I really enjoyed Troll Hunter, but the ending sucked.

Loving the new Avengers and Spider-Man trailers, not gonna lie. I'm hoping Andrew Garfield can pull off some classic Spidey quips and cheeky banter. Maguire was a bit of a massive baby tbf.

Favourite news however is that Robert Rodriguez has got funding for and is making Machete Kills!

That film was quite obviously propaganda from the Norwegian tourism board. It was pure scenery porn.

Would you enjoy watching five films pretty much back to back? I've only ever watched at most double features, and regardless of the quality of the films I find my attention wavering towards the end of the second. I do not think I could stay interested for 12 hours.
I'm probably gonna do a comedy film marathon to raise money for my society. Probably gonna show a Monty Python film, a Mel Brooks, maybe a Marx Brothers. What comedy films do you guys think I can put in? The obscurer the better tbh.

With a group of friends i can certainly do 5 films in a row. Stock up on drinks and snacks and it'll all be reet.
I'd definitely fall asleep towards the end of the second film. Starting with Inception is brave though.

I marathoned all the Star Wars films back to back with friends once and that was pretty tiring...

Carnage was brilliant! So so funny.
Bit sceptical.

Finally saw Drive after putting it off for so long. Hot damn that is a good film.

Not necessarily. As the title indicates, it's very much a new character dealing with the aftermath of what Bourne caused so the story will pick up on the threads left by Bourne, his 'legacy' if you will. Of course, another point is simply to tell people this is another sequel in the franchise...

Not gonna lie, that looks great.


Just say this advert on tv and cant believe Lucas decides to re-release this one out of them all on 3D. He could have at least done the originals first.

Well it is the first one (Episode I) and it makes sense to re-releases this one first as they all will eventually come to the cinemas again in 3D. So people can watch the whole Star Wars saga from I to VI in order.

Just thinking of some possibilities off the top of my head:

Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Election
Some Like It Hot
One by Woody Allen? Annie Hall is great
Airplane!
Groundhog Day
There's Something About Mary

Fairly generic/non-obscure list, but they're all funny at least.
