@matt-wood I haven't ever got into it, started it with the wife and she doesn't like horror/scary stuff and she watched one and was like this aint for me and since them haven't been back!

Like Richard said, you gotta revisit and give it a go. 80s nostalgia done to perfection with a great story to go with it.

Sacriledge haha!! You have to go back to the well. Just find someone who will appreciate it to drink with

I mean if you were never into The Goonies and all the 80's kids against the world style feel then ignore but if you were.......you're missing out big time!!!

Gotta say I am loving season 4 of Stranger Things. I was really disappointed with season 3, for me it moved too far away from the dark show it began as into a more goofy and camp comedy parody of itself.

Season 4 has gone back to the same feel as season 1 though. Top stuff, 2 episodes left to watch.

Just rewatched Revenge of the Sith. After watching Kenobi it’s a cracking film. Sucks that Anakin turns. Love the fan-fiction where he didn’t.

You really are a geek aren't you

Surely if he didnt there would be no Star Wars. The original 6 films are the Anakin / Vader story really. One of my fav things about those films is the seemingly logical steps and choices that Anakin goes through, coupled with his onw deamons that leads him to the Dark side. Although he is never fully committed to it.

Having said that I have not seen any of the fan fiction where he does not turn, so will have to check that out.

Also if you hav not already read the Darth Plageus novel. It is the rise of Sidious from his pov. End of the book is the same as the 1st (4th) film, but from the perspective of the Sith.

@matt-wood phew thats my good deed done for the day then!

[Matt Wood]

Thanks for the heads up, had that on my list and was looking forward to it.

@john-folan Same, I thought with Hemsworth it would have been even worse, he was literally the only thing holding it very loosely together.

[John Folan]

@ryan I thought it was going to be like ex machina. But it was terrible

[Ryan]

@john-folan Had all the potential!

[John Folan]

@ryan That's the worst thing. It should have been great

[Ryan]

@john-folan Kept thinking surely it will get going? Nah it doesn't, strong cast too lol

[John Folan]

@ryan I watched that too. Utter pile of crap

[Ryan]

I watched Spiderhead on Netflix this weekend, don't watch it save yourself the 1 hour 47 you'll never get back if you watch this terrible film.
