Seen Moana recently and its one of the best cartoons ive seen in a long time 9/10 for me.

Passengers was good solid entertaining movie I thought, 7.5/10

Arrival is 9.5/10 for me, brilliant original sci-fi

Hunt for the Wilderpeople is 9.5/10 excellent and hilarious

Agree about arrival. I thought it was great.  Very original.

Really looking forward to Trainspotting 2 in a way I have never done for any other film. Meeting of Begby and Renton will  be interesting I would think.

Saw Passengers at the weekend. Top notch. Great story and mostly good physics too, despite a few little bloopers.

Went and seen 'Split' at the weekend, really good movie, no bother recommending it

The oscar nominations are in ...

Arrival -9/10
Fences -9/10
Hell or high water 9/10
Hackshaw ridge 8/10
Hidden figures 8/10
Lion (I haven't seen it yet )
La la land 7.5/10
Moonlight 8/10
Manchester by the sea 8/10

All v different films no big stand outs for me this year, but I'd go with fences and Denzil for actor win.
Not nominated but I really enjoyed 'Jackie'..

And congratulations to Ruth negga on her leading actress nomination.. she's come a long way from love/hate.
I'm trying to decide on a really meaningful message..

Went to see La La Land and was seriously underwhelmed. Couldn't recommend it to anyone. If Mamma Mia (6.5) was a pleasant singalong with a large dollop of feelgood factor this claptrap is a 4 at best and possibly that is being generous.

Hard to know what to really expect from it, it wasn't the worst I've seen.

Ties Titanic with 14 oscar nominations

2016 was a particularly poor year for movies i think, im hoping for big things from Trainspotting to try and turn things around for 2017.

I was disappointed with Arrival. I can't understand all the fuss, Oscar nomination, 8.3 IMDB score etc. Totally forgettable, muddled, no tension, unsympathetic characters and I didn't care (or understand) what happened.

I enjoyed Moana too. My two young kids are obsessed! Some very good songs in it as well from yer man who wrote and starred in Hamilton.

Animated movies, especially from Disney, have really improved following the success of Toy Story, Shrek etc., and not just in terms of graphics. Stories work much better on both adult and child levels.

Watched Supersonic last night. I thought it very interesting.  The 2 brothers are obviously cockheads but for some reason i enjoy listening to their shite talk.

Was very suprised at the amount of video footage of them from the early years of Oasis.
