Maze Runner 2 - The Scorch Trials (2015)

The first one was a decent bit of 1950s style sci-fi so thought I'd give the next one a go. We find a bit more out about what's going on outside the Maze. There's another one after this so I wasn't expecting much of a conclusion this time but it moves the story on and stays interesting.
Some stupid stuff in it. The baddie is so obviously a baddie it's impossible to believe that of all the maze-surviving 'elite' teenagers only the hero is suspicious of him.
There's the old trick of getting in a physical altercation with a guard in order to steal his I.D pass (which is required to get through the doors). But given the guard needs the pass to get through the doors himself it seems a bit unlikely that he wouldn't notice it was gone.
Nit picking aside it's not a bad watch, will have to look out for the third one when it comes around.
Good film.Quote:

Good film - one of the few Steve Martin films I can bear to watch. Lily Tomlin is always good.
I like it and a couple more of his. Depends on mood tho.

Carry on Cleo 1964. The then hot Amanda Barrie as Cleopatra.
Fab film and many costumes and sets from the Burton Taylor classic were used. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...98417d29c4.jpg

Don't lose your head. 1967.
Classic comedy. Some great sets etc. Good British corn. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...72f30b9fa1.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...8591a6b757.jpg

It's OK, but a long way from being my Sellers favourite.Quote:

After a bad crash a previously successful NASCAR driver struggles to get his balls back.
Will Ferrell is no Chevy Chase or Bill Murray but the torch of the Saturday Night Live style of film got passed to him at some point so if you like the sort of Caddyshack/Fletch type of film he's really the only game in town these days. Has some funny moments, Gary Cole playing the dysfunctional father steals the show a bit. Worth a watch.
The Cassandra Crossing. 1976, stars Richard Harris and Sophia Loren among many.

Bicentennial Man. 1999.. Robin Williams stars.
https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/i...cHLrVyVPRYP85s
did poorly with critics and boxoffice, failing to recoup its $100m budget shared by Disney and Sony. well done effects and sets tho.
Blazing Saddles. 1974. Cleavon Little, Madeline Khan, Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder star.

Was not universally liked by critics and the studio neally didnt release it. That would have been amazingly stupid.
Rev. Johnson : 'Now I don't have to tell you good folks what's been happening in our beloved little town. Sheriff murdered, crops burned, stores looted, people stampeded, and cattle raped. The time has come to act, and act fast. I'm leaving'.
I have it on DVD and think it is excellent.Quote:

all good fun
Francis Ford Coppola's The Conversation, 1974 starring Gene Hackman.

great quote about the film.. "This tense, paranoid thriller presents Francis Ford Coppola at his finest—and makes some remarkably advanced arguments about technology's role in society that still resonate today."
This is the Blu Ray Collectors Version

Jack The Ripper 1988 tv mini series starring Michael Caine and Lewis Collins.
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon...._AC_SY445_.jpg
One of my favourite films. I found the denouement near the end quite surprising/shocking. And I'm still trying to work out how the "bugger was bugged". :scratch:Quote:

This DVD arrived today, not seen it for ages, but I remember thinking it was very good.

A revisionist, anti-establishment Western, it was summed up well by Roger Ebert, of the Chicago Sun-Times, describing Little Big Man as "an endlessly entertaining attempt to spin an epic in the form of a yarn."

This as you see is the blu ray release and very good picture and sound on it.
It must be over thirty years since I saw that. I remember thinking it was an amazing film.Quote:
