    On to the last of the Star Wars prequels, the first two were massively disappointing for me but this one seems a bit better so far. Natalie Portman is terrible in these films, can hardly watch any scene she is in, not a patch on Carrie Fisher. Tempted to buy the Force Awakens next from the Sky Store so that I've seen the whole lot.

    I might download it, haven't done that for a while. My internet is not much good for streaming.

    It's a coen bro's so thought it might be decent ????
    Mrs mop wants me to go with "Tumbledown".
    It doesn't look too bad considering she chose it....

    It's alright. Not their best work, but definitely worth a watch.

    "The legend of barney Thomson", absolutely loved it, good call Sir C Ben. Very funny.... Emma Thompson Was brilliant...I'm not usually a big fan of Mr Carlyle but thought he was very good in this and ray winstone did what ray winstone always does... Brilliant.... It might not be to everyone's taste but for me it was very edible !!!!!

    Seeing the adds for the new series encouraged me to d/load the first. The story is certainly intriguing, only half way through ep 1 and I am interested. The delivery is seriously flawed but the story, if maintained will hopefully make up for that.

    I was originally quite irritated by the lack of symmetry in the initial crime scene. It seemed to me that the body should have been along the border line, not across it. It would certainly have been a more interesting bisection and more balanced visually and intellectually. I was shot down though when the two victims were revealed.

    I do like disaster stories that are set in familiar places. Like the original War of the Worlds or Day of the Triffids, I quite like seeing the UK trashed. :) New york getting nuked or eaten by lizards isn't half as interesting. It even made London Has Fallen watchable for me.

    So you see, half an episode in and I am hooked.

    Please use spoiler alerts if you post more on S2.

    Only had a sneak peek so far but I like the the look of it and I do like films with a narrator.

    Looking forward to watching it but after months sitting on my arse, I am now rushed of my feet.

    Watched the third film in the Bad Ass trilogy last night, Bad Asses in the Bayou. Great fun, Danny Trejo (Machete) and Danny Glover (Lethal Weapon) as geriatric crimestoppers. I finished the last of the Star Wars prequels too (Episode 3) very disappointed but glad I watched the original trilogy just because it's one off the list, and they are decent enough films. Watching the last Hobbit film today, enjoying it a lot more than the Star Wars films if I am honest, even if the film doesn't seem to mirror the book too closely.

    "Jane got a gun", not one of the greatest westerns ever,
    But I quite enjoyed it, mainly because I'm able to watch miss porter
    Who I find Absolutly beautiful.... There I've said it...
    She is my perfect woman ( maybe with a bit bigger tits though)

    Just watched The Host, with Sairse Ronan and Diane Kruger from Inglorious Basterds, a bit of a corny low budget sci-fi drama about alien invaders but was mostly OK. You know you've been Aliened when all of a sudden you have a set of snazzy contacts in your eyes as if by magic...
