Fair enough. I was watching it under the cloud of a massive bout of man-flu. It obviously interfered with my head. I've already got it on my rewatch list alongside Legend so when I do I look out for the subtlety.Abdoulaye's Twin wrote:The one with Matt Damon in it?

Pretty sure Mat Damon is nominated for best actor in a comedy for that...

At one point he says "I'm going to science the shit out of this", doesn't he? #iamout.
Looks like shitter Gravity. No thanks.

There are lots of implausible space epics.Prufrock wrote:"Matt Damon stars in implausible space epic".
Some, like Interstellar, Gravity, Star Wars, and Jupiter Ascending are pure shit.
Others like Alien, Blade Runner, Andromeda Strain, and District 9 are magical transformations.
The Martian lies firmly in the latter category. In My Opinion.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
I totally meant interstellar not gravity. Though thought both were bobbins. I've heard enough good things about the Martian that I'll probably check it out.
Anyway, tonight's Valentine's film is American Psycho which somehow neither if us have seen. Excited.

The Big Short. Cracking watch (though it seems to be a rule that to make a film about a financial clusterf*ck you have to cast Margot Robbie). Absolutely compelling, and interspersed with moments where waves of anger just wash over you.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Watched a couple of old favourites this weekend, Ronin and Killer Elite ( a crappily named but decent film take on Ranulph Feiness's book The Feather Men. Ronin, as ever, is one cracking film.

^ Ronin is one of my all-time favourite films and I must have watched it half a dozen times. It has been said that I have a passing resemblance to Jean Reno, or perhaps it is he that looks like me.

6/10 for deadpool. Few laughs in there but over hyped as expected. Ryan Reynolds is a bit too smug.General Mannerheim wrote:big tele night tuesday with Happy Valley, brand new Mid Morning Matters, brand new Better Call Saul and the 1st episode of Scorsese's Vinyl!
