What was the last movie you watched?


Recommended Posts

2024 Thread is here

 

So far I've watched two movies during Apple TV's free weekend (Jan 3-Jan 5)

 

GreyhoundIMDB

8 out of 10.  Intense movie which wasn't drawn out or sidetracked by irrelevant bs (fairly short at just over 90 mins). 

 

Fly me to the Moon, IMDB

5 out of 10.  Started off strong and I was liking it.  However, towards and during the third act...this movie just started sucking.  Guess it was supposed to be a RomCom ... but lacked the Rom and the Com.  Unlike Greyhound...this one was drawn out way too long.

The End IMDB

2 out of 10

Instead of watching this, take a crap in a toilet and then stare at it for 148 minutes and make up a song about it on the spot.

The song you create will be more catchy than anything in this film.

Watch The Greatest Showman instead.

My GF and I watched it in 4 viewings, 3 of which I started to fall asleep during.

I watched Gladiator 2 last night.  The first one is a solid 8 or 8.5, this one is around a 7 IMO.  You never quite feel the same way for the MC like you did in the original.

Just finished watching The Naked Gun.

I'm impressed. One of the few comebacks/reboots where I've thought that they nailed it. I was laughing the whole time at the old-school comedy, and Liam Neeson was Drebin's kid through and through.

I watched both Prey and Alien Romulus recently. I thought overall Prey was better, but Romulus was pretty close too.

It has decent reviews

TBF it only has good ratings from RT critics. Most others seem to think it's okayish

See, for me Prey was alright because it continued branching out into a new idea of Predator, but there was something wonting for me. I think Predators did a better job of being part of the series. Maybe it felt more like a B-movie than Prey tried to be.

I thought Romulus was great, although that was because it was a rehash of the original Alien film but designed for a younger generation. All of the tropes were there, I had good fun.

But hey, it's all subjective. Something works for some people and not others. 🤷‍♂️

Oh, I keep meaning to watch that! Ana de Armas and an action flick, I'm going to love it. :laugh:

I started watching One Battle After Another. It was not was I was expecting, so I needed to stop and I'll maybe get back to it at some point...

    • Honestly that feels even more useless than it did when Win11 was first released. In 2021, the uproar was somewhat justified, but only when comparing how good we've had it since Windows 7. Prior to that, a new Windows release would often require new, or very recent hardware. Windows XP wouldn't run (in any usable way) on hardware released when it's predecessor Win98 was released (let's ignore ME). It was time to shift the goal post, and the way Microsoft did that was actually ok. People have still had another FIVE YEARS of free software support with Windows 10, and those of us who want to have used these tools to bypass the limitations, all while understanding the impacts that may have. Most laptops don't last 5 years (sadly), so now the youngest unsupported hardware is 9 years old, and apparently has another year of support with Windows 10. That's good. Meanwhile, understanding the impacts and limitations, I have my 2013 laptop running Win11 perfectly fine. The thing that's failing on it is the hardware, the 2.5" SATA cable/chip is failing and corrupting the SSDs I put in. Thankfully it has a functional M.2 sata drive that works fine!
    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
