I watched it and i have to disagree massively.

I felt like Bond had a whole different personality to the other movies.
Bad guy - Rami Malek was massively underutilised. He is such a great actor and he gets about 8 minutes screen time. I didn't even think he was bad, I felt sorry for him.

Story line was rushed and was all over the place.
Location shots and cinematography were great but the movie was just a showcase the plans for the next movie.

That female bond did not display any likeability and I even feel like she wouldn't be able to carry the show as a stand alone lead, on her own.

Bond fans? Watch the movie.
Be ready for disappointment.


I did not suggest that there had to be another Bond movie,I thought it was a very fitting end to his career.You do realise that the James Bond movies have been around for almost 60 years?
All things must pass

It isn't passing though...

There was talks the female Bond will continue and now there's talks of finding the next Bond for the reboot. Few people have put their hands up from Tom Holland, Idris Elba and even The Rock expressing interest ?‍♂️

It is the end of Daniel Craig however.

I hope that they never give the Bond role to "the Rock", most pathetic hammy actor in the world, just relies on his physique.

He's so cringe.
I had to stop following his IG cos he's a big attention seeker.

He won't get it.
I think Tom Hardy should get a crack.

Tom Hardy referencing his character out of Peaky Blinders would be awesome.

if the Rock gets the role then Bond franchise is finished

Agreed,i hope they don't try to do the whole series of books but probably just the Paul Atreides part

Yeah quality watch that one.

Watched the big Lebowski again the other day. Another cinematic classic.
 
Just got home after watching the new Matrix movie.It was ok but not great probably a 6.5/10.If you go to watch it do yourself a massive favour and run as fast as you can when the credits at the end appear as the "music" is so bad that will feel like vomiting.Under no circumstance sit in the middle as you will likely have to trample over people in your haste to leave.

The original is one of the great films. Hoffman was great, but McQueen absolutely genius.
 
A really obscure film that I saw years ago - Castle Keep. Starred Burt Lancaster and a heap of others. Very odd, but I really enjoyed it.

Watched it at a similar time and whilst I enjoyed the movie itself, the bass was awesome, especially the infrasonic waves that permeated the theatre and were felt through the body to make it feel like one was there was the best part of a great soundtrack.

Will be grabbing a 4k disc of Dune when it's released next month to insert and then enjoy the mix whilst shaking both mine and the neighbours walls and floors.
