deane koontz Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 Star Wars think i saw it once when i was a kid. Not for me Liked the Nolan/Bale Batman films but other than that all the superhero guff isn't for me. A bit mad grown ups wank themselves daft over them Quote
MickyD Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 If you don’t like any musical theatre at all then you’re missing out on a lot of great stuff. Les Miserable top of the pile. Quote

I took my daughter to the cinema to see the new Aladdin a few years ago assuming it was just a normal film. 5 mins in they started singing. She turned her head and just smiled at me. Done over by an 9 year old. Quote

Read it... Was bored by it...going nowhere but I was too far in to stop reading in case it actually went anywhere. Couldn't stop reading in case it got good. Didn't want to continue reading it as it was boring me to death. Catch 22 Quote

ErnestTurnip Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 Catch 22 an ok book, film not so much although a few decent performances. Wife's downstairs plaguing me with ABBA atm and it's bought The Princess Bride to mind, does that count as a classic people will have overlooked? Quote
