So...3 days to kill.
Its not an awesome film, but its not aweful either :)

An RCZ, as well as alot more peugeot product placement and Boobs. What more coukd you want :p

I give it a 7/10.



Also, the new Robocop. I also give that 7/10 as while its a modernised version of the original, nothing realy happens. So im eagerly awaiting the sequal :)

I have the wolf of wall street to watch at some point, then its back on the hunt to find some more :)

A tale of woe...this is...For sum strange reason My Sony AV Reciever went Capoot last week whilst still under Guarentee....So i returned to the Retailer..ie Richersounds of Glasgow,to Advise me on what i could do about it :eusa-think: After a explanantion of the faults they said...they would give me a new replacement :dance: My Reciever was a Sony 1040...a new 1050 was out :eusa-think: :eusa-think: but Jassy was standing right outside the DEMO room :eusa-think: :eusa-think: and i could hear this "Tremendous Sound" echoing out of the DEMO room.. "Desolation of Smaug"l asked :eusa-think: "What amp is firing out that very Movie theatre like sound" to the Salesmen...He said the "PIONEER LX77" Av amp..

Toooo cut a long story Short Jassy walked out with this "Liviathon" of a AV Reciever...all £1700 quids worth for a bargain £900 VIP membership discount...it was A 9.2 THX ULTRA 2 Approved AMP...best of the best :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Was really chuffed...got it home WIRED IT UP....ALL CONNECTIONS DONE......could i make head or tale of this amp.....nope tried for a day and half....got some progress..but realisation hit home...this beast was not compatible with my speaker system, its meant for large speakers...ie THX of which i cannot accomodate in my bedroom...this thing weighed the best part of 18KG :cool: :cool: So its went back :( :( :( BOOHOO

Moral of this story :eusa-think: :eusa-think: Do yer homework firstly James.....too put this in comparison to understand

This AV reciever was the M3 COUPE of AV recievers :cool:

Saw that this morning too! Looks excellent! Also watched 'Non-stop' with Liam Neeson last night. Not bad for all but the last 5mins. I give it a 7!

I started to swear out loud at the pathetic crash sequence. As someone working on engine certification I took it quite personally to see them thinking a rear fuselage explosion was a perfectly valid cause for an engine to go bang. F-wits.

Haven't seen that yet but did watch Need for Speed the other night. It has a real B movie feel despite the budget. The script is quite honestly dire and there is literally no character development. Now I REALLY rate Aaron Paul as an actor but he never gets the chance to shine in this film. It's predictable from start to finish and gets no more than 5/10 for me. I was really disappointed. :thumbdown:

Its exactly like the story lines of the need for speed games. It starts off with a story, you think, this will be good. But after the first two three races. There is no story line, just cars lol

Dawn of the planet of the Apes. 8/10
Surprisingly engaging story has you rooting for the Apes more than man. Excellent visuals underpinned by Serkis' ape performance. Some clichéd Hollywood bits but actually a really good film.

Transformers age ofextinction 2/10
I give it 2 only because it has big robot battles. Nothing with big robots mixing it up can score zero but this film tries hard to! It's at least an hour an hour too long, could not use more clichés if it existed only to use every cliché ever, there are so many big momemts/set pieces you become immune to them and the story is utter crap. And why, when the robots are supposed to mimic what they see to the same scale, are the dinobots all ten times larger than their real counterparts? Utter never ending shite.

Boyhood 10/10
Filmed over 12 years with the protagonist aging from about 7 to 19 years old this is a fascinating and moving film the likes of which has never been seen and likely won't be again. It engages you and draws you in like few films you'll ever see. It helps if you're a parent as you'll see it from both angles but at around 2 hours 45 minutes long you'll never find yourself checking your watch to see when it'll end, it's that good!

Just seen Danny Collins in the cinema and I thought it was very good. I would rate it 7/8 out of 10. Light hearted comedy with a very good leading role in Al Pacino.

Anyone seen it or anything else for that matter? I intend on going to see San Andreas at some point aswell...

I'm holding out for the new Jurassic Park movie. I've never really been a disaster movie fan. I also think Chris Pratt is simply awesome. Brilliant in Parks and Recreation and Guardians of the Galaxy.

Last film I went to see was The Avengers: Age of Ultron (I'm a bit of a superhero geek...particularly when it comes to Batman). Thought it was brilliantly entertaining. The last Thor film on the other hand...absolutely dire.

I think the new Jurassic movie will be very good and this seems sooooo far away. I'm not a big fan of Ben Affleck but I have a strange feeling he'll be good in this (I hope).

No, my mother-in-law ended up in hospital, nothing too drastic, but meant the only two nights we had spare were spent visiting instead.
Still hoping to go, but this week looks doubtful now too :thumbdown:

Crack on buddy :lol:

No, as far as mother in laws go, she's pretty much harmless really, & I have previous here, this is my second time round.

She has MS about as bad as it gets too, so it's kind of par for the course - hospital - home - hospital etc

Anyway, still hoping to get to the flicks and see lots of people dying :shock:
