I laughed a few times though, Christopher McDonald and Ben Stiller seemed to have the measure of it, if nobody else did/could

Also, is it lazy filmmaking or acceptance that the Netflix audience desperately need to be spoonfed, to explain the constant clip show moments of the first film each time a reference was made? Probably both of the above, tbh.

Got to a point with Happy Gilmore 2 where I felt it had reached the limit of its welcome, and then it carried on for ANOTHER HOUR.

Shocked, stunned and frankly appalled to say that the new Jurassic World made me a bit emotional at points.

There’s currently a non-zero chance that Frasier Crane is in the next Avengers movie, who’s to say he’s playing Beast again?

The Prince Charles Cinema and the death of the West End No city has as flagrant a disregard for its own culture as London.

Particularly shocking detail here, suggesting reasons why the Mayor and the Culture Secretary might be looking the other way on this. www.newstatesman.com/culture/2025...

To quote a film I love, that I would have missed if it weren’t for @princecharlescinema.com showing it on release: β€œwe don’t get a lot of things to really care about”.
So for the sake of this cinema that I and countless others love, I sincerely hope they win out against such unscrupulous landlords.

Really didn’t care all that much for #Nosferatu. Looks fantastic and some of the horror worked (the blood sucking was good and disgusting), but it feels far longer than its 2 hours. Willem Dafoe and Nicholas Hoult innocent.

Mostly enjoyed that there #DoctorWho special. I do feel like the Voyage of the Damned-esque climactic moment nearly capsized the whole endeavour but Moffat et al *just* made it work by episode’s end. Particularly liked what Joel Fry was doing!
