I imagine it'll be a perfectly competent--even decent--film but I just can't find it in myself to give a fuck as a pure reaction to how much it's already ubiquitous. And that's going to get much, much worse before it gets better so I suspect by the time it's actually showing I'll be so sick of it all I'll have no intention of watching it. I'll probably see it some hungover Sunday years from now when Lovefilm delivers it to me and I want something unchallenging to look at for a while. |

It would be a surprise if that was the case, though they are foreshadowing it a little. I expect he will be in a more Yoda type role, as the grizzled veteran they have to find to unlock the Force within the newbies. Or he could be the bad guy. *shrugs* |

It was. I'm struggling to think of any way in which Blade 3 could be considered the best of the bunch. Other than humour, that is if you find Ryan Renold's forced wisecracking funny; it really was a steaming turd in every way. |

All I know is I found Blade 3 the most enjoyable. More fun than the others. I'd put them in order Blade 3, Blade, Blade 2. Really didn't get on with Blade 2 at all. So there you go, gives you good reason to take the opposite of what I say about films to be what they are actually like. Or something. I saw Suffragette today which was brilliantly acted, well directed and scripted but the constant dim lighting and handheld camera were a bit of a problem for me and detracted from what could have been much better. Still very important and worth watching though. |

Did the BTTF marathon at my local cinema on Wednesday. Tiring, but good. BTTF1 is still the best of the three for me - and I noticed a few little things in there that I'd not noticed before. The one thing I can never understand about the plot is that, before Marty's time meddling, Biff is George's supervisor and treats him like shit. Fair enough, we see enough of that character throughout the 1955 portion of the film. However, after Marty gets back to 1985, Biff is self employed as an auto detailer - nowt wrong here, of course - but George employs him to wash his car, and doesn't bat an eyelid when Biff comes into the house uninvited to bring in his new book when it's delivered. He even says "I've had to keep on top of Biff ever since high school", and then Lorraine says "Still, if it wasn't for him, we would have never met." Nothing particularly bothersome here, apart from the fact that George decked Biff in 1955 because he was in the process of raping Lorraine! OK, you might forgive and forget in 30 years, but I'm not sure they'd talk of him like he'd introduced the two of them at a party one night or something. |

"Rapey" to me generally means rape/attempted rape is inferred, alluded to, or otherwise discussed, but not depicted. Or perhaps someone expressed attitudes associated with rape without actually committing the act itself. That's the context I've heard it used in most. |

Without being interrupted, Biff would probably have raped Lorraine just a few yards from several hundred people. And yet, 30 years later... "Hey Biff, you're a close family friend that can walk into our house any time without knocking. That Biff, such a character!" I'd like to see what Biff was like in the 1985 that Marty finally settles in at the end of Part 3. The 1985 where he was given the Almanac and saw that it was genuine, then had it ripped away. I can't see that Biff becoming the mild-mannered doormat that we see at the end of Part 1 |

If someone is an attempted rapist then they have tried to rape someone therefore is a rapist as far as I'm concerned. The fact that they've failed doesn't put them halfway between rapist and innocent. |

'Weekend'. Naturalistic and touching film about falling in love. One of those films where the cinematography, the dialogue, and the performances are all so good that the story feels completely authentic. Tom Cullen's performance in particular is superb: you really want him to get the happiness he deserves. ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! |
