<p>what a moron, why would you take an explicit photo of yourself and send it to anyone via phone/e-mail, let alone an 'unknown' Twitter follower, and then do it again!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I just don't get the whole taking images of your junk and sending it to your partner, let alone randoms.</p>

<p>Watched Legend, the Kray movie with Tom Hardy playing them both. And fighting himself, fuck CGI is amazing these days</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I was riveted. Not because it was anything all that new about the Reggie and Ronnie, but I guess I was just captivated by the performances and the movie itself seemed pretty well made</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Had the mad brother from Peaky Blinders further typecasting himself (nah he's good) and the Kingsmen fella.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Worth a look if you've no distractions I reckon</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hardy was very very good</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Has anyone else sen Hunt for the Wilderpeople?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I loved it as a whole. Didn't like the chracter of the CYFs lady. Too much of a caricature of what she was trying to mock. Take that out and it was perfect.</p>

[hydro11]

<p>Hunt for the Wilderpeople was way better than I expected. Easily in the top 10 New Zealand movies and IMO significantly better than Boy. Great film.</p>

<p>I like the "If you're going ot run away tonight, just make sure you are back for breakfast"</p>

<p>The CGI wasn't anything that hasn't been done before, I mean Back to the Future was full of it when the characters encountered their older/younger selves.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hardy was awesome but the flick changed moods too much for my liking, couldn't decide if it was serious or black comedy.</p>

<p><em>Captain America: Civil War</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Kind of hard to remember, in the middle of all the explosions, punching, and awesome, that this was actually about Captain America and Bucky, and one fucked up unit played by the German sniper kid from <em>Basterds</em>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The bringing together of the characters - I haven't seen <em>Ant Man</em> at this point - was great, and all the nerds cheered around their gluttonous mouthfuls of popcorn and halitosis when Spider Man showed up.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It was a lot of fun, and a lot of movie at around 2 hours. A good addition to the Marvel Universe and the CA storyline. Probably puts the Captain America films on an upward trajectory i.e. original was OK, <em>Winter Soldier</em> I thought was pretty good, and this one was slightly better.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There are two end scenes BTW - one mid-credits and one end credits. I was busy trying to herd the boy's friends out the door to their parents who had already been waiting 20 minutes to pick them up. Fuck you, cinema previews!</p>
