Agreed. The original is brilliant, the remake, total dog turd of a movie.
Gonna finally watch Her tonight and expecting big things.
I'm sure that film was a prequel COYBL, Thought it was okayish, nowhere near as good as the 1982 classic.
Been wanting to watch this for ages, what’s it on ?
Just gonna stream it online mate. Not o Netters but maybe on Prime? Will let you know what it's like.
Very good film. Ahead of its time in a number of ways. Enjoy it
You’re right, but nowhere near the first.
The one a John Carpenter I’m surprised they’ve never done as a remake is Escape From New York.
In the right hands it could be very good - someone like Pete Travis who did Dredd.

Leigh Whannell has been brought in to write/direct the remake. It has had a few people be in that same position over the last few years and each one has then dropped out. They're obviously keen to remake it though.
Get it watched, amazing film, blew me away really. I went in with mixed expectations but Joaquin pulled off another stellar performance and so did Scarlett despite being an AI.
Can’t get over how good Her was man. Absolutely breathtaking. So annoyed it’s taken me 7 years to watch it.
The more times I watch Train To Busan the more I want to kick the crap out of the dude in the black suit.

Seen a few films recently on a site called Rakouten. It's another streaming service where you can pay cash or 'credits' to watch films. Don't think they do a subscription service, so not really sure the point of the credits (I get a little thru work each month), but they also have some free to watch (with adverts) films. Fortunately there only seems to be 2/3 sets of adverts per film, and they're normally very short. The selection is quite mixed, and generally quite old. There looks like some real duds on there, but also some decent films, like Amelie.
Watched one on there called 'Deception' on the weekend. Geoffrey Rush plays an antique valuer(?)/auctioneer who is called to value a collection of works at an old dilapidated villa, by a mysterious woman who never appears face to face. His character is old and cantakerous, with some peculiar behave 'issues', but Rush plays him really well and you soon find yourself rooting for him despite the way he treats people most of the time. At first he wants to refuse the woman's request, but keeps returning to her villa despite his reticence. Quite slow, but a good watch and quite charming.
Can't remember if I posted about Parasite already, but watched it last week and really liked it. I have been thinking having seen it that it is a great entry film for South Korean/Asian cinema. Bit funny, bit weird, bit dark, bit brutal. It really brings together all the things that scene does well in to one film. The gateway drug of SK/A films....
Doesn't help they made him look like an even more creepy, arrogant version of Stuart from TBBT...
That geoffrey rush movie is slow but the twist is very good....not surprising but very good.

Had high hopes for this year's ago but found scarlet Johansson's voice so irritating I turned it off. Might have to try again now I'm older and more patient
