Sweeping Strings

'Beauty and the Beast ... and if somebody else calls you 'Beast', I'll rip their lungs out'. 

I liked Jurassic World. Fallen Kingdom was passable entertainment. Was put off Dominion by how many reviews cited the unnecessarily long runtime and the clearly disinterested performances.

'This channel is reserved for emergencies, sir'.

'No shit, lady! Do I sound like I'm ordering a fuckin' PIZZA?!?'

It was a bold move, that EON just couldn't sustain.
Look where Craig's Bond started from... and look where he ended up...

'I admire your courage, Miss ... ?' 

'Trench, Sylvia Trench. I admire your luck, Mr ... ?'

'Bond ... James Bond'. 

Call me 'a sexist misogynist dinosaur' if you must, but I was quite chuffed with that particular Fleming line making it into CR. It was quite a surprise.

On Spielberg cameos ... isn't he one of the 'celebrities who are secretly aliens' on the screen in Men In Black HQ? Plus a voice cameo in Paul, if memory serves.  

Dune Part 2 - the conflict between the various factions for control of Arrakis' 'spice' production begins in earnest, and in its depiction Villeneuve turns in an absolutely spectacular sci-fi epic that thrills the eye and stirs the blood. Brilliant.

Anyone else tried to use Star Wars as an inspiration for pick-up lines?
 

Dune Part 1 - I have decided to go and see part 2 on my day off tomorrow, so I thought I'd better see part 1 first. Like Blade Runner 2049, this is a lengthy, mostly stately-paced and visually stunning sci-fi flick directed by Denis Villeneuve. Unlike that movie, I wasn't bored ... again, the visuals are stunning but the narrative kept me interested as well (and I was able to follow it OK, which is always a bonus. lol).

A Star Wars-related wang is perfectly capable of popping up repeatedly, if Mattris' constant reappearances in the Disenchantment thread are anything to go by. 

I recognised bits of it ... after seeing the movie 'back in the day' the first time round, I rented the soundtrack CD from a place that used to rent CDs as well as VHS cassettes and taped it (the tape's long gone). Some nicely stirring stuff in it, in the days long before he became a score 'factory' just churning 'em out. 

You may think that, I couldn't possibly comment   .

Backdraft - squabbling brothers, a serial arsonist and political skullduggery are all in the mix in this Ron Howard number set in the Chicago Fire Department. Kurt Russell, William Baldwin, Scott Glenn, Robert De Niro and Donald Sutherland all do fine but the real stars of the show are the pre-CGI pyrotechnic effects which are spectacular, terrifying and utterly convincing.
