Lucky I’ve got @Bones to audit that thread and point out my discrepancies.

Nicholas Cage through the years
I still find it weird that the only time he had a full head of almost natural hair his skull was on fire.

Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre. Directed by Guy Ritchie. Starring the Stath, Aubrey Plaza, Hugh Grant, Carly Elwes and Josh Hartnett.
This was actually really fun, it's the Mission Impossible movie I've been wanting where the team has a mission and they do it and don't wind up being double crossed by their bosses (although they do have a competing team).

4.5 Waymonds out of 5 Evelyn’sBloody hell. Sounds like the bizarre dinner conversations I once had seem to have with the truly weird woman I dated a couple of times after I split up with the Ex.

Kingpin
By far the Farrelly brothers best movie. So fun to revisit after a long time.
Woody and Randy have such fun chemistry, Vanessa Angel is HAF, the comedy is terrific, it’s full of quirky, weird supporting characters…….
Oh and possibly this guys finest role ever.
Four 7-10 splits out of five Munsons in the middle of nowhere.

Looks great

Brendan Fraser and Colin Farrell nominated for best actor Oscar. Would never have made that prediction back in the day. I do have to say that I've always liked Fraser. A goofy mofo with few pretentions. Can't stand Farrell but maybe he was good in this nominated movie? He was pretty damn good as the penguin.

I didn't really buy-in to the whole Avatar thing the first time around, so it's unlikely I'll watch the second.
I honestly don't remember being that blown away by the visuals or special effects either.
CGI just doesn't cut it for me. Still looks like a computer game. If I want beautiful visuals I'll watch BBC nature series in 4k.
late to the discussion but thats what i was thinking, CGI has to be easier when you're recreating something that doesn't exist in the real world...we dont have anything to compare it against, make a movie based in the real world but is completely CGI and the audience cant tell...then i'll be impressed

As it's now been nominated for best picture I have to go see it as I watch all the best picture nominees each year.
But to your point, I would have thought that would be quite easy? I remember watching a movie about the Nuremburg trials 10-15 years ago which on the DVD extras showed how they used CGI to make the modern version of the buildings look like the 1940s versions. When watching I had no idea. With the Volume and other similar tech I would think it would be fairly easy to create the real world, and our brains are already tuned to it, unlike Avatar where we know it's not real. Anyway, that's just my thoughts.

Right. So. I just watched 9, fucking nine, Fast & the Furious movies over 9 nights.
I don't know why I hate myself so much, but I clearly do.
No review necessary, I assume.
We all know what these are.- Titwatch = zero
- lots of arse/camel-toe dancing to shit music at unbelievable underground race events
- Physics starts losing its power early on, but holy fuck - by #9 - physics has gone. Dead. Like - American Gods dead - Physics is fucked...up
- I'd forgotten Gadot was in this shit. Hot.
- Karma visited me by having the cunty little shits who actually look up to this shit - particularly virulent last weekend, at the place I'm staying. Really really fucking hard to consider Dom or Brian as heroes when their real-life counterparts are revving up shitty fucking shit cars at the beach carpark. Fuck... what an absolute shit make-believe "counter-culture".
- That was a terrible little experiment. Fuck you Fast and Furious. And thank you Google, for eventually making this available as something people might read when googling fast and the stupidly fucking furious.
Edit: I haven't watched the "spin-off" Hobbs and Shaw, or whatever the fuck it was called, as part of this masochism. I'm not sure I hate myself THAT much. But... considering it. Fuck... what a condemnation that is.

Sit back, relax, enjoy and don't worry about the physics.
Or where a whole bunch of trashy people managed to find the millions of dollars for their cars.
I only got into at 5. Then out of it around 8. Was a good period.

@MajorRage Mrs Womble...who normally doesn't bother with too much she might consider trashy.....loves them all, we watched all 9 during lockdown over a few weeks, stupid mindless action made even funnier by the fact the first one is about stealing DVD players
