I liked Vince Vaughn in Old School.

I liked Vince Vaughn in True Detective season 2.
You're joking, right?.. Sure: he was fed the most in(s)ane lines by Pizzolatto, but he was absolutely horrible… I remember everyone agreeing with that whilst it was airing as well...
I disagree. I think everybody was expecting a repeat of season 1, hence the poor reviews of season 2. Vaughn did an exceptional job as a 'bad guy' who was morally ambiguous. His arc was interesting to me and I felt bad for his character's demise. Curious to see what season 3 brings to the table.

Yeah that was an unfair end for him.

Season two of True Detective was a lot better than the critics would have it, and certain things with it were great. I wouldn't say VV was one of them, but he wasn't as awful as he was painted to be.
Agreed. I think viewers were too hung up on how great season 1 was that they wrote off season 2. I thought s2 was good for what it was.

I've re-watched s01 three times and there are some great moments and I could watch MM all day in that role, but you're dead right Seul, it ended weakly. As far as S02 goes I think the McAdams/Farrel pairing was awesome and I was genuinely sad about the fate of the Farrell character. It was well played. It was a hot mess at times with some poor scripting but I enjoyed it.

^^ after watching each episode ten times I began to get critical. But when I watched that for the first time?? I was enthralled.
MM was great but Woody deserves just as much credit. That dude played a washed up HS football star turned detective like an absolute pro. That role is the exact oposite of his real life self. He’s a pot head vegan who lives in the jungle on Maui. They both deserved an award for that show

I've watched these over the last couple of months…..
Baby Driver.......light hearted fun movie.
Blade Runner (original)..... Bit Boring but will go and see the new one.
Gold.........Really enjoyed this, some good music and based on a true story
The Founder...... another one based on a true story about the start and rise of Mcdonald's.

I went along to see The Foreigner today. The basic plot is that Jackie Chan's daughter is killed by a bomb planted by a resurgent wing of the
IRAUDI. Unfortunately for them, he's got a very particular set of skills…I enjoyed the film. It's less cartoony than Taken, which would be an obvious, but lazy, comparison. Chan plays the lead in a lot more dour style than his usual roles. Pierce Brosnan makes a good antagonist, as a terrorist turned politician, reminiscent of Gerry Adams.

Anyone seen the new Blade Runner yet? I saw it last week. Really enjoyed it. I wasn't a diehard fan of the original which I was worried I'd be lost but I kept up with all hints to the backstory. The trailer made it look like it was going to be explosions and gunfights from start to finish which I thought would ruin the vibe but it was nicely paced and sounded amazing!
Also, the fight at the beginning was awesome! I felt like I was getting my ass kicked!

Blade Runner 2049 is awesome [emoji41] Me and Jules are fans of the OG and the sequel delivers [emoji106]

Need to see it. Whats the soundtrack like on the new one?
-
Sound track was engaging and reminiscent of the Vangelis original, without it being a replicant!
Wicked synth/ base/ sub base sound scapes, making for a very satisfying sound track.

I'm curious why Denis Villeneuve didn't just hire Vangelis to do the score for this film? ???
