    Nostalgia watch. It's probably not as funny as I think it is. The dad and teacher still make me laugh. Nice writing.

    Schizoid embolism 😂

    You can travel, and live, on Mars, you can change your nail colour in a second and implant memories into people but... you still need humans to use hydrolic drills on construction sites. Maybe I should open my mind.

    The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim

    ★★

    Poor. This film is adapted from a two and a half page story from LOTR appendices, which, on the face of it seems like a fairly interesting story of betrayal and heroism but this 2 hour+ anime adaptation is drawn out, quite boring and devoid of humour.

    It lacks the charm and excitement of the Peter Jackson live action films. The King, his daughter, and supporting cast are fine but not especially interesting and add nothing new to the fantasy…

    Don't believe the hype. This film is dog doo-doo. It is neither a good Predator film nor a very good action film.

    I watched this upon recommendation and advised that the reviews were good - the film is lauded for casting predominantly Native Americans (Comanche) and was released with the option to watch it entirely with Comanche audio dubs apparently - this dubbed version wasn't available on my streaming platform (Disney). Is casting the right people for the right roles…
