There sure are a lot of explosions.

The girl's voice sounds like it's dubbed in. :huh:

I see one of my favourite books from my teen years, Childhood's End, by Arthur C. Clarke, is coming to TV in a 3 part special. Kind of excited except trailers make it look rather V-ish

Oh, I loved it too. Will definitely check it out. [spoiler]Do the aliens look like devils?[/spoiler]

Man from UNCLE. Decent harmless fluff fun, even if a bit too long. As a spy comedy, it has the misfortune of coming after Kingsman (a vastly superior film), but I always enjoy Ritchie's playful style.

Also, I want to marry non-robot Alicia Vikander.

Egads, cause Kingsman was very underwhelming.

I've only seen the last 20 minutes or so of Kingsman and I thought mowing down the stormtroopers with a Glock was stupidly overdone.

Well, I loved Kingsman myself, but putting that aside, I don't think there's objectively any metric in which UNCLE would be superior - except hotness of the female lead and quality of impersonation of accents/speech impediments.

Actually all Vikander's character does in that movie is wear cute dresses. It's so blatant she's just there to look hot that I was a bit embarrassed of ogling her all movie long.  :blush:

I really need Ide back; he was an effective wingman because he drew all the fire when I defended some of my pet movie causes which he happened to share (he loved Kingsman too).

Duque de Bragança

Ide has to come back because he did not review all Melville movies, among others.

Josquius

Tangerine- famous for bring made using iPhones with a little clip on lens and I assume a huge steady cam rig.  Pretty ok film actually

Really, I thought that Chinese guy was a dude.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
