General Movie Discussion Thread

Also depends on if you want to know the story of the stones

In short, just watch them all

[Fenice]

Watch them all and thank us after.

[Jedi]

Thanks for the replies, i knew i would get a good answer here. I will definitely watch the ones that are crucial to the story and i may give the other ones a shot too.

How many of the marvel ones have you seen so far?

I've seen a few i think.

I remember watching the original Ironman. I liked that one. I think I've seen the first Avengers movie too and i thought it was ok.

I've seen parts of the the first Thor and Captain America, also parts of Black Panther. Thought all 3 were snoozefests.

[Va-Va-Voom]

First Thor is good, 2nd one is tragic.

Iron Man is easily the best franchise Marvel has produced, the first two are brilliant.

Black Panther is the most overhyped movie of recent times

First Avengers is great

Wouldn't watch Captain America, such a dead character - but if you need to watch it in order to understand the Avengers then I would.

[Fenice]

Winter Soldier is an outstanding movie end of, forget about “comic book” movie. Also tragic is a bit much. DC movies are tragic, anything Marvel is good at worst.

[Va-Va-Voom]

2nd one is tragic regardless of who made it, especially compared to the first.

[Fenice]

Just can’t get along with movies... football you’re a gem. Movies, days behind you it’d seem.

[Ach]

Winter soldier when it came out was the film of our generation.

Civil war which people forget is also a Captain America film was the GOAT film.

Then came infinity war

Dr. Strangelove might be my favorite film ever.

But you get brownie points for mentioning Housebound.

A few cabbie questions

Is it better to work the taxi ranks at the big stations or just drive about?

Is it worth working for the enhanced rates over Christmas or do you not bother?

And lastly do you like doing the longer trips like Heathrow or are they more hassle than they're worth?
