Watched Manchester by the sea and I viewe it as punishment and another slooooooowwwwww movie which seems to be the standard out of Hollywood lately. Just over two hours of my life I won't get back. How Casey Affleck won best actor has me stumped. I guess further proof who votes for the awards live in La La Land.

I watched Moonlight and it must have got the Gay/Black vote to win. Another long boring movie. I have no idea how he won best supporting actor when he is only in it for half the movie. The Awards are a farce.

Last night we sat down and watched "Hidden Figures". Great movie and enjoyable from start to finish. Made up for the horrendous long movies like Moonlight and Manchester by the Sea. 9/10 and Worth watching.

Look, if they wanted somebody to play a sulky, moody, broken bloke with very little to say, who likes to smash things and start fights in bars, then I could have done it for much much less, and saved them money on production costs.

Seriously though, I could have found 10-15 minutes worth of screen time to edit out of that movie; a little too long for what it delivered.

You looking to be the next Wolverine now Hugh has doffed the claws? :P
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Loved this movie; apparently Kroc's wife gave away much of the fortune they had accumulated upon his death?

I'm looking at reading the Ray Kroc biography to check if the movie was true to his recollections of what actually unfolded:

But those McDonald bothers got right royally rogered, no question there...

Thanks for the offer Stui, I didn't know Hugh had pulled the plug after Logan? Unfortunately, I haven't quite the body mass required for such a role. Deadpool I might get away with if Ryan doesn't suit up again...

Watched "The Great Wall' and it was an enjoyable movie. If downloading make sure you get the subtitles as it really helps.

Watching Star Wars - Rogue One at the moment and I am totally lost of where this film fits :shock: in the Star Wars theme/story.
