@john-folan I’m not really one for watching films but was curious to see this. There’s been a few hit and miss music biopics so good to hear this is worthwhile

[John Folan]

@richard-latimer How can you not? Honestly this film had everything. I actually feel emotionally drained after watching it. Rare a film does that to me. Five Folan Stars for me.

The new Elvis biopic is fantastic. Hanks is genius and Austin Butler IS Elvis. I still remember by mum sobbing the day he died and his music has always been a big part of my life. Really emotional film. Just go see it.

I love a bit of Elvis

Just seen the Book of Mormon for the second time. Still the best musical I’ve ever seen. Fantastic.

Just watched Hustle on Netflix. Adam Sandler is superb. Excellent film and well worth your time

That one's on my list to watch. I recently enjoyed uncut gems, Adam Sandler was good in that too. Utterly chaotic and some huge basketball bets being made!!

Ooh not seen that. Will have a watch. Thanks.

China Beach set during the Vietnam War. Nurse Collen McMurphy my first love!

I remember her from Desperate Housewives, man what a great show that was!

@john-folan That was a different level that episode, so good!

I've always wanted to see Vader in his prime.

Great show this!

man these mid-season breaks are brutal!

Better Caul Saul and now Stranger Things, hope this isn't a new trend

Stranger things is ok but man are those kids irritating or what? Me - Im on the monsters side - eat the buggers.

My favourite show since Breaking Bad but I can see why some people don’t like it. Just lines up perfectly for me with my nostalgia of that time period and my love of X-files as a kid.

@john-folan I really do think Disneys focus was the series not the films, they had to do the films and let's face it they were always going to be pressure.

Rogue one they smashed though.

These series have been amazing, getting better and better!

Wait until you watch the last 10 minutes of episode 5.

@dr-steve-buckwell gave her a google, I can see why many fell for her!

@ryan thats way too high tech for me Ryan. As for Julie Newmar as the original catwoman from the 1960s tv version of batman - a whole generation of spotty teenage boys fell in love....

[Ryan]

@dr-steve-buckwell no but I will check this out, on Disney?

@ryan Ever watched the 1970s (possibly 80s) comic scifi spoof "Dark Star"? Still creases me up.
