    Ok, here's my Oscar rankings from best to this movie is utter shit and probably still would have been without the shitty ham actor in the lead.

    1. I’m Still Here
    2. Anora
    3. A Complete Unknown
    4. Nickel Boys
    5. Conclave
    6. Dune Part 2
    7. Emilia Perez
    8. The Substance
    9. Wicked
    10. The Brutalist

    I think I discussed all of these in the thread. TBF, 7-9 could all be 7th equal. Actually Emilia Perez and Wicked could be decent films if they weren't musicals. The Substance was disappointing.

    Genuinely surprised by Anora and Nickel Boys as I wasn't interested in them before seeing them.

    I'm a regular dune reader, and enjoyed part 1. But part was pretty lame, sadly.

    Yeah, I thought Dune Part 2 would be much higher but it was pretty disappointing. The editing was a bit fucked which annoyed me.

    IMDB Trivia: "Despite the title "One Million Babes BC" no babes appear in the film."
    ... maybe I skip this one.

    @MN5 I checked IMDB to see if the rating for the new Snow White was that bad. It's actually worse.

    @antipodean I would advise not reading the 10/10 reviews if you have a weak stomach.

    Back on the Arnie theme. Tried to watch Sabotage from 2014. Holy shjt that is bad. Like The Room bad in terms of acting and writing. God awful.

    Old Henry

    Netflix film set in the wild west.

    A fella called Henry lives on an isolated farm with his son, Wyatt, when trouble comes to thier doorstep.

    Pretty decent movie, starts slowly but otherwise moves along at a good pace.

    3.5 pretend sheriffs out of 5 oh, so that's who he is

    im a big legend of zelda fan....but im really cautious

    my biggest concern is the defining feature for zelda games in my mind is the element based dungeons, at least 3 (fire, water forest) but often more.....and one movie doesnt do them justice....maybe 20 min each or something if we need world building at the start and then a climax at the end....but a 3-6 movie franchise probably wont work....a limited series 5-6 hours long episodes

    the do need to have the courage for him not to speak...as soon as he speaks all the zelda fans are going to be "thats not my Link"

    Lights Out

    Frank Grillo is a cool dude but he plays the same character in everything I've seen and stars in some pretty shit movies. This isn't an exception.

    Some fun and kinda silly fight scenes and the chick that he moves in with has terrific cans.

    Other than that probably one to avoid unless you're extremely bored.

    2.15 real life MMA fighters out of 5 generic action crap movies

    @Kiwiwomble Have there been any successful video game adaptation movies? Genuinely asking.

    First couple of Resident Evils were good. The rest shit.

    Silent Hill was good

    Last of Us is outstanding although it’s a TV show……

    That’s probably it
