Had a watch of Room 237 - a movie exploring the hidden meanings and messages found littered throughout The Shining.

 

A good watch for those who love the film, and plenty of terrific reveals (does get bogged down in nerd pish from time to time...bound to given the fucking GEEKS doing the chatting haha)

 

7.2/10

I always preferred the book and though the film is pretty good it’s not quite as good as it could’ve been........

Well there you go son - all the moe reason to watch. Immediately made me want to rewatch the movie.

 

They do this thing where the play the film backwards, superimposed over the film playing normally...some CRAZY shit man

 

Buy a nice baggy of Kripple Shock or summat Chewie; a terrific combo haha

I’m up for that. I did some media studies shit and the maze scene is where they first did a spring loaded rig up on the camera so when the cameraman runs after the kid (don’t get excited) the picture doesn’t bounce around

Rogue One - Star Wars film, fine enough film, good battles and smart spaceships, don't understand why the Empire built another deathstar and didn't learn from the first one and left a wee bit they could fuck it up in. Also thought Darth Vader was dead. Couple of glaring plot holes aside not a bad film. Nae tits 6/10

That was the first death star though........

Some of them are just batshit mental.

 

The wifie droning on about the minotaur from one of the posters was just ludicrous.

Laurel and Hardy.

 

Billed as the "untold story of their last tour". Not quite, as anyone who has seen the L&H documentary will know the story already. Nevertheless it is a story well told with good performances from Coogan and Reilly. It gives the opportunity to reminisce and reflect on the comic genius that was Stan and Ollie. Couldn't help but notice as the credits rolled alongside actual clips of L&H that not a single soul stirred from their seat until the final clip faded from the screen. Fitting tribute to the best ever, forever.

Watched Acts of Voilence a Bruce Willis movie, I think hes turned himself into Michael Caine and just trying to appear in as many average films as possible. It’s a bit of a limp film about human traffickers who pick on a family of ex US Rangers. An okay background filler, but nothing to go out of the way for 4/10

 

Also You Were Never Really Here with Joaquin Phoenix, this ones a bit more interesting, Phoenix is an unhinged veteran who recovers missing kids by battering cunts heids in with a hammer. Things go wrong and it gets a bit interesting 7/10

And the director is a dandy.

Never thought of The Shining as a horror as such . Looking forward to watching the docu on it.

Why not? Is it because its not done in a traditional horror style? Quite interesting that folk might not think that despite the fact there’s creepy twin ghosts, floods of blood, a crazy axe murderer, a screaming woman a creepy chase scene and a hot bird that turns mouldyand putrid.
