Solid 7/10 from me, some really good plot lines good acting, and it did make me feel nostalgic for the first 2 Rocky movies

Deadpool

 

8/10

 

This was an epic comedy in my humble opinion.

Not for everyone's taste, but if you like crude humour, you'll enjoy the 'one liners' the 4th wall crossovers were a nice easter egg surprise too

Kung Fu Panda 3

7/10

 

Being a fan of animated films and loving the first two Kung Fu Panda films (the second being my favourite)...I was a little let down when I saw this over the weekend. I was expecting it to be on par with its predecessors...but unfortunately it re-used a lot of the old gags too often and was a bit linear with the story. The story 2D animations looked brilliant and the 3D effects were very good (not the in-your-face stuff, but the depth perception and the fact you could imagine what things felt like). It picked up towards the end with more, but not enough to rank it higher than its predecessors. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed watching it...but it'll be a while until I watch it again.

The Hunger Games, MockingJay, Part 2

1/10

 

Our beloved and benevolent leader, President Snow, is continually hounded and harassed by a known terrorist, Katniss Everdeen, who goes by her underground terror name The Mockingjay.

In a desperate attempt to quell her organisation, he resorts to ingenious self defence measures, he tries to reach out to her and her masters to no avail, he tries to set up traps to slow or stop their advance, and then he is framed for an unspeakable act before he is arrested.

 

Basically, the movie sucked :p

It was good until the end. While I felt the book ended too abruptly - I wasn't even sure what happened in the climactic scene without rereading a few times - the way the script expanded it was totally wrong and out of character for Katniss. It was such a poorly-done moment that it jolted me right out of the movie.

    • FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
