@daniel-mills Thanks Daniel, Akira is a fantastic film and was my first ever dip into that world.
-
@matt-wood Akira is well worth a watch if you liked ghost in the shell and want to dip into anime
-
@john-folan I liked Alita thought it was decent!!

Just watched Ghost in the Shell. Hollywood version. Thought its was ok, not Scarlet's best performance.
Not a huge fan of Manga but like some. For those who might know, how close was the film to the original version? I liked the story and concepts in the film so might venture into the world of manga for it.
Try Alita Battle Angel. Ghost in the Shell the film is not as good as the graphic novel by a long chalk.

@ryan Plot holes galore, annoying leading lady character. Entertaining and Batista! Its ok, nothing special but not the worst.
Ending is shite as well, don't forget that.
Surely he will do the right thing haha!
-
@ryan Yes and no. Way too long for a brainless action vehicle but some decent set pieces.
-
Hmmm it might not make it to the stop what I am doing and watch list then!

Watched 'Outpost' on Netflix yesterday. Better than I expected it would be.
Low budget B-movies style and if you like action/horror with a bit of sci-fi it will work for you.I used to love all the old Scyfy channel b movies. Snakes on a Train and Transmorphers being two massive rip offs that were quality.

I'm sure everyone and his dog has seen it, but just in case you have not, The Untouchables in on Netflix now. Fantastic film.
Also: Tremors!

@richard-latimer I prefer watching them on my own! Saves explaining what’s going on
Yep! Kinda ruins the experience if you break your immersion every 5 mins to explain things
Plus gives you ideas on how to deal with those that have wronged you. At least that’s what the voice in my head says…
That is exactly what your therapist is for Mr Folan

@richard-latimer hereditary is great. Not seen the others yet but on the list
-
@richard-latimer not that my wife is a mong (I know that’s not what you’re getting at :D)
But yes. Totally understand what you mean. For me dark/horror/sci fi stuff stays well within personal time
-
@richard-latimer Sshhhhh I will get in trouble...
