I went to a retro cinema at the weekend to watch "True Romance" This weekend they're showing "The Big Lebowski" but I ain't going. I only went last weekend because I got free tickets.

I actually hadn't seen it since the 90s and I didn't particularly like it that much back then, but watching it now I enjoyed it more. I'd forgotten how good that shoot out scene at the end was.

Yeah. Also the scene in the caravan with Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper

You wouldnt be able to do that scene these days. There would be a backlash of outrage.

I know Tarantino does use the N word a lot but it's used loads in that film.

They're showing that at my favourite independent cinema.
Might go to watch it again. It's so much fun!

A bit of a weird movie, not what I expected at all.
But I loved it and the acting was excellent.

I just watched this. I didn't get it.

[Livia]

Yes, I really enjoyed it.

[James]

Top Gun: Maverick. I enjoyed that one.

[Niamh.]

Everything Everywhere all at once, I did get it but I didn't like it, it was too long and it felt like it was just one really long scene

I thought they did a great job with it too

Yeah, I meant I didn't get the praise for it... it's the odds on favourite to win the Best Picture Oscar.

I thought the premise was a bit like Quantum Leap but this felt manic and incoherent to me. I couldn't wait for it to end.

Yeah I was waiting for it to end too. Can't believe it's favourite to win. It's by far the worst of the films I've seen that are nominated

[Cherie]

Going to watch Women talking tomorrow ...

[Niamh.]

Trying to get through the Oscars films before the ceremony, so I'm just about to watch Tŕr

[Niamh.]

It was good, not sure it's worthy of an Oscar though, I found it a bit vague in parts and I thought that was because it was based on a real person so they didn't have full stories/details but it's actually a fictional story so there's no excuse for that

me neither, it was all a bit manic for me

[Cherie]

Women Talking 10/10

Heartbreaking because the story is obviously true

1 hour 44 minutes of more or less complete dialogue, the acting was superb and I found it very moving

My favourite part was the acting. The main lead was excellent.

Yeah she was very good tbf

Just finished Elivis, I really liked this one, unusual style, it was almost like watching a comic book film if that makes sense? I can see why Austin Butler is a favourite to win best actor too, he was excellent

Loved this movie I was unaware of how trapped his manager made him due to the managers debts

Yeah me too, I was never a massive Elvis fan but it was interesting to hear his story as he's such an icon. It's very sad for such a massive star that he never toured outside of America. Playing years on end in Vegas for an artist like that must have been soul destroying
