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!

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.

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.

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

Civil War is pretty good. Has some hard hitting scenes. Hard to imagine them making a film about half of America hating the president before the Trump era.

It's definitely worth a watch. 7/10

Do/did half of America really hate Trump? Or  do the media just  like to portray that's the case to get  rid of him/stop him getting  in again?

In any case , a lot of America don't seem to like  Genocide Joe either., especially since  his support for all things  Israel

Yes, Trump failing to win 50% of the vote in two successive elections is merely a media narrative.
