Saw Sully this week. Absolutely loved it, but I've always been fascinated by that story anyway

Same here. How the fcuk he done it I'll never ever get my head around it. Hero.

Didn't really get Sully. They had to work so hard to invent conflict that didn't exist, and the ending made me laugh out loud! I'd have preferred to watch a documentary, but I suppose we'd never get that level of special effects and performance in the cockpit.

I prefer Air crash investigation rather than films on air incidents. there one on the BA flight where the captain got sucked out of the plane and the crew held onto his legs was amazing, especially as the Captain survived.

Saw Nocturnal Animals this week. A story within a story. Sadly, the inner story was OK but I didn't care about ANY of the characters in the outer story, so wasn't engaged at all. 4/10.

Ha yeah I've seen that one. Turned out some guy used the wrong nuts and bolts on the window. The pilots thought the guy was dead but couldn't let go in case he ended up in an engine and blew it up! Classic.

Yes, that was a BAC 1-11. I am just fascinated by commercial planes!

Looking forward to seeing Rogue 1 on Friday.

Me too. Going Sunday. Not a Scooby where it falls in the chronology though?
I've been so lapse compared to the lead up to force awakens!

It's set just before the original Star Wars film and is the story of how the Death Star plans were obtained.

I hope many Bothans die, I'm just like that.....

Just found out rogue one is a 12a. Bang goes my idea of taking my 7 yr old son on Xmas eve.

Yes, it does, but it's also advising you that it's really not suitable for little ones. When I saw Fantastic Beasts... there were a few probably six/seven year olds taken out by their parents because it was too scary for them.

When I took my daughter to see Frozen (for the 3rd or 4th time) it started late. The trailers came on and the message about them being appropriate for the certificate of the film.

I wasn't really paying attention but noticed they started getting nearer and nearer the mark. I looked at my daughter and she had sunk back into her seat with a look of concern on her face when there was an advert for a shot up film. I asked the woman next to me if this was the screen for Frozen, to which she replied "no love, Robocop"

If someone sees it with a 7 year old can you et me know how they found it please

Watched David Brent last night, huge fan of the office and extras, but don't like him as a stand up.
It has to be the most cringeworthy, but funniest thing I have seen this year, some real hide behind the sofa in embarrassment (for him) moments, my favourites being the tattoo and N word scenes, real lol moments.

Watched this today. Agree with Everything you've said. So cringy but a lot of laugh out loud moments.
Definitely worth an hour and a half of your time. Especially if your a fan of his other work

I don't think it's for under-10s. It's by far the most violent SW movie, lots of death and destruction, albeit bloodless violence. It's a bit like how the last Harry Potter movies were made with the awareness that the audience has grown up with them - this is for the 30-somethings, not the kids.

The Beatles: Eight Days a Week - The Touring Years


The Beatles: Eight Days a Week - is a superb documentary made by Ron Howard and is about the touring years from 1963 to 1966 when they decided to quit going on the road. It features archival footage of the Beatles concerts and the mayhem they put up with.
I really enjoyed this film. If you are a Beatles fan or not it's a fascinating look at the band in their prime, The thing that strikes me is how together they were and how professional they were especially considering the screaming was so loud that they couldn't hear themselves play.
Needless to say the music is great and Ron Howard has made it so in every concert you can hear them playing clearly while still hearing the pandemonium going on around them.
What I didn't realise was that the Beatles quit touring so early but you can see why they had to. There is brilliant footage of their last live performance together on the roof of the Apple building in London shot exactly two months after I was born and the difference between them then and five years previous is staggering.
Recommended.
