rudi must stay Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 American Beauty What a filmmaker Sam Mendes is. Very very interesting man (he has done so many great films that for me he gets the credit), this film is unique and absolutely correct in its character observations.

Disney made huge amounts from merchandise from the Spriderman films. I think Disney got about 10% of box office but they still made a profit. The whole superhero scene is worth huge amounts if the films are done right. Disney have made the Marvel films more popular than ever and wanted to include Spiderman so it was worth the possible risk to them. Sony now want to do their own Spiderman films and for a few weeks there was a fall out between Sony and Disney over the % split. I think it was resolved and Disney can use Spiderman in films going forward as long as it isnt a Spiderman film. I think I have that right - I read about it a few months ago - but am happy for someone to correct me. BoT - Spiderman Homecoming has just been added to NOW TV films. Saw it at the cinema and my son wants to watch it again. Watched a few recently with the kids. Trying to introduce them to older films and we have watched: Mrs Doubtfire Cheaper by the Dozen Who framed Roger Rabbit Dr Doolittle (Eddie Murphy) Some of the humour is as funny now as then but a few cultural references are dated. All still worth a watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vansen Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Death Wish 2018 version with Bruce Willis. Eli Roth directs with some trademark black humour and gore in an otherwise by the numbers revenge flick. I suppose it's to be expected that Roth would become more mainstream, however I miss the savage humour and gratuitous gore of the first two Hostel films, Cabin Fever and, to a lesser extent, The Green Inferno. 5.5 /10 Edited April 12, 2020 by Vansen .

JudyJudyJudy Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I taped " The 10 Commandments" yesterday and watched it last night. I had seen it before but fancied an old film to chill out to. It really is a big pile of tosh really !! But incredibly entertaining. Charlton Heston was so wooden in the part , he always was really, Yul Bryner as Ramses was slightly better and i felt the great Anne Baxter was the at her slimey best as Nefertari . Of Course the special effects were stunning for its time and it must have been thrilling to watch it on the big screen then, It falls into the films which are so bad they are actually good. 8 /10 !
