I was forced to watch Legally Blonde the other night and believe it or not it was a pretty decent comedy.

First one is quite good, I was forced then to watch the second one, probably better to poke your own eyes out, awful shit

Thanks for the warning - I was kinda thinking 'Is there a sequel?'.

Baltimore. A film about some of Rose Dugdale's life. Pretty interesting and something I must say I didn't know a whole lot about. The film is a little artsy at times and that can slow it a little.

I think there's a recent book on her.

Great story. Made for a book/film. 

Maybe the film came from that?

Dune 2 wasn't anything special, especially given the length.

Given the length? Not special?

You can get help with that!
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Yes, that was my take on it as well. Thought Pt1 was slow paced, Pt 2 exactly the same. Pt 3 is in the pipeline. Should have made it an epic 10 pt series and saved us the wait.

You can get help with that!

What type of help?

Big budget epic that looks good and has a stellar cast, but the plot was pretty unoriginal, it was drawn out and even the action scenes were pretty run of the mill too.

The plot is the original. Everything else was just filmed first.
Doc would listen to any kind of nonsense and change it for you to a kind of wisdom.

From a movie perspective, the plot is not original though.

Go on and say it has copied Star Wars so we can tell you that Dune predates Star Wars by at least 10 years.

I watched Lincoln after I saw JFK. Terrible hammy writing at the end, assassinating a president like that! Been done years ago!

Just out of the cinema there after watching the Amy Winehouse film. You know what you are getting with these music biographies but it was very enjoyable. A tortured soul with an abundance of talent. Sad.

Was underwhelmed by Dune 2 tbh.
Thought Dune 1 was better
