Never seen it.

A Man Called Otto starring Tom Hanks. Based on the Swedish novel A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman.

To quote Larry David, it's...

I would highly recommend interested parties read the book. I did, and then binge read all his books.

I've never seen an episode of Luther but watched the movie Luther: The Fallen Sun. Really enjoyed it. A wonderfully dark and disturbing cat and mouse thriller.

Cocaine Bear is HERE!

A dark comedy inspired by true events. Bear did cocaine, went nuts. :D

Edit: didn't realise the late Ray Liotta is in this

Only eight days until the Avatar 2 release. Can't wait! If you've not yet seen the first one (I mean, why!?), get viewing! :D

EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE, ALL AT ONCE (2022)

So I felt compelled to watch the movie that cleaned up at the Oscars this year

Literally couldn't even make it to halfway... and I did well to get that far!

Not saying its a bad movie as such(although I'd argue it isn't a great one) but it's definitely not my style.


Too much sci-fi fantasy nonsense for me

That confirms my opinion of not taking too much notice of reviews. I watched it months ago and I loved it!!

Couldn't agree more! One should decide for oneself

That said I've seen far more supposedly 'great' movies that I thought were trash than I have mediocre/poor ones that I thought were decent/good

Hey ho...

Decided to wait for that, too. It's just dropping now, 15% in. :D

Obviously a lot of confidence in this franchise.
Avatar 3: The Seed Bearer - Release date Dec 20th 2024 (Trailer already available) (filming completed at the same time as Avatar 2.
Avatar 4: The Tulkun Rider - Release date Dec 18th 2026 (One third already completed)
Avatar 5: The Quest for Eywa - Release date Dec 22nd 2028

They could release them in quick succession but made the choice of a 2 year gap between each.
