ( amazing camera work ). Some of the general camera work was excellent too, especially the aerial shots.
One thing I did love and thought it was just so bonkers and leftfield, was Jack O`Connell and his gang of velour tracksuit clad ninjas !!!
I didn`t go in expecting the mad frenetic intensity of the first two, but this was just such a let down.
Yeah, just watched the trailer. Not at all convinced it's going to be any good.I watched 28 Years Later this week. I thought it was alright…haven’t got too much to add to what’s already been said really.
However they showed the trailer for the naked gun, which looks like it’s going to be either greatest or shittest film ever made…Manslaughter/man’s laughter!
ExactlyThe mans laughter gag is a good one but then the way they have them basically explain it ruins it, original Police Squad/Naked Gun they're absolutely firing these out quickfire and trusting the audience.

Jack O'Connell wasn't far off his character in sinners, should have just done a crossover.
Surely they were inspired by a certain sex offender from the BBC?
Airplane and Police Squad etc are ridiculously good at playing it straight. Airplane especially. I’m chuckling to myself thinking about it now…The mans laughter gag is a good one but then the way they have them basically explain it ruins it, original Police Squad/Naked Gun they're absolutely firing these out quickfire and trusting the audience.

“What is it”? Etc etc etc.
It's a weird one.Airplane and Police Squad etc are ridiculously good at playing it straight. Airplane especially. I’m chuckling to myself thinking about it now…

Yeah, the context/time within which we watch comedy definitely changes it, I’d say.It's a weird one.
I saw Airplane at the cinema and everyone in the audience were splitting their sides, myself included. I thought it was the funniest thing I had ever seen.
Fast forward to just a few months ago, one of my stepdaughters said she wanted to watch it, because she had heard people talk of it as one of the best comedies ever made
So, we sat down to watch it, my missus, myself and her two stepdaughters...
And I think I saw them laughing probably 3 times in the whole movie.
They just didn't find it funny and even though I still liked it. I thought it had dated very badly.
Definitely of its time.

Yeah, although Neeson might be cast well in it…given his moody, brooding usual appearances.I remember actually crying the first time I saw the co-pilot in Airplane.
Especially the scene when he flies the plane away at the end.
Don't think it would be as funny with a rewatch though, and not convinced they'll be able to replicate that type of comedy now with this remake
Most Neesom vehicles are in my experience.Yeah, although Neeson might be cast well in it…given his moody, brooding usual appearances.
It’s almost certainly gonna be shite isn’t it.
Yeah, I’d agree with that.Most Neesom vehicles are in my experience.
Watched Airport 1975 the other day, it was on Legend or something, I'd seen it as a kid in the cinema so watched for nostalga. Quite a few moments when I laughed thinking of the Airplane scenes, like the stewardess playing the guitar or Captain Kramer being a micky take of Heston. I think it holds up pretty well as a slapstick kind of comedy and it led to Police Squad being made which I loved, but you're right how people and times change, we tend these days to appreciate more sophisticated comedies for their word play.Yeah, the context/time within which we watch comedy definitely changes it, I’d say.
I think Airplane has a lot to give though…I’m now thinking about the captain asking the boy if he watches gladiator movies…and who would recognise Kareem Abdul Jabaar!
It’s a really, really silly film. Maybe how straight it’s played misses the mark for some? It’s a piss take of an already dated style of disaster movie right?
