They've been advertising the hell out of Us on TV here. Looks like some spine-tingling shit. Difficult to find a proper scary film and that certainly looks like one.
don't watch trailers at cinema so haven't seen a trailer and I don't watch TV aside from Netflix etc so I haven't seen Us advertised yet but it's getting good reviews - Shazam is all over the buses in Sydney though.
Check out the trailer. Preferably at night, with the lights out. It looks genuinely scary.
I don't watch trailers ... at all. Too many spoil movies so I've now just given up.

@Nepia yeah because they show you the key pieces of the plot from start to bloody finish. I've been avoiding the Avengers stuff so I can hit it fresh when it comes out. But it's soooooo hard to resist!!

Was knackered after a night in Auckland so on Sunday during a channel surf, The Magnificent 7 just started so I decided to watch.
What a cool movie!!! It kind of works better without the special effects!
Remake or original?

I had Room ruined for me, the Brie Larson one, not the other one
and since then I've 100% resisted ever watching a trailer, before that I wouldn't watch many ... although the Star Wars ones never really show anything so I watch those, but that's about it. -
American Psycho
If Christian Bale has ever given a better performance than in this I haven't seen it. Just a weird, fucked up movie in which he is just awesomely psychotic. So many quotable lines and scenes although possibly let down a bit by a slightly anti climatic ending ?
Fuck there were some absolute piston wristed gibbons in the 80s.....
4 returned video tapes out of 5 Robert Palmer tapes

@MN5 this is why initially I thought you were someone I knew when I joined the fern. I think we may have had a discussion about this movie and your comments echoed my mates. Plus your use of the word "pal" and overall sense of humour.

Really sorry to hear, my condolences.

Original. Is there a remake? Is the remake shit?

It's unlikely. I don't have many friends. That's why I joined the fern

Yeah came out couple years ago, Chris Pratt is in it. Thats all i can think (ive never seen it)
Original is a classic, Steve McQueen is the man.

It sure is, what a collection of old school tough guys every single one of whom is sadly pushing up daisies.
McQueen was probably only the 3rd or 4th coolest in the Seven though......Bronson, Coburn and Brunner were sensational.

Or the original original?
Kurasawa's Seven Samurai still blows me away whenever I watch it (about every 5 years).
Sturges' 1960 version is just as good and has cooler music.

Sadly, This was the first time I have watched it and I recorded the last 25 mins as I needed to feed up the farm.
Went to watch it last night and the misses had accidently deleted it! I was gutted.
Should be easy enough to find somewhere though to watch

Speaking of which, church across the road had their annual gala day. Had a look and they had the original Star Wars trilogy for sale in VHS. No big deal of course but with Star Wars you can’t get hold of the original uncut unbastardized version on either DVD or digital. Only VHS or laser disk

I know I should see this before reviewing, but I'm prepared to make a prediction and say you should see it. A cross between Unforgiven and Gran Torino
Yeah, I was right. Much more Gran Torino than Unforgiven.
3 beaners out of five crackers.

A movie with Clint in it automatically get's at least 4 out of 5
Aw actually,apart from "Every which way but loose" and "Any which way you can"

You'll understand when you watch it.
