Bloody brilliance.

From the DC universe, I have Justice League, Aquaman and Shazam to watch. Will get around to that eventually.
the link below shows which order to watch the Marvel films, so the story makes sense.

That's one hell of a movie marathon though!

Most recent film watched was on Foxtel. Mortal Engines. That's 129 minutes of my life I'm not getting back. Horrible! Good Idea, but poorly made and clichéd

Picked up some cheap DVD's at the market last weekend.

Spiderman far from home,
Fast and Furious - Hobbs and Shaw and
John Wick 3

Watched the first 2 while up bush and watched John Wick 3 with the old girl last night. She loved it. :lol: The hand went over the eyes at a couple of the more graphic bits but she didn't let the fact that had no idea of the plot spoil it (not that there was much of a plot, just action from start to finish)

Both of us particularly loved the pair of Belgian Malinois dogs, which look a little like smaller German Shepherds but geez, they're fast and when they attack go straight at the nutsack.
:shock:

Thoroughly enjoyed it and of course there will be a part 4.

Hobbs and Shaw was fun, Spiderman was OK.

Very rarely. Movies for me are escapism, park brain at door and entertain me. To watch a movie that required me to concentrate would have to have a premise that really grabbed me, which happens very rarely

I accidentally broke my rule about not watching movies that require concentration and finally watched Joker tonight.

Wow, Phoenix is an Oscar shoe in.

That was an 80's movie, set in the 80's, with an 80's use of soundtrack, with a modern story and anyone who decried it as encouraging white supremacists clearly hadn't seen it. If anything, it's a socialist activist call to action, which may be why they went so silent once it was released.

The guy copped it up the arse from birth and yeah, I'll admit, at the end I was cheering him on.

Anyone put off by the DC Superhero link need not be scared, the Batman links are basically easter eggs and if you know nothing about Batman, the movie stands alone and you could walk out knowing no more.

Very good movie, made my brain work (which I normally hate in a movie), I look forward to someone doing their masters thesis on this movie.
