<p>watched the 2nd one last night. not as good, but still alright i guess.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also watched Revenge of the Sith last night. It's definitely the best of the prequels, but still far from perfect. My kids don't like it much, my youngest burst in to tears when Anakin turns bad, and then the eldest does when Anakin fights Obi Wan. </p>

She's an irritating wetback, no two ways about it. <br><br>
My boys love Bond, Indiana Jones and Back to the future but Star Wars trumps the lot. Some say I'm brainwashing them but those fluffybunnies can fuck off back to the PC crap kids are supposed to enjoy nowadays... -

Naaa they haven't but I'm sure I can track em down somewhere. Admittedly the Indy obsession is more my 5 year old rather than 7 year old. They can't figure out why there are 20 something bonds and only 4 Indy's....<br><br>
Neither can I. -

Make that one bond , that's about enough.</p></blockquote>

Chill, bad puns and camp secret agents might be your thing but Indiana jones trumps that easily. Tell me the world would nt be a better place with 16 more jones movies and at least no Roger Moore Bonds ? -

<p>Just finished watching Sicario. I can not commend this movie enough. Stars Emily Blunt, Benicio del Toro, and Josh Brolin. The pace and direction is excellent, cinematography brilliant and acting superb.</p>

Grabs you with an explosive opening passage, but I felt it slowed a bit through the middle but otherwise was good.

I actually really liked the Moore ones, he could actually be pretty ruthless at times but I think people complain about the preposterous nature of some of his movies ( ahem, Moonraker ) whilst forgetting the one right after which was a great thriller ( For your eyes only )<br><br>
If there were more Indiana Jones movies perhaps the series would be closer in my eyes. But hey, Indiana Jones is still fucken awesome, Raiders is easily the best, Last Crusade second, Temple of Doom third ( but still a classic ) whereas Crystal Skull didn't really do it for me much save for the classic Ant fight ( fucken love it when Indy is getting a hiding from a big guy, often Pat Roach, and something in the environment saves him, this happens to Bond quite a bit too ) -

Sorry I was late, I was busy arguing on another thread why Chris Cairns needs to be in the Black Caps all time XI. -

<p><em>The Good Dinosaur</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p>As usual with Pixar: well written, but at the start it was difficult for me to watch as they tried to build a dialogue around agrarian dinosaurs.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Anyway it picked up and had the usual emotional stuff, some laughs, couple of tear-jerkers, etc.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Mostly, it was a vehicle for Disney Pixar to show everyone how their animation of water and landscapes kicks everyone else's arse.</p> -
Stupid tv, I have Shawshank Redemption on DVD, yet you still put it on tv and I end up watching it, not always from the start, but I have to watch to the end, ads and all!
