Don't really care tbh. Just find it amusing how people who don't like movies much need to comment.

I enjoy marvel. Others love brokeback type films. Good for them

Second one not as good but enjoyable. Kept singing take me home country road tbh

Seen a few bond films from Connery to Moore to latest ones. Can't remember names of any but if you've seen one, You've seen them all


True, a bit like superhero flicks in that regard.

Not seen infinity war then?

Not a movie fan?

Fair enough. Movies aren't for everyone.

8.5/10


The one at Glastonbury? What was so educational about it?

Love the Kingsman movies though—super ridiculous but hella fun.


It's the epitome of satire. Remember these movies are a subversion of James Bond/spy movie cliches. That scene essentially points out how f***ked up the 'Bond girl' trope is. Starting with the scene where he's explaining the situation to his girlfriend, then the fact that they're playing the 'epic' main theme music at full volume while zooming in on a woman's vagina. Usually the music is used for action scenes where the main character is accomplishing the mission. Now it's used where the main character is accomplishing the mission by sticking his finger inside a woman. Which is stupid. Which is what they're trying to say about the bond girl trope. Both the plot device about the tracker and the bond girl trope are both just terrible excuses to show some smut, the difference being that Kingsman is self-aware and also avoids the misogyny.

Most importantly, they do this while maintaining the humour. The scene is still funny even though it's actually jarring to watch (idk about you guys, but when the camera carried on following Eggsy's hand I was really surprised until the music picked up and burst out laughing).


Fair enough. I was confused thinking you just meant Eggsy/Galahad/whatever his name is now getting to third base and then backing out :hiding:

Infinity War

Still don't understand the hype over MCU movies. I get they're geared toward families and are also hugely successful at the box office, but they're corny af.

OTOH, R-rated non-MCU Marvel character movies like Deadpool 1 & 2 and Logan are fantastic, and I'm looking forward to Venom in October.

Not a huge fan of Godfather 2, besides De Niro's role as young Don Corleone.

One of the all time great performances imo.
