[Megatron1505]

Caught a movie that flew under the radar from last year over the weekend called “Cold Skin”. It’s a Lovecraftian sci fi horror set in the early 1900’s about sea monsters invading a small island…..that’s all i’m saying as it’s well worth a watch.

+2 from me and the mrs as we really loved it

Yep, I didn't really understand that bit….

[Seul]

Good first 45-60', after that not so much…

[bryaneidins70]

I really liked it and I like Sam Rockwell.

I thought the ending lends itself to a follow on? not sure if that has been mentioned anywhere in film land.

I’m a bit old fashioned in the sense that I believe if you’re telling a story you need to tell the whole fucking story 

[Seul]

Bet you're not a fan of TWIN PEAKS then  :-\

***** Potential spoiler** (I tried to be as vague as possible)

I strongly disliked the ending at first, too. But, after discussing it with the person I went with, I realized that it's strongly suggested how things will conclude, which shows some real growth for at least one of the characters. (Who'd have thought you'd be cheering for him at the end of the day?) I've come to be quite satisfied with the ending.

Guess who'll be drinking nothing but 0.0% Jupiler during his stay in Belgium…

Yeh, still rather them show me than suggest it. It’s a movie not a Dungeons and Dragons choose your own adventure book.

Thor Ragnarok - 8/10

Entertaining, especially since the first two Thor movies were practically devoid of humor. My son loved it as well. Afterwards he decided he wanted the same haircut as Thor 

[Seul]

Yep, I'd give that an 8 as well… Never saw the previous two flicks... Didn't seem to matter much...

[gaseousclay]

Bonus points too that my boy liked Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song 

[Chris]

Robert Plant's howling was the worst part of the movie for me.

Cate Blanchett, however…

Saw Annihilation this evening with the Mrs. I thought it was a great film with the last 20 minutes elevated through superb visuals and an ambient techno inspired soundtrack  However, Jules felt it was a bit slow at the start but felt engaged in the second half. Interesting / unusual story . . .
