Really? ☹️ Well, look, I'll be the first to tell you that my taste in films is questionable.😄 I was expecting to feel indifferent towards this one based on what I'd seen and heard, but I ended up liking it quite a bit. And I can perfectly understand why some wouldn't though given the nature of the story itself. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I’ll admit I was surprised to see your post but we all like different stuff. I guess I was just curious if it was because it was Ridley Scott, or whether you just enjoyed it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Nah, it wasn't because it was Ridley Scott (who I actually took issue with when he started having a bit of a knee-jerk go at "millennials" and superhero movies for the film essentially bombing). I'll put it this way, if it wasn't for the last third of the movie/story, then I probably wouldn't be buying it. I think it was mostly Jodie Comer's character and performance that made the whole thing worthwhile. Otherwise, I tend to shy away from films that deal the with some of the heavy things that this one does.

My problem is having to wait for one of our Premium retailers providing us with this and me not being able to see it unless I ordered this 4K (now): 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can’t get my head around the casting 🤯 But regardless of that, 2 & 1/2 hours of misery is more than enough for me. 😂 I do like gritty, but I think I prefer a gritty series that are broken up into more palletable chunks. This one gets filed with the “one time watch” movies for me. I think the only one of those that I have bought was Spotlight (mostly for Keaton). But IMO The Last Duel is light years away in terms of performances from the likes of Spotlight. Obviously these are very different movies in terms of era, but why oh why oh why would you cast a bunch of Americans attempting old English accents… for French characters?! Utterly Bonkers. But anyway… all just opinions and not worth anything. I’m glad you got more out of it than most, and I hope FA do it proud mate. 🍻 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And let's not forget Keanu Reeve's 'star' turn as Harker in Dracula... every time he opened his mouth, the wife and I were in stitches. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this IS Affleck & Damon we’re talking about here. 😄 Will never understand why film makers continually make these decisions, BUT… NOTHING can trump Harrison Ford & Liam Neesons Russian in K-19!!! Why Russians on board a Russian military submarine would ALL talk to each other in 100% English is Beyond me, but worse is that I find it Entirely Unbelievable that either of these guys are Actually trying to put on a Russian accent! Just embarrassing. 🤣🤣🤣 Just another reason for my feelings towards Mr. Neeson. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Pbsw23 Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 @Robertm89 Thought of you when the news broke about Trippier, that’s a damn fine signing mate. But I am very curious what your thoughts are on Mr. Wood signing for that price tag?! I guess the price doesn’t matter when your as rich as Newcastle right now, but with FIFA Fair play rules in consideration was that a good move do you think?
