Creation Stories was pretty good. Not amazing and I felt it was a bit of an opportunity lost, but a decent effort. Ewen Bremner was good, as Alan McGee and the soundtrack was quality. 

I like to pop into the main board, every now and again, to remind myself why I only bother with Off Topic. 

The Dean Smith thread is a bin fire. 

Yeah, that Loki trailer looks all kinds of great. 

This week’s episode was the best in a long, long time. 

@theboyangel @AVFCDAN I’m with you on the Flight Attendant. 

The wife picked it and I only agreed because I thought I could get through it by just staring at KC, but it’s actually really good! 

I enjoyed Godzilla V Kong. 
 

Looked amazing, rattled along at breakneck pace and gets an extra mark or two for coming in under the 2hr mark. All killer, no filler.

Nobody is being forced to go to a nightclub or pop concert. That's a conscious decision.  No one has to have the passport. 

This is a very fair point. 
 

If it’s for certain things (like concerts, football etc), people have the choice. Either get your passport and go, or don’t. 
 

I’m not for the vaccine or the passport being mandatory. If people choose not have one, that’s fine, but if some places want to say, you can only come here if you have had the vaccine and have proof, I think that’s a good idea.

I hate that expression 'anti vaxxers' becaude someone is scared of having a vaccine why is that person a antivaxxer? Another way to have the media to have people turn on each other

I’m talking about the type of people that think Bill Gates is injecting us with microchips. The type of people that say ‘plandemic’ and think it’s some kind of ‘great reset’, or whatever nonsense they are peddling this week.

Being concerned/scared is human nature. I felt the same to a certain extent, but I trust the science and the scientists involved.

Godfather of Harlem really is some exceptional TV.

Me too, doesn't mean I want to throw away my civil liberties just on the off chance I might avoid them

That’s fair enough. I don’t really see it as giving away my liberties, but understand why others do.

I've got news for you, the Tory whoppers will mostly be vaccinated and pretty much most of them will be OK with a Vaccine Passport. The pubs will actually be full of Tory Whoppers

I think you're confusing you're right wingers here. The Ring wing anti-vaxxers tend to be full on Nazis in the main and they have this unnatural and equal numbered alliance with new age hippies.

The scope of this goes beyond caring about those two minor subsets of the human race

 

Possibly, but from what I’ve seen, those against the vaccine and the passport are, in the main, exactly the type of people I’m more than happy to avoid. Just my view, for better or worse. 

Completely selfishly, I am all for the passport. 

I have a profound hatred for ‘KBF’ idiots and anti-vaxxers. I also find a lot of these types are Tories/right wing, voted Brexit and don’t like foreigners (note: I said ‘a lot’, not ‘all’). So, if it means I can go to places and those kind of pricks won’t be there, then I’m all in. Sorry, not sorry.

Watched War Dogs at the weekend, was a decent film I thought. Based on a true story although some bits were added for effect. Crazy that the Pentagon procurement system allowed two stoners to bid for large military contracts. Wish I’d know about it back when I too was a young stoner. 

It fizzles out towards the end, but for an hour, that film is fantastic.

She sounds just like an older version of the racist tram girl from about 10 years ago. Incredible to think that people like this still actually exist

Problem is, they aren’t in small numbers. There are millions of them. I bet we all know a few too, whether they be this openly brazen about it, or  just behind closed doors. 

Namor, Professor X and Mr Fantastic, all rumoured to be in Doctor Strange 2.

What network is the Synder cut on?

Sky Cinema.

anyone seen Snyder cut yet?

worth DL big file to view?

cheers all.

I haven’t watched it yet, but am planning to over the weekend. 

I’d just go for it and make your own mind up. 

User reviews are hugely positive, critics are mixed. Most seem to say it’s better than the original at least. 

Lot’s of people had already made their mind up, before it was released anyway.

Just started The Godfather of Harlem staring Forrest Whitaker. 2 episodes in and its great. Loads of good actors faces I've seen before and plenty violence. Fully recommended 8/10 WB.

Watched the first episode last night. Brilliant. 

What a cast! Nigel Thatch is brilliant as Malcolm X 

What I didn’t realise is, it’s actually a prequel to the 2007 film - American Gangster.

Anyone else feel tired after having theirs? Got a headache which is normal but also feel sleepy, so a nap is needed haha. 

AZ jab knocked me about for 24 hours. Fine the day I had it, not fine the day after, fine again the day after that! 

It was like having the aches from a bad cold, nothing major. 

Grandpa Joe’s stimulus cheques start arriving this weekend. Could be a fun week. 

Crypto already on the move, Bitcoin above 60k. 

I had it again for lunch today. Bloody lovely.

Yeah you’re right. They were offering a 3 month trial as an add-on and I’ve got that, so it just shows up with all the Prime programmes.
