Breakdown with Craig Fairbrass. Really liked it.

And Greyhawk. I've never seen a film like it. The ending is a bit weird but the rest is brilliant. It's incredibly frustrating in the way you genuinely feel for the poor sod as he tries to make his way around completely blind.

Probably one of the most memorable films I've seen in a long time.

Finally watched Spider-Man: Far From Home.

It was alright. Mysterio was a good baddie. It had funny bits. Tom Holland was really good.

But it wasn't nearly as good as Into the Spider-Verse.

That film just nailed Spidey.

I love that film. The bit with the boy looking in the window of McD’s at the happy families always used to get to me. Also cuddly Dudley :luv: inventing central heating. It’s just brill. John Lithgoe is great in it, too. And Mrs Claus. Santa looks great: he’s just the perfect Santa.

Patch gets fucked over royally in that film. So what if a few toys broke? Stick with the assembly line, iron out the bugs and reap the benefits. Send a few apologies to the kids affected by the first run. A hatchimal or two should work

The start of new Rambo is just the worst.

There’s headache inducing Taken 3 style cuts and some CG water for some reason. Can’t have actors getting wet now can we. In the rain. But then they get wet anyway.

And the acting? Wow.

And the dialogue? Wow.

3 minutes in and I want it to end.

Rambo now lives underground in an interconnected tunnel system like he’s storing nazi gold. The tunnels have been referred continually and will clearly be where the final fight happens. It’s less foreshadowing and more smashing you over the head causing blunt force trauma.

I didn’t realise everyone in the Mexican cartel was in spec ops. They instantly die in amusing fashion (shotgun to head seems particularly effective), as was obvious from the trailer, but the CG is pretty bad in places. They put in CG lasers for some reason when surely a small laser pointer on a gun would surely cost peanuts in the states.

Then the credits are a montage of all the previous films just to remind you how shit this was.

1/10 for the deaths but it’s just Stallone’s poor facsimile of Taken. Taken 3, that is.

It does look like they're trying to do too much with it. All depends what they edit out, probably.

Watched The Irishman. Really enjoyed it. Paced about right for me, but We did watch just an hour the first night and the rest tonight.

I get what people mean by DeNiro moving ‘old’ but I think that’s because for a long while he has moved as if his neck is fused and his head joined directly to his shoulders. I think it’s forgiven slightly when he is really old, as he moved significantly older still. Maybe the young DeNiro character had a bit of a John Regis vibe about him.

Anyway, it was good. As much a film about ageing as it was about gangsters.

I will admit it really didn't take me long to get my head around the old part. I guess I didn't realise how much they had all aged, then looked at when Goodfellas came out and all of a sudden felt very old myself :S

Once I got my head around it though it was fine.

I meant to say about The Irishman yesterday:

1) I never noticed how short Al Pacino was before. I’d have thought he was shorter than DeNiro, but he’s significantly shorter.

2) Joe Pesci’s old man face was particularly good, like he had no teeth. Maybe he really has no teeth?

3) I had no idea who the ‘Irishman’ was until after the film ended. I had to ask Russell which of the characters was supposed to be of Irish extraction.

Huh, it’s on Netflix and I’ve not seen it for years, so I might do that tonight.

On a similar subject, what’s the name of the film that has... I think De Niro? Others, but the cast list escapes me because I saw it in the 90s (I think) where there’s a priest and there’s a group of boys being sexually abused? Might also have people like Kevin Bacon in it (might have imagined him? Or Hoffman (also might have imagined him))?

And this may or may not be the same film, but something where a group of kids accidentally kill someone by pushing a hotdog cart down a subway staircase?
