Hancock, 1/10 Avoid.

just seen Wanted. My Fiancee wanted to see it and I thought it would be utter crap after seing the trailer. It was actually not bad. It was big, violent and stupid, and didn't try that hard to be cool. Still, for big loud dumb films you can't beat Face/Off and The Rock.

The trailers for the new Mummy film looked good, as did Hellboy II. The latest Pixar effort Wall.E looked a bit rubbish if you're older than 7 though.

[Rovermatt]

It's had almost wholly glowing reviews. Including five stars from Empire.

[Billy Castell]

Which film was that, Wall.E? It just looked naff, although visually it was on form. My favourite Pixar film was The Incredibles.

[Rovermatt]

Yeah Wall.E. I have to say The Incredibles is up there for me as well.

Hancock, 1/10 Avoid.

Should have taken your advice. Poor film.

[Rovermatt]

Having already watched it on 'tinternet I went to see The Mist on the big screen last night. Fantastic film and in fact a lot darker than the book in many ways.

To say the least!! Stephen King pulled a right twist to his short story on that one.

Worth watching.

KungFu Panda + Imax = excellent fun film

I have just seen the latest trailer for the new Batman - dam it looks good. I dont go to the pictures much but may well do for this one.

Watched "Fools Gold" last night, it may have been due to drink, but I thought it was ok.

If you can go see it in the IMAX, its supposed to be "oh I need new pants" good

I know I am going to sound like a complete fool here but anyway - what is an IMAX cinema? I ask because the one we have here on the Isle of Man is like the old one that used to be in Blackburn near M&S and so not great.

[Flopsy]

What is IMAX

I doubt they'll ahve one in the IoM considering they've only just got electricity

Ah very good. Does anyone know if that cinema in the printworks in Manchester is one of these?

[adopted scouser]

Yup, they have Imax.

[Cocker]

Yup, they have Imax.

Nice one. I normally stay in Manchester the night before Rovers games so will have to make sure I take a film in while I am there.

Can't wait for 'The Dark Knight', curious as to whether they were going down the old Jack Napier.. Axis Chemicals .. Surgeon .. Joker etc I phoned a mate who's seen it at an industry screening last week.

Apparently he arrives in Gotham already in his present state, only to make occasional sarcy/comic comments on why he looks the way he does.

Two other comments were offered - he couldn't believe it's only a 12a certificate, and it's the best Batman of all. (Just short of a three hour sitting - take a cushion)

[Rovermatt]

Sounds good then.

[rebelmswar]

Just to get you all in the mood for Dark Knight.

Batman Deadend

One of the finest fan films of all time.

[Rovermatt]

WATCHMEN!

[rebelmswar]

WATCHMEN!

Just saw the preview before Dark Knight, superb looking movie.

Dark Knight.... you have to watch this movie!!

Joker has never been better, the actor could not have went out with a better bang.

Four stars easy.

[rog of the rovers]

Anybody seen the Dark Knight yet? or Wall-E?

I'm hoping to go see them sometime this week.

[rebelmswar]

Anybody seen the Dark Knight yet?

Yes it was fantastic, couldnt believe over 2 1/2 hours had passed.

I have never been so creeped out by a performance ever.

The magic trick part was especially enjoyable.

I'm hoping to go see them sometime this week.

You should go now.
