It is the recent one . It’s Much , much better than the previous film .AddicksAddict said:
True Grit is a good film and Hailee Steinfeld is very good in the Kim Darby role but it is very much a film that didn't need to be made.Bedsaddick said:BOXING DAY

12.40PM - BBC2 - SINGIN' IN THE RAIN4.20PM - BBC1 - PADDINGTON9.00PM - ITV4 - TRUE GRIT (2010)8.00PM - SKY CINEMA PREMIERE - THE SUICIDE SQUAD8.00PM - SKY CINEMA ACTION - LOOPER

FILM TO AVOID

5.10PM - CHANNEL 5 - SISTER ACT
Which Suicide Squad, beds? The one with The Joker or the more recent one? I'm guessing as it's on 'Premiere' it's the more recent one. Not that it matters much, they're both pretty bad, only made watchable by Margot Robbie.1 -

Before all the madness descended we used to have film Fridays in a restaurant in the village (we are very lucky to have a local film maker living here). Bait was one of the first films he showed. Being as we too are are a wee fishing village that gets totally overrun in the summer it struck a few chords.
Fill ya boots. We’ve decided not to rent out our cottage next summer. I’m looking forward to seeing more of the area myself 😝0 -

Perhaps you and MsAA can compare locks (I think it was you on the 'pictures at age 20' thread that had similar hair to MsAA's).KBslittlesis said:

True, although it would be pretty much impossible to be worse.Bedsaddick said:

I was going to ask if the Barbary Corsairs were leaving you alone these days, but that would be silly.

Just don't read Des Ekin's book, it is to pirate/Corsair history what Dan Brown is to literary greatness...2 -

The Italian Job remake was a travesty. The original is infinitely better.1

Mine has all gone now I’m gray. First thing I did when I moved here. I just have a fringe to tame (must never get moist, she will understand 😝😜🤪😂)AddicksAddict said:

Slight spoiler alert. We saw it with a Q&A afterwards by the director, Joe Cornish. I asked if The Beano had asked for royalties for the use of Gnasher.3 -

I've not seen The secret life of pets 2 mentioned.
Anyone who has had a cat or dog would appreciate the time that the animators have taken to study the behaviour of the animals portrayed.
Me and Mrs TT thoroughly enjoyed it.1 -
Zulu will be watched again by moi and slept through by Mrs Carter.
Skyfall, I thought was second to casino Royale as the best Bond film of the Craig era. Training Day is a lot of fun, Denzel is great in films like that and Ethan Hawke is decent too as the rookie
2 -
Misery, just love the ankle breaking scene.
Promising You Woman, well worth watching, one of the better things to come out recently.
I won’t be watching Zulu, not one of my wife’s favourites. No way would she allow that on in the evening. I do have it on Blu-ray though.
Strong line up there and have to agree about Junior, excruciating dross.1 -

watched 'no country for old men' and 'i care a lot' after recommendation on here and both were good but blimey, BAIT, we gave up after 20 minutes0

Me too. I put it on for my children but I had to prepare dinner. I've still never watched it.clb74 said:

I can't believe that no-one has mentioned Mary Poppins Returns which made its first appearance on (terrestrial?) TV on Christmas Day.
I recorded it and watched it on Boxing Day with my daughter to make up for our abandoned match.
I never really appreciated musicals until about 3 years ago when I saw La La Land, Saving Mr Banks and the original Mary Poppins again at Christmas.
This 'sequel' does absolute justice to the original. My 6 year old daughter loved the parts like the bathtub and ornamental bowl, and just loved it all. I was watching a film for the first time but it felt like a member of the family had come to visit.
Sometimes I get nostalgic for old Christmas-s but as I cuddled my daughter at the end of the film with tears in my eyes, I wanted the moment to last forever.8 -

Having seen bits of it again this year, I’m going to have to watch it again now 😁0 -
I thought it was good (saw it when it was in the cinema) but not nearly as good as the original. The songs just don't stand up. Not so memorable.1

You should not have given up after 20 minutes.1 -
Watched the Last Train to Christmas last night - the Sky Original with Michael Sheen. A touch of Sliding Doors and About Time with a heartwarming ending that gets you thinking about your whole life and the decisions you make.
Really enjoyed it - took a while to warm up and get into it but was one of those that I didn’t realise how much I enjoyed it until it was over.1 -
Ffs death on the nile.
Wifes seen it 8 million times.
As it's the wifes birthday today I'm having to watch it again.1 -
