    OMG

    what a film, what a fooking film. maybe my first ever oneclick bluefans and i never ever ever thought i woukd say that either.

    no spoilers here either i can't ruin it for anyone.

    but for gods sake go and see it soon as you can.

    its full on for the three hours, laugh cry everything.

    i don't think marvel will ever top it imho.

     

    never seen a cinema with people either could hear a pin drop at times and everyone was laughing at same times as was completely engageing and no chatter at all.

    best film of the year by a country mile 😃

  2. well my tickets are booked for endgame saturday morning 10.05 largest screen at the multiplex and so far the quietest booked showing.

    they start from 8am sat morning and is on every 15 minutes thru alot of the screens there, the amount of showings is insane and the amount of people booked up is also high.

    think this be the biggest film of the year so far. confidence is high xD

  3. @Pbsw23 precisely same as you in regards cant stand a million kids squealing away and the real other bug bear and pet hate real pet hate is the barsteward familys the come in with an load of noise sweet bags and they dont open them wide open and take what the want, they take one or two and pass it along and that can carry on for 10 mins before next sitting for them all. it really can ruin a film in the end.

     

    friday i was lucky but think i may go saturday morning instead this time, just for a nice empty screen.

    wife is off out with her mother shopping saturday:D result xDxDxD

    think also think another cafe breakfast could be on the cards that way as well ;)

    i mean im doing to be sociable and thats my excuse and im sticking to it xD

     

    basil :D

    That’s unfounded fear-mongering. You can download every title you own on iTunes and store it locally (the HD version), like say on a mirrored 6TB server.

     

    It’s not like premium retailers will stop producing though. The discs may just be inferior to what’s included in a digital package, be it exclusive extras or AV formats; or they could not include discs at all.

     

    They are already selling empty steelbooks at my local Best Buy for digital videogame copies. They could at least fill them with goodies though, like pop rocks and stickers.

     

    Also, is that what Easter is like in Germany? I have a new appreciation.

     

    hate to piss on your bonfire for one moment, i had ultraviolet account with about 30-40 uv films they shut it down and said i would have to go find all my orginal codes from the discs and could get them all back some how but uv was closing tough sh1t. wtf.

    too my hassle my old codes long since in the bin as was registered on uv!

     

    so basically yes digital can be lost just as my bank lost all my credit card statements at the critical moment i needed to prove i had paid for something already.

    and hence why i now have paper statements only.

     

    it has happened twice in my case. and not fear monging at least with a disc it in my hands, its down to me.

    That’s exactly what they should be doing.

    I would suggest they pull their finger out. My friends in the retail trade tell me 4k has not really taken off in the way manufacturers had hoped. Which probably explains why they keep touting 8K and now the bloody ridiculous 16k. 

    I’ll pray to the many faced God, that my 3D TV keeps going until a “modern” 3D/4K alternative is made. 

    Hopefully they’ll make 46” ones too. Can’t get anything bigger above the fireplace :D

     

     im limited to 50" same as you chimney breast in the way 1890s house, but they say to get true 4k you need at least 65" for the human eye to detect it apperantly.

  10. @DodgyDave they are supposed to be working on a 3d and 4k with outglasses and i guarntee you it will turn up when 4k sets have reached peak selling.

     

    also regarding imax 3d alot of cinemas are dropping the 3d element i went earlier in the year and it was a non 3d showing and was told imax in the UK have dropped 3d side of things and even checked the net to find its bloody well true, reason being imax in its opionon have found 3d showings sell less than a regular non 3d.

    stupid barstewards also on the up side if likes of odeon only buy non 3d version reckon is cheaper for them, but ticket prices dont go down do they.

    price rise via the back door.

    yet america still has plenty of imax 3d 🙄

  11. welcome @VladPutin very cool username, you sure you havent been sent to spy on trump xD

    nice to hear of your little one arriving, just have to order the premium steels when wife is asleep ;)

    then when they turn up you just say oh i did tell you, must have been tired and forgotten 🤣

     

    well hope you steel collection keeps growing nicely and premiums are truely the way foward.

    it got me after couple of years of collect normals and once started the premiums you dont stop.

    I also have limited space lol 2 book shelves full of steels and i have a very good clear out of old standard steels, a while ago giving away about 80 steels to the father in law and now is starting to fill right back up again.

    my one free piece of advice just dont just by a steel because its there. buy ones think are the best.

    save you some money and space. reckon 80 steels i gave away cost about £1200 at £15 steel average.

     

    all the best
