Perhaps the learned forumite was referring to the medical condition and not the motion picture

The Expendables 3: Too much Stallone. It's shit an' all.

I watched that on Saturday, it's been on my list for ages, waiting for an evening when Lady T is out (she thinks these films are stupisd and she's probably right). It was pretty bad, although Ronda Rousey was a good addition (even if her armpits looked a bit... funny) and it was good to see Snipes back in an action movie.

I think the best expendables film was #2, it was silly knockabout fun and of course had Van Damme hamming it up as like a loon. #1 and #3 were a bit shit really.

#1 was fantastic. Everything about it was perfect.

The end, where they storm the complex or whatever, was quite good but the rest of it was so lame.

I'm pretty sure that loads of dubious compensation claimants have said exactly that about the medical condition anyway.

Satsuma · **Joined:** 20th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 14356

It's not even a medical condition because it cannot be objectively identified, so therefore it must be bullshit and must be eradicated. Y'know, just like an X-ray can't identify if you've got depression. Thankfully this Tory government and their insurance friends are on the case so by October 2018 we'll largely have rid of this made up scourge.

You've obviously seen trailer 1, right? Right. But trailer 2 is here:

God this looks so good. After Lucy I'm hoping Besson is back on form.

Bloke looks disturbingly like Ian Beale at 0:43, and after the mess that was Cara Delevingne's acting in Suicide Squad I'm not sure she's really cut out for a lead role. Perhaps I'm being overly harsh though.

I think in fairness to her that was more to do with what she was given to work with.

I can't remember if I ever got round to watching all of the original IT. I watched the first part and found it difficult to get to sleep that night.

Jem and I watched "Life" last night, featuring Deadpool, Donnie Darko and the secret agent woman from MI: Rogue Nation (or MI5, which fits equally well given she's British in it)

Actually pretty good, which surprised me. Heavily influenced by Alien, that much is obvious. Surprisingly brutal. My only complaints are that some of the setup is questionable, but nothing majorly wrong!

I quite fancied that from the trailer so will probably try to see it this weekend. Although I also want to see Free Fire and Ghost in the Shell so we'll see if I can cram them all in or not.

re: Life

I am not a squeamish person, and I have dealt with everything from blood, poo and vomit to dead bodies (human and animal)...

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

...but Deadpool man's death scene turned my stomach. If it had gone on any longer, I would have potentially :spew:

Yeah, it's a slightly odd casting choice. I mean it's not like you'd expect the lead actor of a successful film to turn up in it's sequel or anything.

What I've watched recently...

Jack Reacher 2. Can't remember much about it. It wasn't great.

Dr. Strange. Found this curiously unengaging.

Fantastic Beasts... Enjoyed this, but I was expecting it to be rubbish. Katherine Waterston has an interesting face, she seems to morph from attractive, to plain, to interesting in every scene. Nothing to do with her gender, she just seems to have one of those faces that changes. Intrigued to see her in Alien: Covenant as the new lead. She's being sold as the new Ripley, which are big reeboks to fill...

Channing Tatum has some comedy chops, and he's believable in action parts too. I look forward to this.

I can't see these giant images, you see.

Well, yes I know they've probably come up with some bullshit excuse why he's not dead, but it pisses me off royally, is what I'm getting at. Why bother doing a shocking character death if you're just going to handwave it away just to bring the actor back? It's insulting.

So how are they going to explain it? A point blank bullet to head wasn't quite deadly enough? His consciousness was backed-up and reloaded into a robot body? He has a twin? What bullshit nonsense are they going to do?

I've just reviewed the scene in question and... well, there's no blood.
