Re: Rate the last movie you saw

Surprisingly *very good* quality.


With the choice between watching those *without* all of Lucas' later messing around, or watching my BDs with 1080p video and DTS-HD Master Audio *but* with said BS, I'm happy I went with the Despecialized Editions for this re-watch, and I'd go with them again next time.

Fair enough as yes hardly anything is ever perfect not even in our own lives.

Smile Re: Rate the last movie you saw

Well, I'm glad to see the generally high ratings for The Force Awakens - I've booked a ticket for the 31st...to give myself a bit of leeway re the kids. Past experience has taught me the wisdom of this approach.

Learn from experience, I do!

Re: Rate the last movie you saw

Star Wars 7, a very generous 8/10.

I have to say it did make me feel a bit old.

Though the more I think about it, it'll probably end up 7/10 (Maybe less).

Re: Rate the last movie you saw

Tangled (had to watch with sister a couple of weeks ago) gets a very generous 3/10 from me, Get Smart gets a solid 8/10 and The Other Woman gets a 9/10. I'm knocking a point off that rating because of a VERY shallow reason. Namely, no Nicki Minaj in a bikini. See, I said I was shallow.

IMO it is just a formulaic paper thin plot to fill in between the action sequences. Gone are all the great characters like Oddjob, Rosa Kleib, Jaws ETC. M, Q and Moneypenny are all duds and none of the Bond girls would turn a head while walking past a building site.

The franchaise is a dinosaur from a bygone era that is well past it's shelf life.

Thats what a lot of the bond films were though.

That is why Casino Royal was a refreshing reboot of the series. But sadly it was not to stay that way and is heading back to the usual series traits.Skyfall was brilliant though.
