    Disappointed to hear this. I thought the trailer looked great.

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Does this count as a movie? Lovers Rock - the second part of Steve McQueen's Small Axe anthology. This was extraordinary - I now regret not watching it on a big screen with proper sound.

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Latest Halloween watches have been: Get Out - still excellent but perhaps not as blown away by it as when I saw it first Scream - great fun altogether and long enough ago that I had forgotten who the killer was Hotel Transalvania - sure, why not. Vampires vs. The Bronx - light-hearted Stranger...

    I love Near Dark .... and haven't seen it for a long time. So good call.

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Yeah I think I could leave Don’t Look Now for a bit yet. Having said that, we went to Venice back in the days when travel was a thing so there is that. Sixth Sense went down well enough. As a rewatch though - it’s not such a great film. Once you know the twist it’s a bit boring.

    A superb suggestion but we actually watched that quite recently.

    What movie did you watch last night?

    I've actually never seen Blair Witch ... Cornu - most of that's a bit strong. But Psycho is definitely on the list. I'm pushing for The Shining but not getting much enthusiasm about that. I love Prince Of Darkness! Actually that was the first film I saw in the cinema after they banned...

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Going for a mini-season of Halloween-themed movies (hence Donnie Darko last night). Gimme other suggestions ...... 15/16 rated horror is fine but not the more hardcore stuff (e.g. Halloween).

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Still works for me. Loved it when I saw it first (which was at the IFI Horrorthon when it was released). If the only good thing about it was the opening scene when Donnie wakes up in the middle of the road, climbs onto his bike, and cycles into town to the strains of "Killing Moon" that would be...

    Donnie Darko. Halloween re-watch. Still excellent.

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Watched Okja at the weekend which is a Bong Joon Ho film from 2017. Think it came after Snowpiercer so was his second (mostly) English language feature (I think). About a little girl taking care of a genetically engineered "super-pig". It's got genetic engineering and animal rights activism and...

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Yeah, the sound was incredibly irritating. Relentless. Attempting to keep the whole thing at fever-pitch all the way through. It worked for Uncut Gems but really really doesn't work for this. My prediction - in the future, much like The Stone Roses, people will regard this film as a joke.

    What movie did you watch last night?

    I thought Tenet was rubbish. Found it really boring.

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Rescue Dawn - Werner Herzog flick that's a dramatisation of the story of a Amercian pilot who goes down in Vietnam/Laos during the war (he previously made a doc about this guy). He gets captured (obviously). A lot of eating slugs, near starvation, terrible treks thought the jungle. That kind of...

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Been away for two weeks on family holiday. Brought the laptop/projector so we watched loads of movies. mostly family fare and some old favourites. Raising Arizona (1987) - is this the best Coen brothers film? I think it might be. Haven't seen it since way back and it's even better than I...

    I'm really looking forward to watching this but nevertheless keep putting it off.

    What movie did you watch last night?

    I enjoyed this. Good exercise in how to make a weird sci-fi film with no budget. Watched Something In The Air last night. Oliver Assayas movie about high-school/student radicals in post-68 Paris. Very hazy and nostalgic in spite of some heavy-duty violence and protest. Deadly soundtrack. Good...

    What movie did you watch last night?

    Yeah, I agree. I found it pretty disturbing when I saw it as a young fella. I think there was a rape scene by the side of the road early on that was just completely horrible. It was all very bleak and despairing (in my memory anyway). Much like The Road. Fury Road on the other hand is all...

    Parasite for the second time. Still excellent. Going to watch Vast Of Night now.

    Good Time - finally caught up with this. Even more stressful than Uncut Gems. Very good.
