The Exorcist is one of my all time favourites. I was led to believe that the sequels were awful, so thank you for writing this.

I’ll check it out.

No worries. Like I said, not great, but definitely worth a viewing in my opinion. I’ve not seen the first sequel, but it’s famously bad. Check out the Critical Reception section on Wikipedia for an idea.

I should add that I don’t know if Exorcist 3 is available on any streaming platforms, but I hired the DVD from Picture Search on Swan Street in Richmond. It’s an incredible store, 40,000 titles, VHS, and he also sells lots of great stuff on vinyl these days. Any film buffs in Melbourne who haven’t been there should definitely check it out.

Was already hyped after seeing Dafne Keen return as X-23 i’m even more hyped cant wait. want to see Logan and Laura kick ass as a father and daughter duo

I’ll go and watch that, simply because I was a real Dylan fan in those early days. I guess it’ll be a fairly standard Hollywood biopic, but I’ll be interested to see how it treats his relationships with Suze Rotolo and Joan Baez. He really hurt those two women.

Watched The Song of Names last night- Netflix. Sad, serious, yet very moving & engaging - worth a watch. Good casting in connecting young characters with their older versions as the movie moves between past and present. Solid performances by all.

The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare…on Prime…directed by Guy Ritchie.

Story of a maverick group who went on a mission to destroy the supply ships for Nazi U-Boats. Authorised only by Churchill.

The main character, played by Henry Cavill, is one of the 37 people upon whom Ian Fleming (played by Spider from Slow Horses) is said to have based James Bond. The woman operative is played by Eiza Gonzalez (i think she was in Baby Driver) and is a solid 11.5. A good 2 bags of Twisties. Said to be a true story.

Just came back from watching long legs.

Good scary movie, set in the 90s in small town USA/Canada.

Recommend if you like a horror/thriller.

So it was true Robbie Downey Jnr is playing Doomsday

He’s Iron Man he sacrificed himself to save the universe ffs it will be like if they got Marty McFly to play Biff.

Dumb Marvel why not get a new actor to play Doomsday

reckon a series of average marvel movies and the boys has lampooned the whole avengers thing?

Im not expecting them to be that great

Same writers and directors from the last two Avengers films so expecting great films.



Torn.
Dr Doom is awesome.
Don’t be needing him with Doomsday, and RDJ is Not the guy to play him.
He needs old school buff with good writers.
Honestly, this is kinda Tom Cruise/Reacher stuff.

Dr Doom is so…evil and pragmatic that he’s cool.
Like a Bane that could whip Danver’s arse (and she needs that).

Bad choice.
Bad, bad choice.

Edit: TL;DR needs to be Doctor FARKING Doom and needs to be twenty years younger.

Cillain.
Or…hell…ugly Joel Edgerton.
What his name?
So hot right now…

Barry Keoghan.

I want sincere Dr Doom.
Not snarky, smarmy…that’s soooo not him.
And I Want Dr Doom!
